Positive Qualities: Auspicious & Fitting

We change the outcome of our future through the choices we make in each moment of the present. — The Dead Sea Scrolls (ca 100 AD)

Is it Fitting that any of us call ourselves Auspicious? I have read that progress is the watchword of the universe. We will always be moving from our current accomplishments, our present state of completion, to a greater state of being. Some of the keys to such growth is in the definitions and derivations of this interesting word symbol.

Peace,
