As The Plot Deepens And The Fog Thickens, The Story Is Somehow Becoming More Visible.
The Story is as old as our recognition of time, and there are questions now about our nature, about how we got here, and about where we are going.
Under this Full Moon Eclipse, perhaps we recognize more clearly what has truly run its course — the greater story, His story, Her story, your story, the seen and the unseen.
It has been a long and arduous dream, one that in these times may have been losing its meaning before we even realized we were already entering another story, another dream.
Face value doesn’t count for quite so much now. We have seen too many masks and moved through too many fogs. And as we enter further into the Age of Aquarius, some of our delusions are becoming harder to maintain. What we once mistook for truth may simply become more visible for what it is.
But Be Careful About Taking Everything You Are Facing Personally, Or Armoring Yourself By Searching For What You Must Be Against.
Just Be For: For Life, For One Another, For All.
There is enough “Us and Them” in the world already. Create a silent majority of self and observe.
If you believe we live on a plate, somewhere you will find a gathering of people who believe it too. Almost any idea can now find its echo and return to us sounding like confirmation.
So open your heart and lean into the thinking that arrives from your own center. Speak plainly about what you know without a ventriloquist.
Whose Voice Is Speaking Through You?
And just as importantly, what are you saying to yourself? What are you communicating within yourself, for you?
You may find yourself looking behind you more often now. Some of your solutions are in the past — if you learned from the past.
You will recant and recount. You may see an old experience differently now, recognize the lesson you couldn’t recognize while you were living it, and accept that you can never actually return to where you have come from.
The Past Can Teach You. It Cannot Become Your Home Again.
And those last-ditch efforts and quick decisions that rise suddenly out of emotion? Stop and BREATHE.
Intentional breathing creates an interval between emotion and action. Give the emotion somewhere to go before you give it something to do. Breath gives emotion room to diffuse.
Belly Breaths
Before you rise from bed in the morning, lie still. Breathe and reach for the stillness within you. 1-3 minutes. You Can Do It.
Count 1, 2, 3, 4 as you breathe into the belly.
Count 1, 2, 3, 4 as you breathe out, emptying the belly with a soft squeeze.
Come back to the practice two or more times during the day. Sit. Be still. Breathe.
If There’s Fog, Don’t Demand That The Fog Disappear. Just Become Still Enough To See What Is Actually Moving Through It. And Notice.
Give The Fog A Moment To Move.
Repose In Clarity Before Deciding What Comes Next.
And Then Take Deeply To Heart: What Dreams Are Worth Building?
Not Every Dream Is.
“If Only I Work Harder, I Will Succeed.”
At what? And at what cost? What value are you setting in motion?
What are you building through fear, urgency, longing, love, anger, habit or hope? Because eventually we become participants in whatever we repeatedly feed.
Perhaps This Eclipse Does Not Require Us To Have The New Story Figured Out.
Perhaps it asks us first to recognize the dream that has ended.
To Bless What Taught Us.
To Release What No Longer Has Life In It.
To Listen Beneath The Noise For The Voice That Is Actually Our Own.
And Then, Before Setting The Next Thing In Motion, To Ask:
Is This A Dream Worth Building?
