Spring energies are in full effect now . . .
Further movement away from the Spring Equinox brings us closer to
the Summer Solstice, the lightest day of the year on June 21, 2023.
Light is rising and will reach its zenith in the Northern Hemisphere at that time.
In the Southern Hemisphere, it is Fall where darkening days are what’s up.
And then it will be their darkest hour on the Winter Solstice.
But before that, energies will be more intense with a
Solar Eclipse on April 19-20 and a Lunar Eclipse on May 5th.
Eclipses shake things up on the inside and out.
They are powerful catalysts for change and flipping the script.
Ready or not, our inner and outer worlds are shifting and changing,
like the tides and seasons.
The reality is that nothing remains static.
The old world as we knew it continues to fade into the backdrop,
as we move further into a New Age and Paradigm.
Trying to maintain the status quo during the eclipse season
is like asking someone who is
fuel injected with performance enhancing drugs to stop working out
and sit still in calm meditation.
And then Mercury in Retrograde will co occur with the eclipses on April 21-May 14th.
Mercury In Retrograde is analogous to lucid dreaming or the old Twilight Zone TV series.
It feels like living in an alternate reality where non-localized
and non-linear time are real right brain dominated experiences.
These are the alternate realms of various forms of meditation,
where our brainwaves change form and we look at things differently.
If you try to makes sense out of these experiences from a left brain, logical or rational viewpoint,
you will probably add to your suffering by experiencing negative chi and feel more stressed.
Instead, consider this period as a good time to go deeper into
and embrace intuitive faculties and psychic phenomena.
During this period, it is normal to go through past remember when rewind episodes of yesteryear.
In this space, may we be inspired to reimagine and reexamine
where we have been and explore where we want to go in our future selves.
It is wise not to make big decisions, till after the mental fog lifts in mid-May.
Mercury In Retrograde is also a good time to relax and let go of our attachments to machines,
technology and surrender to the creative, outside the box ways of looking at things.
Because, in much the same way as the linear, order of operations ways of our left brains,
these devices tend to malfunction and not work as well during this period.
It appears that our world is ripe for massive changes.
But at the same time we will be looking back at the way it used to be:
Perhaps not without a repeated mental tape of nostalgic Fantasy Island
or Survivor Series challenges.
Systemically, what matters is to look at this current experiential crisis in human history
as an opportunity to realign with Nature and the Universe’s language of Love and Truth.
It is critical that we do not get sucked into our fears.
Keep your Third Eye open with a wide angle gaze for the
magic, mystery, signs and synchronicities in everyday life.
See the extraordinary in the ordinary.
Wishing you all much inner peace,
Ari
