11 Strength

The situation on earth right now requires strength with the gentleness of vulnerability. Forgiveness and compassion will rule. We have the ability and courage to meet this challenge. Kindness and patience will be called upon. Perhaps this is the light that we are to shine in the world at this time. To other’s, but also to the self. The lion and the lamb lying down together symbolize what we need on earth today.

Seven of Autumn

Relax, you will be cared for. Things will come around. It may not be as quickly as you would like, but they will happen. We have done the work that we were suppose to do. The crops are growing and it is just a matter of time that they will produce the harvest we desire. This would be a good time to meditate and to reflect on the world that we would like to see. The cow chewing her cud reminds us that all things come in their right time and for our nourishment or betterment.

15 Release

It is time. Release the past. Release the guilt. Come on, you know you could have done better and it is okay, just the way things went down. There is not one of us who is any crazier than the other because we have all thought that this life and challenges were real. A new opportunity awaits. We will all get there eventually, why not be on the crest of the wave? When one door shuts another opens. For things to change for the better, something has to end. Breathe. Let it be.

9 The Hermit

We are meant to shine. One would think that doing, doing, doing in the world is the shining, and yet, it is the inner work that really leads to peace and that sheds the light on the path that others need to travel to find their peace as well. Inside our own minds is where the true alchemy occurs. Pondering, not ruminating, on events and perspectives can open gateways inside us that will eventually lift the weight of the world off of our shoulders. Rote activities that we can do without thinking allow inspiration and the ah-ha’s of life to come forth. Do not be afraid of the mundane. For here may lie our greatest treasure.

Summary

There is strength out there right now and it is going in a healthy direction. Be the lion strong and capable while you carry the characteristics of the vulnerable lamb, able to learn new things in this place we call life.
Be steady and patient. The rewards of the harvest are near at hand. The cow does not move swiftly, though there has been seen the occasional jump for joy, especially when heading out into green grass and sunny pastures. Take time to rest a bit. You will want your stamina for the harvest season.

While you are biding your time you might want to release the baggage. Spring cleaning time is here. Open the windows of your home and your heart and mind. Let the breeze come in and feel refreshed. You are an eternal being of great talent and splendor. Strut your stuff, metaphorically at least, and spread your tail feathers like the peacock and let the world know who you are by your humility and ability to let it go.

Fireflies are a delight to see in the meadow. They speak of their own life force and invite others to join them in creation and rejoicing. Likewise, the hermit who goes within sheds a light on the whole consciousness of humanity. Your inner work is always seen and heard. Meditation, prayer, and pondering of the big issues on the back burner of your mind ferment and sprout wonderful possibilities. Your light is a wonderful addition to this world.

Things may not change the way that we expect them to, but perception or perspective of the meaning of existence will. There is much joy to be had. Embrace it and yourself and you help us all grow together.

I offered this as a universal reading, it has touched me on many levels and brings comfort in an ever-changing environment. I pray it serves.

Till next time, God bless, Namaste~
