Doesn't time fly when you are enjoying yourself? And doesn't it drag when you aren't? Time also seems to speed up when we want it to slow down - and to ramble when we wish it would rush. Can we conclude that time is not on our side? Time, ultimately, is an illusion. We treat it with too much reverence. We give it power because we all agree to pretend that it is real. We do something similar with money. In your spirit, though, you know something that matters far more. So, trust that.
Having gone through a complex list of options, we finally realise that 'all that's needed is this, or that'. It is usually so obvious that, once we've seen it, we can't imagine how we ever missed it.The script is being rewritten. The story of a key involvement is being retold. How things were, is no longer how things are. How things will be, it's clear, is different again. Make sure you are not reading the old notes. That could put you at a big disadvantage. It could even turn back the clock and cause you to return to a situation you have only recently escaped. Even if you think you recognise some of the clues and cues that you are now being given, you may yet find they mean something delightfully different.
Draw a deep breath. In fact, draw another one. They are free, after all. And anyway, breaths don't just keep us alive - they keep us calm and clear when we concentrate on them. Why might you need such assistance? Well, I am sure you have your own list of reasons - but these are all symptoms, not causes. The true culprit is cosmic. You are under great pressure. You can no longer avoid a difficult decision. Events, though, are about to solve pressing emotional problems for you - neatly... and nicely.You can't walk backwards into the future. Nor can you keep casting your eyes over your shoulder. This act will cause you to stumble or, worse, it will be taken (by whatever you are so keen to make sure is not following you into the future) as a sign that, somehow, 'it is still wanted'. The tomorrow that you have long promised yourself will come one day is, in fact, here. Or at least, it is if you are prepared to treat it as such and to give it a chance to work its magic, unfettered by old expectations. 
You are not a great believer in doing things by the book. The book was written a long time ago by someone you never met. You do, though, believe in striving to be moral, ethical, honest and fair. Sometimes, it seems that this integrity results in complication. Things that ought to be simple prove tiresome and long-winded because you feel unable to take the same questionable shortcuts that others help themselves to. Now, though, in your emotional life at least, you are about to reap the benefit of behaving so well.
