Meeting in the Middle

To sell your soul is the easiest thing in the world. That's what everybody does every hour of his life. If I asked you to keep your soul - would you understand why that's much harder?― Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

“I will never compromise Truth for the sake of getting along with people who can only get along when we agree.” ― D.R. Silva

“Ideology knows the answer before the question has been asked. Principles are something different: a set of values that have to be adapted to circumstances but not compromised away.” ― George Packer

Hugh Hefner died this week and I was not sad at all.  My mother would say it is not nice to speak ill of the dead, but I actually had a mini celebration within myself.   I saw his passing through the Veil as a symbolic sign of great transformation in the collective consciousness.  This is not a personal slight of him as a person, but what he represented in terms of treatment of the feminine within ourselves.  I have seen several news articles since his death, mainly celebrating his life as one of leading us out of sexual repression, and championing the rights of minorities.  However what few of these articles stated was that he did so for vast financial gain via the degradation and sexualization of the feminine.  It was a gaining power in the second chakra over the feminine in favour of the masculine.  In my humble opinion it was the old paradigm of “Power Over” in the bedroom, in order to feel powerful, which is not true power within at all as it was one sided.  However I will give credit where credit is due and say that Hugh’s life did allow a certain kind of twisted sexual expression to arise that was always there but carefully hidden and contained in humanity, so that it could be expressed and the shadow of it aired and washed like dirty laundry.  Now it is time to move on to a higher balanced level of holding our power, more unity and more partnership, and Hugh’s death signaled yet another turning point in the collective.  

After moving through the September 23rd Gateway alignment, a powerful vibration entered us via the cosmic energetic shift that this gateway brought.  And this shift represented a release of old timelines and a letting go of a large level of the Victim archetypal consciousness within us. Our masculine let go of shame, and a huge level of disgust and low self worth in himself.  Our feminine once again had to release pain, grieve and forgive.  This last week was a tough week emotionally for all but we can now move deeper into our heart and understanding of Universal Love. Our relationships are shifting again to be based more on the feminine values of love, respect and co-creation. So it seems fitting that Hugh left us as we regained a certain level of power in our second and third chakras.  Our feminine and masculine are more balanced within now, we feel more whole and can connect even more to Oneness. Goodbye Hugh, I will not miss you.

Going forward from here we move onto the next stage of our Ascension, which needs us to continue to step into a deeper and higher level of heart centered empowerment. We are bringing in new beginnings, and higher consciousness timelines that allows us to create our own reality with even less karmic baggage.

Feeling more freedom within,

Samantha

Psycho spiritual and physical symptoms and predictions for October 2017:  Starting this month these next two years will bring certain issues to a head that will include the themes of social and psychological motivations, needs, wants and desires.  Are your values really rooted in Service to the higher good?  Or are you just in circumstances and in relationships for ego based needs and for yourself?  If Divine Will is not part of it you will see certain things go off the rails as your soul continues its next level of growth.  Circumstances that trigger betrayal, abandonment, manipulation, addictions, fear of death, and various forms of spiritual, moral and material decay will rise to the surface for you to look at and find balance.  Nothing is black and white, and you will learn to shapeshift in each instance to find more solid footing.

On a higher level as you shift more to your center you may at times feel more disconnected from others for a period of time, but more connected to the cosmos, feel more in the flow, more connected to universal truth, your guides, angels, ancestors, the land you live on and the feel of the wind on your cheeks. It is important to release your pain, reconnect to everything, and open your heart and soul to the beauty in all things in every moment.  We are climbing, climbing, and while it is exhausting on one level we feel more empowered, more electric, more hurried, more faithful, more optimistic.  That is the absolute truth beyond the external chaos that will continue to swirl around you in October.

Your hard work and intentions will continue to create your reality - and then abundance will appear, slowly, slowly, abundance is coming in the form of beauty, love, friendship, hope and growth as we let go of the old material based paradigm.  And as you feel that abundance then share that with others - that is sharing Light.  

Yin and Yang, masculine and feminine are balancing within you, so your outside is appearing chaotic, frantic, unbalanced,  - as you master the ability to bring about substantive (important, meaningful, considerable) action - that which creates harmony, inspiration, possibility and creativity in  your life, then you will find creative solutions to challenges and projects.  Is what you are offering and contributing giving life and form, peace and substance, justice and freedom to the community as a whole?  Lots to chew on this month.  These are the themes that will continue to play out as you go forward.

Psycho physical symptoms include:  eye issues, heart palpitations, heart ache, lots of grieving, some sinus issues, tight neck and shoulders, fatigue, digestive upset, up and down sleep patterns, emotional volatility, brain re-wiring which may create muddled thinking and anxiety as we find middle ground and our own truth.  

Archetypes for this month: The Alchemist, The Warrior, The Mystic, The Spiritual Warrior, The Magical Child
