Practice, practice, practice and all is coming
Wowers, what an enlightening and liberating moon this has turned out to be. I knew it was coming, building up to the Spring Equinox when we’ll really propel forwards with the new moon in Aries and the beginning of the new Zodiac cycle ahead.
Times are changing, as if we are awakening, from the big sleep, which was Covid and the pandemic, like a bomb sent in to see which way we’d flee, to spirit or to fear. Whether we’d give away our power to science and more of what’s been, other people’s opinions and the pressure of being judged for decisions made, or if we trusted in intuition and heart, dug deep, stood our ground and let our inner knowing guide us.
It feels that we can now let go of all that has been, of the weight of decisions made, as more of the lies are revealed and we increasingly see that what has been is a little bit broken, that it doesn’t always work and that maybe there is a new way that has not yet been, that was once improbable, but now entirely possible.
I noticed that Valpys has now given up its plastic till protection, slowly the fear has dropped away, the worry that the Covid strain would strengthen or there’d be a further lockdown. It’s like we’re opening the curtains, taking a big stretch and asking ourselves, “which way next?”.
And the universe has responded by sending in a huge wave of energy that has been encouraging us to let go, spring clearing, clutter going, freeing up space in our lives for the new. I know I’m not the only one who has been clearing out books and clothes and files, especially those clogging my hard drive, which is perhaps reflective of what also needed clearing from my mind and with that, the change has flowed in.
As you know, I have been keen to simplify and I have started making changes not only in my life generally but at Beinspired too. Sadly Katie is poorly and has had to step back from Beinspired (I miss you Katie, hope you get better soon) but fortunately her big sister, Steph, who many of you know, as she managed Beinspired’s website and social media for me a good few years ago now, has stepped in to help me out and this has given me the opportunity to make changes, that I didn’t know needed changing until the dust settled after Cornwall.
Within us we have all we ever need to know, all the wisdom and knowledge of the universe. And this is the reason I love Reiki and yoga, because they take us to that place, and all they ask of us is to show up and practice. Whenever I need healing or I know that change is needed, I throw myself into Reiki and onto my mat and inevitably, after the tears and the breaking down and the letting go, the new begins slowly, ever so slowly to emerge.
The process absolutely cannot be rushed. The ego may well try to rush it. But there is a divine timing to everything and if the ego is in service to the soul, then we can surrender to divine timing and allow our unfolding in just the right time.
Exciting times ahead my friends,' “practice, practice, practice and all is coming” Pattabhi Jois used to say, quoting from the Bhagavad Gita. Reiki and yoga are both practices and the more you practice them, the more you experience the benefit.
Meanwhile down in the greenhouse, I made the most of the waxing moon energy to plant some seeds that I dowsed and needed to be planted now, and I hope that the temperatures rise soon. Still, those seeds I planted on the waning moon are coming through, peas and courgettes, thyme and lots of swiss chard. The season is beginning and I couldn’t be more excited. I love growing and hands in the earth, and seeing what might come through, it is exciting - but then it’s generally exciting right now.
A big congrats to Al Crosland for qualifying as a yoga teacher (with distinction), and a big thank you to Kristin for her lovely kundalini classes and to all of you who have been attending our classes, and a big well done to those of you who have stepped up as Reiki Masters this month, and Reiki practitioners too, ushering in more light and healing and raising the collective vibration in the process.
Happy practising and happy full moon and happy changes taking place!
