Giving Birth to the New Earth[/caption]
May 1st is May Day. It is a time to honor all those who are workers, some would call it Labor Day. I invite you to shift your perception of what it means to be a worker and see through the archetypal lens of The Great Mother.
This month also honors the earthly Mother and in some way she is one of the greatest laborers of all. Her work is never done; those of us that have been mothers understand the truth in this!
Last month we focused on the energy of the Mother in the form of the Empress, the one who births new ideas and creates and nurtures life. The Great Mother has many different forms, but they are all Love.
She is the Love that arises from a heart space and desires to express and create more fully.
The Great Mother embraces us in her holy womb of creation, where we can trust and surrender and open to receive her nurture.
What does it mean to surrender?
Surrender is the giving up of resistance in the mind to what is. Surrender is not giving up or giving over. It is a radical reliance on the Divine Self within you. When we let go of all the ways that our mind thinks it creates security and safety and leap into the void of the unknown, we are surrendering to the Divine.
Surrender into the heart where true wisdom is birthed.
We are collectively in the void, the vast space in between giving birth to a New Earth. The energy of the Great Mother can carry us through this birth as we embody her many different qualities.
Which Face of the Mother are you?
Are you the: Nurturer, Caregiver, Compassionate Heart, Truth Teller, Visionary, Liberator, Manifestor, Inspirator, Lover, Passionate Creatrix, Wisdom Keeper, Dreamer, Gate Keeper, or Alchemist...?
We need to show up and share our unique gifts in order to create from wholeness. We need to commit to living in the heart and being a vessel for this love to come through. We need to be an embodiment of this love that is co-creating a new world.
Sometimes it feels as if we are in the darkness of her womb, other times in the contraction and expansion of the birth canal, or even times when we are crowning, and see the light at the end of the canal.
It does not matter what phase of birth you are in, each one is calling you to be present and to participate in this great birth.
We are collectively in labor and we are all laborers that are being asked to continue to breathe, open, and expand into our Greatness.
Let us activate and awaken the Great Mother in us all and give birth to a glorious New Earth.
I honor and appreciate the Great Mother in each of us.
Happy Mothers Day One and All!
With unconditional love...
