The September Face and Grace of the Goddess: Lightning by Sarah Uma

The fires of transformation are burning, the waters purging, the winds of change are rearranging the world as we have known it. As I asked the Oracle, “What archetypal energy will we be working with this moon,” I pulled the Lightning card; catalyst for change, a tool of the Primal Goddess. This card denotes radical change in the reality which you have carefully constructed for your ego's comfort and security. The Tower card in the tarot is seen as being struck by lightning; the Tower being the old structures burning, coming down.

The element of fire holds the power to purify, penetrate and release. As we look upon all that is arising in our collective mind field we can see and feel major change is upon us. In this last week we have had many life events that are mirroring this. An earthquake shaking the East Coast, possibly effecting a nuclear reactor, uprising all over the planet, and a hurricane that is threatening the entire East Coast.

The Primal Goddess is wild, untamed and free. She will shake you until you awaken to your intrinsic spiritual nature. As you experience higher states of consciousness, this lightning vibrationally amplifies truth while revealing whatever is out of alignment with the truth of your essential being. The Shakti Lightning in the blood can be interpreted as passion. Passion is potency: a true forgetting of the self in ecstatic union with the Divine. Asking you, "What will you do with the passion that is aroused by this powerful force? What fulfillment, creation, change or awakening is the passion actually calling to be catalyzed? What is desiring to be being burned away, catalyzed or manifested in the potent-ized field of passion"? This is an invitation to stop and contemplate the answers to these challenges.

Lightning trains consciousness in the nature of expanding vibration. Lightning starts out as a small signal from Earth, becoming vibrational detonation. Lightning appears to come from above but in truth it actually is formed within the ground and magnetized from the sky, joining the electromagnetic forces of the Universe.

The nature of this frequency of fire/orange can easily be recognized in the crystal fire opal. It symbolizes, like fire, the frequency of the powerful yet elusive Shakti force. If you want to amplify this energy frequency, burn the scent of musk or santel. Sit with or imagine an orange cobra lily. Then imagine in meditation a hooded cobra, wolf or jaguar, allow it to be your guide to transmit the wisdom of this frequency.

We are now in the midpoint of Night Five of the Universal Underworld, according to the Mayan calendar, the destructive phase of the 9th Underworld. During this time we are being asked to deepen in the wisdom that we cannot expect anything to change in the outer world without changing yourself!

The Shakti Lightning is a powerful force that moves stagnate energy and opens you to union with the Divine, igniting to reveal, to burn away, to catalyze, to awaken. As we witness the changes in the outer world and rise above what appears to be chaos and destruction, let us open to see and realize (Real Eyes) a new world that is arising and awakening.

As we move into Day Six of the Universal Underworld September 5-22 let us join hearts and unite in the Golden Light that is streaming in, reveling the interconnectedness of all beings reveling our Oneness.

Feel the passion that is exploding within, ready to express itself. Let that energy move you, dance you, sing you, shock you into the Divine vibration that you are.

Let the Lightning of consciousness En- Lighten you to your true essence.Embody the Shakti, be the lightening force, let your passion be the change!!

Blessed Be...Shakti Shakti Shakti!
