Message for the Masses – Virgo New Moon/Solar Eclipse 2016

The lone wolf is our sentinel as the Seven of Swords creeps through the night eluding perceptions of thievery and hidden dishonor. The trickster has made a stunning performance this year within a background of mirrors and funhouse distortion. It’s been a crapshoot working out what’s real and what’s fiction. Even the best of us have had moments where it seemed the only recourse was to flee. Holding secrets close to the hip, this lonely friend skulked from melodies offering nothing but love. This love appeared as a demon, come to threaten the will of the known. In truth it only challenged us to leap with faith into a bath of golden water.

Tomorrow we enter a new season of growth. Having found no refuge in the night, we begin the pilgrimage back home to gaze into the eyes of love once again, and find our true north. Queries from the past are asking us to see our stories in a new light. Focus has been hard to come by as images and holograms thrust past our lies in the periphery. The only recourse has been to fall into the stories, and see where they lead us.

This moon cycle is our shot to set it all straight, find solid footing. We are offered a chance to shed light on the ways we have fallen from grace, and turned our eyes from love. Now is the moment to move toward the sun, and see what truly lives along those paths of fear. The twist is to figure out how to do this with compassion, recognizing our own personal humanity. Criticism and judgment are what forced us into this solitude in the first place. As we walk back down the most recent paths taken, look into the eyes of love, and say, “yes please” to forgiveness, to connection, to humility. The monster we believed we were running from is simply a friend anticipating us knowing our true worth.

May our haunts bring us joy, and create channels of beckoned knowing.

Message for the Masses – Week of June 20, 2016

image

This week the archetype of the Victim visits our hollows. With arms outstretched en route to the light, our victim serves us with honor in the face of a dragon. Hurt runs and feeds this lonely one heartache laced judgement, giving no room for the heartless to don their lost hearts.

We must allow our hearts to fall. We must know that falling prey to the perpetrator only happens if we don’t honor our victim.  Our victim begs for love, overshadowed by whiles of wonder. Alarms ring broken, hoping for the day acclaim is received, through love, through healing, through going with the flow.

Our charge this week is to transmute the victim into the Hero. Despite looks away, and wishful leaps for glory, we must face this dark music, receive slides of our ugly. She is vulnerable, and soft, and open to receive the love of forty horses trampling through unaware. He is the eternal optimist who takes leaps fit for fools.

The trickster continues to run amok, running shows with veils so thin the truth is tainted with translucent sheen. The victim holds strong, ready to fall if you call. For she is the Hero inside out, and one does not live without the other. The wisdom of this is the magic we seek. Avail this heartfelt love only mothers can fork.

When was the last time you honored your victim?

When was the last time you assured him it will all be ok?

When was the last time you allowed her the triumph to stand tall, and say no to the one who would feed from demise?

As much as we wish to deny the existence, we are never without this stalwart ally. She is the call to pick ourselves up and ride toward the Sun once again.

May we honor our weaknesses to shine light on our strengths.

❤️
