DAILY In several classes this past week, I referred to the following words by Marianne Williamson. Many of you requested the full quote from the real deal, which Marianne is. So here you go! Continue growing your Wizard muscles, hold her idea in high regard this year, because it is a time of liberating ourselves, and manifesting…. two difficult and demanding requirements, but oh so necessary.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Part of the demand that we manifest is a Cardinal T square that is action-oriented, connecting us to the world. If we are to play well together, some of our ideas and philosophies might have to change, (Jupiter/Pluto thrust.) But the commitment and effort, required by Mars, could pay off in very nice dividends, if we are willing to listen as often as we command.
Venus went retrograde at the Winter Solstice and remains backward in Capricorn through January. This is a Venus that may feel inadequate, out of place, or shy, which makes it a potent time, not necessarily an easy time, to review what we need to create to make us feel shiny and bright. Why do we not feel “brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous?” Venus conjuncts Mercury this week, allowing the brain to infuse the heart, and vice versa. Let us listen carefully.
To have our light shine it is important to not shrink or hold back, even when we feel like it. Rather step into better-stronger relationships, re-create what was difficult –make it sacred. The people and places we struggle with are the bruised parts of self needing to heal. Make this an opportune time to call that to you. You do a huge service not only for self but for the world. Think what a community we might create through a sea of loving, listening relationships.
