Intuitive Patterns for the Month of July, 2008


The story of Taliesin is an Arthurian legend of a great poet and singer. As a child he was assigned the task of taking care of a magical brew of knowledge from a witch. This witch was going to give it to her deformed son as compensation for his looks. Taliesin was to stir it for a year and a day to infuse the potion with his knowledge. But at the end of this time, Taliesin accidentally spilled some of the brew on himself and licked it off, thus giving him the full gifts of this potion. With this gift of total knowledge he knew that the witch was planning on killing him after his task was done. Taliesin knew that he needed to run away but the witch discovered that the brew was now worthless and pursued him over great distances to kill him.

Taliesin shaped shifted into many creatures but the witch became one bigger and able to eat him. Until finally the witch caught up with him as he changed into a grain of wheat. The witch changed into the shape of a black hen and ate the grain of wheat. When the witch came back into human form she realized that she was now pregnant with a child, the same person that she wanted to kill. When the child was born he was so beautiful she could not kill him and so she set him adrift upon the sea in a leather bag. A nephew of the king found the bag and so this child was raised and cared for in the protection of the king’s family. It was quickly discovered that this child was brilliant and magical. He eventually became the seer for the Kingdom of Britain and many people heard and were inspired by his words.

This story is an interesting one for the upcoming election. Each candidate must find the words that can magically unite the hearts of Americans. Their inspired songs and poetry will be the deciding factor in this election. One candidate will be that one with whom the majority of Americans can align behind and feel inspired to create a beautiful world in which good values can inspire others like the great songs and poems of ancient times.

We want to feel as if in our own small way we can contribute to the growth of a civilization and eventually the world. The pattern indicates that we all need to remember that Fortune is never fair. She is blind, and in spinning her wheel. Yet, change is always a good thing.

Either candidate will be inspired to make massive changes in our systems. We are in challenging times. They do not have to be bad but they have to be dealt with directly. The patterns of the past 30 years are shifting regardless of how much any of us want to be nostalgic of the past. We cannot go back. We must look forward to ways to deal with the growing problems before it is too late to manifest the requirements that are going to be needed for this new and shifting world in which we find ourselves.

This is a time of tremendous transformation. But we need to drop all of our past defensive postures and take off the armor and let go of the nagging clouds of self-doubt and guilt. Life at times will lead you to go astray. But there is no need to dwell in quilt. Challenges are how each of us learns lessons and experiences growth.

Look at the paradise in which you are living right now. How grateful are you each moment of each day that you are an American? Take comfort in that if you are allowing your mind to pull you under with guilt or fear. You are placed in a position of great safety and security by comparison to many other places on this planet. Appreciate the miracle that you are here at this time on this planet. You must have done something right to be here.

Drop the old feelings of disappointment and resentment and look to the ways to that liberate the joy in your life. Whenever your achieving mind becomes involved in your life you begin to loose contact with the paradise you are in. That leads down the path of misery.

Instead, look towards the opening of patterns and perspectives that allow a new manifestation of understanding. Be inspired by the heart within you that yearns for the giving of more love and connection to the world. Know that inside you is a depth that can touch the suffering of others with its knowledge and experiences. Recognize that with your willingness to reach out you become a bridge for understanding and the giving of loving-kindness.

For this month, surrender to the openness of your heart, let go of the illusions of the past, and be willing to actively weave the threads of your reality into the greater web of life so we can all connect and support the amazing process of living on this planet together. None of us can do it alone. Together we can become something amazing that is planet has never seen. We are co-creating it together. If you can give your gifts and allow others gifts to also be honored and integrated this world would become something truly unique and inspired.
