Alchemizing the “Ugly” Packages
Welcome to the energy of the new moon! In concert with this energy, we are invited to set intentions for what we wish to create in our lives and for who we are becoming.
To set intentions, we are encouraged to reflect on our experiences - the good, the bad, and the ugly. And, we are reminded that sometimes the most precious gifts come from the most unlikely and unpleasant of experiences. Indeed, extremity of contrast allows us to find desires we otherwise most likely would not.
While we are aware that there is no need to suffer or struggle in the new energy, humans have learned through pain and suffering for a very long time. We are invited to reframe the suffering in our lives and, in so doing, to harvest the growth, wisdom and understanding that we garnered through the challenging experiences.
To harvest these blessings, we must allow ourselves to feel the anger, resentment, grief, guilt, shame, etc. that accompanied these experiences and left indelible impressions upon us. We do not have to forget or even forgive - however, we are invited to come into a different relationship with what happened so that we are no longer trapped by it or giving it the power to reign over our lives. In this way, we come to a new level of peace with our pasts that allow us to step forward and create a different future for ourselves.
Spirit comes forth to remind us that what we experience will lead to a deeper appreciation of beauty in our lives. Although it may seem hard to believe, it is possible to come into gratitude for all of the things that happen in your life. When you have reached this place, you will truly recognize the power of transmutation and alchemy, and the ability you have to actively co-create your reality with Spirit.
Take the time to meditate today with Vulture Spirit. Allow Vulture Spirit to show you the value in all that exists and that nothing is wasted, but rather everything supports the cycles of life. Ask Vulture Spirit and your guides to reveal to you anything that needs to be forgiven, integrated, transmuted and/or released.
Do you recognize that everything is energy and thus is neither good or bad and may change form with ease? Are you struggling to come to peace with your past? What are you holding onto?
Are you willing to work with your guides to see this experience(s) through a different lens?
Are you willing to release yourself from anything that has been imprisoning you mentally, emotionally, or spiritually? As we discussed a few days ago, if it is challenging to be willing, are you willing to become willing?
Also, consider who you are now and who you wish to become. What intentions do you wish to set in the energy of this new moon? You may wish to include these intentions are part of a ritual of saying goodbye to the past and hello to your now and future. In this and all things, you are deeply loved and supported.
