Dear Friends,
Time seems to by flying by. It’s already the end of January. The year of the rabbit in motion.
I went to see my dear friend, who’s an osteopath, as my left shoulder had been hurting for some time. We spent 90 minutes together and the message conveyed was about cultivating life’s journey as a gardener. Being in acceptance of slow growth is requiring patience beyond any of my past experience. My romantic relationship, my two boys and Qineticare are teaching me how to trust in the perfection of life and its timing. Wow…it’s been really challenging to embrace the new pace of change as it plays out.
What areas of your life are nudging you to be more patient and trusting in the perfection of life? How does it feel to surrender to this way of being? Once again surrender as a becoming not a giving in or giving up. Thinking Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman comes to mind as I transition into this experience.
The other message being relayed is to “surrender any impatient claim for what I cannot yet have” while being asked to “soften my allegiance to my intellectual mind in favor of my heart knowing.” Letting go of my “desire to drive the unfoldment of my desires into form.” I am clearly entering space that makes me feel that I am out of my league.
What comes up for you as I share the above? What messages are you receiving that resonate with the above? What are you being asked to consider?
The water rabbit, they say, is a symbol of hope, harmony, and peace and invites us to slow down, rest, and focus on what is really important…
What is truly of most importance to you?
With love and gratitude,
