A genuinely fascinating convergence of views of the times. It sure feels like much of the world (certainly the English speaking global diaspora and our European homelands) is entering major inflection period. This is echoed by the triggering of the Sahm Rule Recession Indicator (https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/SAHMREALTIME) which just this last week indicated the US economy is entering into a major recession. I found Solarah's comment that: "[i]t is time for a reset and reboot on our terms of engagement, and in obeyance to the universal laws and protections which are designed to keep us all safe and free..." definitely resonates with so much of what has been, and will continue to go on. The Sahm Rule has accurately predicted every recession for many decades, and it is almost certainly correct once again. Given the current energies, it is a good time to clear away excess accumulations. Late summer, early autumn is a great time for yard sales. Excess stuff weighs us down, but we live in an economic world that has been foisting it on to us for years. It's a good time to turn nonessentials, especially all those items to which you have no strong karmic bonds or memory links, into cash, and squirrel that cash away, because the fat years are over, and the lean years are just beginning. As Solarah notes, "...saying “NO” to all that seeks to deplete and diminish our life force..." is the spirit of this time. Get ready to create, repair and restore. Clean up and sharpen your tools. Check your art and craft supplies. If you are a musician, get some new strings or reeds while they are still available. Get those summer harvests canned and ready for winter. Clean out the dross, tidy the shelves. In doing so, you'll give yourself peace of mind, and ready yourself for the amazing times that are surely ahead.
