Shifting tides

 

Our universe is full of breath-taking wonders. There is so much of it we miss from our filtered vintage points of perception, as we zip through it at the speed of light.

The Helix Nebula is said to be located 700 light-years away from us, in the Aquarius constellation. Apparently, it's 'just' a dead star cloaked in dust.

Side-note (a): There is a lot of dismissive power in the word 'just'. If ignorance was a parade, 'just' would have to be its opening act, or float.

Side-note (b): If our recent human collective journey through time was a soap-opera, this year would have to be the one filled with shocking revelations.

Unless, my phone's news feeds thingy is lying to me, it appears that within a few months span, current-paradigm-challenging discoveries have been popping from archeological sites, and the outer cosmos itself, like corn kernels before a good movie.

Might 2020 be a year of great revelations? A year of shedding false beliefs? If it is, I say hang in there, and try to enjoy the ride, 'cause who knows how much shedding one has to do before the 'light' reaches its destination -that 'I' thing that makes you 'you' and me, 'me'.

I say hang in there, because the process can be painful when experienced from a state of fearful resistance. Now, who amongst us doesn't operate from such a state, even if only when no one is looking.

As the calcified veils of our deepest fears are touched by the light of 'Truth', we can either invite the 'grace' of our 'source/Spirit' to guide us into surrender, or refuse to let go of the old structures of beliefs, and be crushed to a pulp by the currents of creation. .

Of course, I might 'just' be tripping on my own fertile imagination.

So, just in case... May we all be one with the rhythms of our source's cosmically creative dance.

And that's all, folks!
