Taurus, week of 1/5
This is very suitable to what is going on in my life. I already intend to cultivate high-minded yearnings, and hopefully have already been on that track for several months now.
Don't be afraid to work on manifesting that dream castle you have always wanted to built. Lets all work on making our dreams a reality!

Some religious traditions preach the doctrine that desire is a major obstacle to enlightenment. To escape from the predicament of your suffering, they insist, you must overcome all of your yearning. But Tantric scholar Daniel Odier believes this dogma is a delusion. In his book Desire: The Tantric Path to Awakening, he says desire should be at the heart of spiritual practice. Not all longings are equally sacred, of course: Fantasies about winning the lottery or seeing an adversary punished are not on a par with wanting to expand your capacity to bestow blessings and give love. In 2006, Taurus, consider the possibility that Odier is right. Try out the hypothesis that the most spiritual thing you can do is cultivate high-minded yearnings.
