Is there a lot going on or what? It's a crazy time for sure. And from looking at the socials, there seems to be oodles of feelings on the state of things. Not to say it’s not justified. Which brings me to this month's Moon Bling. If you are unfamiliar with Moon Bling, read this: What is Moon Bling? (ravenskeepforge.com)
Horizon. I am using this as a definition, according to Webster: the line where the earth seems to meet the sky : the apparent junction of earth and sky and/or range of perception or experience.
As I sat with what I needed to do this month, I was really all over the place. It was way too much. I was having a difficulty settling in on an idea to translate. Maybe it is because right now our world is ‘too much’.
I’ve been taught that you need to start with the ending in mind. You ‘see’ where you are going, and then work backwards, breaking the steps down into small manageable daily tasks. Then all I have to do is do the 'thing' today. Doing that everyday will get me to where I want to go. I am not going to presume I know what your ending is. I know for me, I have to silence all the noise and focus. Not to be disturbed by all the shiny stuff. Pick your spot on the ‘horizon’ and work on first things first. I know for me when I get all worked up, nothing really good comes from it. It becomes overwhelming. So I just end up frustrated. And get stuck, not doing anything but getting all worked up. Rinse and repeat.
To think of it another way. This talisman is a nifty little reminder to be grounded, centered and vigilant on your tasks at hand. A tangible reminder on the objective. I see no problem with a little righteous anger (well deserved), and let it fuel you forward. Use it to help you do your Work! Not to get sidetracked on things you have no control over, wasting your precious energy. Keep your focus on your Horizon. Doing the Work that YOU can and need to do.
This will be forged on the Full Moon (21/22). Co-creating it at this time specifically for its power of illumination, to see our way clearly. The circle as a guide to look through, clearly focus and the line the Horizon. The waxing moon is a call to action.
Playtime is over. The world needs you to do your Work, that only You can do. It’s time.
