The last few days have been so astonishing, I really don't know where to start.
Events have illustrated one thing more clearly than any of the other times I have said it: it doesn't matter how long one has anticipated certain kinds of developments or trends, how many significant astrological signs seem to point to shifts and changes, or how much you feel energies within yourself coming to a head. The fact is that the reality of the current world scene must be about ten times worse than I could possibly have imagined. My head may be saying, "this is much as I might have expected, at around the time I expected it." But my heart is breaking at the scope of the spreading inhumanity, and the knowledge that this is just the beginning of a long process. I simply cannot completely disengage my heart, nor should I, even as I search out ahead of the curve for the harbor in which to help build the more loving new paradigm.
Yesterday, I woke up before 4 AM and walked to the side of the house facing the moon. There it was, crisp and full outside the window, perhaps just barely beginning to be eclipsed by earth. Yet half-an-hour later, when I went again to see if there had been any progress, clouds had rolled in and the orb was completely obscured. The eclipse itself had been eclipsed, and before long it started to snow, so in our part of the world, no blood moon.
Yet the energies of the significant portal remained strong, and the most amazing development for me was two big "yeses" in one day. This lifetime has been littered with rejection -- job applications, great creative ideas, auditions, you name it. A few notable exceptions keep me from completely expecting the worse, but my prevailing energy toward life has been -- despite this being completely against my spiritual leanings! -- "struggle against", "things I want most won't happen longterm", "this paradigm hasn't worked with or for me". (What sad self-talk!) Yet suddenly, on a day representing a clear change of astrological direction, I received two positive responses to things I had initiated but had been on hold. It's like all my life, I have been a moon in shadow, and finally the objects blocking the light are orbiting off. Their time has come -- and gone. I need to get used to the idea that it is a "yes"-based universe, not just in theory, but even for me!
To get back to the horrors unfolding, even they are being subtly eclipsed by all of us "light workers". Those of us who are luminous have long been eclipsed by the energy of non-Love, but no longer. If we can stay focused on the beauty and power of natural phenomena, the everlasting nature of all life, and belief in a more Love-based future, Earth (and its inhabitants) may still have a softish landing. A visible, hope-filled landing.
