New Moon Capricorn, Solar Eclipse, Mayan Resonant Moon 7



~~WELCOME~~





INTRODUCTION
Greetings. My name is Helene Collard. I believe in the philosophy embodied within the Flower of Life (pictured above); that of a sacred interconnectedness amongst all living energy (humans, earth, animals, plants, sun, moon, stars, planets). This is about honouring what fundamentally connects us, rather than focusing on what separates or divides us. This is the Law of Nature and the Language of Energy; to accept that all living energy is always in a continual cycle of birth, death and rebirth and to begin to FEEL a person, place, space, sun, moon, planets...energetically as a basic form of connecting and communicating. I wish for all living energy to experience safety, love and abundance - the theory of positive interdependence is apt here; my survival and success is dependant on the survival and success of the collective. We all survive and succeed together.

 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I acknowledge the traditional custodians of this sacred land, the Widjabul Peoples of the Bundjalung Nation. I respectfully honour their continued care for this land and their knowledge of the Dreaming or Creation Story of this land.

I acknowledge the concept of cultural safety, where I am free to identify and share my values and beliefs, without fear of assault or judgement; spiritual or otherwise. Within this safety, I agree to be self-responsible for what I share and how that may affect others.

I acknowledge this space as non-denominational; where Beings of all faiths, religions, spiritual persuasions and curiosities are welcome.

As I will be sharing information I have researched, I acknowledge my printed sources; Ashtara, Robbyne LePlant and Dianne from Dreamspell Australia.


THE LAST 14 DAYS
Has anyone else felt lots of tension, resistance, anger, rage and uncertainty over the last 14 days? Like the very foundations of your world are shifting and changing, or perhaps your world being turned upside-down is more appropriate? Well do not despair as all this was literally written in the stars and planets. These transforming energies are helping you to; behave differently (i.e. ceasing stagnant patterns) and basically ruffle things up so much needed major changes can occur; personally and collectively.

NEW MOON, SOLAR ECLIPSE & RELIEVING PLANETARY CHANGES
These energies are of great benefit globally, they release all the built-up tension of the past months and offer us a brand new beginning. Rebirth, beginnings, a clean slate and the start of a new cycle are all very apt ways to describe this energy.


Now is the time to think about and visualise your LONG-TERM GOALS and PROFESSIONAL PURSUITS. You are asked to step into your soul's purpose and recognize your full potential. So I ask you; what are you here for? what are your natural skills and abilities? what or where do you feel drawn to? These energies are supporting you to get your act together and go for it.

If you are unsure where to begin, create some quiet space and set some intentions for improving your life and adding more joy and satisfaction to your world. The solar eclipse provides a sharp and decisive energy that will highlight with clarity, what action you need to take.

After the disruptions of the last 2 weeks, this is a new beginning. Infact the forward motion at play is quite strong and profound. So get going and ride the wave, so to speak.

Planetary changes last night (15 Jan) provided much needed relief to the harsh and difficult energy, which gives us the forward motion mentioned above. However give it a couple of days for the dust to settle, so by next week expect communications to return back to normal and things to generally feel lighter all round (Phew!). You can now sign contracts and make important decisions.


Relationships are strongly highlighted at this time with a harmonious alignment in the sky. A new relationship that is long-lasting and emotionally mature is very possible at this time.

These themes relate to your status in life, ambitions, reputation and goals. Engage in deep and powerful transformative communications. Experience the power of responsible, heart-based spoken truth - speak the truth of your deepest feelings and inner knowing. This is a time of spiritual growth.


Now is also time to take initiatory practical and organisational steps to manifest your ideal home.

And the last word here is; opportunities are often disguised as loss, you are asked to see beyond your 'loss' and move forward into expansion with ethics, integrity, truth and of course LOVE.


MAYAN RESONANT MOON 7 - TOTEM: MONKEY
On Sunday Jan 10 we entered Resonant Moon 7 in the Mayan Lunar Calender. The Monkey is our Totem for this Moon and it's characteristics offer us clues on what this Moon is about. The number 7 also provides information for this Moon; channelling energy, psychic experiences and growth through intelligence. Monkeys are hypothesised as our human ancestors and this Mayan lunar month, we are asked to tap into this evolutionary energy by; consciously adapting to our environment and becoming more clever. The message is evolve your mind - be open to spirit and let it speak through you. Let the Universe inspire you. The Monkey is clever, resourceful and communicative, as well as naturally inquisitive, mischievious and with a busy mind. So allow yourself to monkey around and have some fun!

If this is your first time here and you are unfamiliar with the Mayan Calender, please read previous post for basic information on understanding the Mayan Calender and "Wavespells".

WHITE DOG WAVESPELL - JAN 8-JAN 20
This Wavespell is all about LOVE. Share your heart with someone you love and someone may share with you their love. Essentially this is about matters of the heart and also loyalty.

BLUE NIGHT WAVESPELL - JAN 21-FEB 2
This Wavespell begins in a few days and is all about DREAMS. The message here is to give your dreams a chance to come true.

Since this is the time of new beginnings, intentions, goals, dreams, I encourage you to dedicate space to noting what you are working towards and how you can begin or continue to nurture those plans. And so these final words are appropriate here:

I am the Master of my own destiny
All I truly desire, I create
All I create, I create through love
All I create is for the higher good of all
I am truly blessed and grateful
for all the abundance in my life

Current Mayan Castle & Wavespell AND 2010 New Year Full Moon & Lunar Eclipse


Welcome

INTRODUCTION
Greetings and Salutations. My name is Helene Collard. I believe in the Flower of Life, a sacred geometric symbol that tells the story of interconnectedness amongst all living matter; humanity, earth, sun, moon, sky, ocean, animals... Furthermore, the Flower of Life depicts the wellbeing of all within this web, as maintained via quality and balanced relationships. This means acknowledging and consciously nurturing our connections; with ourselves, our fellow brothers and sisters, animal life, plant life, sun, moon, sky, ocean....all living energy.


ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I acknowledge the traditional custodians of this sacred land, the Widjabul Peoples of the Bundjalung Nation. I also acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land where I grew up, the Wurundjeri Peoples of the Kulin Nation.

I acknowledge the concept of cultural safety; where I am free to identify with and share my values and beliefs, without fear of assault or judgement; spiritual or otherwise. Within this safety, I agree to be self-responsible and aware of how this information may affect other people and living energies. I also set the intention of this space as non-denominational; where people of all faiths, religions, spiritual persuasions and curiosities are welcome to explore, connect and contemplate.


As I will be sharing information gained from research, I acknowledge my printed sources; Dianne from Dreamspell Australia, Robbyne LaPlant, Stella Woods, The Meditation Society of Australia and Daniel Sowelu.



MAYAN CALENDER

On 26 December we entered a new Castle in the Tzolkin (Mayan) Calender. Let's do a quick re-cap on the key terms for the Tzolkin Calender to help us understand what this means:

  • The 260-day Tzolkin is one of the oldest Mayan Calenders. The Tzolkin continuously and directly supports and guides us to consciously grow and evolve.
  • The Tzolkin neatly divides into 5 sections called Castles. Each Castle lasts 52 days. The Castles are like seasons, each with their own character.
  • Within each Castle are 4 Wavespells. Each Wavespell lasts 13 days. The Wavespells are creative cycles with specific themes - Wavespells help us consciously focus on particular aspects for personal and collective growth.
  • Within the 260-day Tzolkin are 56 Portal Days. Portal Days contain; heightened energy, access to amplified awareness and sensory experience, offer a greater opportunity for information exchange and multi-dimensional insights. Use Portal Days to activate dormant potential and evolutionary transformation.

Ok, now back to the update...on December 26 we entered the 4th Castle in the Tzolkin - 


Yellow Southern Castle of Giving (Dec 26-Feb 15)



Now remember, this is likened to a change of season. For those that felt the intensity of the last Castle (52 days), this one will come as a welcome relief.


Here's some information on the first 13-day Wavespell in this Castle - the one we're experiencing right now:


Red Earth Wavespell - Evolution (Dec 26-Jan 7)


This is the 13th Wavespell in the Tzolkin. As mentioned earlier, the duration of each Wavespell is 13-days and the 13th Full Moon for 2009 occurs within this Wavespell. So what is the significance of the number 13?

Number 13: Totality, Completion, Power, Realization, Attainment, Purification, Cleansing
13 brings completion to a time of testing, struggle and death. It symbolizes the death of oneself and the birth of spirit (spiritual growth). 13 is a full cycle in the Mayan, Celtic, Native American, Lakota and other Indigenous philosophies. 13 is also connected to sacred geometry, especially the Flower of Life, again highlighting the continual cycle of destruction and the creation of life.


So...back to the Red Earth Wavespell. Now is a time to focus on your personal growth - consciously strengthen yourself; spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. This is a time to ask 'how can I be the best I can be?' and then take direct action. Are you on your way to reaching your full potential? Make the necessary changes so you can answer 'Yes' to this question. Dedicate these 13-days (up to 7 Jan) especially to growing consciously - become stronger, smarter and more useful to the planet. Evolve and become closer to Earth. Rekindle the love you have for the Earth.
Portal Days: Sun 3rd Jan and Wed 6th Jan.
Also, Thurs 7th Jan is 13th day of the 13th Wavespell...


The second Wavespell in this Castle is;


White Dog Wavespell - Love (Jan 8-Jan 20)

And the message? Give someone you love your heart, and someone may give you some love. More about that closer to the date, for now it's evolution all the way (to love).


So while all this is happening, we've come into a New Year according to the Solar Calender. A New Year accompanied by a Full Moon and a Lunar Eclipse - very powerful stuff.


NEW YEAR 2010

The Full Moon is in Cancer, while the Sun is in Capricorn. To experience a Full Moon on New Years Day offers us powerful potential now and also acts as a precursor for the year ahead. 

Therefore, 2010 will be a peak year of illumination, inspiration, revelation and full power.


More specifically, 2010 is a YEAR OF REBALANCING MASCULINE & FEMININE aspects - 
of Self and the outer world.


Our personal and collective mission is to balance masculine and feminine aspects so both are peaking in strength and radiance and complementing eachother.


This year will illuminate 'what's really going on' on many levels - particularly the degree of balance between masculine and feminine aspects of Self and the World. Here's an idea of what I mean regarding masculine and faminine aspects;

FEMININE energy is likened to the Mother. Nurturing and compassionate. Possessing a deep understanding of the concerns of all souls; human, animal, plant and mineral. Deep empathy. Spiritual connections. Patience. Embracing feminine energy increases unity and connection.


MASCULINE energy is likened to the Warrior. Acting with complete confidence and faith while in communication with my spirit and conscience. The Warrior acts decisively and with clear purpose. Duty to my heart (my authentic and true Self) comes first....Reason, or consulting my objectivity and mental/emotional intelligence comes second. Here it is the flow of love that powers action and connects the Warrior to the infinite power of God/Universe/Great Spirit...The Warrior uses fear as a springboard for action and is empowered and strengthened through this process - transforming fear into clear and decisive action. The Warrior understands fear must be channelled into calm and positive action. Masculine energy is about the strength and power of the flow of love, about the example I set, how I empower and inspire others, how I rise above division and how I give others a hand up.


Both Men and Women need a balance of masculine and feminine energy.
At the core of feminine and masculine aspects is LOVE.

Masculine and Feminine aspects exist in everything, now and this year we are asked to 
ACT TO RESTORE BALANCE...reflect on the degree of balance in masculine and feminine aspects within; yourself, family and friends, local government, global governance, education system, legal system and more.


Now and this year, your lifestyle, work and relationships will indicate to you the degree of inner integration of masculine and feminine qualities. Review, Re-evaluate and make change if necessary! This is a year of accessing great power to make deep change on any level - use it to make real breakthroughs. Move beyond rigidity and dogma to embrace your creative visions - there is potential for real change.


January 2010 is huge for any healing work and combined with our current Mayan 'Evolution' Wavespell, right now is potent for any cleansing, releasing and processing of traumas, old patterns, belief systems, fears, guilt, hurts, insecurities and disappointments...


We also have major planetary movements to contend with, one in particular which brings fierce energy or passion, rage and arguments. The purpose of this resistance-like energy is to force us to align our actions and goals with our true nature. Expect underlying greivances to become apparent. It's very important at this time not to over-extend yourself, don't be afraid to say 'No'.


Finally this New Year we also experience a Lunar Eclipse! Here's a little on what that adds to the already spicy mix of energies we are offered;

LUNAR ECLIPSE
The Lunar Eclipse brings insight and clarity after months of turmoil and change. Phew! Expect to be more emotional and sensitive at this time. Eclipses allow us to gain insight to a new path being presented to us. This Eclipse in Cancer stirs deep waters within family and close friendships. You possibly have difficult choices to make at this time, be bold and face the reality and truth of all situations. The Eclipse arouses psychic sensitivity, spiritual instincts and emotional connectedness - discard outdated ideals or dreams as you experience awakening when clutter is cleared away.


I wish all living energy love, connectedness and abundance.


May The Long Time Sun Shine Upon You
God's Healing Light Surround You
And The Love Within You Guide Your Way

Thank you
