What’s Up with the Heavens?
I am no astrologer, but I tend to be sensitive to the subtle energies. After having a week of wild shifts, things not functioning, and sequences not behaving in their usual manner, I resorted to asking a question of my friends on Facebook. Is Mercury in retrograde again, I asked, knowing from the general word I hear that it was not. But it felt like that only more so. This generated a whole dialogue. My friends commiserated and a couple educated me and gave me some reading material. I read it, and thought, “yes, that’s what seems to be happening.”
Have you been noticing any especially wild energetic occurrences for you?
In the “ether”
Yesterday, I took the plunge and joined Facebook. I’d read one too many articles in the New York Times about it without being able to really understand what I was reading. What an interesting phenomenon — seeing images and reading words of friends and acquaintances through space (friends around the world) and time (friends from way back).
Tomorrow, I will be speaking on a webcast to more than a 1,000 people.
I’ve gotten thousands of hits on this blog.
This is a lot of shared energy without knowing most of those with whom one I am sharing. It is shifting space and time as I think about it. In the computer world, we say or write about what we are thinking as we type or speak into the computer, and then our words and energies shift and take on their own power as they extend out instantly to anyone who chooses — intentionally or randomly — to receive them.
I think the more we are in the ethereal world, the more we need simultaneously to make certain we are grounded.
Sculpture Around Town (Dan Flavin at the Hirshhorn)
When I find myself wrestling with thought or emotion, it always helps to go look at art (when a walk in nature is not available). It the combination of walking and seeing that opens me and invites me to find more clarity and perspective.
What do you do for yourself (in addition to formal meditation and asana practice) when you need to get some perspective/deeper wisdom?
