Color

Hello friends,
we didn't practice this morning, because it's a moon day. We take a rest day on the full and new moons each month because of the way they affect our energy. If you want to know more read this: http://www.ashtangayogacenter.com/moon.html, but it may all be Greek to you.
I've been going through financial aid info for school. It's not as daunting as I originally thought, but after spending 6 months not reading anything that really required my attention, I'm finding it slow going.
I'm going to talk to my potential Nashville roommate on the phone this weekend. I hope it works out. I have a good feeling about it.
The astrologer told me to stop wearing dark colors because they make me contract, whereas light colors will make me expand. I've been thinking about it. Most of my wardrobe is black. I think I've been wearing black to hide myself to some extent. I'm sure some of it has to do with body image--black is slimming, after all. I'm thinking it's time to embrace brighter colors and white.
My neck still hurts, but is feeling much better. I'm still waging a war of attrition on the muscles in my hips. They will yield just like the French! It's only matter of time...
Hugs,
Lauren
