Worm Hole Deactivates
Welcome to the Virgo New Moon and the close of the wormhole. We have traversed uncharted territory since the Pisces Full Moon two weeks ago widened our vision—both inner and outer—and provided the experience of living with an expanded vista. Things that seemed shrouded in mystery or secrecy suddenly were revealed, and we learned that they had been hiding in plain sight all along. Now that we see these formerly shadowed places, we can appreciate the role they played in our growth by providing us with a new capacity for discernment. Looking back, the Gemini New Moon on 13 June kicked off this process of discovering what discernment means, and how it contributes to self-awareness. We learned what it meant through the experience of Love.
Here at the end of the wormhole we find we are more awake than we ever dreamed we would be, and lo-and behold, it seems to have landed in all the right places. This unprecedented knowledge conveys the message that everything that happens in our lives forms a crucial part of our experience. Denying an emotional response or discounting an idea that appears foreign creates a shadow place for that feeling or thought to dwell in, unclaimed. When we ignore them, they grow out of proportion and hidden from view, until we offer up the simple recognition they deserve. Then we can release these shadow thoughts and feelings and they flow away. Our task is to embrace all our feelings and use our emotional intelligence to discern what best serves our Selves and all those around us through the five human values of truth, right action, peace, love, and non-violence.
