 [Aug 18 LA7.42pm, 10:42pm NY,, PARIS Aug 19 4:42am, SYD Aug 19 12:42pm]: 

FAKE IT TIL YOU MAKE IT: confidently moving in new directions knowing doors will open simply for the effort of heading towards them. Realizing that anyone who ever became big or famous or successful or Admired or Adored for Anything, did so not simply because of what they Did or Created, but because they Made the Effort to Show up and Stand up despite the gnawing butterflies in their stomach, or “imposter syndrome” or feelings they may Fail, Fluff it up or be made a Fool. They gave something a Go. That came first, before any talent or special skill. THAT SKILL - being willing to be bold enough to Fake Confidence in Yourself (if need be - even those think they are Greatest, still have some doubts and weak moments). 

For ultimately, If you don’t try you’ll never know if you don’t get up and go. Failure comes from playing it safe, being scared of rejection, not getting into the game or signing up or PARTICIPATING

This is the GIVE OF YOURSELF New Moon: Faking it til you make it, actually works wonders now. Authentically feeling how you feel but making it more of a Grand Performance actually allows you, like an actor or model, to try on “new clothes”, a change of outfit / attitude/way of behaving which encourages the activation of THAT energy. Visualizing running a race has been proved to activate the same parts of the brain as the actual real event. Fool yourself into a more Confident, Poised, Capable You.

Bravely moving forward like a Lion, even while cowering like a mouse inside - [and the cheese, by the way now lies down tunnels and behind doors  you haven’t yet visited] exhibiting behavior you may not be used to fully asserting and embodying.

Prepare to be an Actor/Performer during this two week period. Bold spirits + bold mindsets + bold moves = brilliant results. Deciding to have fun with this, even if it’s awkward or icky. Make everything a playful experience, no matter how troubling or trying. Like you’re cast in a pilot TV show it’s BIG and you have to be seen and heard. Good things come now to those who have the nerve/audacity/ego bravado to Give It A Go. 

Fall. Trip up. Celebrities have tripped on the red carpet. So. Get back up. Falter. Shoulders back, head up and Go again. This next two weeks: Be undeterred by any critic or compliant or hater. (Even if privately your heat breaks or you feel so distraught, dejected, despairing or depressed. Feel it. Allow it. Journal it maybe) but Then go blow a kiss in the mirror, wink, put your Crown on and go Show Up again. Look your best. It’s amazing how just that helps shift your entire attitude.

Great ideas, are just ideas. You have to act on them. You have to act important enough now and think well enough of yourself to aim for better for yourself. 

Show that you are Quality and willing to Rise to the Challenge. 

Armor on. Brave Lion Heart activated.

Prepare for some yucky feelings, but ignore everything like a true Performer. The show must go on.

This New Moon ACTIVELY REWARDS heart-centered efforts. So give without fear. Whether you get a boo, a thumbs down or silence - or a two page spread detailing how awful you were, Face the Cameras and Smile, as proof you had the Audacity and Courage and “star power” to have been there at all. 

Rewards and results may not come from this, (although they very, very well may) but efforts made now somehow cosmically end up bringing POWERFUL RESULTS.

Put yourself to the Test and you automatically pass the actual test - which was actually putting yourself to the test. 

Life is for Living. 

Stop waiting around and GIVE MORE OF YOURSELF, to your life for life to Give more back to you.
