"All things serve the Beam." ~Roland Deschain, The Gunslinger

Dear Friends,

As seems always the case these days, things are shifting. The tectonic plates of my life, ever moving. It used to be that they went mostly unnoticed, until they rub just the right way and an earthquake shows up unexpectedly. Now-a-days, I find that I notice the tiniest scrape, knowing that my internal seismograph is letting me know that something bigger is coming.

I used to enjoy finding myself in tension around what might be happening, I used to churn in my mind, think of all of the possible scenarios I could, then develop strategies to manage them. I would do all of this internally and without communicating and spin mentally and emotionally while I wait for others to decide what they are doing, so I can then decide what I want/intend to do. I'm learning this is not the way.

I don't know if I've figured out "the way", but I'm putting my Fool hat on and I'm stepping out anyway. I'm trying new things like a Page of Wands, willing to put it out there over and over again till I find what works. These days, I know that what works is also temporary, so I'm trying to stay flexible with what arises, knowing that my strategic mind will have to shift again and again and again. A sort of perverse job security for my very active mind, if you will.

What I have discovered is that I should ask for what I want, especially when things are beginning to shift. This shifting, whether it be mine or another's, is the prime time to put in a request for our desires. These shifting sands are the place of possibility, and our requests might be just what another person needs to hear to get what they truly want, too.

So here I am. I'm putting my desires out to the universe and to the people who intersect with them. I'm looking forward to being surprised by what arises. Thank you, Cosmos (the Beam), for always supporting our highest evolution, whether it be through the pits of hell, or soaring over the tallest mountain tops. We are served by every experience, and I aim with all my heart to remember that more frequently.

With love,
Ginger (aka Rachel Lazarus)
