Habitual patterns of connecting with others may become impediments to harmony as you may face the fact that whom or what you assumed as a supportive influence may no longer play that role. Often this is because the security you believed was there had no firm basis, which you likely see now. Having the reliability of your personal life called into question effectively can make you more self-sufficient and less dependent on others for their support. While those friends that are solid likely will remain so, you may find that you spend more time by yourself now. Sometimes it can seem you are alone even when you are with others. However, the purpose of this interval is not to cut you off from life but to reconnect you by recognizing the sentiments that truly are important and those that are not.

You may resist accepting the limitations that often surround you now. Family issues may arise that reopen old wounds or restate old patterns and can frustrate and obligate you in unwanted ways. Your home may require attention, which may divert your resources from other areas. Even in your daily life, you can encounter obstacles, which disrupt the smooth flow that you previously experienced. While any of these may seem like restrictions, they can serve to focus you on the significant matters of your life, matters that you may have neglected. By applying yourself to the task at hand and that task only you can do a better job than if you scatter yourself, and you can come to terms with the meaning of whatever seems an interference.
