He\u2019s someone we see periodically at the park, so we stopped and asked if he had broken his foot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYup. Playing basketball.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rob said, \u201cIt\u2019s a bitch. I broke my foot last year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once we were in the car, I remarked, \u201cI think you broke your foot in 2009, in June.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat? Are you sure?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll check the blog.\u201d So when we got home, I did check and the post on <a href=\"https:\/\/themysticalunderground.com\/?p=158\">Rob\u2019s left foot <\/a>went up on June 25, 2009.<\/p>\n<p>The next day at Rob\u2019s yoga class, I noticed that the woman next to me, Rose, had something wrapped\u00a0 around her left foot. After class, I asked her what had happened. She said it was related to a bunion and that her orthopedic guy wanted to remove it. \u201cBut years ago, I was married to an orthopedic surgeon and I learned that if at all possible, you should stay away from surgery on your back and your feet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you a Pisces?\u201d I asked her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo, a Virgo. Why?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, Pisces rules the feet, which means that part of the body is vulnerable for people of that sun sign or for individuals who have a Pisces moon or rising.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rose didn\u2019t know anything about her natal chart, so the conversation ended there. But when we were in the car, I started thinking about Megan the Virgo with Pisces rising and remembered how she has always enjoyed having her feet rubbed. Then I realized that twice in the last fourteen hours, I had paid attention to feet, not something that usually registers for me. I had conversed with people I hardly know who have problems with their feet. Then I forgot about it until around one Saturday morning, when Megan called, sobbing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMom, I\u2019m on my way to ER. I think I broke my foot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Saturday afternoon, she had been sailing with some other kids. Her legs were dangling over the side of the sailboat when another sailboat came alongside and slammed into the sailboat she was on. Her left foot got caught between the two boats.<\/p>\n<p>So Sunday morning, I drove across the state. \u00a0Megan was on crutches, in a lot of pain, and couldn\u2019t keep anything down because she was ill from the codeine they\u2019d given her for pain at the ER. We checked into a hotel and she slept for a few hours, then finally had a bite to eat. Yesterday\u00a0 morning, we got in to see an orthopedic doc.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, her foot was broken \u2013 a metatarsal bone near the fourth toe. Her foot is still so swollen, though, that he recommended a heavily padded splint for a week, then a cast for a few weeks, then a boot. This means Megan will be graduating from college on crutches.<\/p>\n<p>So, the signs were there, but I couldn\u2019t read them. Maybe that\u2019s the trickster part of some synchronicities. <em>Hey, here\u2019re the clues, you piece them together and make the appropriate warnings. <\/em> There were two references to foot problems in a period of fourteen hours, one of those references from a <em>Virgo<\/em> having problems with her <em>left<\/em> foot. Symbolically, the break seems to be related to Megan\u2019s feelings about graduating. As she put it, the only thing she has known since she was five years old is school. Now she\u2019s going to graduate \u2013 and what happens then?<\/p>\n<p>Our feet carry us forward in life. The left foot is ruled by the right brain, that part of the brain associated with creativity.\u00a0 The break may be associated with a break from what she has known all these years \u2013 school \u2013 and a\u00a0 whole new chapter opening for her. Then again, that may be too simple. There are undoubtedly other underlying issues that she keeps to herself.<\/p>\n<p>But on the drive across the state, one phrase kept repeating itself in my head: <em>pay attention to what you pay attention to. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the evening of Friday, April 29, we were leaving the dog park and saw a young man hobbling in on crutches, with a boot on his foot, his dog darting along ahead of him.
