Watch Your Shadow Grow

Doris Lessing says, "...that is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've understood all your life, but in a new way."

I love the height of the cycle...this Full Moon phase... where, if I am honest, and capable of listening to what is being said within, I can hear truth...and it may not always be to my liking.

Year by year we are given the opportunity to be changed by our experiences, we know this yet we may still struggle against it. This is the time Full phase) each month when that struggle may be most apparent. Knowing this we can allow the space to look at those parts that we may not be very comfortable with owning. Try this: when no one is watching give yourself permission to identify this part, this less than perfect, murky part that wants to hold you down. Betcha it doesn't want to stay once you really look at it.

It's summer and during this active time we can create a new way of growing that consciously encompasses where we were a year ago with where we would like to be in the year ahead.

There are planetary happenings galore right now...tap into some of them by visiting my pals.

Reminder: read the Lifecycle Forecast for the all of 2009 and put it all in context.
