Yep…we’ve got some very interesting times out there folks! War and violence in too many places to count, militarization of police in the rise in the good ‘ole USA, religious scandals abound for the Vatican, etc.. etc., etc.! Sooo many things are out there to strike fear in the are hearts of mankind.n
But wait, if you are reading this…you know the opposite of fear is…LOVE and so you are primed to “do your own thinking” without just blindly following the whims of the masses. Let’s stop for just a moment and consider nature…no one can deny that nature, itself, is a perfectly balanced machine keeping everything in a delicate check and balance system…naturally!
In nature, the meek do not disappear. Though they may occasionally become dinner for a larger predator, their species maintains and goes on, so let’s consider the habits of a rabbit. These creatures are mild-mannered and timid, so how do they “cope”? A spiritual Reiki Master, Tina Marie has the same questions and explores how and why rabbits exist despite their timidity. Perhaps, we humans can learn a little more form nature!
So, please read Tina Marie’s article here, think about it, and…
Enjoy!
Rabbits would, by most, be thought of as extremely vulnerable “victims” out in the wild, at the mercy of many dangers and predators. Yet, rabbits hold an important message of groundedness and humility, teaching us to listen to our instincts, to be quick-thinking, and move through our fears. They show us that we do not have to be, or remain, “victims” of life and circumstance. We can maneuver through the changing currents of life by becoming more in tune with our intuition, trusting more in what we can feel and not quite yet see, supporting those feelings, and doing it all more easily and rapidly with practice so that it becomes second-nature to feel and react in harmony with those feelings. It can make all the difference in stressful times, especially when timing is of the essence.
Intuition is key and is something we all have access to. We are just more prone to use our minds and intellect first, rather than in combo with our “sixth sense” gut instincts. Intuition just hasn’t been exercised as much because we often believe that if we can’t think through something and find a logical, reasoned conclusion, then we haven’t analyzed enough and therefore don’t have enough information to make a choice. Yet, sometimes there is no thinking and understanding involved and while information and mentalizing is nice, sometimes answers come to us as fully formed “knowings,” which we have all experienced at some time or another.
The following quotes from Einstein, speak volumes, coming from such a man and mind of science who is known as a great “thinker” of his era:
“The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it intuition or what you will, and the solution comes to you, and you don’t know how or why.”
AND
“There comes a time when the mind takes a higher plan of knowledge but can never probe how it got there.”
AND LASTLY
“The only real valuable thing is intuition.”
These are pretty potent thoughts on “non-thought” from a big time thinker.
Sometimes all the stimuli in our environment, coupled with mass projected consciousness in reaction to that, can really play havoc on our abilities to cope with life. Shifting energies, major transitions and changes, and what seem like dramatic upheavals to our human bodies, (which are already taking on way more stress than they were made for), can really be trying and feel as if one has been thrown out in a field of wolves and left to fend for themselves with nothing to use as protection except for what we have within. And so we can let our minds run wild and attach to mass fears by others who have allowed fear to take over their abilities to choose a more peaceful and supportive way, and get devoured by the plague of wolves closing in on us. Or, we can choose to take a moment and listen within to what our intuition and hearts are trying to tell us, but the noise of our over-processed and fear-burdened minds are drowning out, and discover a precision perfect path to the calm and peace of our magical safe “Shires.”
We have all been conditioned from childhood to use our thinking skills and respect logic, yet to that we need to add our ability to receive input from our intuition and heart, then we get to a place of not just understanding, but of “knowing.”
There is a way to experience things differently than what you see others experiencing around you. There is also a way to “outwit” your own fears and those of others by going within and finding YOUR OWN truth and living by and supporting it despite anything you see or hear around you. What you believe is what you create and not everyone experiences panic, fear, unpleasantries, stress, worry, and poverty consciousness, even though there seems to be a lot of it around. Ask those who are not experiencing the fear, nor the results of it, and you’ll find some interesting and helpful answers.
These are different times and they call for different ways of “being.” These limiting experiences, processes and beliefs are of the past. They do not belong to the now and the New Earth we are creating.
You can be your own masterful rabbit who knows just how to maneuver safely in the light of day or dark and stillness of night. The point being, if we allow panic to take over then we will surely find ourselves cornered and devoured by the very thing we were fearfully running away from. The panic causes one to either exert enormous effort to stand still, not able to move at all and unable to make the necessary shifts to rise above the fear, or to mentally let our thoughts run wild with every imaginable possibility. We think of all the things that “could” happen instead of being in the moment and quieting long enough to intuit “our” truths to trust and follow, which would hence create what “will” happen. We do this so much so that we end up running in place and expending energy in every unfounded direction just “in case” it will happen and it either never does, OR actually does happen because we focus so much energy and thought into it that we end up creating it. We then live a daily experience of running and tiring from our own thoughts, allowing the wolves to easily devour and control every step of our lives, which in turn become joyless, stressful, and unhealthy in every way.
We are in some very different times and breaking from the old can be challenging at first, yet we all have the ability to change the way we experience and process things. And the more people shift their perspectives and ways of operating, the more things will shift collectively, as it is always a domino effect in terms of one light creating illumination for all. Never think for one instance that you don’t make a difference. If we all thought that way, then there would be no new creations and inventions. As more of us turn within and live from our essence and trust what we find within that experience of our truest heart’s joy, the easier it gets for others to do the same. It is a choice of responsibility, love and joy to ourselves and ultimately for everyone.
What do you want your life to look and feel like? After you answer that question, then create the intent to have it as so, and choose accordingly. Be mindful of every thought you have and every feeling that comes up, especially when amidst mass projections. It will soon be clear how it is you have been co-creating your experience and how you can now take back your power to co-create differently.
You are not alone. Many are on the same path to own their power and together we can create much beauty for all, as we all have a part to play in the bigger picture. One is powerful, but the power of many is great! You have seen this already in the opposite of ways; in how many people that ARE in fear CREATE mass fear. So why not tip the scales? Something to ponder…..
