I was speaking with my dear friend and her husband today. We were discussing a shift which began two days ago – and many are still feeling the effects of this shift.
Many are feeling out of kilt, and have expressed a general feeling of unwell, or are downright ill. Others have a feeling of doom, or feel anxiety about losing a loved one. Or fear of losing everything. These are some of the symptoms that have arisen during this newest shift.
Because of this shift, and because of the uncertain times we are all facing, I was requested to write an article about hope during these trying times.
Back in October of 2008, I wrote two articles (on my Google blog) about Mercury going Retrograde while we were in a growth spurt.

More Clarity Please!

Growth spurts are uncomfortable and sometimes painful (remember children teething!). When we go through growth spurts, we are working to shake off the heavier (denser) energy so we can accept the lighter energy.
You a smoker? Ever tried quitting? It’s very hard to break habits – and having lived in heavier energy for so long, and now trying to break free of it is not easy either – but it can be done.
Ever see a snake shed its skin? It doesn’t just fall off; the snake has to work to slough it off. But the snake does it. It’s part of the snake’s growth.
We are individually, and globally, in a growth spurt. We see the old breaking down all around us – and it has to so we can allow the new, lighter stuff to move in.
Think about this….Even if we ‘lose everything’ – we still have everything! And before you criticize me for this last statement – please think deeply and fully on it.
While going through a growth spurt – fear, stress, anxiety, and not wanting to ‘let go’ – will only make the transition more difficult and/or drawn out.
If you want to cry, then cry. If you want to scream, go find a place outside (preferably isolated) and let it rip. Get it all out in a constructive way. Do not hold on to fear or anxiety. Allow the old to transition into the lighter and brighter energy.
I do not have all of the answers – and not sure I would want to. But I can tell you that I know this is necessary for all of us – globally.
We each have a choice – just as we do for everything else. We can see these changes as a bane; something horrid; dread it; fear it, etc.
Or, we can accept it with grace and warmth. Embrace our ability to adapt, change and grow.
We are marvelous creatures! And, we have each decided to be on earth during this phenomenal change in energy, humans, and the earth. We chose this! No, not as a punishment. God is not punishing you – you are not punishing you – no one is punishing you.
We are here to make a difference – each and every one of us! And I am choosing to embrace my ability to adapt, change and grow with grace.
And you?
