"What burns away if I choose my truth over someone else's approval?"
Hi Friend
This is your friendly reminder of our special online class tomorrow - which will be recorded and available even if you areunable to attend Live.
As a taster, we are living in a time where we are experiencing increasing cpmpression of evolutionary time, resulting in rapid polarisation, amplified contrasts of light/dark, unity/separation and fear vs love. The net result of this is that paradox (or the ability to hold 'multiple seemingly contradictory truths) is intensifying. With the dynamic energy of the Fire Horse, this can result in destabilisation and fragmentation of old structures and identities. The individuals capable of holding paradox remain
coherent and become the bridge-builders of new paradigms.
"January's class was excellent with great insights and I found it very helpful"
In our special class we will be exploring the concept of maintaining dynamic equilibrium and coherence in a world where the pressure of external forces is resulting in ever-increasing personal instability - and we will explore some practical elements that will support you through this powerful year!
Every monthly class is unique and coherently aligned with the prevailing energies. Register via the link below:
_________________________________________________________________________
As many have noted, we have both a new moon as well as annular solar eclipse heralding the incoming year of The Fire Horse,as define by ancient Chinese astrology. In fact, the last time there was a Fire Horse year was 60 years ago (1966). In Chinese tradition, this is not simply another Horse year; it is one charged with amplified
intensity. Historically, Fire Horse years have been associated with
dramatic social change and strong personalities. In 1966, for
example, the beginning of the Cultural Revolution in China coincided
with a Fire Horse year, reinforcing the perception of fiery upheaval and
transformative energy. One of the best descriptors of this year's potential, is this one I found which also links it with dragon energy :
"In ancient
Chinese mythology, when the world’s old patterns could no longer hold, a being
called the Dragon-Horse ~ Longma 龙马 ~ would rise from the Yellow River.
Scaled like
a dragon, fast as a horse, it carried on its back a new cosmic map: a sign that
Heaven was ready to rewrite what had grown rigid, unjust, or out of balance.
It appears
when systems have hardened, when power has become disconnected from life, when
the old order must make way for the truth. In the earliest texts, its arrival
marks a shift in destiny ~ the end of one era and the beginning of another.
Fire Horse
energy is not about destruction for its own sake: it is about clearing what no
longer serves.
It is the
force that pushes through fear, stagnation, and inherited structures, making
room for justice, breath, and new possibility to enter.
As we move
into this new year, we run alongside the Fire Horse" This sums up rather succinctly where we find ourselves in our world today, and how we stand at the threshold of new and bold times. This also segways beautifully into the theme of this month's special class, "Dynamic Equilibrium and the Power of Paradox". Here we will be focusing on the potential that exists within the tension generated by being able to hold a 'neutral' position between the polarities of multiple dualities - without collapsinng in to either one of them.
Very exciting times indeed, yet requiring constant awareness and active, continual recalibrations in order to hold a stable core.
Joining as always is by donation, and if you are unable to join us Live you will have access to the recordings afterwards.
Here's to a year of fast-paced potential, realised via waves of enhanced creativity and social change!!
And don't forget to check out the multiple offerings on the new Alchemy of Scent website where I am featuring essential oil sales at excellent prices, along with specially curated blends already receiving excellent feedback - especially the natural anti-fungal foot treatment and the special sleep blend :) There's more in the pipeline that is already getting good reviews & still to be listed in the store, in particular a natural anti-inflammatory/analgesic blend that has been re-ordered (and which I used to support my own healing after surgery). Lots more to come, so sign up for notifications of new products at www.thealchemyofscent.co.uk The essential oils can be a powerful ally through the times ahead.
Love always
