JULY 2002: IN THE TRANSITION ZONE
Updated June 30, 2002
SOLARA'S SURF REPORT FOR JULY 2002
"Don't look for your outer world to change
until you have changed yourself!"
We are in the midst of a mighty transition and July will continue to accellerate our process of going from "Here" to "There" as we move from one set of outer circumstances to totally new ones.
As the month progresses, we will notice increasing changes in our environment. This means that many of us will be changing our place of residence, moving to a location which better suits who we have now become. Most of these physical moves will happen within the June - September time frame. If you don't actually physically move, then other elements might manifest to create change in your environment, such as people moving into or out of your life or a career change.
For those of us who are moving, we will be going to places where we will be happier and more creative. It may be in the same town or it may be across the world, but we will feel much more at home in our new location. Once we get there, we will need to make huge adjustments in our lifestyle and ways of being so we can recalibrate ourselves to align with our new situation.
It's not so much a matter of receiving a new assignment and going there obediently; rather, we will be consciously choosing where we want to go next. We are now making decisions to follow our happiness and create the necessary space so we can pursue our creativity which has been long felt suppressed by outer circumstances and inner challenges.
Finally, the fruits of our years of turmoil, struggle and intense inner recalibration are starting to ripen. Although these dramatic changes may appear to happen rather effortlessly, they are only happening to us because we have been through so much.
For several years, many of us have undergone difficult passages full of myriad challenges and trials. During this time we may have judged ourselves rather harshly as failing or losing our way because our experiences weren't happening on obvious "spiritual" levels. Instead, we were thrown into what appeared to be a dark pit devoid of inspiration or creativity. Our focus was thrust upon surviving these tumultuous times. Many of us experienced depression and a sense of hopelessness. We developed physical problems which reflected the personal issues we were working through. And much of the time, we could not count on the support of others and had to go through it alone, using our own severely stretched resources and somewhat battered inner strength.
It was all a powerful initiation which gave us valuable lessons and allowed us to heal and resolve many of our core issues. It caused us to question the directions and beliefs we had been pursuing for most of our lives. It stripped us down to a humble core essence level and made us more real.
The good news is that this period of intense initiation is drawing to a close. And now it's very important for us to understand what it was all about and embrace our difficult trials as a great gift. It's important that we don't hold onto how hard our journey was, for that will hold us back from embracing the New. We didn't fail or lose our way. We've just been building the foundations of our New Lives. Foundations are not sparkly towers; they are built under the ground in the dirt and in the dark. That's exactly where we have been for several years now, moving heavy rocks and shoveling out the mud.
In many ways, this experience has ground us down and in our judgement we have perceived this as a "bad" thing. But what it has really done is grind us down into shining, raw diamonds. We've become more grounded, more humble, more real, more loving and infinitely more free.
Many of us have spent years of frustration feeling that we weren't breaking through and had lost our creativity. We were so focused on the great edifices that we wanted to build and couldn't understand why it was taking so long. Many of us thought that we were being blocked and tried to force our way through the perceived obstacles, butting our heads again and again.
But now, we must understand the value of the process we have undergone. Without a strong foundation, no building will stand. We've been doing exactly what we needed to do. We've been experiencing exactly what we needed to learn. How else were we to become diamonds? How else were we to become unshackled from illusion? How else were we to merge our vastness with our physical humanness? How else were we to become real?
As we emerge from the storms of shattering illusions, we are entering a new level of being, constantly moving deeper into the Greater Reality. And the most obvious truth is that we couldn't build the lives we yearned for or unbridle the full potential of our creativity until we reached this new level, until we passed through the fires of initiation.
WHERE ARE WE NOW?
We are entering twin portals only to discover a long corridor in front of us. This corridor is a Transition Zone. At the end of the corridor is another set of doors which lead directly into our new circumstances-- our New Life. Many of us are now leaving the past behind and going through the first set of doors.
Walking through the corridor of the Transition Zone, we marvel at all that we have completed. We see that our struggles have served us greatly and made us more real. We lovingly release all our past experience and continue onwards. With each step, we gather our concentration and focus on our unhurried walk through the corridor towards the outer pair of portals. With each step, we feel lighter.
Our emergence into our New Lives is a certainty. The twin portals are right ahead of us. All we need to do is walk forwards with open hearts and integrity.
As we move through the corridor, we are going to discover that we are no longer alone. There are others passing through the Transition Zone with us. These people have also been through the fires of initiation so there is deep understanding and compassion between us. There is a sense of mutual support and respect. We come together as One Being to help one other get through to the other side.
Watch for these people, for they will be coming into your lives. We are here to help each other through the emergence process. We no longer have to do it alone.
July is going to be full of activity, full of decisions, full of transitions. But surprisingly, it will also be full of fun and friendship.

HELPFUL
ACTIVITIES FOR JULY:
Watch out for Occasional Sinkholes:
Sinkholes are places where the ground suddenly collapses under our feet. Without warning, we find ourselves in a deep trough. When this happens, it's easy to get discouraged and depressed. However, this condition is only temporary. Be like water and keep your love flowing. Soon, the hole will fill up and you will be released to continue on.
When things get intense around us, it's easy to lose it and become stressed out. Right NOW, start gathering together some ways to transmute stress. Try hot baths, exercise, meditation, yoga, walks, dancing, spending the day in bed. Whatever it takes. Just be aware when your stress levels are rising and take action.
On inner and outer levels, clear out the remaining baggage and gather together the elements which give you happiness and nourishment.
Find the elements which are keys to your future. Allow them to guide you to the new openings.
There are no "Good Guys" and "Bad Guys". There are no "Good Countries" & "Bad Countries". There are no "Good Religions" & "Bad Religions". There is only the One!
Nothing is as it appears to be. Step out of any residue of fear or anger and take a good, clear look at what is really happening. Don't take anyone's word on what is happening. Don't blindly follow authority figures. Figure it out for yourself from a place of vastness and all-encompassing Love.
There is simply not enough compassion on the Earth at this time. Many of us are feeling assaulted by the energies of anger and fear. It's a challenging time with duality running amok. This is exactly when compassion is most needed. Consciously become an embodiment of compassion. Be like the Sun which has no personal favorites and extend your compassion to all beings equally.
Whenever there are blockages or things don't happen quite as you would like them to, simply understand that things are being rerouted to bring them into alignment with the state of RIGHT TIME, RIGHT PLACE.
There is no time to sit and ponder whether we should take these new opportunities which are being presented to us. If it feels right, do it. Leap! And then leap again!
Many people and situations are going to be leaving our lives. The resonance is shifting dramatically, making this is a natural occurrence. Let go gracefully and wish them well.
If you feel empty, embrace that feeling. It's a good thing and something that all of us experience when huge chunks of our old ways of being and doing things leaves our lives. This is a pregnant emptiness, a sacred place where we await the birth of the New.
As we consciously live in our One Being, we also nourish and strengthen the resonance of Oneness throughout the world.
