This week we are encouraged to question those things that we are observing.  We may need to assert ourselves, and push for the true character of those around us to come forward.  What we find in our reflections is that it is a time to integrate all of the parts of whom we are, and to find ourselves reaching for the joy of our lives.  This can really only happen if we allow all of us to come forward – not only in ourselves; also for those around that surround us.  The willingness that we express to support those around us in living their authentic selves comes back to us.  We no longer allow ourselves to slip into obscurity.  Let us keep our sights on the fact that we can have it all.

This is a time for us to honor the fact that new things are entering our lives.  It may be a new perspective, a new way of relating, a new way of doing, a new way of being.  We are being asked to trust that the old no longer serves us and that the new will suit us perfectly; even if we don’t yet see it, or understand it.  All of the time that we have spent looking inwards to grasp the truth of whom we are is ready to move outwards.  Doors are opening, new ways of living are making themselves evident as we move amongst the chaos around us.  Even though things are collapsing on many fronts, we are asked to trust, believe and move into the unknown with confidence.  We ARE able to see where we are going.

This week we are encouraged to lead in a new and different way.  Our heart beckons us to flow in a direction that is not widely supported by others.  Sometimes, when we have a clarity of vision, we appear to stand alone.  Yet, as we continue to hold true to the values that we have, and express from our heart-centered space, we begin to attract others to our way of being and thinking.  We are supported in ways that we never imagined, and this week are reminded that this is a truth.

This week we are asked to turn inward, going to the core issues.  We are advised that we have been suffering from tunnel vision.  We see what we want to see and our perceptions ar limited by the blinders that we have put on.  In order to see what is truly happening, we will need to enlarge our vision and fill in the space around us.  We can’t continue with a myopic point of view; we have to stretch and allow ourselves to see what is happening.  When we begin to assimilate the information, allow ourselves to express the gratitude for creating an understanding that brings us peace.

The message seems clear that this week we are meant to pay attention to our thoughts and feelings.  Are we falling into the trap of lack or are we willing to see the abundance all around us?  This is a time of shift, be it subtle or strong.  We have the opportunity to start a new way of thinking/living/being.  If we follow our heart (or soul’s calling) we choose the path of aliveness/abundance/flow.  We get to choose those thoughts and actions that we will water with our nurturance and caring so that we can create the life that we want to live.  One step at a time; one day at a time.  The new ways soon grow into new beings.

As we look around, we notice that there are many who are shedding the things of the past.  That the quiet conversations reveal the urge to release and yet we dally for a while in the comfort of the known.  We find for ourselves that we are changing, integrating, shaping ourselves in new ways; letting go of the things that are no longer in alignment with us.  We are feeling the power of the collective energy, and the love that surrounds us.  There is a sense of freedom as we surrender and let go.

We are being asked to dream big.  Allow the imagination to expand beyond all previous thoughts and embrace the Divine within.  Many of us have been content to take a secondary role.  To follow someone who had the vision, the strength, the tenacity to plow forward in new ways.  We are being challenged to unite the God/Goddess within, to face our fears and take up the staff of leadership.  Frequently, we have been afraid to take the risks, afraid of failure, maybe even afraid of success.  The world needs people who are willing and ready to stand forward.  Our souls are ready to reveal the next journey to us.  Let us embrace that without fear.

This week, we are asked to tune in, and notice those things that are coming forward for release.  Maybe it is limiting beliefs; fear; anger; frustration; depression; inaction.  We are asked to pay attention to the number of times that we have desired to change, and yet coudn’t bring ourselves to move in that direction.  We are being asked to set our intentions and desires, allow ourselves to come alive as we let go of the past.  We are aware of when our actions are not in harmony with what we want, and surrender to the possibilities of transforming with ease.

During this week, we are guided to remember to take deep breaths.  Allow ourselves to breathe in and out slowly, experiencing what it is like to let go of the tensions, worries, and everyday cares.  We find that if we will move to ask for assistance and then open to receive what it is that we need, we are nurtured and cared for.  As we quiet ourselves, and reflect, we find that we begin to emerge and have the clarity to move forward on our next pathway.  When we are in balance with the God/Goddess within, we act from our core presence, and align to the highest good for ourselves.  Our passion and purpose step forward and illuminate those around us.

Such a delicious message for the week.  We allow ourselves to revel in the smells, sounds, beauty of spring as it begins to emerge.  We hold a similiar metaphor – we are budding into a new version of ourselves.  We look at how we can honor ourselves; how we can acknowledge the things that we have, becoming more in touch with the fact that we “have it all.”   When we allow ourselves to open up to others, to share that part of us that we normally keep tucked away, we begin to experience that there is nothing lacking in our lives.
