Today: Attraction, influence and contagious enthusiasm

Listen to the primal rhythm of the tides deep in the unconscious.  Recognizing the attraction between affinities is a general law of nature. Heaven and earth attract each other and thus all creatures come into being.  From the attractions they exert we can learn the nature of all beings in heaven and on earth. Meditate and know these things without doubt as they appear first in sensations in the back of the neck.

Today: Peace and blessings

Heaven and Earth embrace, giving birth to Peace. Peace brings the promise of prosperity, although it is very fragile.  When things turn, do not chase the balance that once was. Just bless, bless, bless.  When you bless, you are blessed.

The gentle Wind roams the Earth:  Expand your sphere of influence as you expand your awareness.  Direct your your devotion and intentions to the pursuit of clarity and wisdom.  Be aware of the inspiring, positive example you are setting for others to emulate.  Be the watchtower, the lighthouse for all to see.

Today: Use your creative powers…beware of people who approach with self-serving agendas

You may engage anything that supports your aspirations and creativity.  You have many good choices.

Do not engage people who are selling false and self-serving promises. They remain harmless as long as you do not come to meet them and give them power. The danger is in their false appearances.  The inferior thing seems so harmless and inviting that there is a tendency to delight in it; it looks so small and weak that it is easy to imagine that you may dally with it and come to no harm.  Recognizing deceptive behavior at the outset is the key to not falling under its influence and to avoiding real danger.

Today: Rise above the chaos and insanity

When human folly has grown beyond all proportion, don’t jump in, don’t feed it, don’t ignore it, don’t react.  All we can do is breathe in, contain the experience of it, let it be dispersed in our silence, and breathe out, expanding the transmutation into and beyond our environment. Our endurance, resilience and flexibility will have a strong impact on our immediate relations who can then carry them forward.  The insanity will pass.

Today: In your stillness, observe

Stay in stillness. Conditions are favorable for hostile forces to challenge you.  Avoid the petty and superficial by keeping shallow people at a distance, not in anger but with dignity.  Retreat to security, so that the surrounding darkness cannot encroach upon your peaceful existence.  Stay in silence. Watch. Listen.
