Springing Light

Many of you have seen your dramas played out in unexpected ways this past month.  There continues to exist for you an undercurrent of change and growth, and many of you are feeling knocked off center by this.  Understand that of course you are building new pathways, forging new roads, creating new growth and new branches in the tree that is your life.  But the beginning of this growth process is of necessity a clearing-away of the old that lies underneath, clearing away what no longer serves and what you no longer wish to hold within you.  This wish, of course, may not be at a conscious level and there is a part of you screaming to hold on to those familiar bits, even though at their core they may have created some of the very discomforts you are now experiencing.  And the irony of this does not escape you, does not escape us in our advisement of you, does not escape the Universe in its laughter at itself.

“So what do I do now?” you wonder.  “What can I do to hold onto myself?”

The trick is not in the holding, of course.  The trick is in the letting-go.

When you let go of what’s holding you, let go of your past hurts, your past injustices, your past discomforts, you create space that can be filled by every magical aspect of you that you wish to now bring in.  This is a time of clearing, then, a time of laying ground for that new growth that is to come, a time of preparation for what is next in your lives.  It’s also a time for thinking ahead just the tiniest bit: who are you, at core, and who do you wish to be?  Are those two selves at peace with one another or is there a gap between what you think you are and what you wish to be?  Finding peace with that gap may be one of the best things you can do for yourself at this time, then, and may help lay ground for its eventual closure.

Give yourself, then, this month, the time and the space to allow life to unfold as it will.  You have set things in motion and it is simply time to allow this part of the play, this portion of your dance, to play out.  There is a part of you that knows the next scene and is getting ready for it; allow that portion to rest as you enjoy what you have already begun.
