Opression

Todays word... oppression:
op·pres·sion
noun
prolonged cruel or unjust treatment or control.

I was thinking that since we are all part of the same existence in time, working separately (together), what is the oppression we are putting forth in our own lives, or the lives of others? What does oppression mean to you? Is it about people being held prisoner out of fear? What kind of fear generates it? Or could it be thinking that only toast is what you can eat for breakfast? How deep or how shallow is oppression?

This is cool.. :)

Governed by the element of fire. Notice the spark within each semi-circular glow dome around the barrier, and the large seed that is planted firmly into the base. This symbolizes the ability to remain focused and steadfast, as well as fully energized and ready to move up and outward into your own freedom.

This mandala carries the spirit of the horse. He brings his boundless energy, his dedication to the taks at hand, yet a beautiful strength and sense of freedom. He reminds us to look as though we move freely, but truly only move with intention.

If you are contemplating upon this madala, your spirit may be asking you to take action, build your momentum. The seeds you've sown are now in need of extra nurturing from other elements, in order for you to move forward and maintain your inner drive and ambition. Know that your burning desires are rapidly approaching, but you will only get out what you put in.
