Lunar Eclipse 6/26/2010



The activity in the skies points to a tremendous amount of potential for chaos to erupt in our lives. As I have been diligently trying to uncover each unique detail of the various aspects, the feedback I've received is "what am I supposed to do, while all of this is going on". Here are some ideas.

I think chaos is pretty distracting. My hat is off to those of you who have begun to clean out your homes, pare back the amount of paper you are trailing and to folks who have dug themselves out of the stuff that we accumulate without intending to.

For those of us caught up in the distractions, I offer a recommendation that you retain the joy that is your birth right, that you dance in the face of the wildness around us, that you embrace a deep love for yourself as you whirl through this time.

Overall, now is time to empty ourselves of attachment. It may be useful to imagine ourselves as a clown car, chock full of circus clowns. Imagine those clowns (think of gymnasts if clowns creep you out) rolling and flipping out of the car until the very last one has left the car. Let the spaciousness of an empty clown car exist for a moment.

We are adverse to emptiness in this society. We are accustomed to crowded thoughts, crowded belongings. It's not an easy task to let emptiness sit.

There is so much new energy in the environment. The opportunity to embrace it comes in many forms. It's a great idea to clear away the old, to make space (and feel it) before the new arrives.

It's up to you to embrace this time for your own best interest. If these suggestions don't resonate with you, no problem. I encourage you to follow your own internal guidance.
