February is Here
The river is shimmering its iridescent reflections, shivering in the late afternoon play of light.
I love when the snow sparkles bringing ideas of magical hope and anticipation for good things ahead.
I remember living in the north, which is a vast desert. Snow was a gift from the gods as if it was warm enough to snow then all was well.
It is February already and a leap year. My theme for this revolution around the sun is to believe. Despite having built an extensive amount of groundwork, it is easy to get down on oneself, when weary from the journey, but it is essential to believe. More than hope, believe includes intention which is essential to follow through with a concrete plan and the proper action.
Current Space
The years flip by more quickly than they once did. In examining where I have been and where I need to go I would say it is a case of the road less traveled. It is not the easy path. Most people will choose the easy path. I cannot say why I did not.
There has been an unexpected breaking apart of my situation and my relationship to all that is around me.
The ancient iChing teaches:
SPLITTING APART. It does not further one To go anywhere.
When misfortune has reached its peak, better times ensue.
THE IMAGE The mountain rests on the earth: The image of SPLITTING APART. Thus those above can make sure their place Only by giving generously to those below.
Flowing
Exciting because an opening for new is now in place. I have to go with the flow, like the flow of the river, only I do not know where this movement will lead me yet. It appears things must break apart before real change can occur. Now is the time to blaze new paths.
I went to a drum circle this weekend and had the most amazing experience. Besides connecting one with the heart, I found drumming is therapeutic and grounding, I think the drum has the power to help one break new ground. I cannot wait for the next one and intend to attend regularly.
Oh where will I fly to next? So many choices and the only limits I have are the ones I put on myself. Believe.
Our experience teaches us the only time that exists is the present. Our endeavors, if noble, can create desirable virtues all of humanity can benefit from, regardless of our personal beliefs.
