I remember when Hawk flew-over
the trails on the last New Moon.
This reminded me about them being symbolic of new beginnings,
and sacred connections with New Moons, Hawk and Mercury.
Mercury in Retrograde springs forth relationships from our past
that often circle back to the present.
Sometimes, these reunions revisit us in a variety of forms of phone calls,
post cards, letters, emails, or other virtual social media platforms.
Or they might come in the form of dreams, visions, or memories of
someone you might not have known back in the day, or even in the flesh.
The point is we are given opportunities to revisit, and rework old
patterns so that we can release old ways, and rewrite new scripts.
But pretty soon, a Full Worm Moon will be in effect on
Monday, March 9th, and then Mercury goes Direct again.
On the day before that, Daylight Saving Time begins,
signals the call to the light.
As the fog lifts, and the skies clear,
may red breasted robins remind us that the early bird gets the worm.
Can you feel the winds of change whistling to you in the air?
Our days are getting longer, which tends to
spring forth an outgrowth in spirits, and budding energies.
And then, Yin and Yang will be equal again on
the Vernal Equinox on the first day of Spring on March 19th.
This is a time when Nature shows us equality
between masculine and feminine energies.
The Yin and Yang are always in flux,
as the one constant in Life is change.
We are in a Pisces time of year, which is a good
time to meditate on the water element,
and the fishes of the sea.
Have you ever noticed that fighting against the current leaves
you feeling more submerged underwater, than going with the flow?
Meditation on Whale is good medicine to tap into
the heartbeat of the planet, remember our history,
and know where we are going.
These great creatures have a living memory, and crystalized wisdom
that we might as well heed, and respect.
Like it or not, we are swimming into the waters of different pods,
and new ways of defining family constellations.
Do you ever wonder why an elderly, Jewish, card carrying Socialist that
hasn’t forgotten about the Civil Rights movement of the 60s,
continues to be written off as an “electable candidate” by
the corporate media, and even liberally-minded voters?
Where does that voice come from that says we can’t afford to
subsidize quality health care, or free college education
for those who want to access higher learning?
Or why the two major political parties
are so against Rank Choice Voting?
Consider that Donald Trump, and his friends in the Billionaire Class
that control the resources want nothing to do with a civically
engaged public because it seemingly threatens their way of life.
This way of life says that your ability to make money makes you better
than those that are not, and it is predicated on property rights, and privilege.
But really, it’s just that they want to control where the
“general welfare” goes, and who benefits from it.
Everything about that kind of thinking is wrong, because what we
are talking about is what is good for the goose is good for the gander.
It is impressive how in the dark people are about where
the money comes from, and where it goes.
That’s why the bulk of the money in the Military-Industrial (Economic) Complex
hides in shadowy “black hole” accounts.
By and large, the Billionaire Class prefers to go unexamined,
and wants to keep it that way.
Like when the white slaves, and black slaves were manipulated
by the slavemaster to believe one was more of an underclass
than the other, and therefore inferior.
Today, the ego of the habituated mind is addicted to
segregated, us and them kind of thinking.
There are those that are entitled to preferential treatment,
and those that are not, says the voice in the head.
But where does that come from?
Perhaps it’s about time that the age old social democratic values that
have been muzzled in this country come out into the sunlight.
Opening up to abundance means that there is enough, and everyone can win.
And if you are sick of getting sucked into March Madness,
and election year politics . . .
Think about the frogs and salamadars finding their way
to vernal pools on Big Night. See them arriving to their breedings grounds,
safe and sound so that we can all carry on our merry way in peaceful coexistence.
Till we tweet again peeps,
