Well that was a night, I think I must of been up the whole night tracing the MOON in the Skies..
Well the rumble has begun, can you feel the shift? This rumble I speak of, is a very real energetic shift that is colliding from the depths of Mother Earth. It is a moment every year, a waking up of the Kingdoms of Nature from a place within HER that shakes us all out of the slumber state, the unconscious dreamtime of the Winter and Yin time of the year, and says prepare for the rise of the next cycle of awakeness!! What are you waking up to?
It is really easy to say "rise" in our mind driven world , but the meaning goes way beyond what you think. More and more humans are starting to understand the IMPORTANCE of taking better care of the Planet from which we live, evolve, and grow. Since 2020, there was an awakening from many that started to understand being in Nature goes far beyond "going for a hike". There has been more of you knowing and evolving into your connection with how you walk with Mother Earth, the impact your day to day life has on the environment and the Kingdoms that live in the Natural World as their home, and how might your life and how you live, shift with the seasonal cycles as a kinder way of being as one with the Natural World as your way of living your life.
We still have such a long way to go, truly and obviously, but it is inspiring to see many more of you interested and wanting to know more and how your life and the evolution of the whole can be shifted by your connection to
first the practical: how you are living through your impact
next step: how you are healing your human heart and the existence that you choose to live by through walking with Mother Earth.
When we pay way more attention to the balance of your Body, Mind and Essence commitments to walking in alignment with your growth, Mother Earth and the seasonal cycles, you learn to trust a bit more of what your truth is for this cycle of RISING.
Why is the shift into SPIRNG so challenging?
Well there are many experts that might have their individual opinions as to why, but from my perspective with working with the Earth Ways and being able to watch many students during the time of February- March go through depression, mania, anxiety, addiction resurgence, grief, and overwhelm..to name a few experiences. There is a great shift from the yin time of the year that begins in October and leads us to this moment, and whether or not you were able to have this peaceful experience in your winter..LOL...said hardly anyone ever, and it has so much to do with our Dominant Culture of chaos, distraction, too much information and expectation as well as circumstance.
It honestly matters not if you chose a mindful heartfelt supported winter or did the best you could, we all ,as living beings on this planet, have this connection to the shift, and with the planetary alignments from above pushing the shift in accordance to Mother Earth and the natural cycle of waking and preparing, things will be stimulated, activated and awoken whether you want to look at them or not! SO the emotional and mind imbalance of those mentioned above, starts to realign from the depths of the darkened nights from which we just came from start to realign into what is in balance for you to work on, evolve into and expand from Spring Equinox to Fall Equinox of the cycle of growth in 2024!! ITS A BIG TIME!!
And might I add, this is a time of INSPIRATION and planning, the excitement of what is to come, an empty cavas of the possible, that is exciting and stimulating and what leads to the mania of Spring, not a bad thing, its just not balanced, and what goes up will come down, so as we learn and grow to track our imbalances (patterns and addictions) we learn maybe to honor this transition for what it is. There is much to celebrate in what you have become, the energy that is thriving to expand but may you start in your roots of stability.
And I must recognize, the incredibly heart breaking evidence of a world that is going through such great tragedies of violence, inequality, power dominance and children that are starving, scared and need so much help right now, it is awakening our need to help others and a reactivation of generational trauma , this is real, and one we cannot hide from , BUT to be able to survive this life with the safety you have in your world right now, YOU MUST take care of yourself, your stability , so you may have the strength to keep going and support others. As humans we are here to be in a compassionate relation with others( human and nature) to bring forth love and support where we can.
SPRING EVENTS:
According to the sacred Chinese Zodiac, it is the Year of the Wood Dragon, which my goodness is pushy and showing you how to pay attention to doors that are opening to walk through, but not all doors need to be walked though, choose wisely from a balanced way for your life at this time!! And so fun to be with Wood Dragon, in the time of the Element of Wood and Spring Equinox, this is a year of being conscious of what are you wanting to honor in yourself of your stability as well as being flexible with your life and emotional well being to becoming into your delicate and precious gifts and talents of your Essence path ahead!! This year has some extra kick to it, being an 8 Universal year, so do expect to be pushed this year, of all that you have been manifesting and creating and telling the UNIVERSE, I WANT THIS FOR MY LIFE, you just might start to get the invitations to begin!!
