The Aquarian Thing!

Hold Each Other’s Hand!

February 8, 2011

Yikes! Do you feel as though you have just jumped off a speeding train to now hanging tightly to the outside of a hurtling space shuttle? Is it all going too fast to be controlled?

Are your old expectations of the way things should be happening getting smashed right and left? Did the dog shred your plans for your present and your future? Are old forgotten fears jumping up and slapping you in the face? Do you feel your workload increasing exponentially—like having to plow the bottom forty using a teaspoon? Are you short on gas, but your gauge reads “overwhelm”? Well, it’s happening to everybody!! No one is immune.

That, my Dears is evidence of our switch-over to the extremely speeded up energies of the Aquarian Age! Yes, this is it! It may feel truly frantic where you are. And since it affects everyone, you may feel your co-workers, friends and family demanding more of you at every turn, and so there’s no one to help you, nowhere to lay your head for a little respite. Tempers get shorter, but your to-do list gets longer.

So, here’s a great solution.

When someone comes to you in that frenetic panic, lay aside your own most concentrated and strangling “fast forward” modus operandi. Then hold that person’s hand (figuratively or in actuality), do some good heart breath to pull yourself back into the Real You—that great place of no/all time and no/all space. Then listen, LISTEN clearly and intently to the other person. Now you can HELP them accomplish what they need. It may take just a few seconds of your focused interest to help them calm back down. Or it may take an hour or two of your joining with them to get over the hump together.

But the point is, you have joined with them—presence to presence, heart to heart, simply, without impatience, or anger, or depression, or fear. You have welcomed them into your solitary space, you have expanded your “space” to exponentially bring about more Light and both of your experience of that Light! Be aware of the blessing and the joy of such simple simpatico. This is what is behind real Seva, or “selfless service.” It is a chance to expand beyond our tiny, singular framework to feel the heightened Oneness that is available in our very Real connecting. So, you can only be grateful for the opportunity! “Grudgingly” doesn’t operate here.

Now, I am not saying to avoid the responsibilities of your own life. But here is your chance to drop your fears about not having enough time, money, help, goods or energy. We are talking about courage to truly, firmly know that when you offer this kind, joined help with another to solve their dilemma, your responsibilities will also be covered somehow, even seemingly miraculously—by the great Force that runs through both of you, and that makes ALL happen.

This is the real, tangible way that we get through this Aquarian Age. We come out of our “ME” shells, and join together for the benefit of each other. Sharing “heart” is the glue of community, and we already know that community is paramount in all ways in this upcoming time.

So, remember. When someone is panicked, lost, overburdened, drowning in fear and so on, don’t judge. We can’t judge others because we all visit those difficult places at times. And don’t separate from them. Instead, just breathe, cool your jets, and hold their hand sweetly and firmly to accomplish with them whatever they need at the moment—not FOR them, but WITH them. Then you become Aquarian. And have the humility to accept this heart joining when it comes to you. Really a much more sparkly and free place to be!
