We release the old as we soften into autumn.  We tap into our deep center through the course of winter.  We are brought anew and recreated in the spring.  Breakdown, breakthrough.  The process of refinement need not be treacherous or heavy.  It can be light and subtle.  It is important for us to be clear within ourselves of our intentions and what we are calling forth.

To add to the inner journey that this time of year provides, we are also in the eclipse season.  We just rode through a full moon lunar eclipse on October 8th, and on October 23rd we will be experiencing a new moon solar eclipse. New moons are a powerful time to set intention for the coming month.  When a new moon is punctuated by an eclipse, we are given an extra boost of potency for our intention setting process.   This is an awesome opportunity for diving into the process of inner cleansing and refinement.  I invite you to sit within your heart and feel where you are called to put that attention.   We are being given an opportunity for our inner shadows to be illuminated, what would you like to shed light on and how would you like to transform?   Many blessings to your inner journey!

For several weeks I was convinced that an earthquake was imminent. And then as the rumbling continued I realized that it was not only coming through from deep within the earth, but that the pulsing and shaking was reaching us from the cosmos. I have never felt anything quite like what is moving through the planet at this time. There is a speed and depth and intensity at which this energy moves. It is effecting all who inhabit the earth today — humans, animals, plants, water, soil. The degree to which we are all being transformed is tremendous.

And the guidance that comes through from Source — “This deep turning is unraveling all which needs to be seen and transmuting all which needs to leave. Humanity is being given the opportunity to rise to a higher system of operation, to a higher degree of clarity, honesty, love, and radiance.”

What is essential for all of us at this time is to nourish ourselves from the inside out, creating more spaciousness and more room to breathe. We are being asked to address where our life force needs to go, clarifying what is truly important to us and where we are being called to put our hearts. By honoring and recognizing the true paths in which we walk, and the light that we share, we are able to stabilize and bless the ground on which we stand.
