Today, like no other time before, understanding how we are interconnected to the whole network of life, what that means, and how we are meant to work with that knowledge is vital. We have spent more than fifty years investigating our own inner consciousness, realizing that we are naturally intuitive, and learning that our essential life design is an integrated system that weaves together three dimensions of consciousness; specifically, a physical nature, an emotional/mental nature, and a spiritual/intuitive nature. We are realizing more and more that we are imprinted with archetypal patterns that animate their myths into our psyche and we view our personal world through these myths. Change one myth, shift it just a little, and our entire world crumbles.
Our entire world functions on the same truths – or laws – as each of us does as individuals. The archetypes that influence us as individuals are also at play within the formation of world events. The world events that have the same archetypes as you, therefore, will impact your psyche so much more. You will “feel” the event forming in the cosmic field even before it manifests in physical form, just as you “feel” a personal event forming in your own life before you actually encounter it. It may be as small as thinking about someone who you then run into, or going through a prolonged period of “feeling” depleted of energy. Let’s say you go for a physical during that time, telling your physician that you just don’t feel good; yet, no actual physical illness is diagnosed. Still, you “feel” just awful – lethargic, depressed, and further, you own intuition is telling you that something is just not right. Then you learn about a major earthquake and you find yourself exceptionally overwhelmed by that event and the loss of life. You find that you, too, have to recover because the entire event seems to be connected to your health. Why? Because the event is connected through your soul and one or more of your archetypes.
We live in a world that is on a rapid trajectory of change. We now have to absorb and cope with a year’s worth of changes in a month and soon it will be a week. We need to rely upon our inner resources to understand with greater skill and depth the patterns of change we are living through, as this is a most extraordinary time in human history. It is a time of phenomenal transition and transformation but that also means it is a time of letting go of so much that is familiar. We have been spiritually preparing for this for half a century – and yet, in many ways, we had no idea what exactly we were preparing for, much less did we take the concept of transformation seriously.
But you can feel it in the atmosphere and you can see it in the constant changing of the rules in our world. It is everywhere, even in the way in which people relate to each other today. We ourselves have changed. Something has been transformed in us deep at our core – even if we cannot yet language it. We just know it. You intuitively know. You know that you are a very different person than you were two years or even one decade ago and that the defining characteristics of what makes you different today are that: You are more intuitive, you are more attuned to the environment, you are more sensitive to food products, you are more responsive to the suffering of others, you are always involved in healing yourself or someone else. I could go on and on about how and why your life has changed – and I will in this workshop. I will help you connect the dots to the micro-macro patterns in your own life: What events are you attached to? And how do you “feel” or “sense” events unfolding in the global arena?
And further, I want to share what these patterns of change symbolize for all of us as well as how and why they are influencing you. There is a cosmic reason why the major religions are all in crisis now and it is manifesting politically, for example. And wouldn’t we all be better off if more – if not most – people really understood that? I titled this workshop Going Deep, because I intend to weave together spiritual and mystical truths with the archetypal patterns of evolution that are unfolding, as you are connected to this entire cosmic fabric. You are a part of the whole and it is a part of you.
Love,
Caroline
