“And once we touch reality deeply in the present moment, we touch the past, we touch the future, and we touch eternity. We are the environment, we are the Earth, and the Earth has the capacity to restore balance.” — Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet by Thich Nhat Hanh https://a.co/79yL4T7
I started reading Hanh’s book before I realized he had transitioned. Zen Master Tich Nhat Hanh passed away at the Tu Hieu Temple in Hue on January 22, 2022. He was 95. A week long funeral was held in the form of a silent meditation course. A guiding light for mindfulness and passionate, aligned action, he will be deeply missed.
LETTING GO
This morning I turned my computer on with an email sharing the sad news that one of my dear mentors passed. Mona Delfino: Sacred Reconnections. As the Shift Network so directly shared; Mona was “a blazing light of possibility, healing, and positive vision for our collective future. She uplifted and inspired so many, not only at Shift but in the myriad ways her life and teaching touched others”. It was a tough way to start the day. A stark reminder that if indeed we are headed for a sixth mass extinction, there will be life that continues to create long after. Maybe who and whatever survives will tell the story through their bark, their needles or the very stones they sprang from.
MERCURY + VENUS RETROGRADE
We are all being asked to let go. The old is transforming and space for new possibilities is opening. Revising, revisioning, restoring and reviewing. The last few weeks have been challenging for me personally on many fronts. Computers, communications and transportation. All about repairing, replacing and restrictions with the blizzard that blew through last weekend! And somehow, all my notes with ideas for my February News, GONE! I am looking forward to Mercury going direct on the 4th and feeling that the message in all of it is to slow down and stay focused!
With Venus retrograding the last month and a half, she has presented us with an opportunity to take a good, long look at our lives and discover what we truly want out of our relationships and financial realms. I know it has been a theme for me with revisioning how I want to express my values of truth, love and beauty moving forward.
