The energies that surround you now bring with them winds of change.  Oh, we speak of change frequently, as you never remain static even when it feels so to you, but we would say that there are in some cases veritable gales of transformation surrounding many of you.  Would you not say this is so?  This is a time, then, of complete re-evaluation.  You are noticing and taking stock of your patterns of response and behavior, allowing them to eventually dissipate.  For now, though, you may be feeling immersed in these old patterns, wondering why they continue to plague you.  With time, however, and by the end of the month you will notice some changes:  you may still be noticing these patterns as they arise but you notice also that your response to them is changing, your perspective about them is changing.

This, then, is the nature of growth.  You repeatedly present yourselves with similar situations until you learn different responses to them.  You may find yourself trying a variety of responses, all to seemingly the same situations and patterns, and from each of these you take information that allows you to incorporate it into your new response-set.

Life, then, is a series of changes to your perception.  As an infant you have one perception of yourself and the world around you.  As a child, another.  As an adult, still another; in fact, your perception is constantly changing, though this is seldom something that is noticeable until the change has come to such a degree that you then are able to look back and see a difference.  And as you wend your way through your path of life, you notice changes to what’s around you as well as how you look at those things.  Perhaps everything around you is truly much the same but your perception of them has changed.  Do you look at an apple, for instance, the same way you did when you were a small child?  What about dreams, or sleep in general?  A child slips into sleep seamlessly, but an adult is often consumed by tasks and issues of the day which makes letting them go and moving into sleeptime difficult.  Having this trouble on a habitual basis over a period of time will then alter your perception about sleep; instead of a restful, welcome thing, it’s now associated with struggle.  You then make choices on certain levels as to how to proceed:  do you continue the struggle or do you find ways to again alter your perception about this state of being?

And all life experiences are like this:  all of them have neither positive or negative qualities until your perception of them imbues them with such qualities.  You continually make choices throughout your life which help you continue, nurture, or alter your perceptions of yourself and the things and people around you.  You do have choice in the matter, however; by opening yourself up to the limitless possibilities of each thing, you are able to choose new ways of perceiving them.  Give yourself time, space, and gentleness with this process, however, and allow for the fact that consciously changing your perceptions will likely bring along with it the pain of letting go of your old ones.

This, then, is the story of this month for you.  You, again, are involved deeply in learning to recognize your particular set of perceptions.  You will again and again be presented with opportunities to do so.  It is as always your choice how exactly to proceed, but we would say that a good many of you are now very actively involved in letting go of old ways of thinking and old ways of perceiving.  This is the energy that is moving through your communities at present and it is energy that you can tap into and avail yourself of to better enhance your own journeys.
