In the Aftermath of the Eclipse / Mercury Rx - Carol Ann Ciocco

October 3, 2015 -
Hi Everyone, how are you? What a week we've had. It's been very erratic, with lots of chaos and has also provided a massive opportunity to step up to a new level of consciousness. 

I just wanted to drop in and quickly share some thoughts with you as we now integrate that Super Harvest Tetrad Total Lunar Eclipse that happened last weekend, Sept 27/28.

First of all, we had a total of 8 solar flares over the course of the past week surrounding the eclipse. Four of them were major and one of them in particular was so powerful it would have wreaked much havoc with our power grids IF it had been directed toward Earth. The combination of powerful solar flares, the eclipse energies, the full moon energies, and mercury retrograde -- all in one week -- created quite a whirlwind of energy.

The old world is disintegrating. It has been for a while of course, but with each passing step up the ladder of spiritual evolution, it begins to crumble even further, faster. I am talking about the world WITHIN you, and also the worlds you are building or participating in building in your immediate life.

Relationships, your job, your money, your career, your spiritual connection, your friendships, your creative expression... fill in the blank

You are building new worlds in at least one of these areas.

The key to surviving the chaos is to focus on the new world being born. Pour all of your mind, attention, focus and passion into everything you can do toward making that world real. FEEL how amazing the new will be, feel hope and joy and excitement and expectation -- then follow-up with joyful and inspired action.

That's the key because where we put our attention is the place where the energy that creates worlds alights in the physical plane. This has always been the case, but when standing in a whirlwind of chaotic energies, ramped up beyond what you've ever experienced before -- this becomes especially vital. 

It's hurricane season in the Atlantic Ocean right now. A Category 4 hurricane was bearing down on the East Coast of the U.S. all week. This is a metaphor for our mind and emotions. The wind --- our whirling thoughts and the drama of others being played out all around us. The water and flooding --- we can become overwhelmed by the emotions stirred up when a major energy shift occurs.

There is a solution: get into the zone of clarity, the Eye of the Storm where it is quiet and serene. In other words, get centered in your core, the Divine Flame that lives within you, breathe and simply allow the world to spin itself out around you.

And allow the emotions to wash over you and cleanse you, and the calm to settle your thoughts down.

To re-cap: these are some go-to coping skills to get us through this integration period:

(1) Focus on the new and exciting things being born and throw yourself into passionate action toward creating them.

(2) Stay centered in your Inner Light, within the Eye of the Storm.

I hope this helps a bit. ...

Oh, and speaking of the Eye of the Storm, this coming Friday October 9, we are going to fly right into the Eye of the Mercury Retrograde storm. Yep we are doing something daring, and convening for a rare glimpse into the peace at the core of the unpredictable Mercury Retrograde cycle.
