The Sun is a symbol of our Unique Wondrous Eternal Spirits. It is now moving into a position in the zodiac where it makes a great geometric square-like shape in the Sky with Saturn, Pluto, and Uranus. This configuration is a Diamond Floating in the Above, a time for personal and collective realization and shifting. What does this signal and mean?
Just as I was pondering what to write in this forecast, an elegant black and yellow Butterfly floated in through the open front door of my home here in Santa Fe. It fluttered about and settled on a window high above my reach in the kitchen. There was a stillness in the air.
In response to its gentle and unexpected entry, my first thoughts were concerned with how I might tenderly help the Butterfly on its way back out the door, back again into the garden of flowers. There it could dance in the light of the Sun and feast among the nectars of the life-giving plants.
As I quietly watched, it slowly opened and closed its delicate wings, and a feeling came to heart - it had come with a purpose. As I tuned in further to its presence, I understood that it had journeyed into the casita in order to speak about this time in Humanity's transformation. It was a messenger.
Spirits and Nature Beings convey information intelligently through non-linear and symbolic means. They emanate this knowledge from their own Essences through an internal radar-like broadcast of subtle energy. We can pick up the extrasensory communication with our own internal subtle or Spirit senses, which translate the information into something understandable to us.
This unconventional form of communication is the old ancient way of interacting intimately with these amazing beings of Nature and the unseen worlds. We did this as young children, but we often forget that we did. We can learn to remember this natural gift.
The Butterfly talks of the personal transformation that is available to us. We no longer need to constrict ourselves in our old suffocating cocoons of habit. In the wake of the summer solstice of June 21, we are being reminded to identify with who we really are as beautiful and gentle Beings who can flourish on the Earth together.
The Butterfly speaks to releasing false beliefs, fears, pains, and habits that make us squelch our fun, joy, and inner guidance. This is a rich and enlightening movement into the wholeness of our individual Spirits. It is learning how to embody our Essences just as the Butterfly freely embodies and shares its Essence.
Personal transformation feeds our well-being because we are aligning ourselves with who our hearts know us to really be. Our emotions and physical bodies like this and in turn, we feel stronger and clearer. As the Sun and planets make their Diamond in the Above, Butterfly brings the message home: "It is safe and beautiful to feel and be the Genuine You."
