Today the Universe sent me this message:

Act with faith, Melissa. Prepare the way for your inevitable success. To the degree you can, behave as if your dreams have already come true, as if you already owned a good book deal, as if later today you were going to a fabulous six figure book deal.. And you shall see the power you wield as the floodgates begin to tremble, the elements begin to conspire, people in your life begin to change, insights are summoned, comprehensions soar, and clarity is born.

Not to mention fierce, wild animals laying down when you pass by –
The Universe

And my horoscope said this:

Tuesday, May 12th, 2009 — You could become obsessed today with one particular idea that you have about your future. On the other hand, it’s possible for you to become quite fearful of being stuck in your current path and not liking where you end up. Either way, it’s crucial for you to loosen your mental grip so you can regain a healthier perspective.

And I’m sitting here wondering if one has anything to do with the other? If I loosen my mental grip, will I get that 6-figure deal? (or will I just hit the lottery?)

So, consider my mental grip loosened and my perspective healthier. Bring on that book deal.

Love ya, Universe. Mean it!
