Moon on the Lake: A Symbolic Story for Self-Reflection

Story of the Day from Empower Soul Path, Subconscious Symbols.

You are by a lake at night, and the reflection of the moon is shimmering on the water. What do you do?

What would you choose?

A. I touch the water and ripple the reflection
B. I watch the reflection for a long time
C. I look up at the actual moon in the sky

Read the scene once, notice which answer your body leans toward first, and go with that. In symbolic stories every choice carries an image, and the image you reach for can say something about where you are right now. There are no right or wrong answers.

A question to sit with

Are you observing your feelings from within right now, or from a bit of a distance? You can write your answer in a journal, or simply hold the question in mind during the day and notice what comes up.

About symbolic stories

Symbolic stories are short imagined scenes with a single choice. They are a gentle way to reflect on your inner world, your relationships and your patterns through images rather than analysis. They are a lens for reflection, not a personality test or a diagnosis.

The Empower Soul Path app has 90 symbolic stories in 9 languages, a discovery journal that keeps your choices, and a monthly symbol map that shows the themes you return to. Try today’s story here: https://app.empowersoulpath.org/s/moon_lake?lang=en
