Involuntary psychic growth is inspired by the energies of this month. The theme seems to be the influence of dreams (waking and sleeping) on your life and the new patterns that are now emerging.

Moon phases are often associated with patterns of growth and regeneration. This month catapults the moon’s energies up a notch to levels in which you have no choice but to notice the synchronicity happening all around you.

This month not only do you have inspiration from the dreams. But those dreams are motivating your conscious self into action. You now have the life force to finally energize your physical body into action and manifest the changes you have been desiring.

Most of our desires are built on a shaky molten sea of fear. That fear can feel like an unsatisfying sea that leads you nowhere. This causes us to attempt to find safety, security, and comfort in order to assuage those fears or at least make them manageable.

However, there is another way. That way is presenting itself this month. It is a leap of faith in which you learn to transform your most base desires into freedom. When you take those leaps of faith you unleash hidden energies within the body that give you renewed strength. This can free you from your lower darker impulses, which are often the way your ego attempts to mitigate the fears within.

You have a body. Within that body are chakras and energetic centers that you identify with or those that you attempt to deny and avoid. But your body is a whole being. You cannot deny that which is naturally occurring. Often you must learn how to use and harness those energies effectively and that can take time. It is always the lower, darker aspects in which we are the most afraid. But all energy can be constructive when it is integrated properly. The example is that lust can transform into love and love can transform into totality. A totality where everything is connected and aligned in bliss.

Wouldn’t that would be wonderful?

This month take clear notice of your deep desires and dreams and notice the fear that is underlying it and preventing it from expanding into your physical reality. It is time to befriend your basic instinct and allow the true wonderful life force within you to move and open your world to a new possibility. Most people either are enslaved by their own passions and energies, they try to control them (which never works all the time), or they feel swept along by their desires.

Instead, become more conscious and present with all of your energies. Create a daily check in with all of them. Start by going through all your chakras one at a time. Start with the upper ones and work your way down into the lower and baser life force energies that you hold. See them all in your mind as archetypes. Give them personalities and ask them what they need from you and the other archetypes in order to feel whole and appreciated. Listen to the answers and incorporate those answers into you daily life patterns.

Awareness is the key to healing on all levels. When something is denied it will surface in dysfunctional ways that are often inappropriate and out of context. When you are aware and conscious, you will notice that energy. If you are not in denial of it then you learn to sit with that energy and allow all the information, wisdom, and messages to come to you naturally. This will allow you to feel more whole and complete.

Remember, you are not just one individual archetype. You are all of them together. Learn to communicate within and you will be amazed at how those archetypes that you have denied will become huge energetic allies in the forward progression of your dreams..
