Close
friends of mine just had a baby—bringing forth an amazing new Being on
this planet. This picture of Everly captures the joy of beginning the
journey of life on Earth. Those of us who are aware of the energetic
changes since 12/21-23/12, and who are working toward a new society of
Oneness and abundance for all are both the infant new humanity, and the
mother of that infant. It’s been over six months since Birth2012, and
we are now at the stage where a mother’s hormones are beginning to come
back into balance, and the feelings of one’s world being turned upside
down are settling into acceptance. The analogy offers some suggestions
for how best to navigate this time in our collective and personal
lives.
PATIENCE: There is a Rune (Jera/Harvest) about which Ralph Blum says, “There is no way to push the river; equally you cannot hasten the harvest. Be mindful that patience is essential for the recognition of your own process, which in its season leads to the harvest of the self.” There is another saying I have on my wall: Patience in the present, Faith in the future, Joy in the doing. We are embodying the new energies that are now available and restructuring our whole human being. In transformation the energy always comes first, then a shift in consciousness/belief, and then shifts in the outer world. Without patience we cannot hold the trust necessary to create changes we desire.
PRESENCE: A new parent can experience an absorption and connection with their child beyond any they have experienced before. They are totally present with this new Being, and all other concerns or projects or thoughts are nonexistent for those moments. The guidance that the infant receives and the response to its needs set the template for that Being’s life. We are now setting the template for the future of humanity. One of the greatest factors that damages a child of an alcoholic or drug addicted mother is the lack of emotional presence. The child feels abandoned (our greatest fear) even when the parent is physically present, and the brain neurons that produce attachment and bonding are not developed. In the extreme this creates what is labeled Reactive Attachment Disorder. Our newly developing Universal Selves need as much of our focused attention as we can muster. Constantly asking ourselves what we really need, what message our life experience is giving us now, and what attitudes to hold that would sustain and nurture our new Being will make the evolutionary journey much gentler, and increase the unfolding of our possibilities.
POSSIBILITIES: A new infant brings such joy, and a part of that is because we are opened to touching in to the realm of unlimited possibility. We dream of all that could be in the future for this child and therefore in our lives as well. The last Rune (Odin/The Unknowable) asks, “For how can you exercise control over what is not yet in form? And what is coming to be can never arise from the known.” Envision beyond what has been present. Understand that in each moment all possibilities are present; that whatever your mind believes limits the possibilities unless your mind moves into knowing that it does not know. We are now creating from the purest energy of our Being if we can move beyond the fear of the unknown, pause and open to all possibilities.
PAUSE: A new parent can be exhausted. Rest and recharging are essential whenever there is a moment free of the demands of the dependent child. Thomas Huebl (German mystic) calls it the Competency of Silence and sees it as one of the two keys to authentic awakening and evolution. A practice(s) that allows you to enter your stillpoint (the place beyond mental knowing into universal knowing), your Essence, and connect with Source and the life force is imperative to bring the “juice” and nurturing necessary for the journey toward becoming our transformed, transmuted, possible Universal Self.
