"So anchor where love still lives.

Turn down the panic.

Turn up the presence.

Rest if you must.

Let go of what power told you to be.

We rise again…..but this time, on our own terms.

Together."

YES! Just over ten years ago, I sat on the kitchen floor with someone who was in a state of total collapse...someone realizing that everything they had told themselves was breaking apart. I remember saying, "And now I am feeling hopeful for you....and I am so proud of you...because what you are facing is something so many people need to face but don't have the courage to do...and you know what? What you are facing now is the prerequisite to the way up. It couldn't happen without this. And we will walk through this together. hold my hand and we will get you some support for this. You got this." This is the same thing I see happening in the larger world I inhabit. It is hard...it is necessary...and we got this...TOGETHER.

That story of you on the kitchen floor took my breath away. Just perfection, and yes, this is exactly what is unfolding globally right now. We’re all on the kitchen floor, holding each other’s hands! xx

Yep! I'm gonna stand barefoot on the grass and absorb the moonlight. Yummy. Maybe I will howl a bit, make contact with other local wildlife. Cheers!🖖🏽

“You are not here to hold it all,

but to hold your piece of it with care and courage.”

Whew!!! Thank you for that, because I AM feeling it all, even on vacation. I can feel the sands beneath my feet shifting as I root more deeply into the earth.

Thank you for your way showing 🌞🙏🏻❤️‍🩹

Yes, this week certainly feels like A LOT! A time for deep grounding - bare foot on the earth as often as possible! Breathe!!

I had a lovely time on the grass having a chat with my old friend, the moon.

I started following this substack so I could separate from the constant influx of negativity currently on social media.

I needed a place the gives me the facts wrapped in wisdom and hope.

I’ve found that here.

Today, I’ve spent most of my day grappling with “ judgement” .

The theme of the day was examining preconceived notions and past and present judgements.

Judgements about myself, past and present relationships, current events, online conversations. It was all on the table.

I listened. Reflected. Emotionally released. Made amends and am ready to let it all go.

I’m new to astrology so the significance of the timing was lost on me until I read this post🤣

Thank you.

This message just made my day. I’m so pleased that these transmissions resonate with you. It does us no good to completely turn our eyes from all reality in order to keep peace….we have to find a way to witness reality without getting lost in it. We can be present without dipping into fear. By seeing things in their broader context (through the lens of the patterns and cycles astrology tracks) we can walk this difficult path without being destroyed by it. So often in life, growth happens through pain….and the human race is being asked to walk through fire right now, through immense pain, for growth, for betterment, for evolution, for expansion….this horrific path is the way…and if we hold on to each other, seek wisdom from above and beyond, lean into love and out of fear, we can traverse this path to a better world. Onwards!
