The Way Forward Is In Connection

The state of our lives is in big flux right now.  We are changing personally. Our families are moving through eventful moments. Our communities are in pivots. Many states in the U.S. are in chaos. Our countries are in revolutions.


One of the energetic threads that moves throughout all of these examples is the power witnessed in connection.


Our current connection paradigm SEEKS the experience of belonging. This has its yin and yang expression.  When you connect with others, you tend to band together in your alliances. This connection then actually fosters disconnection from those who don’t think, believe or feel the same as you. Then we use those disconnections to fuel separation as a way to unconsciously create experiences for those “not on our side” to feel the discomfort of disconnection and eventually give in to our way. Or, at the worst end, be forced into it. (Sound familiar with the state of our world?) 


In the past it has worked. 


Well, we are not in that energy anymore. The separation happening in the lack of connection is now spiritual warfare. We are actually seeking connection by disconnecting with others. Read that again. Yes. That is actually what we are doing. The act of disconnection is actually a cry for belonging.


Let's look a bit at what connection means to you. 


1 - What IS connection?  What does it mean to you? Pull out your journal. Write about it.


2 - Now, let’s look at another layer. What are ways in which we connect? Family, friends, work, various communities (cites, churches, groups,collectives)... Take a moment to consider all of the ways in which you connect. Write it out in your journal. 


3 - Let’s take a good look at our level of commitment to connection. How often are you choosing to consciously connect? How are you consciously connecting? Write that out too.


4 - Now, how does your way of connecting express in the sandbox with others? Is there separation experienced? Joy? Dive into it in your journal.


These areas are groundwork for where we are heading and,of which, we have already begun dipping our toes in the water. We are no longer experiencing joy, peace, sovereignty and love in old ways of connection. Old ways of connection require disconnection energy to be playing in the sandbox as well.  


We are seeing the breakdown of old connection paradigms all over the place. Are you witnessing it? It is time to look, to witness, so that you can shift YOU into a new level of connection. We can not uplevel within ourselves, that which we can not recognize; painful as it may be.


The new connection paradigm is this.


1 - There is no hierarchy.

2 - There is no separation.

3 - There is no disconnection to foster connection.

4 - There is no “my way” must be “your way”.

5 - There is no cancel culture.

6 - There is sovereign community.

7 - There is open-hearted acceptance.

8 - There is belonging; it is no longer sought.

9 - There is safety.

10  - There is compassion.


This is an ascended connection experience. We are all one; experiencing ourselves as individual expressions of the same light of creation. This is what we have forgotten and are now awakening from our amnesiac slumber. This is what we are seeking to create post the tower experience of the old. 


So look at your journal. Compare your experiences of connection to the new paradigm that is coming in. What do you see? Become aware and then grow.


Get ready. Set your table. Already have an open table that is set? Build a bigger one. You will need it.


Namaste.

Three Things to Know in This Month’s Energy

  1. JOY will be a theme energy emerging in May. As we navigated through the awareness of the release of linear time, the adaptation of experiencing our mastery selves, the choice of who we authentically are and the birthing of the opportunity for harmony through neutrality, this month brings another level of ALL of that through our full awareness and mastery presence.  The power portal for this will be JOY. This month will bring to you a massive push to find what you love and what you are good at coupled with what the world needs and how you can serve this need through your passionate action of your authentic self. And this comes to fruition through healing and wholeness. Allow all aspects of you to come forward. This reveals nuggets leading you to your higher experience of self.

  2. May is a choice month; specifically along the lines of “Ascension Consciousness”. You will have ample opportunity to choose who you are through witnessing events playing out in front of you. Experiences from April will bring new choices to you. Will you choose from joy? Will you choose the path for you that is expansive? As we experience more solar storm activity we will continue to be flooded with more crystalline light. This is shifting us from carbon-based to an elevated crystalline base activating dormant DNA strands. This has been occurring for some time now but we are in an amplification of this and the physical body will need some TLC. This month will be the beginning of big things. It will feel like everything is occurring at once; because in fact, it is. This new way of being will take some getting used to and it will require active presence. This will bring forward a reconnection to yourself in ways that you have not experienced before. Your divine mastery is required as you witness so many events play out that bring opportunity for frustration, head shaking and shaking of faith. Stay in a balanced, neutral state more likely to bring in the transformation of harmony versus conflict; connection versus separation.

  3. Important dates: 5/5 is the full moon total lunar eclipse in Scorpio. Watch for intense shadow to emerge on this power day(s) of deep transformation CHANGE. This is actually a triple energy of the 5 as this 5/5 lands on the 5th day of the week. Listen to your inner guidance to create change. This will be an emotional time with beautiful changes incoming; especially if you focus on LOVE. 5/14 Mercury retrograde completes, so the first half of the month will add to the deep transformation of the closing eclipse gateway. We remain in the decrescendoing energy of this until 5/31 when Mercury’s retrograde post-phase releases. Timelines will continue to be fluid. Earth events like earthquakes, tornadoes, floods will continue.
