I am starting to wonder

9. Sounds like you, like me,

are in this strange edge of a depression. I have the same symptoms as you... the itchiness of skin (which I've tried just passing off as the dry heat in the house), even the strand of hair... tho mine is this long wisp that's flying down the front of my face. I try to trace it back to whichever cat put it there, but, nope... they're innocent. I even had to -make- myself get up and get ready to take my grandson to the movies for his birthday today. Most nights this past week, if I slept at all, it was just an hour or two all night long. If I was lucky, I could go back to sleep for a couple of more hours and keep doing it that way, but I never felt rested.

I wonder if some of us who are experiencing this (and you're not the only one I've heard talk of it the last couple of weeks), are picking up on (warning: "woo woo&quot all the negative vibrations of all the crap that's hitting the world stage right now... and it's just hit a "peak overload" state right now.

I know one of my add-ons was getting a bequeathment from a very dear Shaman friend of mine who's losing his fight to cancer - the power necklace he never took off. That was a big one. A very small one was admitting old age had even my hair thinning (vanity, thy name is woman!). Both were big reminders of mortality for me. Add to them what's going on in Ukraine and what is probably coming, and the idiots trying to kill our own country. Too much death/mortality... both actual and comparative... for my system to process and handle. Took awhile to come to this realization of the links. Hopefully, coming to the realization will help me sleep better, but at this point, I doubt it. I still feel too anxious and jittery.

But maybe you've had something that's been showing up in your world in the same type of way -- if so, maybe chasing it down could help tell you what your mind is trying to say but can't, for whatever reason. Just a shot in the dark. YMMV

And then we have the generational planets doing their dance above our heads. Some days, sleep or no, I just want to stay in bed with covers pulled up tight over my head, cats surrounding me with their purrs!
