The central theme of this discourse revolves around personal accountability and the growth that arises from introspection. I recount a recent incident involving a group of friends from my college days, wherein a seemingly innocuous comment ignited a moment of self-reflection and subsequent realization of my own fault. Initially, I allowed my emotions to dictate my response, viewing the observation made by a friend as an affront to my character. However, upon further contemplation, I acknowledged that the comments were not meant to belittle but rather to elicit a response during a period of personal upheaval, particularly as I navigated my first House Annual Perfection year. This experience has prompted me to consider profound questions regarding the balance between happiness and material success, a contemplation that I find particularly relevant as I transition into my second House Perfection year, which emphasizes values and security.
Takeaways:
The group of friends I ran with in college remains connected even after three decades.
Admitting when one is wrong is a sign of mental and emotional security and growth.
The comments made by friends can impact one's emotional state, particularly during sensitive times.
Understanding astrological perfection years can provide insight into personal development and growth.
The transition from the first house to the second house perfection year brings new themes to explore.
The relationship between happiness and financial success is a complex and thought-provoking issue.
To begin with, I have a group of friends I ran with in college.
Speaker A:
We all used to meet up for the 2 o' clock session.
Speaker A:
Fast forward 30 years that same group of friends would meet up.
Speaker A:
Now via group text, I had an issue pop up this summer that I took offense with.
Speaker A:
One of the members words went back and forth.
Speaker A:
It's cool now, but under further review, I was the one at fault.
Speaker A:
They say it takes a mentally and emotionally secure person to admit when they are wrong.
Speaker A:
I was wrong and I'm big enough to come on here and say money, Mr. West, you were right, I was wrong.
Speaker A:
I took his words as an insult.
Speaker A:
We already pieced it up, but recent events brought all that back to my attention.
Speaker A:
What was the words that led to the verbal battle?
Speaker A:
I sent a picture of myself to the group who I forgot likes to tell jokes.
Speaker A:
I really wasn't in a joking space at the time.
Speaker A:
He said, you look like you checked out and you're off the grid somewhere.
Speaker A:
Yes, I know you may be thinking that's nothing to get upset over, right?
Speaker A:
Well, when you own a first House Annual Perfection year, you may understand why I got upset.
Speaker A:
To understand, you need to know what Perfections year is.
Speaker A:
The simple definition is an annual advancing.
Speaker A:
From the day you're born, you advance or progress every year.
Speaker A:
How are you handling that advancement?
Speaker A:
That's another story.
Speaker A:
Your son progresses one degree a year while that is taking place.
Speaker A:
The topics or houses of your life advance one house or sign as well.
Speaker A:
Just knowing someone's age, you could know a general topic or theme for that person that year.
Speaker A:
At the time of the comment, I was on the first House Perfection year.
Speaker A:
The first house is the I Am house, the house of the self.
Speaker A:
I was in rebuild mode while someone was throwing stones from the nosebleed seats at my glass house.
Speaker A:
I took his comments like I said fuck it, I give up.
Speaker A:
Which I didn't.
Speaker A:
I actually got to work.
Speaker A:
I have to admit, the picture did appear as if I had been on a mountain chilling in a cave for a few weeks.
Speaker A:
I did go into a cave.
Speaker A:
Not physically, but during the beginning of COVID I sat in my cave at home working.
Speaker A:
I even told you guys about it on episode 12, level up.
Speaker A:
I said on that episode you should use this time to level yourself up to be in a different space coming out of COVID It may not look pretty, hence the comments, but if done right can lead to shocking results.
Speaker A:
My first house year is over now.
Speaker A:
And now I've moved on to the second house Perfection year.
Speaker A:
The second house in astrology covers the topics of values and security systems.
Speaker A:
Those topics will come to the forefront for me this current year.
Speaker A:
Two other comments were made to me this week which left me pondering for days.
Speaker A:
The first comment was made by a millionaire who looked at me and said, the reason you're not a millionaire is because you chose happiness.
Speaker A:
This was a profound statement to me.
Speaker A:
Left me thinking for days.
Speaker A:
Is it possible to have money and happiness at the same time?
