The Yummy-ness Challenge

December 14, 2010

We ride with the Sun into our future. If “future” be what you name it. In reality, it’s like a thread pulled and separated out of a woven cloth. Except that the thread never really separates from the cloth. We ride with the Sun into a section of space where the ever-spiraling waves of energy are more intense. The increasing intensity of these waves is what is causing the changes we are now experiencing. As inevitable a change as night changing into day. Each of us requested the opportunity to be here for the show, and each of us was one of the ones chosen. Each of us chose a role to play and we each recognize that choice in ourselves and each other. That’s why the connections between us feel so nourishing, so right. Because we recognize that place in self and other where we made a choice and where we remember that we made a choice. Thank goodness that this remembering is solid and can be relied on. It abides within us as other things pass away.

And what of those who can’t remember and don’t want to remember? Those who are hankering for a less intense time and who refuse to be pulled kicking and screaming into the future of our planet? They just say no. Thank goodness for them that they don’t have to go. Our wonderful rules of soul development say that they can take all the time they please. Or the rules would say that if “time” was real. Instead of “time”, let’s say “yummy-ness”. They can use all the lovely yummy-ness they need. They can extravagantly drape themselves in gossamer silks of yummy-ness and wear sparkling yummy-ness jewels and eat banquets of yummy-ness foods until they’re as stuffed and sated with it as they want to be. There’s no hurry, no worry.

Except for you, there’s a bit of a challenge. Which you totally signed up for, so that’s OK too. And that is that many people, maybe 40% of the people here now will be leaving your dimension of existence and you won’t be physically seeing them while they’re physically gone from the planet as you experience it. Which is perfectly OK, they are still their incredible divine selves and you are still connected with them through the oneness of all. It’s just a bit disconcerting and will at times jangle you, and at times sadden you and at times even rock you so that you feel the earth under you may not be as solid as you wish. Stay in your center and allow all these things to pass so that you may offer sound and sensible counsel to those that need it.

Lunar Eclipse

December 8, 2010

Lunar eclipse on the night of the 20th and the early hours of the 21st. Magic in the moonlight. The solstice drawing us closer to that which is coming. I feel it drawing me like a tide. I want to be swept away in its beguiling waters and flung out on the shore of our destiny, my hair in tangles and my heart bewitched by the pulse of the universe flowing through me.

And so it will be.

I Can't Find Him

December 8, 2010

I can’t find him in my dreaming. Last night I looked, and I may have glimpsed him. He was there like a shadow behind his brother Dickon. Only because I saw Dickon did I realize that the other one there – the shadow – was probably Thor. Right now Dickon is the one who links us – we can only see each other darkly through him.

I’m not sure why this matters or why the current separation brings me sadness. I’m sure that there is a future time where we are together in light. So that is sufficient. It’s not necessary to untangle the current situation or to understand why this separation is present. It’s just story anyway and doesn’t have any more relevance than the news does to what is really happening. Worry and sadness and longing are ineffective use of resources, and I know this so I vigilantly detach myself from them and turn my attention to more productive and happier thoughts. Clear out my chakras, bring in light, and go on with my day. Often working with others who ask for connection, putting aside in my mind the one I love who does not ask.

You know, I’ve done this before. Almost everyone has. There’s the end of a love affair when the other wants to leave before you are ready. It’s not your choice, but you must accept, know it’s over and move on. There’s suffering, you try to move it out of your field and focus on other things, knowing that it will get better and your life will fill up with love again. With the love affair, you can cut your ties to the other completely. Or you can just loosen them and put lots of space between both of you for a year or two. Then sometimes, if you’re lucky and the other person wants it, you can find each other again in a life-long friendship. This is what happened between me and my close friend who I know, love and trust down to the ground of my being. As he does me.

With your child, the option of cutting ties completely doesn’t exist. Or at least it doesn’t exist as an option for me, and I don’t believe it exists for him either. So there is another resolution in store for us. Maybe I’ll try the plan that worked so well for my friend and me those decades ago. Put lots of space and light between us for a year or two and see what happens.
