When times of great change arrive it is the wise person who accepts them and learns how to work with them. There are pivotal points in life when a sense of never-going-back becomes clear. Such times are marks of deep rather than subtle change, both within and without, and a determination is made that has profound and lasting effects. The world you live in is going through such times now and each individual is feeling it in some way. No one escapes the effects of worldwide change. Note how your own life is changing and make adjustments that are helpful, beneficial and internally positive, even while you face the deeper meaning of the outer world’s problems. No one is alone. Where one suffers so do others. Remain in a positive frame of mind that keeps abreast of the change and changes too.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

You have the innate ability to shift yourself, to change yourself, to advance yourself. Whether you need some kind of healing or some kind of motivation, you have within you the knowledge and energy to take on the task. In quiet inner work, in looking to the self rather than to others, this innate ability will emerge. Your own wisdom is all you need. Sit quietly and breathe. Let the mind be still by emptying it constantly of patter; eventually it will be calm. With practice your inner journey to wisdom, healing, insight and new vitality will not only begin but, before you know it, you will be well on the way to the change you need and desire. It all begins within.

Sending you love,

Misunderstandings occur when there is a failure to communicate accurately. This can lead to devastating consequences, both in the world between any two or more people as well as within the self. The only way to overcome misunderstandings is to be truthful, but being truthful is often a tricky proposition, for there is often a lack or inability to be truthful within the self. How then can truth be told outside of the self? Seek to be truthful, as you face your own dilemmas, and seek first resolution within. The truth can be a hard truth or it can simply mean taking a look from a different perspective. Either way, some form of acceptance will be required, within and without.

Conflict, in order to resolve, requires compromise, but compromise is often impossible if there is not acceptance of the other side, if there is not an ability to see all things in the same light, if there is not the ability to gain a new perspective and give full heart and soul to seeking balance that benefits all sides. Conflict goes deeper than is observable, for deep feelings, often unknown, are at the base of all conflict. Until feelings are felt conflict will continue its reign. Allow the heart to fully feel, the soul to speak and the energy of change to have a say. From a place of deep truth, let your own conflicts be fully known and may your honest findings lead to new beneficial change, for your own greater good and the good of all.

Sending you love,

Strive for balance so that the energy of desire is in synch with the creative within, so that what you want in life does not overpower what you need, so that how you live does not overpower the desires of your spirit, so that your body, mind, and spirit maintain a passionate yet sympathetic balance at all times. In balance find stability, calmness, and a creativity that is unmatched. Each day is another opportunity to strive for balance.
