I wasn't sure where to post this topic so I posted it here simply because it contains a question. Here's the thing I have a real motivational problem, I just don't have a strong drive to do anything. I mean there are things that I WANT to do or that NEED to be done, but i just don't have the drive , energy, or what ever it is, to do it. The only way I can explain the feeling is that is it feels like I'm at a cross road, but insted of choosing a direction i'm just standing in the middle staring blankly at the roads, and it's wrecking my life and ticking me off, but I just can't find a way to get the drive back, so I can motivate myself to do the things that need to be done. My question is does any one have any insight, spells, or potions that could help me out of this situation? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
GMS

Hi there, NeoPheonix (and welcome!)
hmm. . .there's a lot of things that can do that. There are some fatigue syndroms, but something I have experience with a lot is depression. . . it can COMPLETELY give you those feelings and just a lack of drive and energy. You might want to consider that a possibility.
Here's an idea for you:
items needed:
Several scented candles, your favourites.
A body or bath oil, of same scent or something that compliments it.
Several hours alone.
A nice big bathtub.
At least 2 hours with no disturbances. (if you need to schedule this time with family, do so.)
optional: soft soothing music, a little dish of sweets you like, rose petals, anything else you can think of that woudl be nice.
Run a nice warm bath, at a tempurature you would like (the warmer it is, the more relaxed it will make your muscles ^___^). Put the candles in places where they wouldn't be able to fall. Add a generous amount of the scented body/bath oil to the water, perhaps swirl it around a bit. If you are using rose petals, wait until you've finished filling the tub to put them in (you want them to float on top).
Before you climb in, light the candles and turn off the lights. Spend a few moments thinking about the things you'd like to start, or finish. Think a little bit about the things you've been enjoying lately, or if you cannot think of anything, then of the things you look forward to enjoying. Remind yourself that the world can wait for you for a few hours, and yo udont need to do anything at all. Then climb into the bath, (turn on the music if you want) and relax. Just kick back. You don't even NEED to do anything for this short period of time.
If you'd like, you can meditate, imagining the water giving you strength and energy, gaining inner serenity and resolve from the scents, the candle flames, the rose petals (if you used them), the music (if you used music), etc. You can think about your goals, or just think about nothing at all.
Sometimes when things need to be done, or even when we want to do things, we become so stressed that nothing holds life or colour for us anymore. Sometimes we need to just forget about everyone and relax.
whether you're a guy or a girl, it can really really help. And don't listen to people who say that luxurious baths are girly. Everybody enjoys relaxing, ne?

Neo Phoenix. Come to the Astrology forum, maybe we can be of some help. But for now, could you give us your birth data year, month, date, time (specify if daylight time) and place?
