Sometimes your mind just runs on when you really wish it wouldn't.

There are all sorts of ways to put a leash on your mind, to bring it back under control, to find quiet inside yourself, but some days those ways just don't work.

Tomorrow morning there will be a solar eclipse taking place and while it will be visible in only a small swath of the world, the energy of it has preceded it and will follow it, affecting all of us to some degree. A mind on overdrive is just one sign that the celestial energies may be affecting you.

Then again, the moon went void of course overnight and won't be back till around 1:30 (EST) this afternoon. That doesn't help.

The best approach to living with yourself may be to find some totally engaging task and dive into it. Lost in a complex process, your mind won't have the time to bother you.

Get to work!
