Resurrect your infinite mind

We had a very interesting meditation on Monday. It is Mercury retrograde. We think about Mercury as frenetic energy, however meditation was clear, direct and peaceful.
We started clearing the right side of the body, releasing where the masculine energy we are living in isn't serving us.
Then we started pulling energy into the womb space, or the creative center, and that energy came right through the body, to the spine and then up to the brain and mind.
Perception is what we are opening up this week. What we see is based on our perception, our location and our history. If 5 people see the same accident, you likely have a five different people say exactly what happened and those accounts are slightly different than each other and sometimes wildly different depending on the people.
One way that I am consciously opening my perception in my personal life is to remove the words "but" and "should" from my vocabulary. There is nothing more annoying to me than for someone to give me some great news and then disqualify it with a but statement. As far as "shoulds" go, those are mostly programs running in the mind, what people have told us is required. I want to live in a world where people do things from joy, respect, and becuase they want to, not becuase they should. I want to live in a world where people don't give themselves up for the shoulds.
We tapped the energy of imagination in our belly. Creativity was also large in the room. This is what Mercury Out of Bounds wants us to be open to. Creativity and imagination. For your life, for the world. More welcoming, enriching and more grounding.
The word reverence made an appearance again. How can we meet creativity and imagination with reverence? How can we meet LIFE with more reverence? How lucky are we to live in a place where our basic needs are covered and yet we still feel entitled to things that are luxury in other places?
With how much more reverence can we meet life? Can we meet our challenges with reverence? Because it is the challenge that promotes growth most of the time.
If we meet those with reverence, maybe we learn faster or easier? or maybe we get sucked into a hole less? I don't have the answer to this. Let us hold this, meditate on this. This feels important.
We did some brainspotting on opening our perspective. Can we be open to experience more abundance? Seeing what we already have as abundant, and allowing more abundance to flow to us.
We worked in the nervous system to allow our system to receive more abundance. We want good things to feel natural, and if we haven't experienced that in a long time, sometimes we push the goodness away or subconsciously avoid it. This is important work. Find something today to really enjoy, whether it is your coffee, a shower, a 10 minute walk in a park or something else wonderful. If you can't get to class, this is part of your homework, and if you did get to class, it still is! A new nervous system isn't built in a day.
It is safe to experience love, connection, support. It is safe to see the world as full of opportunity.
We eneded meditation with an invitation to resurrect your infinite mind. Maybe you had access to that when you were a small child, maybe it was before you came into this body. We don't need to know what it means in order to open to it. Tap into the cosmos. Tap into the freedom of creative, imaginative thought.
I look forward to what this brings over the next week and beyond.
Ask at the end of the day, what happened today? How can I see it with new eyes?
I feel like this is a great practice for every day, but this week specifically when the sun, the moon and Mercury are all in Scorpio (the underworld), where transformation occurs. Remember all these celestial happenings are happening for us. If we are available to it we will grow, learn and evolve into the best versions of ourselves.
Pluto was on and off my sun for years, which made me feel like death, but today as I sit in the aftermath of all that, I feel lucky, I feel free, and I feel full of possibility, potential and super grateful to be right here, right now.
Wednesday Evening Gathering
We are having cacao this week. I have a new variety and a new recipe that is just divine. I can't wait to share it.
This week feels special as the concept of the infinite mind is open. We will certainly prepare the nervous system again for more goodness. And as always, we will see what else opens up.

If I don't see you before then, have a happy Thanksgiving. May we be grateful for all things.
So much love
