Hello and Welcome.

For those of you who follow how the stars in the heavens affect your inner pulsations and energies, this is a difficult time with Uranus and Pluto in a direct square.  Often this results in a flash of change through a flash of catastrophe  or a flash of insight like an Aha experience.  This is like the Tower card in the Tarot.

What is useful to remember is that following the Tower is the The star which is all about renewal.

First destruction or revolution and then rebuilding anew… stronger, better, with more clarity.

This process has been ongoing for a year now with two previous meetings of these planets coinciding with challenging events in our society and culture and there are four more to go over the next two years… this process is necessary; like forest fires bringing new growth and prosperity in nature, so can these traumatic and insightful shifts offer opportunities for growth and change to your societal and personal structures.

I have been in a process of deep renewal that has felt like living within the Tower card for the last two and a half months.  It has been a powerful experience to see through the fear, difficulty, and challenges to identify the irrepressible  seeds of new growth in my core self.  This process has brought to me a revolution of my core being…. how I respond to the pressures of society, group expectations, my perceived internalized values, and my personal needs; how I view my place in the world; what I perceive to be my core strengths and my core limitations; and what is the focus of my life-soul-plan.  For me, this has been a mix of  painful release, letting go – like a weeding out of misbeliefs and mis-directed strategies and a healing attraction, health promoting, and strengthening of my true authentic self and inspiration.  I have been living through the energies of a mix of the Tower and the Star – destruction and renewal.

If you have been experiencing this too, then you are aware that to move through this process with the least amount of pain and the highest degree of renewal:  What matters is how you respond to the catastrophe or insight.

The process of meditation, and mindfulness can guide you.  Accepting truth while simultaneously letting go of misbeliefs takes a willingness to focus your mindful attention and observation upon yourself.

That which causes you fear may be the key.

Make an effort to understand whether the fear is something dangerous that you must fight against or a sense of not knowing, a sense of something unfamiliar that may indeed portend a cleansing away of debris and inauthenticity and a deeper connection to your true self.

Be kind to yourself, kind and loving.  Embrace the change, go with the flow, see the beauty and the gifts in the shifting internal landscape.  This will offer you that sense of peace so that you can experience the power in the renewal and the beauty in your authentic self.

Connection to spirit is the most useful tool at this time.  Spirit in any form that has valence and meaning to you.

The following phrases can be helpful.  Jot these down to remind you of the positive power in your shifting environment.  Tether yourself so that you can feel the strength of the tree, rooted, and the height of your spirit.  Even if you are feeling pulled at your very roots like the image of the Tower know that Renewal follows and allows a rebuilding process that makes you truly stronger and more flexible.

May you live in interesting times (Robert Kennedy, 1966 originally attributed as a chinese curse but this is not corroborated in Chinese studies)

For those with much to offer, much is expected.  (To  those whom much is given, much is expected.  John F. Kennedy)

Be Grateful for the problems you have, See what gifts are set inside of them.  My own inspiration.

In the center of health is heal… pay attention to how you focus your energy.

The opposite of evil is live.  Shifting your perspective helps, heals, and creates connection.

Fear and love cannot take up the same space, choose love, choose joy, release fear and insecurity –> this allows you to live free, to call the renewal to you.  This moves you away from the pain of the destruction, the despair of destruction toward revolution and renewal.  This is the pattern of scientific, social, and personal revolutions – paradigm shifting-that creates self, relationship, and society anew.  Namaste.  in love and light, bg
