Letter from the editor

I look forward to the first day of Spring more than most kids look forward to Christmas. The energy that flows through the matrix on the Vernal Equinox is like an elixir to me; the older I get the more I can feel it. This year it started to hit me in early February. Since then, it has been building up in a crescendo that, at this point, makes it hard to hear myself think or focus on anything but how good it feels to be alive.

Flocks of Bluebirds are feeling it too. They are already making their nests, and getting fat on the orange berries that grow near my neighbor’s porch. As they fill the air with songs that awaken the child in me, on my way out to play, I keep hearing them sing, ‘We are living in a new time. This is a new day’.  Listening to this refrain, and reflecting on the changes that have brought us to this place, on the other side of 2012, all I can think of is; what do we do next?

Two weeks before we put this issue to bed I was told that one of the stars in the Orion constellation had just gone Super-Nova. This event is so huge, its ramifications made me realize that beyond a certain point, the whole question of ‘what do we do next?’ can only be answered from moment to moment. As stellar infusions alter everything about us, transforming the fabric of our reality from the inside out, maybe the best we can do is be receptive and remain open to whatever these new frequencies have to teach us.

If all of the above has you wondering if the Spring Equinox will be turbo-charged by Orion’s super-nova emanations, the answer is ‘Yes’. Those forces are bound to be potentized by the recent shift to a totally female bandwidth. With other indicators telling us that life on this planet is already walking the fine line between one level of consciousness and the next, our annual opportunity to hit the reset button and start all over again, will turn the 2013 Vernal Cross Quarter into a triple-strength version of its usual self.

I don’t know about you but I am getting ready for it. For some reason all I want to do is stay in a place that allows me to receive these emanations and find out what they’re all about. This is easier to do when I come from Love, and keep it simple. From there I can see that the whole question of what to do next  lives inside each one of us.

This is why we need to go within and listen closely. This is what we’re here for. More than anything, by the time the Sun hits the Aries Point, our prayers for a new beginning need to be filled with a higher kind of light, a clearer sense of what to do next, and visions of the future that reflect what is written on the walls that line the inner chambers of our hearts.

With Love,
