This winter solstice I decided to provide a new series of posts: Gaia’s oracle. The first message is a very important one, as it guides us into and through the coming year.
The pictures show the Solstice Gateway layout I have created for this occasion. I am using the Earthbound Oracle by A. L. Swartz and Mondrunen by Yonanda la Tura.
The main theme of this message is fear. We are at a turning point now, the turning point of the sun, and while we are going through the greatest darkness of this cycle, we are not only asked, but guided to let go of our own fear. There is a vision that we carry, maybe for a long time already. We are called to carry this vision forward, into the next year and into the next chapter. But now is the very time to let go of those things that really hold us back from manifesting this vision on a deep level. Let yourself be guided by your intuition and as the days grow longer, we will rise like the butterfly, effortlessly and gracefully. For now, let this energy be tranformed through the power of the sun, so it can shine when the time comes. This time now is simply that, a point of letting go. That also means recognising both sides, both powers within oneself as equal and embracing the change.
Furthermore, the two runes as energies of the two channels of the gateway, indicate that we need to know ourselves and our goals. Know exactly where you want to go and you are already set on the way. Of course they also show the stillstand, or keeping something under the surface (isa) and the rise after that (tiwaz). They also remind us that it takes courage to live our own truth.
By looking inward we realize: ’You don’t need to fear. Let it go.’
