Hi, I’m gonna take a drink of water. We’ll see what’s here today.
This is a time of great internal change for many people. In fact, it feels as if people are dumping out stuff they been carrying on the inside, --looks a dumpster-- I’m just going to dump all the heaviness. People are very aware of this heaviness, so people are going to dump this great heaviness they’ve been carrying around, sometimes for lifetimes, but the mixed joys and pains accumulated in this lifetime are being disposed of and dissolved, because those on this path no longer wish to carry that baggage forward.
During these times of great change, it is of the utmost importance to keep your awareness about you. So that you recognize this sense of floatiness is not a new identity, but rather representative of this shift. As you leave behind, not just old ways, but old things you been holding on to. As you leave these behind, give them to the earth to be dissolved. Well, that’s the way I think about it, I give it to the earth to be dissolved. They’re saying other people have other ways, but they’re demolished, annihilated. One is in an empty, floaty space.
It is important to recognize the vast potential in this space to bring in joy in this lifetime. Many in life –it’s like we set out with this expectation that change is possible, but a mediocre amount of shifting. But once we are launched in life -- looks like a boat -- we are on the same stream, where, in fact, it is possible, in essence, to rebirth ourselves through transformative work so that our realities shift.
--I’m saying, what about relationships?—They’re saying, we can see that there’s potential always for new connection and new relationship. We can’t expect to have one same solid circle of people around us constantly in the same spot for our whole lives. Even when we keep the same individuals around us, usually there’s at least a minimal amount of switching out, rotating in roles of importance, depending on the journey of the soul. So relationships may shift, but what we were going to talk about was our life pattern itself can shift.
We’re not simply born into a destiny, sometimes we are dancing with multiple potentials at once. It depends on how you as an individual play your cards. Help shape, choosing which potential to take, help shape the path you going down. Yes, you correct to think there is often a greater force pulling us along, that’s undeniable, but in fact there’s a larger proportion of control over our own path than many of us like to think.
So it is right sometimes to sit in a place looking backwards, examining what I could have done to speed this up, or they’re saying what I could have done to slow this down, sit and wait. Both are powerful pieces of this journey. People should ask themselves more or we should ask ourselves more when to dance and when to wait. There’s an art to both, both are essential parts of this journey.
It is also not right to always point a finger to external forces forcing you to decide. There are people who have a pattern of needing always to have an external force to force them, because they’re not taking initiative in the dance themselves. Sometimes with paths it does take seeking out on the path of the seeker rather than just receiving the path from the divine.
There is both, a question and an answer on both sides, dance is the correct word, because it’s this motion forward and this motion back. There’s a great sense of play, but also a great sense of anticipation can either pull us forward or freeze us in place. They’re saying we’ve seen people get frozen by the knowledge that something is going to happen, or something supposed to happen. They let fear, --looks like they crank a key-- freeze them in place.
What do we do when we have insight into what will become? How do we harvest in each moment? Sometimes this essential part of harvesting is burning what is. In order to plant seed in order to start again. So yes, they’re saying there is a very destructive force that is part of life on this earth. Like when relationship ends or we burn, change everything, change job, change house, change location, change relationship, even moderate shifting of those around you is a force of change.
Nothing in life is ever static, this is important to remember. You may have moments in which you feel things are peaceful, but it’s not a jar of imperfection when they move out of this. It is the natural force of the universe, the natural dance we do in order to remain on this path, in fact, remain alive and in motion with a fluid changing God/Divine universe.
We find great resonance between our soul and what’s going on in the outside. The weather is never static, the earth is never static. Yes, it’s true, there are expansive moments of peace that ought to be recognized, but every dawn is a new day and every night is a new night. In which there is a container for birth, growth, resurrection, death, transformation. Repeatedly, grinding, repeatedly doing things, yet having in a different experience. Humans harvest, we reap fruit from repetitive experience, that’s how we draw more collective truths through repetition, the sun does rise every day, that itself is a repetition and then every day is a new day.
So there’s all these rhythms, it’s important we understand the rhythms as well as understanding the melody and the harmony. We understand our own desires within the placement of things and the placement of actions, when to rush and when to wait and there will always be mourning over both of those things. Over pushing too fast or waiting too long. That can be expected. It doesn’t mean you’ve done the wrong timing, it’s just this essential part of knowing and being.
