Growing Pains


There are challenging energies in our world currently that are hard at work trying to suppress, oppress, control, and eradicate.  This aggressive lashing out is the ailing symptom of a long-buried wound and lack of awareness that have long been in place in our humanity.  It is an anti-life energy because it has been allowed to stay covered and to devolve into deep infection and ill health.  These ailing energies are struggling.  They are on their way out.  They are sounding loudly because they have been brought to the surface and revealed for what they are.  There is nowhere for them to go but away.  They are desperate because their power is waning, and they are in full-on expressive fear mode.  Now is the time to remain calm and neutral about these events, and to even have compassion as these energies burn themselves out.  The wound has been lanced, the infection is working its way out, and it will eventually be fully released.  This release process is resulting in some very intense things happening on our planet right now.

As disturbing as this all appears to be, it is not the ultimate Truth.  This too shall pass.  After the lanced wound has been cleared, the healing and rebuilding process will come forward.  In fact, there are already signs of energy being poured into creative solutions for problems we presently encounter.  This creative energy is pro-life.  It is the same life force energy that prompts green leaves and flowers to come to life in the springtime, or after a fire, drought, or other catastrophe.  This time of intensity will not last.  Even at this present time many courageous people are nurturing a heart-centered and loving energy, and they are offering positive alternatives that bring a counterbalance to the current challenges on our planet.  There is so much good happening now if we take the time to shift our focus, see it, and honor it.

"Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it."

"To heal is to touch with love that which was previously touched by fear."
