When we look into the cracked mirror, the first thing to understand is that we are the ones who cracked it. The person that used to be reflected in that mirror is breaking out of the image of a life previously lead. Looking into a cracked mirror can be extremely disorienting. All we long for is for the pieces to come back together.
However, the fractured reflection will begin to release its pieces and as it does, a fully formed image that has been developing underneath will begin to reveal itself to us.
You will begin to see yourself anew and the people, places and things that reflect our new image will show themselves. Until then, we gaze into our fractured reflection.
How do we handle this? How do we manage losing pieces of ourselves in the reflection of our life? And while that's happening, we are really not getting much of a clue as to what is ahead in our future. We are moving through blindly and trusting that a new reflection will appear. At least we are hoping for something to begin to reveal itself in the outside projection of our inner self.
To hold yourself steady during this time, it is wise to create frequent moments of peace and stillness as you calm the nervous system in your body. In fact, focusing on your body and what it wants and needs is a good place to start. The body does not lie and communicates pretty effectively. It is only our mind that chooses not to listen until we can no longer bear it.
So listen to your body. Find those places and spaces in your life where you can regroup and just breathe. Pay attention to when you do not feel safe in your body as it is giving you the heads up that where ever or whomever you are around is now out of alignment with your more authentic reflection.
The astrological clock, the one that lets us know what it's time for, is ticking loudly. There seems to be one alarm clock going off after another! As we examine the planetary influences at play, one of them is letting us know that the last 7 years of systematically removing what is no longer a true expression of our identity is coming to an end. This ending is putting us under immense pressure and that is Chiron at 29 degrees in Aries.
At the other end of the spectrum, we have Neptune and Saturn in the early degrees of Aries. They are not revealing much to us as to what is being developed. You can blame Neptune for the confusion. It will soon go retrograde and hopefully, this will help diminish the fog so we can access awareness. To have this very magical and spiritual energy in your body is a unique experience for us all! We sit in the mist of Neptune as we wait for inspiration. Thankfully Saturn is helping us to slow down and make conscious choices. One of those choices needs to be stillness, pausing and just being.
This month, Chiron will take its first peek-a-boo into Taurus on the 19th to let us know the vibe is changing. Where are we misaligned regarding our body (safety/health), resources and nature? Time to readjust so that you can reconnect! At the end of the month, Jupiter steps into Leo and we will be invited to take a look at how we have been overdoing and over giving.
In addition, Uranus at the early degrees of Gemini feels like one long communication scramble! Surprises, changes in direction, sudden developments and insights, and changing your mind are prominent right now due to aspects designed to get us to see clearly.
With Mercury and Jupiter in Cancer all month, this is a good time to discuss what are needs are. We can be as giving and loving as we want, but we have needs too. What are they and how do they need to be met? As Jupiter finishes up its 12 month tour of Cancer, it's time to come to a conclusion on what you have learned with regard to loving on yourself.
Let's not forget that Pluto has just turned retrograde at 4 degrees Aquarius. Pluto will be a strong influence for years to come as we figure out where our power is and how to use it responsibly. In the outer world, we can clearly see the toxic abuse of Pluto power. The healthy version does not seek to dominate others. Power, I mean true power, is always found within.
And we are just talking about June!
With this amount of frequency shifts and vibrational restructuring, the chakra system needs to readjust to what is coming while dealing with what is in our present reality. Both the Feminine chakras (back of the body) and the Masculine chakras (front of the body) need to be energetically and periodically addressed as we move through these shakes ups.
So you see, you are not crazy. We are living in an extreme Soul development cycle.
For this month, begin to turn your focus to your body, your health, your resources and what you consume (people/places/things). It is time for a re-haul. It is tied to understand what is no longer healthy or reflective of your current level of self-worth. The question we need to be asking ourselves is this - do I feel safe in my body? And if not, what will help me come into a peaceful state? Then, make it happen.
One of the best ways to calm the nervous system is to be in nature. As I write this, I am sitting at the beach. The waves are curling onto shore, and the cool breeze is blowing and scented with ocean air. The seagulls are calling and the sea grasses are waving. Not a cloud in the sky.
A perfect reset.
Wishing you moments of peace!
Much love, Lisa
