How are you all? &nbsp;I wanted to check in and find out what\u2019s happening in everyone\u2019s lives right now. &nbsp;In my last blog (for the Pisces Blue Moon) I spoke about great truths being revealed and emotional matters being illuminated or, if you have been feeling disconnected, a feeling of being reconnected again. It can feel like the return of your mojo or VaVavVoom and it\u2019s a wonderful feeling when we connect again. There\u2019s a collective sigh of relief, a sense of release, once the great dark tumultuous waves have finished tossing and crashing us around, the energy dissipates, and all becomes calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me personally, there is a feeling of \u2018course reset\u2019. As I reflect over the past 18 months there\u2019s a feeling of having been picked up, shaken up like one of these snow globes, before being, quite literally and metaphorically, set down in a new place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I write, I\u2019m looking for cupboard space for elements of my old life, things that were important enough to bring with me in endless boxes, and yet I\u2019m struggling to find a place for them here. There is a feeling that I am not meant to simply re-create the old life in a new location. There is a feeling that I\u2019ve been set down in this new place, changed by all that came before, and I need to connect with all that was brought to the surface and illuminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my life, this translates to getting serious about my passions, my work, and how I can honour what I came here to do. For instance, I\u2019ve realised with my writing I have been so busy writing for others (and I mean predominantly faceless, corporate entities) that I &#8216;neglected&#8217; to carve out time for <em>\u2018my\u2019<\/em> writing. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I love what I do \u2013 it really is a passion and I\u2019m so lucky to have made a career out of writing &#8211; but seeing my own voice being accredited to others or, suppressed and lost in amongst it all can be painful. I worked so hard to find that voice, so I don&#8217;t want to pretend that my dreams and ambitions for myself don&#8217;t matter to me anymore.  I\u2019ve made that decision to stop neglecting myself and dedicate at least one day a week to my own writing projects and to getting my own voice out there again. I used to love writing features for magazines, and I loved writing poetry for the sake of it. I used to love automatic writing in the wee small hours, sharing channelled messages, or just sitting in quiet contemplation with my journal. There seems to be a vibrant community of writers here in Tasmania, so I might feel into that and see where it leads. I have a real desire to connect back to all of that, to reclaim my own authentic voice. I don&#8217;t have anything to prove to myself anymore.  It&#8217;s time to re-connect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can also see so many collaboration projects with my sister. Her illustrations inspire me, and I always dreamed, with a family of artists, designers, and a writer, that we could all work together someday, so I plan to commit more time in that direction too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are coming up to a New Moon in Virgo, so it\u2019s the perfect time to get organised. There\u2019s real work to be done here, redecorating the house, planting new seeds outdoors, re-establishing myself and Gaia\u2019s Light in a new community, and creating the vision I have had for Write from Source. There was so much upheaval, but now &#8211; I feel excited. We are all entering a powerful time of transformation and I feel our spirits are feeling rejuvenated somewhat. Are you feeling this too?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s something about the light here \u2013 and the air. It\u2019s cleansing, invigorating, and inspiring and I feel renewed somehow. <em>That&#8217;s all well and good<\/em>,  I muse to myself, but I&#8217;m going to have to go out and buy some new cupboards \u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, hello beautiful souls.
