Dealing with Negativity

My Beloved Goddess, I greet you well.

We are experiencing Mercury in retrograde, a Full Flower Moon takes place on May 5 in Scorpio and increased solar winds and coronal mass ejections from our sun. With all these new energies, it’s a time of great stirring. Some will rise to the top; some will sink lower. A polarization is happening for those who know. For some it’s a time of excitement, for some it’s fearful. A time of elevation, a time of foreboding.

As for me, I am happy to be experiencing this great unfolding, though at times it can be a bit much interacting with those not in a state of grace. I confess, their negativity hurts – physically, mentally, and emotionally. A lot of patience and grace is needed to help keep it together. I have observed, when some are exposed to new energies of light and love, it does not make them happy. Their words drip with vitriol, their demeanor becomes unstable, and they can react with aggression and violence.
 
I can’t say I fully understand this reaction however it’s one to be aware of as I travel this challenging terrain. I know in part it is due to a lack of preparation to receive new energies and then there is the bit of not wanting to change, preferring to stay the same. Good time to remind ourselves that all is energy. And Energy by its nature moves and expands in divine love. As such one must realize that change is the norm and not the exception. Yet some find it extremely difficult going through change and they lash out at others. See poem, Light is shining yet not for me.
 
What has helped me is knowing that growth comes with change. This change is for my good, for new experiences, all of which is part of the divine plan. Next is knowing that I am not alone. My angels and guides, nature and the elements along with our Great Spirit are with me. There is no separation. We are one.
 
Additionally, there is the recognition that I am not being punished. I am experiencing a letting go, a release and a re-alignment. With each new opportunity, my trust in divine guidance reassures and strengthens me.
 
For those not in a state of grace, I send them love and light, then step away and give them room to be. Returning to my quiet space, I re-balance my energies, rest and restore the calm within. No need to convince anyone of anything. We all have our own journeys to attend to.
 
I am so grateful for my spirit team that help me to stay grounded, shielding me from negative influences. Thank you too my beloved Goddess for sending me love and light.
With gratitude always,
Journeyed Warrior
