The Patterns of Life…

​​March is offering plenty of numerical dates that show repetition. Today is 3/23/23. Earlier this week was a palindrome, 3/20/2023. 

A secret (or maybe not!) about me is that I am a nerd for numbers and patterns. I am intrigued by esoteric like Numerology. And by mathematical things like pi, the Fibonacci Sequence, the Golden Ratio, tessellations, and more.

Repetition of numbers in dates or on the clock speak to me of Patterns.

Patterns are what makes Life.

We see repetition over and over again in patterns. 

Today, how can we flow with the energy of patterns?

When Life keeps showing us repetition and patterns, we can take it as a sign to examine the patterns of our thoughts and behaviors in our own life.

Questions you can meditate on:

What patterns do I see in my own life? 

What patterns do I see in my family? 

in my community? 

in society?

We have empowering patterns that are what allow us to do our work in the world and step out boldly.

And we have patterns of thinking and behavior that hold us back.

Today is a good day to look at your patterns. 

Are there any that need to be celebrated? 

Any that need to be released?

For me:

I left the house at 8:00am today to meet with a new client. We met in her well-appointed office in an old, restored building in town. As I left that meeting an hour later, I felt energized, refreshed, and bold. 

As someone who works from home, mostly on Zoom, I realize that I’ve been in a pattern of not leaving the house. Also, because I work (generally) from 11a to 8p, I tend to my self-care and personal chores in the morning while many people do that in their evenings. Today, it felt good to be up early and working early. 

Starting my work day early as well as getting out of the house early helped me to see that it is time to disrupt a pattern and establish a new one. Spring is a supportive time to usher out the old and welcome in the new!

That will be a refreshing change!
