Things feel like they are softer, settling a bit, and becoming more energized. Astrologically, the central theme for March is healing and freedom from past hurts and burdens. Sounds good right? We could sure use a break from the “covid fatigue”. We are basically one year into this historical event that has brought so <\/em><\/strong>many changes to our world, taught us countless lessons around flexibility, adaptability, and humility. Now might be a good time, no a really good time to give an extra measure of attention, to our need for support, to refill and refuel. To invest in our own stabilization.

Unconscious reactivity and triggers are part of the healing and purging going on right now. Boundaries are essential and more so than usual; as is finding and maintaining your own sovereign center. And essential of course is remembering that we all have times when we don’t show up at our best or fall short from our goal – but that’s okay. No judgement or self-recrimination; just get back to basics again. Learning from those less than perfect experiences will potentially be our “nuggets” to cash in for future.

It’s a good month to multiply heart energy. To give and receive from the heart and know where to seek it, as well as where it’s welcome and aligned with purpose. And if we are around others having a hard time, not to feel guilty or deflect our good experiences and feelings. Those “good feelings” are healing energy for us all!! We need more not less.
Personally, I’ve had a birthday which is always a great motivator to think and see things differently. It’s an empowering experience to speak what one wants for their birthday celebration and to have a safe space to speak into. So, that was my experience. We (my husband, granddaughter, and I) had a sweet time on Wednesday taking a short road trip to San Jose for lunch and then hit a couple of my favorite fun places before coming home to lay out a spread of selected delectables for our charcuterie dinner. All surrounded by little reminders of love in the form of cards, flowers, and sweet messages. I consciously reminded myself to relax and receive it all. I wanted to enjoy it for the special expression of love that it was. And it was so enjoyable.

The day after, still in the throws of simple pleasures and gratitude, I woke up and just sat in my bedroom taking in the space and beauty. Rather than rushing into the practical routines that come with morning, I felt into the energy and opened space and quiet inside to become part of it all. I was moved to jot down a few words. Here they are:

Morning Guidance<\/strong><\/em>
In the cool morning air while the light is still dim I hear a sound that carries purity, hope, and calm lightly upon my heart.<\/em>

In the flick and dip movements along the surface of the ground a dance among the birds and rabbits tell of a life for all who see it, a harmony, a patience, and a timelessness, that I love.<\/em>

The morning dove sets her coo upon the day like a blessing for all who hear. Knowing life this way, is a guide for how to live.<\/em>

I see your medicine for our time. My heart swells in gratitude, appreciation, and reverence for your offering to my life, to all, in this moment.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
