Take Action
This week’s theme explores the power of action. And today, we’re encouraged to take some form of action involving change…upping our game on the status quo. It may feel like we’re comfortable with where we are right not but if we were to be truly honest with ourselves (see postings from week 2), are we really?…comfortable, I mean?
For example, I recently made the decision to change how I do my business by redoing my website so that’s more in alignment with how I want to be seen in the world. A month ago the guy I’m hiring to the job gave me a list of information he needs from me in order to start. I figure I have plenty of time. Thankfully for two of those weeks, he was on vacation…so that gave me a bit of a reprieve. Now he’s back and I have yet to do anything that would allow him to proceed.
If you haven’t figured it out yet, I’ve been procrastinating…essentially, I’m letting fear hold me back. Every form of intuition and insight I’ve tapped into tells me that I just have to step over the start line. The left foot is already up and about to land on the front side of the start line. The right foot is weighted down behind the line. All I need do is shift my weight forward to land on the left so I can release the right.
With today’s puzzle piece, I’m declaring right here right now, as soon as I post this, I’ll take not one but two small steps forward (put down the “left”, and lift up the “right”)…and then allow momentum to send me on my merry way.
How about you? What’s something you’ve been allowing yourself to feel falsely comfortable with that could do with a little action-step forward? Do it!
BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day
Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.
Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.
Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.
