I feel a fire burning in me-a flame ignited-coincidentally or not (there are no accidents), with the guidance received on Friday that led me to complete 70 Salutations to the Sun-I feel a strength and confidence ignited within my heart, coinciding (still no accident!), with the breakdown of the car, so that miles traveled are now on foot, instead of from the comfort of the car. I feel this fire in the focus of my mind-coinciding, (no accident here),  with the alignment of the planets, the fullness of the Moon, and the Eclipse of the Earth and Moon, and the Equinox-all happening now. 

A hard look at present location-actions and words speaking and revealing volumes of the darkness and the wounds of the heart I carry-we all carry. It seems this is the time to bring it to light, to examine it and decide where to put it-where to tenderly lift it from the careful packaging of protection and lovingly acknowledge it to see if perhaps it can be healed in the light of day. To see if it can be released and let fly in the illumination of truth and understanding. Acknowledging it for the defense mechanism of  protection that it has been. All of my, all of our, dark secrets and hidden shame-self-imposed punishments and dark moments of misunderstanding-guilt-sometimes deserved, but not always. 

Now is the time, to see with fresh eyes-wiser eyes, compassionate eyes and forgive-forgive ourselves for our naivete-forgive others for their part in our souls evolution, and forgive our hearts for our vulnerability, and release the old patterns that have held us hostage.

The light of day and willingness to see that which is illuminated now, is our way forward-is my way forward. May my heart remain open as my eyes, to see what the light illuminates. I am filled with Compassion and Gratitude for all that has brought me to this place, and all that is before me. The fire burns, the Light shines.
