Every month when I start the energy report I get a vision for
the month’s energy and for August I see snowy white diapers hanging on a
clothesline. Now if you used cloth diapers on your babies, as I did,
you know that they aren’t snowy white when you hang them up, they are
all stained and blotchy but after a few hours in the sun they
become bright white. So, no matter what July dished up, August’s energy
can make it beautifully clear and bright but you may have to sit out in
the sun for a while and that doesn’t mean get a suntan, it means to
spend some time shining your light. August is the sign of Leo, the lion
and lions are known for their courage. There are many opportunities for
creative manifestation, love, heart opening, and new potentials if we
have the courage to shine. This month’s themes are courage, creativity,
clarity, love (in its energetic form), and integration.
The word
courage is from the French word ‘coeur’ which means heart. ‘Courage is
not the absence of fear, it is the presence of heart. We don’t need to
get rid of our fears to have courage, we need to have the courage (or
heart) to act in spite of our fears.’ If July brought up all of your
fears, August inspires you to take action without feeling the need to
wait until they go away. You may think you have to wait for the right
moment or to be confident that you are ready but the only way to create
movement is to take a step forward. The step doesn’t have to be big, it
just has to be a step.We tend to use the word ‘love’ in the romantic
sense but love is an energy first, and an emotion second.
