“Balance of Sacrifice & Generosity”

You will soon have an encounter where you may feel honor bound to help someone out. Since Vishnu & Parvati were brother & sister, this may involve trusted siblings (or similar type of relationship) who value & love each other very much. Often reaching out to the other when support is needed or when either is feeling unbalanced or depressed. However, there’s a question of fair give & take– Perhaps over giving out of duty or guilt to the detriment of yourself. The wheel indicates there’s a past pattern of you providing “generosity of spirit” to this person time & time again. Gebo warns if the exchange or gift is not reciprocated, your energy will be drawn. Concentrate on giving kindness to those who value & appreciate it. Whenever there’s an exchange of energies, time or resources, there needs to be an appreciation of boundaries as well as gratitude. Sometimes, you just don’t have it to give because that energy is needed elsewhere. One has to make peace with oneself and restore before turning outward to focus on friends or family. Paravati means mountain so if you promised yourself you wouldn’t be roped into over sacrificing yourself to a needy family member (yet again) stay strong & true to you. Resentment is the disastrous result of one party not respecting the limitations of the other. It also occurs when the  altruistic party fails to bring awareness of having boundaries encroached upon. Know & respect your limits & do yourself a kindness by making sure they know them too.  It’s unnecessary to feel guilt for saying “NO” if it diverts you from your path or drains time from your priorities.  That said, watch for selfishness because you may be the only support they have right now. You should try and see things from their point of view since they may be experiencing feelings of isolation, anger & helplessness. Confidence may be an issue so you may have to encourage them to pull themselves together & fight for their best interest. Build them up a bit by reminding them of their winning assets or hidden talents.  While giving what you can, provide a message of love, support & healing for this brother or male family member by focusing on their strengths. One of your best traits, is finding the bright spot in the situation & reminding people of their best attributes, so lead with that.
