Time to Embrace Change

Fire Monkey invites us to look at where change is needed in our lives. These can be places of incremental change or instances wherein we find we are at life-altering crossroads.

Sometimes we know that change is necessary, but we become paralyzed by fear of the unknown. In the unknown, so many questions arise - and they so often start with “how.”

Fire Monkey first reminds us to breathe and to be honest with ourselves. When we can be honest and accept the situation as it is, we will find it much easier to find (create) a solution for we are no longer in resistance or avoidance of the truth.

With acceptance, we will be receptive to new information and perspectives. We will also see the ways in which we need to communicate more clearly both with ourselves and others.

When we allow ourselves to listen and hear with acceptance and surrender, we are also more able to allow the wisdom of our hearts to reveal itself.

As we release attachments to the past and to fear, we are able to choose our next steps from a place of love and to welcome in possibility.

We feel more able to take risks and trust that our hearts will guide us, and that all is/will be well.

What change is your heart guiding you to make? Are you willing to embrace it?
