An Extraordinary Week

This is my birthday week and, wow, what a week it is! I am turning 60 years old, which is itself a significant milestone in my life. But in addition, this is the start of eclipse season with a powerful New Moon Solar Eclipse in the sign of Taurus on April 30th. As astrologer Lynn Hayes explains:

“New Moons are highly charged portals of energy where old patterns can be cleansed away with new intentions, and that is even more true at this lunation because Uranus, the planet of radical change and authenticity, conjoins the Sun and Moon. This eclipse is loaded with abundant positive energies since the Moon’s ruler Venus conjoins Jupiter – the two benefics, as they are called, working together for a burst of optimism and good fortune.”
(Her blog is astrodynamics.net)

Even if we don’t understand all the jargon, some points really jump out –

“old patterns can be cleansed away with new intentions”
“radical change and authenticity”
“abundant positive energies”
“a burst of optimism and good fortune”


I am feeling every single one of these aspects this week. Are you?

Take some time away from your regular activities, since our busy-ness can become a distraction from seeing what it is real and true in our lives. Go someplace quiet, it could be a favorite meditation spot at home or out in Nature, even sitting alone in your car. Focus on your breath as a way to calm your nervous system and to attune your attention. Breathe in for a count of 4 and breathe out for a count of 6. After several minutes, become aware of the energy signature of this time we are now in. Reflect on each of these four statements:
“old patterns can be cleansed away with new intentions”
“radical change and authenticity”
“abundant positive energies”
“a burst of optimism and good fortune”
 
What do you feel in your body?
What emotions come up for you?
How are your thought patterns affected?
What actions are you feeling led to take?

Sure, you can stay busy and let this eclipse season pass you by, like so many others in our world. But why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary?
