As a Virgo and as a soul correction ‘Forget Thyself’ there has been one pattern that has and still holds me back for decades: I’ve wanted things to be neat, elegant, fast… and I’ve had very little room for messy, inelegant, and slow.

Neat, elegant and fast are against Nature, against Life. Nature, Life are neither neat, nor elegant, and when it’s fast… it’s always a tragedy of some sort, like a volcanic eruption or a tsunami, not what you pray for.

Killing.

So it’s taken me all I’ve got to tame and temper my inclination for neat and elegant and fast… so I can be in harmony with how Life likes to do things, not how the Virgo/Forget Thyself persona likes it.

Forget Thyself is, numerically, 34. I have two students who have the same soul correction.

One leans more towards the fast and elegant, the other leans more towards the neat.

Neither can be successful if they insist on that. Bummer, eh?

Being in harmony with how Life works is mandatory if you want to arrive to your destination.
