Dreams are the seedlings of realities.
Earlier in this cycle I came across a video of David Wolfe talking about being in the Holy Flow, where he says, “It’s about remembering the magical elements and sacred moments in life. A reconnection to the mystery. A return to the Holy Flow.” Although his talk is not about astrology, what he said about the holy flow and the state of grace spoke to me of the Pisces cycle at its best.
I became so caught up in the dream time, I neglected to journal during the Full phase. Almost the entire 3 days was spent playing in Photoshop designing flyers for all the different dream seeds that have been dancing through my mind. I took advantage of the Disseminating phase to post mock ups of the flyers on Facebook and am receiving lots of wonderful feedback.
Have you ever had a dream that was so delightful that when you wake up you wish you could go back to sleep and continue dreaming? The Last Quarter phase asked for a reality check and I was in need of one. In reassessing and reorganizing my priorities, I see that I forgot that this cycle is about dreaming the future, rather than attempting to manifest it. I took a few of my dream seeds for the coming year and began working on them as though I could make them a reality before the end of the lunar cycle. Oh, silly me. Good thing I can laugh at myself.
On the other hand, it is a good phase for decisions. We’ve decided to stay in this house for another year, which knowing that this is a year of big changes, provides some stability, along with peace of mind. My dreams seeded more a dozen ideas for the future and at least a third of them are best served by staying here. I don’t know which ones I’ll actually sow, or which ones will take root, and flourish but I’m pleased that there are so many.
As I came to terms with reality during the last phase, I experienced a certain amount of self recrimination for ignoring the lessons of natural timing that I teach. I know better, yet there I was. It was an “Ah Ha” moment of recognition. My work with the lunar cycles is what keeps me ‘on time’ and in the moment as much as possible.
Today I’m surrendering my fears, doubt, and confusion, along with all my dreams. I believe in the future and in my ability to flow into it mindfully from moment to moment. Two more days until we wake up to the new Aries cycle.
