The SHIFT has begun, as so many of you know! very exciting indeed! We are right now in the backsplash of the 2012 Solstice, feeling very transformative, sometimes a roller coaster, sometimes the peace beyond understanding. To understand it better, and to have some words for it, we will look at some metaphors of radical change such as the serpent shedding his skin. We will also offer a 2012 version of the search for the Holy Grail. And we will bid a grateful farewell to the cycle we are leaving, opening our collective arms to the New Beginning given us at this momentous time in human history. As One, we will send blessings to our beautiful world, in the midst of our extraordinary collective and personal birthing of a new order of Human Awareness.
