Staying Awake and Aware

Remember how powerful you are

We could all find ourselves feeling as though we are white water rafting at times this month as we negotiate the powerful energetics that make up October’s cosmic energy flow.

Over the last few weeks, we have moved even deeper into the ongoing transformational cycle of change and as we enter October the pace quickens further. The period of time from now until the end of the year will be one of very fast-moving energies and events which will be offering us the opportunity to step fully out of old patterns and embrace inspiring new choices for our future.

This is the month to be sure to stay awake and remember how powerful you are as a being of light and love. It is important that we keep our focus on the bigger picture rather than get swept up in the drama of change that will be playing out on the world stage.

The energies of change are intense, and we will all feel the places within us that still need to be loved, transformed and brought into balance. The outside world is just going through the same process of change but unfortunately some of the old games are having to be replayed in order for real change to take place.

It is important that we remember that we are each a part of the collective of humanity and our choices and responses are very important to allow things to change in as easy a way as possible.

Listen to Your Heart

We live in a world where misinformation and untruths are freely available and often indistinguishable from what is actually true. This is confusing, often deliberately so, so it is important that we feel into the vibrational frequency of the information that we are being offered and discern its quality. Your heart will always alert you to something that is untrue or misleading if you pay attention.

As you ride the roller coaster of change this month do so with your heart open and your attention on staying in balance and harmony within yourself as best you can. Any old stuff that you might encounter along the way then has the best opportunity to change and transform with ease and grace.

October’s Energetics

October looks set to be a ‘hold onto your hat’ month. The cosmic energy flow over the next few weeks is powerful and packed with momentum intended to offer us new choices and carry us forward at speed. We will be able to get the best from the opportunities on offer this month if we remember to stay aligned with our hearts and connected to our own strength, power and inner knowing.

New Moon Eclipse

October 2nd brought us a new moon ‘ring of fire’ eclipse in Libra and as I am sure you will have noticed this was a powerful event for all of us and one that we will continue to feel the effects of for some time to come.

This eclipse took place on the south node of the moon which represents our collective past and something that we are moving away from, so you may well find the eclipse energies encouraging you to make closure in some area of your life so that you are able to flow forward into new things more easily.

With the eclipse in Libra this may well mean a change in how you interact in relationship situations of all kinds, including the one with yourself. Where there is an ending there is always an opportunity for a new beginning, especially on a new moon as powerful as this one, so do be sure to state clearly to yourself what it is that you would like to initiate over the coming weeks and months.

Pluto Moving Forward again

On October 11th Pluto stations direct at 29 degrees of Capricorn and will slowly move through the final degree of Capricorn until it moves into Aquarius on November 19th, where it will stay until March 8th, 2043.

Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 and as it moves through the last degree of this sign for the final time on this visit, we may well find ourselves reviewing some of the deeply transformational scenarios that its journey through Capricorn has presented us with during this time.

Power and control issues and authoritarian structures with agendas to maintain the status quo may all become more visible again where transformation is still needed to allow something new to take their place. Whatever happens stay in your heart and just observe.

Full Super Moon in Aries

Remember to breath deeply, stay awake and aware, and allow flow so that this energy can move through you. Exercise, walking, dancing, gardening etc would all help with this.

As this storm of energy passes through, we will find ourselves in slightly calmer waters towards the end of the month that will allow us to breath and take stock, ready to move on into something new.

The Energies of Libra

Each year during October the sun shines onto the Earth through the constellation of Libra, magnifying its energetic influence, and providing an energetic backdrop for all the other planetary alignments and influences in the cosmic line-up for the month.

Astrologically Libra is represented by the sign of the scales and its airy energy brings a focus to the balancing of opposites and an emphasis to the qualities of harmony, balance, justice, and fairness in all areas of life.

At a higher level this energy holds a positive template that we can draw upon, to help us upgrade, restructure and evolve our experience of relating, both internally and externally. In fact, a perfect antidote to some of the more assertive, conflict driven energies that are part of the energetic mix this month.

Remember the Bigger Picture

It can feel challenging at an everyday level when we find ourselves caught up in fast moving energies that are encouraging us to change, let go and move on with the flow. To be able to negotiate this type of energy in the best way possible we need to remember to keep the bigger picture of what is going on in mind.

Everything in our universe, including planet Earth, is expanding in consciousness and moving up the evolutionary spiral. For us on Earth this is a move that is taking us from the polarity-based consciousness of third dimension into the heart-based, unity consciousness of fifth dimension.

High frequency light and evolutionary codes have been flooding onto the planet for sometime now, dissolving density, raising our consciousness and helping us to transform those things that we cannot take with us into the next phase of life on our planet.

At a soul level we all know this and are excited to be here to help with the vast changes that are taking place. We as incarnated beings are a very important part of the process and those of us that have chosen to be here at this time all have soul gifts and experiences that we have brought to help the process unfold. But first we have to wake up and then we have to stay awake so that our soul gifts and experiences can flow fully into our everyday reality.

Anchoring Planetary Change

One of our jobs as physical anchors for this planetary change is to facilitate the transformation of any old patterns relating to the 3D matrix that we carry in our energetic systems. What has been created at a physical level can only be uncreated at a physical level. This is why our choices of vibrational frequency and our ability to allow the release of old patterns is so critical at this time.

It can feel uncomfortable and a bit daunting when old patterns that we thought we had dealt with years ago resurface and require further work and transformation, or we hit a block with a pattern that we are working with and something completely new and previously unseen comes floating into awareness.

In the energies we have this month either of these scenarios might well be possibilities, so remember to step back, move into your heart as best you can, keep the bigger picture in mind and recognise that this is what you are here for and that a part of you knows exactly how to deal with it, however challenging it might be.

Find Your Point of Balance

Inhabit Your Body Fully

Balance is an important theme this month, especially since we are in the flow of Libran energies. In order to stay balanced, awake and fully in our power we need to anchor ourselves firmly and consciously into our physical body. So many of us carry patterns of resistance to being fully present on Earth in our physical body and as a consequence fail to take full ownership of the beautiful and amazing vehicle that is our earthly home.

The choice of being fully present in your body allows the flow of energies that connect you with Mother Earth and with Source to fully engage, creating a spiral of light and love that holds you in balance and connection. Your soul and multidimensional self can also communicate more fully through this loop and then it is far easier for you to allow anything that needs to transform to do so, because you are in touch with the bigger picture and your place within it.

Daily Focus Helps

The more we focus on this connection the more it will activate, so if you feel a need to enhance it, take a little time each day to work with it consciously. Start by taking some nice deep breaths and allowing the breath to take you deeper into your body. Keep breathing yourself in until you can feel yourself sitting firmly behind your eyes, just relaxing and getting comfortable.

Notice if there is any resistance or points of tension in your physicality and breath into those, allowing them to release. Pay attention to any emotions or thought forms that might be present. Be aware of the central column of light that runs through your body from your soul star above your head to your earth star below your feet, making sure that you have a grounding chord of light running from your base chakra to your earth star and that you can feel the earth star connecting into the magnetic core of Mother Earth.

Then take your awareness to your heart chakra and energise the flow of light that flows in from your soul star all the way through your column of light and out through your earth star circling through your energy field back up to your soul star. Then put your attention on the flow of light coming up from your earth star through your column of light to your soul star circling it through your field back to the earth star. Allow this flow to remind you of who you truly are and take you into a place of greater peace, balance and harmony.

Base Chakra: grounding & presence: This is the combination to use when you know that you have deep patterns related to being fully present in your body. It will help to dissolve old patterning, release trauma and fear and balance your base chakra so that it is able to function more fully.

Earth Star: Your earth star is the energy centre situated just below your feet, that connects directly into your base chakra and the magnetic core of the Earth. Use this essence if you have difficulty connecting with your earth star or feeling anchored onto the planet.

Feeling Safe: Many people still carry the legacy of trauma from past lives that make them reluctant and often fearful to fully inhabit their current body. This is the essence to use to help clear these old patterns and experiences away so that you can enjoy being who you are in this life more fully.

Balancing Masculine & Feminine Energies

Another very important point of balance is created through our ability to allow our inner feminine to work in partnership with our inner masculine. We each have both of these energies present within us and in order for us to be able to move fully into unity consciousness they must be working together in an equal, balanced relationship.

Each needs the other to be able to function fully and we are all currently working on this in one way or another. The feminine aspect of creation has been ruthlessly and systematically suppressed for a long period of time and is only now able to come forward in its fullness again.

We all carry many wounds, traumas and uncomfortable memories associated with the suppression of the feminine, all of which are now in the process of being released and healed. The masculine also carries deep wounds and scars from this experience because this aspect of creation cannot function in balance without its feminine partner.

In the energies we have this month some of these old wounds and the patterns we have created as a result of them, may well surface for transformation. If they do just be kind to yourself and allow them space to reveal what needs to be seen and transformed within you.

Checking Your Balance

If you want to connect in with how the balance of these two energies sits within yourself take a moment to breath yourself fully into your body and set your intention to be grounded and present. Then put your attention on the flow of energy coming in from your soul star and allow it to flow in through your crown chakra and then split the flow so that half of it flows down the left side of your body and the other half through the right.

Pay attention to how you experience this. Is the energy able to flow freely through both sides of you or is there resistance on one side or the other. Sit in the flow until you sense that both feel balanced. You may also get some insights here into why the resistance might have been present.

Masculine Essence; strengthening masculine: this is the essence to use when you are finding it difficult to use your masculine energies in a full and balanced way. This might show up as a difficulty taking action in the world, bringing projects to fruition or a dislike of authority figures.

Inner Unity: when you have brought a degree of balance to both your inner feminine and masculine energies this essence is the one to use to help them work together as a balanced partnership.

Forgiveness: working with the legacy of old patterning surrounding feminine and masculine energies can sometimes leave us in a place where we feel a need to find forgiveness inside either for ourselves or for another that we have shared difficult experiences with. Use this essence to help you release, forgive and move on.
