Energy Posting by Brenda Harley

Gazing out my window and wondering yet again about life and where we are headed, my eyes are drawn to the magnificent pine that sits on the edge of our property. It is well over a hundred years old and I am filled with such gratitude every time I look upon it. Its value lies in its enduring beauty, nothing more. If it were cut down and used to produce something, I’m sure that on some level it would be more valuable. Yet to me, it could not do anything more than BE to make me happy. Its beauty in my life adds value.

The sun, continuing to shine down in earthy Taurus, supports this deep connection to nature. Sometimes all we can do is take care of our immediate surroundings and make decisions that respect our values. It is not about anyone else. The moon is waxing into full on the 20th and right now is about half way there in the sign of Virgo, asking us to take care of the details and make any necessary corrections.

This is the time in the monthly cycle that can feel very stressful with the desire for action holding a sense of tension, as there are still many obstacles in the way. “Crisis in Action” seems a fitting label at this time, as the economy takes another major hit.

By allowing our souls (sun) to connect fully to the fertile ground of the earth (Taurus), we may find comfort. Squatting down to pull mustard weed from my perennial bed earlier in the week, I experienced an unexpected reprieve from my achy back. Sinking into the earth we are more able to feel her rhythms. Life is always growing and expanding and by choosing to allow the natural beauty that surrounds us to inspire and support us in times of chaos can prove to be stabilizing. It may well be the best tool available to help us maintain a sense of balance in this current state of turmoil.
