Making Change - The Beginning of the New Year
5th January , 2007
The beginning of the new year is traditionally a time when we try and break with the past and create something new or something slightly different for the coming year. Or, put it another way it is the time when many of us make our New Years Resolutions!
The break in routine that the Christmas period provides can be a good time for reflection, a time where we look at our lives and see how it is that we might like to change or develop them. This part always seems to me like the easy part, the difficultly normally comes along when you run into the challenge of actually making the changes. This of course means facing or dealing with the issues - the thought patterns or emotions - that need releasing in order that we can make the changes we want in our lives.
An Essence which is often useful to help with the process of change is the “Making Change” combination. This combination will help you to find the courage and strength to make new beginnings.
On to 2007
One of the themes that seems strong at the start of this year is the need to balance our inner masculine and inner feminine energies. Most of us err more towards one side or the other. For example too much masculine energy can lead to difficulties in life with authority /father figures or being controlling or finding it difficult to listen to our intuition . A fear of using our own masculine energy will sometimes lead us to identify with the weak and vulnerable parts of ourselves, and to project the ‘rejected’ aspects outside onto those around us.
Those with an imbalance of feminine energy can often be sensitive individuals - both male & female - who have a good intuition but need to develop their mental skills and ‘doing’ energy, in order to manifest their creativity in the world.
Ideally there should be a perfect balance of the two energies and this allows us to use the qualtities of each energy to help to create what it is that we want in our lives.
Two essences that help with this re-balancing are the:-
Balancing Masculine combination - for when you have an imbalance of masculine energy
Balancing Feminine combination - for when you have imbalance of feminine energy.
Both of these two essences are focused on releasing the patterns that prevent us from having a harmony of masculine and feminine energy within.
I wish you all the very best for the new year and as ever, if you need any help or advice, please do contact us here at Crystal Herbs!
