Your Guide to Planetary Energies for April 18 to 24, 2016
By Pam Younghans

Highlighted Aspects This Week
MON: Pluto goes retrograde 12:25am PDT (7:25am GMT), Sun sesquiquadrate Jupiter, Venus trine Saturn
TUE: Sun enters Taurus, Venus square Pluto
WED: Sun sesquiquadrate Saturn
THU: Full Moon 10:23pm PDT (5:23am GMT on Friday), Mercury trine North Node
FRI: Venus conjunct Uranus
SUN: Venus sesquiquadrate Mars
PLUTO GOES RETROGRADE just after midnight tonight, at 12:25am PDT Monday (7:25am GMT). When a planet comes to a standstill in order to change directions, we usually feel its influence more deeply for several days before and after the date of the change. With Pluto's influence strong now, we are aware of certain aspects of our lives that are not within our control. We are also deeply engaged in a process of release that is clearing the space in our lives for something new to be born.
It seems to be part of our culture to fear endings in general, and to fear death specifically. But we must remember that while Pluto may take us through difficult experiences, its intention is that -- like the Phoenix -- we will ultimately rise from the ashes of what has been and experience a rebirth.
VENUS RIDES a rollercoaster this week. As the goddess of love, when Venus is supported by other planets as she is on Monday, we are also assisted in relating well to others. When Venus is challenged by another planet as she is on Tuesday, relationship issues that need to be resolved usually come into our awareness.
At the other end of the week, Venus has a rendezvous with unpredictable Uranus on Friday, a union that inspires us to break free from restrictive relationships so that we can more fully express the truth of who we are. Then, on Sunday, Venus and Mars are at odds, indicating that internally or externally, the feminine and masculine are not seeing eye to eye.
THE FULL MOON on Thursday at 10:23pm PDT (5:23am GMT on Friday) is arguably the most important astrological event this week. Events around this Full Moon in Scorpio relate back to the very energized New Moon that occurred back on April 7.
We began a process at that New Moon that was meant to reinvent our lives. Now, with the lunar cycle coming into fullness, it is our opportunity to see where we are in that process. We may choose to proceed in the direction we've been going -- but this is also an opportune time for reassessing and changing our trajectory.
Mercury is in harmonious aspect with the North Node on the same day as the Full Moon. This means we will want to be open to new ideas that can direct us with more certainty on our soul's path of growth. Mercury is in Taurus now, supporting us in simplifying our lives, and creating conditions that can be sustained over time.
In peace,
Pam

Fascinating perspective on what is occurring on the planet this year..we see these things reflected in the news, and now you can get a heads up on what to expect for the rest of the year, as the Collective Consciousness awakens. This affects all areas of our lives, personal, health, work, communities, politics, etc. Collapse will no longer be confined to one country, it will be worldwide financial collapse this time around...which is part of the unfolding of humanity's awakening. A lot of wisdom in this information about how to navigate life in these changing times...  ~PB

7th April 2016: New Moon in Aries: Knowing When We Don’t Know By Sarah Varcas

7th April 2016: New Moon in Aries:

by ForeverUnlimited


7th April 2016: New Moon in Aries:

Knowing When We Don’t Know

By Sarah Varcas

The Moon is new in the 19th degree of Aries at 11:25 a.m. UT. This is a transformative Moon, conjunct Uranus – bringer of the unexpected – and squared by Pluto – lord of death and rebirth in equal measure. We may find ourselves strangely liberated by something which, to all intents and purposes, looked set to bind us. Things prove not to be as they seemed and a way through a particular challenge may make itself known.
But for this to happen a new perspective is called for. A rapid maturation of attitude which shifts us from ‘how do I manipulate life to make it give me what I want?’, to ‘how do I get out of life’s way to allow it to give me what it wants and needs me to have?’. There may be a gaping divide between the two. So certain are we that we know best, we can easily shut down to life’s nudges and messages which tell us there may just be another way we’ve dismissed or ignored for too long. As the darkness of this Moon resonates with the shadowy corners of our psyche, we can become acutely aware of neglected possibilities and seeds of potential in what once looked like the worst case scenario!
Darkness can be an object of fear or the bringer of safety and rest. Sweet dreams are bidden as darkness falls, just as the monsters of nightmares may rear their ugly heads. We fear darkness not only literally but metaphorically.  We prefer to be clear and sure, certain in our view and decisive when faced with challenge. But often it simply doesn’t work out that way. We may find ourselves confused, blind-sided, ill-equipped to face what we must. It takes time and patience to come up with a plan or gain enough clarity to know that, in fact, nothing need be done. Knowledge is rewarded in our societies: you’re an expert, a master, a guru, a teacher. People look to you for advice and support. To say out loud ‘I truly have no idea’ marks us out as ignorant, uninformed, of little use and no interest.
And yet to know when we don’t know is a wise and noble abiding. It takes wisdom to know our limitations and courage to reveal them to others in a world where knowledge is king. If we know when we don’t know, we can similarly know when we do. Rather than complicating things further with a frantically constructed response born of great haste and little foresight, we can acknowledge we have yet to gather all we need to discern the way forward. And then we wait, or we seek out information to fill the gaps. We ask those who do know or seek insight deep within. We act only when the time is right, not simply to ease our anxiety or sense of urgency. We become aligned with the situation, not fighting or forcing it.
A New Moon in Aries is a time of high energy, with Aries being the first sign of the zodiac and a New Moon heralding new beginnings, something Aries is particularly fond of! However, this time around the energy requires patient consideration and a willingness to stop and reflect before we step out and do. We may well be tempted to act first and think later, but could well regret doing so! The wisdom of this New Moon is accessed in the quiet of inner reflection and the strength it takes to admit when we simply don’t yet know.
Within this admission lies the magic of possibility, the alchemy born of releasing our stranglehold on life and allowing it to unfold all around us rather than desperately trying to direct the show. It enables us to bow to the greater wisdom that is life itself and surrender to a more penetrating force that shapes our life from the inside out, from our very core, radiating forth its energy and potential to become manifest on the outer plane. If we are still waiting for things to improve, for life to buck up and meet our demands, this Moon affirms it’s not all about us, but we are all about life. The key to fulfilment is found in living for life not the other way around, expecting the universe to respond to our decree.
The biggest obstacle to making this shift is often the belief that we know best, that we KNOW how things SHOULD be if only they’d be it! ‘Not so’ says this Moon. There is so much we have yet to understand, and what we don’t know right now is knocking at the door demanding attention. It will challenge what we thought up to now and past certainties may dissolve in its wake. Nothing is quite as it seemed and much is not even close! It’s time to wipe the slate clean of expectations and let life lead us step by step, gifting us wisdom as we go.

“The Universe is Never Testing You” by Taryn Crimi | Angelic Guides


“The Universe is Never Testing You” by Taryn Crimi | Angelic Guides

“The Universe is Never Testing You”

April 7, 2016 by angelicguides
Today we would like to focus your attention upon the desires that each of you have. There is not a single soul on your world that does not have desires which they wish to manifest for themselves. So often we watch in dismay as you block these desires by creating resistance with your thoughts of doubt, worry and fear. There is a very common misconception amongst many on your world, it is the belief that you must prove your worthiness, you must prove that you can overcome obstacles in order to deserve all that you desire to create. We are here to tell you that you did not come here to struggle, you did not come here to see how difficult you could make your life, the universe never tests you and this is what we would like to further elaborate upon.
If there is anything we most want to convey to all of you it is of your worthiness. There is nothing that any of you can do to deserve anything less than the perfection of all that you are. No matter where you are, no matter what experiences you have manifested, no matter what choices you have made up until this point in time its never too late to make a new choice. You always have the ability to shift your focus upon something that pleases you, something that offers you the feeling of peace, of joy of bliss.
So many of you believe that the universe is in some way keeping all that you desire away from you until you prove your worthiness, until you have proven that you are resilient enough, until you prove that you really do deserve all the good that you have yearned for. As if there is something outside of yourself responsible for fulfilling your dreams and desires. And to this we say, there is nothing further from the truth. The only one capable of keeping anything from manifesting is you. The thoughts you are thinking, the direction of your focus, the emotions you are choosing to feel are directly related to the experiences you manifest.
We will tell you this, the Universe is always giving you everything you are asking for, and there are no exceptions. So why then do you not have all that you desire here in your physical reality? To this we reply, because you are not allowing your desires to manifest. Certainly many of you are completely unaware that you are blocking all that you ask to receive. The Universe is responding to every desire, every need, every wish for something better, but you cannot see the signs because you are so focused on the lack of what you want. It would be similar to saying: I am watching channel 5 on my television, but what I really desire is to watch channel 10. If you don’t change the channel you cannot see what is on channel 10. It is there, it is just as real as channel 5, but you can’t see it because you are not dialed into the channel you prefer. You just keep focusing on the fact that you cannot see channel 10. And so it is with the things that you desire. When you allow your thoughts to begin to focus upon what you desire, rather than repeatedly and incessantly focusing on what you do not want, you would begin to see the unfolding of all that you desire in such perfection you would be in shock by how easily everything began to flow into your life. Do you understand our analogy? You must be tuned into the vibration of creation in order to see the signs and impulses the Universe is always giving you. The universe never keeps your desires from you.
We watch as so many of you keep yourselves focused in such despair, such frustration because you feel as though you do not have any control over your lives, that you do not have the power to create your dreams, when in fact a simple shift in your focus is all that is needed to allow your dreams to unfold in the most marvelous of ways. So many of you believe that you must persevere, that you must force your dreams into manifestation, that dreams are earned not given. If we could persuade you to focus more of your attention on what you do want rather than focusing on the lack of it you would see how effortlessly things would begin to fall into place. We often say, you cannot focus on fear and faith at the same time. You cannot focus on the lack of resources while attracting abundance. Once you begin to deliberately choose your thoughts because you know you are the creator of your reality you will really begin to marvel at how much easier life begins to feel. You can’t focus on how hard everything is and expect it to get easier because that’s what you prefer. The universe is always delivering to you more of what you focus upon. Reach for the thoughts that feel good. It really is that simple. You never have to feel something you don’t want to. You say, oh but what about all these upsetting experiences around me? To this we remind you, your focus, your thoughts are always under your control and no one else can choose them for you. There is always something you can focus upon that pleases you. Always.
You did not come here to struggle, you did not come here to prove your worthiness, nor did you come here to see how many difficulties you could bare. You simply came here to experience the exhilaration of creating all that you desire into a physical reality. But you have momentarily forgotten your divinity, you have forgotten how to play, you have forgotten that you came for the satisfaction of manifesting your desires. Life is not meant to be so difficult; you came here to have fun. Don’t worry so much about making mistakes, there really is no such thing, you will always have new desires, and it will always be incredibly pleasing each time that you allow the universe to deliver them. So take a deep breath and relax into the knowing that you are infinitely supported in everything you desire. You are always in control, you can create anything you desire, there is never a dream too big. You hold the key to all of your dreams. Begin to focus on what you do want rather than being so focused on what you don’t have. Feel what it would feel like to have those dreams now. What does it feel like to have your desires right now? Play with this concept and you will begin to see new opportunities flow into your life.
We hope that we have served you in some way.
In love and light we are your Angelic Guides
If you have questions for the Angels, I invite you to schedule your private session today!
Much Love,
Taryn

ARCHANGEL MICHAEL – SECOND WAVE X APPROACHING – via Michael Love – 3-17-16

ARCHANGEL MICHAEL   –  SECOND WAVE X APPROACHING   –  via Michael Love   –    3-17-16
*
GREAT ONES,  AS WAVE-X MOVES INTO ITS SECOND PHASE, YOUR SOUL-SELF WILL FULLY ATTAIN ITS PROPER POSITION AS THE 5D DIRECTOR OF THE PHYSICAL SELF  IT IS, AS IF AN IGNITION SWITCH HAS BEEN TURNED ON WITHIN YOUR DNA WHICH CONTAINS THE BLUEPRINT FOR YOUR PERFECT ADAM/EVE LIGHT BODY.  A SERIES OF LATENT ENCODINGS ARE ACTIVATED VIA THE HIGHER FREQUENCIES OF LIGHT THAT YOU HAVE BEGUN TO INTEGRATE.  THESE LIGHT VIBRATIONAL PATTERNS CONTAIN SPECIFIC ENCODINGS OF COLOR AND HARMONICS WHICH WILL AFFECT ALL THE CELLS AND ORGANS WITHIN THE BODILY FORM.  GRADUALLY, THE CELLS WILL BEGIN TO ABSORB AND METABOLIZE THE LIGHT, AND THESE LIGHT-BEARING CELLS WILL BEGIN TO PERMEATE AND AFFECT THE ENTIRE PHYSICAL VESSEL.
THIS TRANSMUTATION PROCESS IS THEN INITIATED WHEREBY TOXINS, EMOTIONAL TRAUMA, PAINFUL MEMORIES AND EXPERIENCES STORED THROUGHOUT THE BODY WILL BEGIN TO SURFACE, THEREBY CREATING A MULTITUDE OF UNCOMFORTABLE PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS: ACHES AND PAIN IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE BODY, FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS, HEADACHES, CONFUSION AND TEMPORARY MEMORY LOSS, TO NAME ONLY A FEW.
THE NEXT LEVEL OF AURIC FIELD RECONSTRUCTION INVOLVES THE EMOTIONAL BODY AND THE ASTRAL PLANES OF CONSCIOUSNESS. AS YOUR PHYSICAL BODY EVOLVES, IT BECOMES CAPABLE OF INTEGRATING MORE AND MORE REFINED FREQUENCY CELLS OF LIGHT.  YOUR FOURTH-DIMENSIONAL REALITY BEGINS TO CRUMBLE, AND YOUR ILLUSIONAL WORLD BECOMES DISTORTED AND CONFUSING.  YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEF STRUCTURE MAY BEGIN TO FALL APART, LEAVING YOU FEELING VULNERABLE AND WITHOUT GUIDANCE OR DIRECTION.  THERE IS A HIGHER SELF MERGE AT THIS POINT WHEREBY THE OVER-SOUL FACET OF YOUR HIGHER SELF THAT HAS RESIDED WITHIN YOUR SOUL STAR (THE EIGHTH CHAKRA) BEGINS TO SEND IMPULSES/BEAMS OF HIGHER FREQUENCY LIGHT PACKETS INTO YOUR SACRED MIND, SACRED HEART AND THE ENTIRE CHAKRA SYSTEM. THESE BEAMS ACTIVATE YOUR INTUITIVE ABILITIES AND ALSO CONTAIN VITAL INFORMATION FOR YOUR GREATER UNDERSTANDING OF WHO YOU TRULY ARE AND MAY ALSO ACTIVATE A DIVINE DISCONTENT WITHIN YOUR DIAMOND CORE.  GOD CELL IS NOW INTEGRATING MORE AND MORE GOD LIGHT, WHICH ACTIVATES AND INCREASES THE POWER OF THE RAYS OF GOD CONSCIOUSNESS WITHIN YOUR SACRED HEART CORE.  THIS PROCESS IS PROGRAMMED WITHIN YOUR DIVINE BLUEPRINT AND IS ALSO ENCODED WITHIN YOUR DNA.  BY THIS TIME, YOUR CELLS HAVE BEGUN TO RESPOND TO THE LIGHT AS THEIR MAIN SOURCE OF ENERGY.  THIS IS THE MAJOR REASON ASPIRANTS ON THE PATH OFTEN RADICALLY CHANGE THEIR DIETS TO LESS DENSE FOOD, FOR THEIR PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL BODIES ARE BEING SATURATED WITH ADAMANTINE PARTICLES OF LIGHT – THE FOOD OF THE GODS.
AS YOU MOVE DEEPER AND DEEPER INTO THE REALMS OF REFINED LIGHT AND NOW ENTER INTO MID-5D, THE PHYSICAL SENSES WILL BECOME ENHANCED, AND YOUR AWARENESS OF COLORS AND SOUND WILL INCREASE.  THE MAGNIFICATION OF THE PHYSICAL SENSES MEANS THE CELLS WITHIN YOUR AURIC FIELD ARE BEGINNING THE TASK OF CLEARING THE DENSE, RESTRICTIVE ENERGY THAT HAS BUILT UP OVER MANY THOUSANDS OF YEARS.  THE FOGGY PRISON THAT HAS DULLED THE SENSES AND HAS KEPT HUMANITY IN BONDAGE IS GRADUALLY BEING BATHED IN LIGHT CELLS, WHICH WILL RESULT IN THE AURIC FIELD BECOMING MORE RADIANT.  AS MORE AND MORE SOULS AWAKEN TO THE DIVINE POTENTIAL WITHIN,  THE PHYSICAL BODY MUST GRADUALLY BE REINTRODUCED TO THE TRANSFORMATIVE EFFECTS OF THE LIVING LIGHT IN ORDER TO RECLAIM THE ORIGINAL LIGHT BODY FORM THAT WAS DESIGNED FOR ALL HUMANITY.
AT THIS STAGE OF YOUR EVOLUTION, THE PHYSICAL BODY SLOWS DOWN IN AGING AND WILL SOON START TO REVERSE THIS PROCESS!  SICKNESS AND ILLNESS WILL CEASE IN MID-5D AND THE PHYSICAL BODY WILL NO LONGER DIE, AS CELLS ARE REGENERATED A THOUSAND TIMES FASTER THAN THEY DID AT THE 3D VIBRATION.
YOU ARE BEING CHANGED INTO AN ENTIRELY NEW YOU THAT NEVER EXISTED PHYSICALLY BEFORE! DORMANT SUPER-HUMAN ABILITIES WILL START TO SHOW THEMSELVES AS YOU VIBRATE FASTER AND FASTER!
…AND BEHOLD, “I SAW A NEW CREATION!”

A great message from the Arcturians by Suzanne Lie.



http://suzanneliephd.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/joy-is-harbinger-of-ascension.html



Joy Is The Harbinger of Ascension
By Suzille & The Arcturians

 {"Unconditional Love allows you to feel Joy,
and Joy is the inter-dimensional portal to New Earth."}
~ The Arcturians

Joy is the Harbinger of Ascension. This Joy can begin by flowing through the sky, a leaf, an animal or a human. Joy is not just an energy field. Joy is the doorway to open into your reality of fifth dimensional New Earth.

Unconditional Love allows you to feel Joy, and Joy is the inter-dimensional portal to New Earth. There is the Joy of a new-born child, the healing of a beloved person, a successful and fulfilling project, and an important contribution to planetary Ascension.

Remember, Ascension is not a place. Ascension is a transmutation. Transmutation is when the frequency rate of a person, place, situation, thing, or planet shifts into ahigher frequency of reality.

If you allow your higher self to speak with you, your fifth dimensional expression of SELF will give you a great deal of information about the path that you have chosen before you took this form, but you forgot.

Fortunately, the highest light has attracted your attention back into the fifth dimension and into the fifth dimensional expression of the "you", who is over-lighting its fragment of the "you" who volunteered to wear a third/fourth dimensional Earth Vessel.

This Earth Vessel, however, is becoming far too small. This dynamic is occurring because your Multidimensional Mind, your Third Eye, and your High Heart are awakening and opening. This opening best occurs when you remain grounded in the planetary body of Gaia.

Once you are grounded in Gaia, your inter-dimensional portal will open, and you will feel the connection in-between the core of Gaia and the portal of your own Higher Self. You will also feel the "you" that resides in-between the earthly and higher dimensional opening of your portal.

This "you" can perceive all the frequencies of all the portals that are within your Earth Vessel. Some of these portals are grounding portals, and need to be channeled through your third dimensional physical vessel, as well as your fourth dimensional astral vessel.

This version of YOU is the planetary "you" because you are wearing a garment of the same elements and elementals as Earth. This is likely the version of you who will experience a sense of "ascension." In other words, this is your inter-dimensional self.

This form of you represents the entire planet, as well as all the frequency from the core of the Earth, Air, Fire and Water, that Gaia has shared with you so that you could wear an earth vessel. 

The dark ones did not want to share. They want to steal all that they can from Gaia and from all Her beings. These dark ones had the "assignment" of creating the downfall of the "third dimensional expression of Gaia." But all nature must die to be re-born and that is the NOW of the New Dawn.

To assist in this rebirth, you must LET GO of the third/fourth dimensional versions of reality into which you bi-located. You released your primary attachment to your lives of comfort, purpose and Joy on the higher dimensions, so that you could inhabit a physical body to more fully assist Gaia.

None of you realized that life on the third dimension could be so difficult, as you all volunteered from your Galactic societies within the Now of the fifth dimensionalOne and far, far beyond. Third dimensional life was much more difficult than you ever imagined, and many of you got lost in the myriad 3D illusions.

At least that is how you judged yourself. The truth is that all of you are doing everything that you can within the circumstances, the body, the times, the cultures, the economic spectrum, and the challenges that the particular Earth Vessel you are wearing is now facing.

Therefore, all of you are among the ones that will ride the huge tides of change, as well as all the waves of change that have been moving through the everyday life of third dimensional Gaia's shores.

These tides of change, winds of change, and inner expressions of change, have merged with the skies of change, the consciousness of change, the thoughts of change and the emotions of change and the fluidity of change.

These great changes are all happening around your Earth Vessel and deeply within your Earth Vessel. Fortunately, many of you have remembered the healing power of Unconditional Love and the trans-mutational ability of the Violet Fire.

With the memory of your SELF, you can say, "I refuse to participate in "that" reality-and I send it unconditional love and Violet Fire!" Transmute that which is stuck in the darkness into the Light. That Light is dawning brighter and brighter each day.

It is only by holding true to your own higher expressions of self that you can remember to re-member the decree of:

"I AM a Multidimensional Being who has chosen to take an earth vessel on physical Earth.

"I AM a Multidimensional Being who came here NOW to assist with the Ascension of Gaia.
 
"I AM wearing an earth vessel to share my higher frequencies of SELF with all life on Earth.

I AM that I AM.
I AM my Personal Self.
I AM my Planetary Self and

I AM Here NOW to assist with the Planetary Ascension.
*

8th/9th March 2016: Solar Eclipse in Pisces

8th/9th March 2016: Solar Eclipse in Pisces

We Are Destiny
The solar eclipse occurs in the 19th degree of Pisces at 1:58 a.m. UT on 9th March. Conjunct Chiron and opposed by Jupiter, this is a potent eclipse with the power to stir up old emotions and demand we deal with them, like it or not! In the interests of inner balance, it triggers a cleansing process which may require something of an emotional purge at the outset. How we experience this process will be largely dictated by our willingness to experience previously avoided or denied emotions, moving through them and out the other side rather than trying to sidestep or prematurely transcend them without having penetrated their depths, which are also ours.
Emotions can be troublesome things, arising of their own accord, muddying our perspective, clouding our view and influencing our behaviour in ways we may regret. But they can also be beautiful, life-affirming blessings, even those which, on the face of it, are less than positive. Whilst grief can feel like a deeply destructive force, its power is testament to the love we have shared and the inexplicable mystery of death that throws every moment of existence into sharp relief. Anger can feel vicious and attacking, but can also be an expression of passionate commitment to live a life that refuses to settle for the numbed-out dumbed-down world that tries forever to suck us in.
This eclipse may stir up the past just when we thought it was all done and dusted, reminding us that our psyche lives not in linear time but on a different plane where decades ago can be right now, memories become real, the future becomes the present and what once we knew as truth is simultaneously the greatest lie. Understanding this fact and knowing our true essence amidst the whirlwind of memory and emotion is an act of power at a time when we are all being recalibrated to live life in a new way. This is an eclipse of destiny, but not in the ‘pre-ordained there’s no avoiding it’ kind of way. We are our own destiny and this fact may become startlingly and unavoidably apparent at this time. The events of our lives, their twists and turns, challenges and triumphs, are a reflection of our deepest essence and our unique presence in this world. We are force-fields of energy and intent, interacting with the unified field of being woven through all things. The causative factors of events in our lives are many and varied, but we are the common denominator and it is through self-knowledge that we can more fully live, whatever life throws our way.
Nonetheless, we may be tempted into victim mentality at this time, convinced we are being punished or scapegoated, unfairly treated or powerless to effect change in our lives. But we are only victims if we allow something or someone to dictate our state of mind and heart, instead of rising up, sovereign even in the face of our greatest challenge. To do the latter we must understand how our mind and heart works; what triggers our own personal spiral into despair or hopelessness, anger or confusion. There is simply no time to wait for feelings to change of their own accord now. We must be the masters of our destiny and resolve to be agents of much needed change. And even if that takes a lifetime of self-enquiry and baby steps towards self-mastery, it is a lifetime worth living: one that contributes not more suffering and angst to the collective field but greater wisdom and insightful presence.
Squared by Saturn in Sagittarius, this solar eclipse reminds us that optimism is only optimism when it endures despite all evidence to the contrary! Otherwise it’s just a reaction to positive conditions that fades as soon as they do. We need to be resilient now, to have faith even in the face of challenge to all that we hold dear and true. These are not easy times and they are not passing ones. We are in the midst of a powerful and lengthy process of adjustment and transformation, rebirth and recalibration. It will challenge each one of us in our own unique way. What may seem easy to one will feel like death to another. To look around and compare our own lot to someone else’s is meaningless when we are all being pushed and prodded, stretched and challenged in deeply personal ways that may defy mutual understanding.
But the one thing we do have in common is emotions: we all have them, as much as they may differ from one to another. This Piscean solar eclipse urges us to get to know our own inside out and back to front; from side to side, above, below and from their very core. This may be our greatest act of power: to wrest control back from the wounded mind and closed heart, investing it in our still and stable centre from which all wisdom and insightful action, all purpose and pure intent is born. It is to this core we are called now: deep within ourselves, through the joy and the pain, the hope and the fear, the memories, dreams and fantasies, into our very essence where all things rest in their own place.
The influence of any eclipse continues for several months so we have some time to do this inner work. The eclipse moment is just the beginning of a process not its entirety. As we navigate our way through the coming six months until the next eclipse season we will have many opportunities to shape rather than be shaped by our reactions to life. To feel them fully whilst knowing them not as ourselves but as the maelstrom of life within us, like the wind and the rain, a tsunami of feeling or an earthquake of emotion; uniquely us and yet an expression of something far greater that exists beyond the personal. Emotions, this eclipse reminds us, are a force of nature – as are we – unleashed upon this planet to honour and protect her, not confuse, oppress and control.
