Although
much was said about December 21, 2012, I believe all of us are still alive and
most of us well. The imminent end to the world the Mayans predicted through
their calendar 5,000 years ago, seemed to survive or be postponed, at least for
the last 3 weeks.
Other
sources of the great change of 2012, explain that the year 2012 was a shift and
rebalancing of energy. The masculine and feminine energies are said to have
realigned and balanced out, ending roughly 5,000 years of male dominated
energy. A calmer, more loving, nurturing, receptive and respecting force is
said to have been ushered in gradually over the last year, culminating at the
end of the year in a decisive change, for the better perhaps.
Undoubtedly,
anywhere there is balance and harmony, the greatest sources of energy,
wellbeing and good can originate. It is understandable that any change brings
about confusion and anxiety, but having settled into the first few weeks of
this year, this year feels like the peace and calm we have been searching for a
long time. The long awaited Zen. Balancing of ying and yang energies. Despite
the current peaceful feeling, I wonder myself too, how long will it last, how
it will evolve and what new heightened experiences it will bring to us?
So
far, I have come to realise the importance of being calm and not worrying about
the future. The importance of staying present, focused, full of love, compassion,
harmony and trust. Just trust in the future. It is very easy to daydream for
the future and reminisce on the past. To use both to try to make sense of the
present, a present which is perfect in itself. At any time, we are just where
we are meant to be. This is a lesson I have learnt repeatedly last year: every
time I wanted to be decisive and make a decision based on fear, the unknown,
anxiety or pain, I was guided to see it through, live in the present. The
answer, the true answer, would appear unknowingly, and only now when I look
back, I can see my evolution occurred only when I was willing to confront those
current ‘uncomfortable’ feelings. To feel them, think about them and deal with
them. And then LET THEM GO. Ultimately, what ensued over last year, was a
constant exercise in trust and accepting the present moment. What has
eventuated is a new outlook to match the new incoming energy of last year.
This
year, 2013, carries a refreshed and renewed vibe; one that needs to be absorbed
and channelled to create greater good, appreciation, love, compassion,
acceptance and harmony among all. If we all live in the present, aim to focus
our mind on positive and productive thoughts and then ACT, we can create a
world continually brimming with and carrying forward the product of our common
good.
