Decipher the Lesson

"Be willing to see the light in the dark and

observe what needs to be transformed within you."

Kate Spreckley

As darkness approaches us, we often think, "why is this happening to me" or "this is unfair." In reality, however, the best question is "what am I to learn."  If chaos floods our life or challenges unexpectedly rear ugly heads, we will move through the turbulence if we can catch a glimpse at personal meaning.

We do not have control over things outside of our lovely selves, but we do have control over personal perceptions and reactions.  When we stand back and decipher the lesson, it may be a repeat with the same scenario or a new twist to an old tale.  Either way, there is something to be learned.

There is courage to be found when we we face reality and deal with what is present before us.  Choices will surface and we can pause between them to choose what will create higher self awareness and firmer connection with all things wonderful.

 

Resources and Time

"The external world is a reflection of your inner world."

Kate Spreckley

If we happen to follow astrology, it is interesting to compare our emotional reactions to the energy in the midst of planets.  As those around us articulate his or her words, we can measure how much reaction we invest.  It is an excellent habit to compare what is happening in the outer world to that which is happening in the inner world.

The on going swirl of life can help us push forward with better boundaries and deeper understanding.  Even reflections in our dreams trigger us to question, 'How does this apply to me'?  If you invest the time, the results will deepen a sense of oneness with all things.

As we begin to invest in an awareness of communication between all things, (books, conversations, nature) we will grow to understand where we need to be stronger with boundaries or be open to other than what we hold dear.  We have choice no matter what information presents itself.  Just apply your lovely self, so many resources, so little time!
