Spiritual reading — expect the unexpected

A good day to watch your tongue and actions

July 7

Please move very gently today. Many things are in fragile arrangement and can easily be toppled or thrown into disarray. Walk lightly and hold your power closely. This is not a day for shaking things up or for asserting your will on that which surrounds you. You have an expression which aptly describes the situation today: your world is a house of cards. Any abrupt, thoughtless or misjudged action could bring it down around you.

There is so much that is in transition and in the process of transformation. Foundations are being excavated and rebuilt in order to properly support the new structures which are needed in order for you to move forward into a sustainable life. While this is happening, there are moments when nothing is solid, nothing is particularly reliable and nothing can withstand what might under other circumstances be deemed normal pressure.

Now, this may sound rather abstract and we want to make it as concrete as possible. You may find that the things that ground you no longer serve in many instances. There may be a sense of shifting sands beneath your feet, and little that can be turned to, even in moments of small stress or distress. This is apt to produce disproportionate responses, both in yourself and in others. Be on the lookout for your own over-the-top reactions and do everything you can to be soothing and uneventful with others.

It also means that the web of which you are an integral part is experiencing changes. Energetically the ways in which you connect with one another and with all other forms of consciousness are altering. There are what one might call tears, or holes where once you could pull or tug and count on resistance or solidity. Again, we fear this may sound abstract, and we will attempt to put it in terms most usable.

When you take action you have a relatively good idea of what the outcome or consequence will be. You cannot always predict, but you have learned to know when you are venturing into uncharted territory and when you are in a comfort zone. When you say “good morning” to a friend or acquaintance, you reasonably expect a pleasant response. When you throw a rock into a lake, you expect a splash and concentric ripples. You have learned to navigate your world. This can be a rough road; you have traveled it well. But now, all is in transition, and nothing is to be counted on. We are not saying that you won’t get a splash when you toss a pebble into a puddle, but in this time it is wise for you to proceed without any expectation that you know how the forces of consciousness which reside on your planet will respond to your own consciousness and action. We suggest that you proceed as if you were a baby—observing, looking for patterns, for information, for communication from the world around.

All in all, it could be a good day for contemplation, for watching and loving and being present. Try to put away for another day any big plans, any desire to control or manipulate things in your world, your work, your relationships. You will not really be the master of your own energy or power, and they will not necessarily do your bidding. Sit back, pay attention, be a beginner and you will do no harm and see much.

We send you patience and love and blessings as always. — E. West
