The month of November calls for implementation.
A good time to work with others and to put into practical application all that may have transpired in the previous month.
Discipline, effort, management, organization would be the key words.
It’s all about the group, the team, the collective. This is where the focus would tend to be during this month.
Mid month sees monetary and relationship matters moving forward. This would be related to those incidents and circumstances that needed to be reviewed and addressed in the last two months.
At the same time, communication related affairs would need to be reworked or revised in some way as the situation demands.
The predominant vibration, in this month of November, calls for working together in unison and harmony. In this way, a firm foundation may be laid, that would withstand the test of time.
THE MIND OF LOVING KINDNESS –
The Buddha says:-
“Monks, there are these five courses of speech that others may use when they address you: their speech may be timely or untimely, true or untrue, gentle or harsh, connected with good or with harm, spoken with a mind of loving-kindness or in a mood of hate. When others address you, their speech may be timely or untimely; when others address you, their speech may be true or untrue; when others address you, their speech may be gentle or harsh; when others address you, their speech may be connected with good or with harm; when others address you, their speech may be spoken with a mind of loving-kindness or in a mood of hate. Herein, monks, you should train thus: ‘Our minds will remain unaffected, and we shall utter no bitter words; we shall abide compassionate for their welfare, with a mind of loving-kindness, never in a mood of hate. We shall abide pervading that person with a mind imbued with loving-kindness, abundant, exalted, immeasurable, without hostility, and without ill will.’ That is how you should train….
(In the Buddha’s Words – from MN 21: Kakacupama Sutta; 1126-27,129)
