Happy
Solar New Year! We finally emerge after a long winter. This
trip to the underworld seems to have been difficult for many
people. A time of great introspection and clearing out the
dead wood so that we can emerge and
blossom.
On this occasion, during this
time of emerging I have birthed a blog called Contemplating the
Universe. The seed was planted during the winter months
when people called me, emailed me and we gathered to support
each other. I wrote many emails, personal and global. It
seemed to bring comfort to many people. But beyond that, for
me, it became fascinating to see how people’s experiences
seemed to be aligned. I feel that we resonate with the
Universe and each other much more than we realize.
Out of that
experience came the inspiration to create a blog, a forum to
discuss these trends and to share personal experiences as well
as information with each other. I hope you will join us in Contemplating the
Universe .

WELCOME
As we
journey through life, Dancing with the Universe we each
experience our own unfolding, but often that unfolding can aid
and illuminate others as well as ourselves. The Mayans have
explained this unfolding, the evolution of consciousness, very
clearly in their calendar.
The
ultimate point is a point of complete surrender but surrender
in consciousness, being completely awake, not surrender in
unconsciousness, asleep, giving up or apathy. This state of
“no-mind” is a very active, present state, where we are
completely connected to the Divine yet fully present at the
same time.
The
goal of being illuminated, to become the Universal Dancer, is
a journey through experience. The end point is fusion but
fusion occurs between polarities. We are moving to the fusion
point, where the extremes come together, not in neutrality but
with great power. For that reason I feel a blog is a perfect
place to assist each other in this journey, it is timely and
global. For me personally, I have boundless energy for
contemplation. I sit in awe of the miraculous unfolding taking
place in front of me. But I do not sit as a spectator; I wish
to be a participant, not to change or control but to assist in
the process.
I feel
I stand in a very unique position. Many people come to me for
guidance and information and for that reason it gives me
perspective on what is going on around us, a perspective that
extends beyond my own personal experience. I am honored that
people confide in me and I would never betray that confidence.
What I would like to communicate on the blog are the trends
that come up through these conversations, as well as answers
to the questions that people
raise.
The
way I feel I can best participate in this Dance is with my
clarity of vision, my ability to articulate what I see and as
a weaver of webs. I hope each one of you will use your own
gifts in this unfolding and share with us how you best fit
into this puzzle.
Hoping
that we will Dance with the Universe
together.
