~ Dragon Taming ~ 2012

The creative world meets us in a variety of ways ~ occasional synchronicities pop up in our worlds matching the focus of the moment. It seems apropos that the solar flares are creating light magic on our sweet planet, some even in the shapes of angels ~ A rediscovery of an old favorite book emerged this week, timely (of course) ~ check out the graphic at the link below ~

Touched for the Very First Time ~ 2012

The theme of Virgin Territory of 2012 continues to flow as our New Year  unfolds  in unprecedented energetics;  Stars align with Planetary energies  Dancing our Spirits ~ Awakening our Souls ~ Dreaming us into new Times ~ from a whirling dervish high spin into a down-shift of  a sloth crawl ~ then back up again to a high spin as our skirts whirl to inner drum beats~

Creativity pulses under the surface of our collective & individual consciousness as we clear out, re-alaign, balance , or just collapse under the exciting/dreadful pressure of it all.

We will continue to live in the Mystery as we learn to cultivate the Path of our Hearts, all the while  being wobbled by whorling currents ~

~ whorling – a form that coils or spirals; a curl or swirl: spread the icing in peaks and whorls ~

As our true wintertime is here in our northern hemisphere, we gather our yarn, prepare our spindles to allow for high whorling spinning of our dreams and desires ~ each of us recalling the intuitive knowing of how to follow our own inner timing.

The Crystal Ball 1902 J. Waterhouse

The Sun will follow the path of the 60th Gate this week, moving through each line over the next 6  days ~ While the Earth steadily partners with the Sun in the 56th Gate , this may be an opportunity to feel the influence of this transforming energy in our Root Chakra, by  grounding ourselves deep into the Earth while the Heavens have their way with us.

Out of the blue we may be surprised by unseen possibilities as Rising Earth~Wisdom tickles your Root into awareness. There may be a temptation to bolt out of the starting gates (or startling gates ) , feeling a pressure to get it done, do it now, and thus forgetting to follow our own heartfelt timing or respect our genuine response.

Wisdom of the 60th Gate ~ Acceptance/Limitation ~ ” The Acceptance of limitation is the first step in trancendence.”

Wisdom of the 56th Gate ~Stimulation/The Wanderer ~ ” Stability through movement, the perpetuation of continuity through the linking of short term activity ” Rave I Ching

Monday: Jan 16th

60.1 offers a firm foundation in the wisdom of Acceptance, yet a shaky insecurity might prevail while on the journey to an accepting state of mind, one might consider the higher frequency of Divine Surrender ~

56.1 offers a solid connection to Quality , yet, there may be a crack in the foundation if Quality is overlooked

Tuesday: Jan 17th

60.2 offers Decisiveness, in a natural flow of accepting events, yet, there could be a blow up of repressed energies perhaps a blow up leads to a decisive action/response.

56.2 offers Linkage, partnership to linking connections yet perhaps there is a broken link that may need mending by an accepting heart ~

Wednesday: Jan 18th

60.3 offers the gift of Conservatism , perhaps all that indecisiveness might be met with some laughter or tears as we find the middle ground

56.3 offers up Alienation, suggesting that as we wander we may be stimulated to meet up with many along the way, chit chatting here and there ~ accidentally making and breaking bonds with an unawareness that created alienation from ourselves.

Thursday: Jan 19th

60.4 offers Resourcefulness , a communal approach to accepting the limitation ? Maybe, perhaps gather your friends soften your stance, offer a smile as true Resourcefulness is a Gift of the Heart.

56.4 offer Expediency, egads, first we are tempered by Limitation, then Acceptance of the 60 in opposition to this earthly stimulation, now the chance to contemplate the state of Expedience comes crashing in on the party ~ well, shake the hands of your community and enjoy the journey !

Friday: Jan 20th

60.5 offers Leadership, what magnetic appeal is happening here ? Is there a new story brewing on the mental plane ?

56.5 offers Attracting Attention ~ what ticket to paradise is being suggested here ?

Saturday: Jan 21st

60.6 offers Rigidity , a question here might be, what are the gifts of the Rigid ? How would a rigid being be helpful to empowering lessons in acceptance ?

56.6 offers Caution, hmmmm, considering how the week has progressed so far j~~~ what thought do you bring to the table ?

Until we meet again ~ Dance your Spirit, like the very first time ~

Lovingly,

Kendall

                               ” A longdrawn carol, mournful, holy,                                     

She chanted loudly, chanted lowly,

Till her eyes were darken’d wholly,

And her smooth face sharpen’d slowly,

Turn’s to tower’d Camelot,

For ere she reach’d upon the tide,

The first house by the water-side,

Singing in her song she died,

The Lady of Shalott. “

excerpt – Tennyson 1832

The Lady of Shallot 1888 J Waterhouse

2011 Virgin Territory

2012, We have been awaiting you ~ Welcome to our hearth – this is an early greeting to you, this last day of 2011~ Our fires are lit, our tears have been shed, our suffering met, our joys released ~ 2012, welcome, we don’t quite know what you have in store for us, more magic ? more mayhem? There are so many questions about you !

Will the gossamer threads of Ariadne’s weaving, be strong enough to lead us through the labyrinth of our collective making ~ Will we be able to guide ourselves and loved ones through the New Year as our intentions unfold, with all their shadow and light ? 

Will we easily ride the waves of our timing, as our Karma rises up from the seabed to meet us in exhilarating waves of actualization ?

In the Human Design world,  the New Year begins on January 22nd,  just in case, we may want to reclaim our intentions once the thrill of moving into 2012 has calmed.

Virgin Territory, there is much more hidden in these two simple words, as the mood moves me, the Visionary Woman site will be exploring , the vastness of this Virgin Territory.

Gene Keys holds a vibration of wonderment ~ who am I in this Now ?  That is a Virgin Territory question ~ what frequency am I emanating, what am I aware of in this Now ? Have I freaked out from the pressure and moved into a lower vibe and if so will I remember to shift my awareness so that I may release my Radiance ?  Will I recall that I am often times challenged to ground new concepts ? Will I remember that when I ground them, I strengthen myself ~~~into my core Purpose ? 

Will I remember my Calling and the Gifts the reside in my Life’s Work ?  Can I take the challenge to heart and recall my Evolutionary journey ?

The Path of a Virgin, is long and arduous. Filled with pregnant possibilities, the pressures of birthing thought, ideas, creativity, opinions  at just the right moment ~ these pressures find us ~ pushing us to  surrender to the Light of Love and to the knowing that there is no escape, our hearts are here for us to surrender into the not knowing while we  also we hold the candle flame of deep intuitive awareness where we know ~

and~~~

we know that we know while we also know that we know nothing

That is the mystery of this creative caldron.

Human Design within its synthesis of the comic sciences, has something called Circuitry…this virgin territory brings a circuit to mind. It is called the Defense Circuit, the Sacral in the Center of the , say, the midpoint, the Navel, the Chi of the body, the Vision Point, the Gut of Intuition & the Energy of the Bodygraph symbolizes the protective Life Force –

The response strategy that is available within the Human Design perspective, offers us a way to navigate through time and space, protecting the Life Force.   If you are a beginner to Human Design, there are Four major types, each with their “Strategy and Authority”, then it become a bit more subtle as there are nuances within the system depending on your chart.

The Gene Keys meets Human Design on the bridge of synthesis, the planks in the bridge are fashioned from the Ancient I-Ching, the rope that holds the bridge is something like the orbit of the planets, imagine that the orbits all in concert weave an invisible thread, which binds and imaginary rope, that we can touch with our hearts as we stand on the bridge of synthesis.

Virgin Territory may mean that this Visionary Woman may get a bit heady with all this Jazz ~~~ I cannot help myself.

Slowly, I am beginning to understand the idea of no choice. To ultimately surrender to the Beloved, reveals, that well, perhaps there is just no choice, but to enjoy the unfolding mystery with a boggled mind, a bleeding heart & a reservoir of forgiveness.

Until we meet again ~ Blessings

Visionary Woman

Clinging Fire 8/2011


 Soul-poetry
prompt: Create a soul poem, using the following words:

Clinging Fire, Longing, Radiance, Light, Desire, Rapture, Water, Fire, Release, Surrender, Harmony, Burning, Yearning, Balance

“The original meaning of Li is “radiance in all directions,’ “beauty” or “illumination”…The original Chinese character for beauty portrayed the eyes of a deer and represented the sun and the moon. Light from the sun and moon brightens the earth.

Because of this light, we are able to enjoy beauty. But beauty must cling to something: It cannot exist independently of an object. A tree is beautiful because of its form, the shape and color of its leaves and its fruit and flowers. 

On a practical level, this hexagram instructs humanity in the uses of brightness or mental illumination for the guidance of others.  When one cultivates brightness, once light will illuminate all directions. Those who receive brightness will also reflect it.  To perpetuate brightness is to radiate warmth in all of one’s actions”  from I Ching  Hua-Ching Ni

Flowing with Beauty 2011

This solar eclipse of  June 1st marks a new cycle while many endings of completion are also taking place.

Venus is currently in the 23rd Gene Key   while Mars is in the 2nd Gene Key

23rd Gene Key                                             2nd Gene Key

Siddhi of Quintessence                                Siddhi of Unity
Gift of Simplicity                                       Gift of Orientation                                                       Shadow of Complexity                            Shadow of Dislocation

Today the 23rd Gene Key is flavored by the 2nd Line  while     Mars in the 2nd Gene Keys flavored by the 3rd Line

Questions to contemplate today:

Where are you unaware of your complexities that twist in the shadows….what natural illuminations of Simplicity are peaking through the prisms of your inner crystalline light ?  Are you aware of the strength and maturation of the Gift of Orientation that Mars is bringing you with joy and laughter or are you shadow dancing in a field of dislocation unaware of the true qualities Beauty offers in Quintessence and Unity ?
