The
mighty Winds of Change are here! They are going to be swirling and whirling
through our lives during the month of February. Many elements of our
lives are going to be blown this way and that, moving us closer to our
new patterning.
For
most of February, the Winds of Change will kick up huge dustclouds.
It will be like trying to carry on normal life in the midst of a hurricane.
Everything will be uprooted and flying about us. We won't be able to
hold onto anything. The Winds of Change are going to scour through our
beings and through our lives and help set us onto the right track.
One
of the prime areas in which the Winds of Change are going to be strongly
felt is relationships. This includes romantic partnerships, friendships,
those we work with and anyone with whom we have any kind of dealings.
If the love and respect aren't there, let these relationships go. If
they use you or abuse you, if they keep you off balance or pull you
out of your Core Self, or if they are just not on your level, let them
go. We might as well, since they are going to be swept out of our lives
whether we try to hold on or not.
Completion
of the past is still a major theme for February. However, the process
of completion gets increasingly easier to achieve. We are going to be
very effective this month at bringing unfinished elements of the past
to closure. The graceful solutions we have long sought after are going
to come to us. They are going to come to us! Long established
blockages will dissolve.
This
doesn't mean that the challenges are going to stop. They haven't yet.
But we are going to deal with them in new, more honest ways. We're going
to adopt a "So what; Just another Challenge!" attitude and
deal with them the best we can. They may bang us about a bit, but we
are not going to be knocked over by them.
For
those of us who have experienced an intense passage through the Fires
of Initiation, this is now the time to regroup ourselves and seek out
healing. Find a good healer or bodyworker and have them help you release
the accumulated trauma from your cells. We have to clear away this trauma
before we can go forward into something New. We need to release those
pent up emotions, cry those tears, let go of the anger, hurt and disappointment
and move on. Anything we can do to purify our beings and detoxify ourselves
will be most helpful. It's very important that we clear these past experiences
and painful emotions out of our bodies.
On
the mental level, we might discover that we are somewhat in a state
of shock. Our minds may feel like sieves full of holes through which
all our thoughts or concepts pour out and nothing can be retained. So
much has happened over the past few years. We have been tested again
and again, repeatedly taken to the limits of our strength and endurance.
This shock brings about an emptiness making it difficult to concentrate
or focus. We feel stretched wide open mentally, which is actually
quite good, but doesn't make it easy to function in the material
world.
Once
again, we need to be as quiet and solitary as possible. This isn't the
time to initiate new projects or throw ourselves out into the world.
It's a quiet time of deep, inner healing and letting go. Of course,
we have to do this in the midst of the howling Winds of Change.
The
best attitude we can assume this month is one of acceptance. Acceptance
of what is and of what is not. Stand with your hearts and hands open
and allow whatever blows away to go and whatever comes to you to come.
And bemused acceptance with a sense of humor is even better!
By
the end of the month, a new clarity will prevail. That's when we will
see how our stretched open, empty mental state actually served to help
release some of our congealed old mental patterns and entrenched illusions.
With
this new clarity we will be able to see our new landscape. What has
remained, what is gone and what new things have arrived.
In
March, we will begin our journey into the new landscape.

TO COME....
