Mid August; Pacing the Vibes and September Class
Sebago Lake, ME | Shot by Reed Allen
Hello my friends,
I hope this newsletter and blog finds you well in peak summer here in the northern hemisphere. And what a summer it has been.
I have not been able to find time to sit down to channel this newsletter. Summers pace, the energy, my own personal study time, family time, and the deep need to be outdoors and in nature to ground and replenish the soul, spirit, and body has been of the utmost importance. And now I find it important and timely to sit down to write this so that it may land gently with love in your lap, or on your laptop, in your hand and most hopefully in your heart.
In this, I will speak of the current astrology, hopefully in an understandable and succinct way for you to make sense of your own life and the life of the collective and our world outside of ourselves. Is my intention that I take this wisdom, this spiritual energy and help you understand how to navigate in a way that is moving and helpful in adapting to the current energy rather than resisting, rejecting, or recoiling from it.
“There can be no life without change, and to be afraid of what is different or unfamiliar is to be afraid of life“ - Theodore Roosevelt
This is the summer of awareness of the intensity, and necessity of understanding, the rapid fire changes that we are going through as a collective. Not everything is understandable nor known to us at the current moment, as we have four planets in retrograde (Mercury just moved in forward after a 3 week retrograde) Neptune, Pluto, Saturn, and now also Chiron.
Suffice it to say that the energy right now is all around discernment around what we are healing, what actions may be necessary, but also what actions are no longer necessary. This includes our thinking and our dreaming, and the inner landscape of our consciousness is going through a review.
Why we feel what we feel.
When Saturn is in retrograde, it’s hard to actually get things done that we’ve been planning because there is a bit of a need to examine what action will be the most important move to take. Saturn moves direct again on November 27.
In general, I call this the summer of deep search, deep understanding, deep healing, and deep review.
Karmic cycles are in the middle of being rearranged as I’ve mentioned before about this year. I am seeing karmic hits in peoples lives that either necessitate or push people into new circles, new habits, new spiritual practice, and or vocation’s locations and relationships.
In the grand picture right now what I’ve been advising many people to do as a remedy for the intensity of what we see in the world as chaos and destruction, and “the dying of the old guard“ is to first look within, and do what we can to help our immediate world and our immediate community in our immediate Circles. This will help to facilitate a collective energy around ripples like skipping stones and gently moving forward through the waters of change.
One thing spirit has shown me is that in these times of chaos and change when it feels like we are battling darkness, one must ironically and counterintuitively, remedy it with play and creation and art and self-care and dreaming.
It may sound right, but it is necessary.
It’s like the old adage of taking the oxygen mask before giving it to someone else you won’t be able to breathe through anything without the sustaining energy of those actions.
It helps to give our spirit guides and guardians the break. They need to come back in full for us to give us advice through our intuition, and our discernment on what actions to take in our lives, and then the lives of our families and communities and the world. With our free will we must allow our Divine selves and guardians open call for help.
With the speed of technology amplifying at a rapid rate with Uranus now in Gemini, which is all about communication, and the air, things will not slow down in this arena, but need reevaluation at a very, very rapid rate more quickly than we’ve ever seen in the rise of technology.
Myself, I’ve been being advised to get more clear about what I want to do with technology, and/or social media and things of that nature so that it is serving a higher purpose rather than just being cluttered. Anybody knows that these little machines in our pockets are the dopamine hit we don’t need right now. What we really need is conscious connection through community and loving discussion and intuitive discernment. Big time.
This is just advised to keep a wise eye on what you’re taking into your mind and spirit and what is holding you back from things that are helping yourself heal, or even know which direction to send your prayer. OUR prayers in.
Everything is so slow yet quick right now, one has to pull away from it to gather up one’s energy and breath.
I highly recommend meditation and breath work right now. I’m really feeling a need to help people learn how to breathe correctly. Possibly through anxiety breathing, and holotropic breath work, and/or even somatic sound healing.
Acupuncture and nutrition, and lots of time away from media. These things will help the central nervous system come back to the daily life and know how better to adapt and help be a part of facilitating these shifts that are inevitable in our lives.
You see, most of them are actually necessary, when people wake up to what needs to change and they stop resisting change, really good things can happen. I’ve seen it happen all the time.
Even small examples of stopping a negative thought form or a negative thinking get in the way of finding deep spiritual solutions even something as simple as the way that we think can be best to be something that is being worked on.
I’m feeling a surge of people studying things that they never thought they wanted to study even if it’s self study. Things like nutrition and gardening and astrology and building and municipalities and things of that nature.
We are being urged to try out something brand new for ourselves.
It could be even making a choice to travel or to take lessons and dance or pottery or art or music or lending our expertise in our local communities.
These are the remedies for the intensity of these times right now. Pray with gratitude, not with fear. Live with gratitude for the simplest of things, and re-administer yourself in avenues of faith and hope in circles of faith and hope rather than in circles of avarice, one mindedness and fear. This is how to begin the consciousness of calling in light and light beings to assist planet earth.
This is going to sound like an oxymoron, but in the age of Aquarius, which we are in with Saturn in Aries, Neptune in Aries, Chiron in Aries, this is a time of great powerful “get it done healing” and “get it done awakening“ and with Jupiter in Cancer, it is expounded in our loving and nurturing. All of these things combined mean one thing:
Aquarius is the rebel, the outlier, the autonomous, sovereign do-er however it is also rules and runs how to help all of society.
Understand where YOUR autonomy is in the CROWD and understand where the crowd and you are separate- at the same time understand why and how we have all affected each other so long for so many centuries.
This is also financial and food.
The answers are never immediate, but they are being shown to us.
This is a time of noticing. Who are you and what do you want? Whenever I’ve asked a question like that in a reading over the 25+ years I’ve done this job, it is crazy, how many people don’t know what they want.
Maybe it’s time to ask the question…
“Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.” – Carl Sandburg
Intuition is your best friend right now and to get a clearer sense of what that means, one must understand how to pull back from the machine, quite a bit here and there often to clear out the channels of perception so that doubt and despair and prejudice and projection do not cloud one’s judgment.
This is why I need a quietude, splendor, creativity, beauty, and solitude here and there throughout each day, even on busy days, so that I can keep my channels clear both from my work but also for my own life as well
Even new spiritual seekers, laymen, who don’t understand this understand what this means. Be VERY careful what you’re taking in and tapping into.
Find your soul
Find your tribe
Find your desire
Find your breath
Find your health
Find your talents
Find your purpose
Find your inner voice
Find your hope
Find your understanding
Find your way
