Equinox blessing and Reality check!
Here’s an Equinox Blessing and “multiple realities” check. Plus, if you are in the North Bay Area, there’s an invite (below) to join us for sunset and a living ceremony on the cliffs of Bodega Headlands.
We’re here, just in time for the profound transition that is occurring with the March 2024 Equinox on Tuesday the 19th at 8:06pm PDT. Please find this moment for your time zone. You’ll want to remember where you were, and what you were doing. A moment unlike any other is arriving: We are now out of time!
No panic! We still have plenty of timelessness in which to come to our senses – to make the journey from the mind, with its thoughts, plans, schemes, and agendas, to the heart – to the source of the vast life affirming flow of love radiating from the deepest heart of hearts. We’re beyond this Equinox Blessing being a simple “reality check.” We’re now looking at a “multiple over-lapping realities” check!
An overarching reality is that we are presently being challenged with multiple over-lapping emergencies, while no longer having the comfort of believing that we live in a consensual reality where we all basically want the same things. Because, knocking at the door of “business as usual” in our world is the vastness, calling us out.
And our choice now is:
1) “waking up” to the preciousness of life because we blew it, or,
2) “waking up” to the immediate necessity for us to celebrate life, by caring for life and our world as our single most compelling priority.
So, let’s look, and then let’s decide what we’re up to. Here is a short “multiple over-lapping realities” check:
Our cosmological evolutionary awakening has been to recognize that while we are spiraling around our Sun, our entire solar system has a relationship with the Great Mysterious Sun at the center of our Galaxy.The reality is that the long prophesied “new age” has arrived: on the spiral arm of our Galaxy, we have just recently moved into an “open field” relationship with the center of our Galaxy.
We are now experiencing direct contact with massive waves of energy emanating from our Great Central Sun – waves of multi-high frequency uni-polar energies. And, an update is that huge energy generators that are called “Fermi Bubbles,”extending 25,000 light years above and below the central plane of our galaxy, are now being seen by our gamma-ray orbiting telescopes as a flowing mobius structure generating vast coherent energies on a vertical axis at the center of our galaxy. In other words, energy waves emanating from the center of our galaxy are now flowing freely and they are rocking our solar system and our world with greatly amplified coherent flowing energy from the center of our galaxy.
Our understanding of Equinoxes and Solstices has evolved. We once held very hemi-centric views that Equinoxes and Solstices marked the shifting of our seasons. For example, that this is the “Spring Equinox.” Meanwhile, in the Southern Hemisphere this is the “Fall Equinox.” But, here in the Northern Hemisphere we ignored that, and especially at what we called the “Winter Solstice” we would say things like: “the light is returning….” True and un-true, right? Because from a global point of view, we know the light has always been right here, and so has the dark.
Here’s what’s happening here on earth at this moment:as we orbit our sun, we are now moving directly INTO this energetic wave emanation. And, we’ll be directly IN the field of the energetic wave’s emanation at this coming June Solstice. So, we’re coming around the mountain, and again entering the flow of tremendous coherent energy, like we haven’t seen for 230 some million years – the time it takes us to orbit our Galactic Center.
So, what’s happening here on Earth?
The very same beautiful coherent and harmonized energy that is ushering in our new age is simultaneously disintegrating and rattling apart the structures and systems of cultural coherence that we call our “civilization.” Our experience of this is that the cultural, sociological, economic, political, religious, business, agricultural, educational, medical, judicial, psychological, astronomical, scientific, spiritual, philosophical, and cosmological systems that have governed our world are failing us. The lack of integrity at the core of our “civilization” has also been expanded, and systems with this lack of integrity are becoming obsolete.
Reality Check: we’ve reached the end of our civilization’s capacity to sustain itself. Our “civilization” no longer provides coherence to our experience of life. And, that hurts. It’s confusing. We just want things to be OK. But sadly, we have affected all of life on our planet. The interlinking vibrancy of our global ecosystems have been seriously damaged, and we’re now at the edge of our planet’s ability to sustain life. We’re experiencing increasingly erratic and severe weather patterns, we’re in the “sixth extinction” of the world’s species we share life with, and our unrelenting investment in weaponry and warfare is leading us – and all of life – towards a dismal destructive future.
What we’re witnessing now on the world stage is the amplification of an aberration. This aberration, that infected our species, is an illness: it is the predatory exploitation, domination, and enslavement of life by a few power wielders who use fear to enforce our compliance, subservience, and obedience to their self-serving agendas.
And, a light has been turned on! We can’t avoid seeing the devastation and damage that the violence, corruption, exploitation, and enslavement of life has done.And yet, simultaneously, we see – feel – hear – and are experiencing these incoming waves of coherent energy. These magnificent pulses of harmony, of beauty and mysterious encouragement, are coming straight from the heart of creation.
We’re in a weird place, right? It’s a crisis, a crossroads choice point: We are now in a place of shock, horror, pain, and heartbreak, while simultaneously we’re experiencing a thrilling, mind-blowing, eye-opening revelation of the precious deep beauty of life in all its glory, right here, right now. Grief and joy, both right here, right now, together.
And, this is our moment to restore peace and harmony within ourselves. We can restore both light and darkness to their rightful place as equal partners – as lovers – no longer co-opted by those that would exploit life. We can be assured that what is happening now isn’t about “Lightworkers vs. Dark Forces.” That’s the divisive game of the predatory exploiters. This is revelation! The systems that have governed our lives are coming apart to the extent to which they are innately corrupt and lacking in integrity.
Reality check: yes! It’s a mess.
But simultaneously, the same energies that are disintegrating the civilization we have known are bringing love, care, compassion, and kindness, the essence of the new world emerging.
What’s happening now: in the face of the multiple over-lapping emergencies that challenge us in this moment, YOU are being called to emerge with the unique giftedness that is the essence and gift of YOU!
No more pretending to be just a tiny inconsequential speck protecting itself from the savagery of the world. You are the world. And the harmony you find within yourself creates the flow of life affirming love that heals our world – bringing creative solutions to the damage and distress our species has caused here. And you’ve heard it here: It is simply a better strategy for living your life, to be agile, creative, resourceful, and responsive, rather than being disempowered, depressed, despairing, and unable to face the challenges of our times. The opportunity is here now for you to directly experience the gift that you are – to catch the wave of your own beauty and Presence, and to become a creative artist of life.
Reality check: You are the necessary gift of this moment.
You are here and alive within a vast vortexing cosmic iridescently frothing multi-verse, with galaxies, “black holes”, super-nova’s, stars, planets, our sun, moon, earth, all in wild open space. All of us spiraling around our own whirling flowering mountains, oceans, trees, the wind, bird songs, the dark beauty of jaguars, of bright sun-lit butterflies, the sparkle of breaching whales, swift foam leaping dolphins, crazy little otters, high soaring eagles, squinty-eyed foxes, squawking raven families, rushing rivers, blazing desserts, sleepy dogs, laughing children, and we are us – all of us.
Reality: We’re all in all of this together.
We co-create together, and we can celebrate together! It’s true. Gather with your family, your friends, your community – and together create a simple living ceremony. Acknowledge that life is sacred, we are sacred. Our choice is “waking up” and celebrating life – caring for life and our world. Step into the Holy together, into the deep silence from which all of this emerges. Then – no words – the gift of you is here!
Celebrate! Share the moment! Life is awakening to care for life!
And, you are that – love in action.
Feral blessings,
Francis Rico
An invitation to those in the North Bay
You’re invited to join a small community of feral celebrants on the sacred cliffs of the Bodega Headlands overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
• Be ready to go, in the Bodega Head parking lot, by 6:45pm. We’ll walk out to our beautiful cliff site at 7:00pm PDT.
• Sunset is at 7:22pm, so bring a flashlight for the walk back in the dark.
• Bring layers for whatever the evening weather brings
• Bring something beautiful for the altar – herbs, flowers, a crystal, a stone, your sacred objects. No big deal, just bring something.
• No pets or unsupervised children. It’s a 100 foot drop to the ocean and rocks.
