MOVING FORWARD

As we begin this new year I find my deepest question is about moving forward.

How do we truly move forward into the new without repeating the same old tired patterns? How do we move forward with trust, joy and creativity? How do we find a balance between working towards a specific goal and just being open to the highest good the universe has in store for us?

In order to move forward we must first be grounded.

We must have our feet, legs and hips, literally and figuratively, firmly underneath us, providing support and stability. This is the domain of the First Chakra, and has much to do with our relationship to the earth, family, tribe and basic survival. I am finding that many of us are experiencing a lot of deep fear and past trauma coming up right now in this area.

Why now, you might be wondering?

Old fears and traumas are being activated now both due to current astrological influences, particularly the influences of Saturn and Pluto, and because the planet herself is undergoing many deep energy shifts at this time.

This is a great opportunity for us to clear these old issues, to move through and heal our deepest fears and traumas.

This will allow us to establish our energetic roots more firmly in the present, in the deeper ground of our own true being. Strengthening our energetic foundation, rather than keeping us stuck in one place, actually allows us to move forward on our path with confidence, trust and greater energy and endurance.
