Just a little post-moon contemplation...
During our Full Moon Water Ceremonies, I often give thanks to Grandmother Moon for beaming her light into the darkness ... literally and figuratively. I find the light of her moon to be very helpful in revealing hidden aspects of the Self. Our recent moon this week was no exception.
Touching in with the astrological projections continuing into the coming weeks, it seems that the Universe is setting a backdrop for us to (choose 1: begin / continue) peeling away the masks we wear to conceal our perceived faults from ourselves and everyone else.
In short, our Universe is throwing its doors wide open in support of our "Getting Real" with ourselves. Letting go of false courtesy; pretending to be ok with something that you find contrary to how you really feel; laughing at jokes you find offensive; and one of my personal favorites: holding back my truth for fear of being rejected.
Imagine what it would be like if: we were able to speak our truth fully, with conviction, respect and compassion; gently offer an alternative to someone breeding doubt and fear, disrespect or lack of gratitude into the world; say what we mean while being open to learn a better way; let all the things that are bottled up inside of us OUT to dance and sing and play in the sun ... without transferring guilt to self or other!
We are all innocent. Our jobs as humans are to experience life! No one ever said experience joy but not pain; truth but not falsehoods; success without failure. Rather we are learning to experience life as it is so that we may learn to become catalysts of change for the better.
A wise man once said: You can't get to where you want to go until you are willing to be where you are. What's hiding behind your mask(s)?
