AAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH!

While we are yet two months away from the Winter Solstice, aka the longest night of the year, I find that we are plunging quickly and deeply into what feels like darkness in our personal lives. You might be feeling it too. The shape-shifting of our shadows, morphing so they're harder to detect, heavy feelings, emotional outbursts, and sometimes a feeling of "lost". All of that, and mix in some serious psychic vibes that have me seeing visions and having crazy big downloads, and you have a recipe for deep down tired.

Even so, I'm so excited about my life. I'm so thrilled with all of the things that we will be doing and sharing in the next year. But right now is not the time of seeds and growth. Now is the time for the final harvest. The last reaping of our crops from the year, and in many cases the reaping of our egos, masks, and pre-conceived notions about what should be.

The letting go has been a theme for the last several months, and I feel that we are finally coming to the deep piece. That thing we really didn't want to see in our selves. The way we have betrayed ourselves. The relationship, or job, or wound, or whatever that we've been keeping alive well past its time. Like the falling beautifully-colored leaves of this time, let it fall away. Let it drop and bare yourself to the world. Break open your seed pod heart and let your imperfections out. You don't have to keep it together. Not all the time. Stop running and hiding from that thing, Just stop. Turn and face it. Look it right in the eye. See the truth of it. See all of it. Then you'll be able to rest. But not until then.

Me? I'm dropping my stories about needing permission, about trying to make sure everyone agrees with me. I'm letting go my need share responsibility (aka my desire to not be solely responsible when things go wrong). I'm letting go of my insecurities and my fears around being in charge. I'm looking my scared little girl in the eye and really seeing her. Understanding where she came from, I love her for keeping me safe from making mistakes and being disappointed. I'm taking her by the hand, and walking chin up into the unknown. It's what we were meant for. Time to really believe in myself, the magick, and that I'll be guided every step of the way.

What thing is waiting for your gaze? Where are you avoiding eye contact? We'd love to know how you are doing. As always we have resources and help if you need it.

With love and courage,
Ginger
