There’s an easy flow to the day, giving us a break from the usual rush so we can stop and refill our cup. Rather than forcing our way through our goals or the tasks at hand, we’re encouraged to take a more easygoing approach. However, with our words and thoughts taking on a more passionate and enthusiastic tone, it might be hard to relax as we find ourselves eager to show off our skills or jump into the next exciting project or conversation. If we’re hoping to get a creative project off the ground, it’s a great day for it.
