Lighter, Brighter

The first thing I got when I touched into this month’s energy was giggles and laughter. And the message seems very clear to me. There’s a lot of heaviness in the world but this month our energy is best focused on lightening up our lives. Giggles and laughter.

If we look back on the year on a global level, there’s been so much going on. Wars, a difficult economy for many people, Covid still circulating, frightening politics. As they say, if you’re not worried, you’re not paying attention.

But all of this heaviness can take a toll on our hearts.

I was struggling the other day trying to sort out some things in my life. I drew a card from the Tarot of Mystical Moments deck and the message I got was focus on the moments. One moment leads to the next. And in the image, a woman was communing with a fish in a cup. To me, it meant be present in the moment with the connections we have. That moment will guide us to the next, like stepping stones along a path.

This month it’s essential that we shine a light on what’s working. What are you grateful for? Who do you love? Who loves you? What do you love? What are you passionate about? What gifts have you received this year?

It’s easy to get weighed down by our troubles. We’re living in unprecedented times with unfamiliar challenges. What’s called for are creative solutions. And true, authentic, life-aligned solutions come from listening to our hearts.

So, can you see the connection? Lightening our hearts allows us to glimpse possibilities.

This month, focus on joy and happiness. Be present in the moments of your day. Bring joy, share joy, receive joy. Let your heart be filled with wonder for the magic in the world. The magic in your world. And maybe even giggle a little.

May your heart be light, and your path clear.
