This is more a thing for negative signs i think, as positive signs are too busy pursuing their desires to "fall back and surrender." Perhaps a water thing as well. It is amazing becuase if you have that connection to spirit; you know you can trust it
Too much surrender can be bad, it can make someone passive and not help those who need help. Of course, I could be missing some information and context here. IP: Logged |

I've been working on my North Node in Pisces. I just sat yesterday and meditated for 15 minutes, thinking basically nothing!Just surrendered and let go of everything, trying to connect to my higher self. IP: Logged |

Oh yeah, now you made me remember, once I almost died, than afterwards lying on the bed with my hurt hand, I cried, and surrendered. But as I told you, I had forgotten about it, thanks for remembering me!IP: Logged |

"trying to" .... You ARE 'that' already. Just 'drop' or separate-away the things that are NOT. It's the MOST CORE of who you ALREADY 'Be'. Everything else is like shell-coatings, colorings, the 'me' around 'I'. You are a SPIRIT being. There's a part of you that has never left God 'The Creator'. One with God (who is the Great I Am). Walking in this earth-garden. Gaining Experience. BE'ing. You are a spirit, that is clothed with a 'personality'-- The smaller 'i am' -- the 'person' part of you that if I met you walking down a sidewalk, your person would be the one that *i* would have fun and converse with. It's the part of you that has its own sense of identity, separate from you and me. You have sets of likes/dislikes, urges. You respond inside with emotions and interpretations-perceptions (has the smaller 's' soul). Both of those live INSIDE a body-suit. (Like an astronaut.) It's your outfit. It's wired with all you need to sensually experience the earth-world. What a bizarre, odd, and Beautiful mix we are!  So uniquely crafted. Self-propelled, self-willed .. Still clumsy, Growing, and messing it up, all the time!

Yes. I had to hit bottom first though. It was about 30 years ago. I became spiritually awakened.
