The Energies of January 2017 ~ Welcoming a Phase of Initiation within New Earth

Beloved Ones,

We are about to enter into a New Year and a Cycle of endless expansion, and a higher connection to our Higher Self and other cosmic companions within Creation! For we are now dwelling in a different plane of existence, having access to the purity and love of the Higher Realms that are now near to us in frequency. This is going to be a totally new experience as we diverge from old Earth, since we are going to be beginners again of New Earth - working/learning how to master our new path as well as a new and higher form of energy and totally different dimension. 

It is within this New Year 2017 as well as a New Era of love that we, due to all the constant inner work done, are ready to embody more light that our Higher Self descends to us as well as the strength to move forward and leave behind all the human limitations that we have been experiencing until recently - if not yet - as we all have our Divine Time to free ourselves from the old. 

As we are loved beyond measure within this benevolent Universe, we are softly introduced into this month of January with no major aspects and by having Mercury retrograde yet until January 8th, to soothe ourselves until we begin another intense integration phase with the coming of the Eclipses in February. We are given another month to rest, a time to ponder before we immerse ourselves in the creation of this new phase - of our lives - where doubts, fears and repeating old patterns are no longer an excuse for us to resist  fully embracing who we are, our truth and the unique soul mission - that we came here to do. 

As always, there is a time within Creation for everything, and it is now time for us to consciously create from a place of proper discernment the next steps we are going to take in our path, before being too impulsive to manifest without moving inward to commune our choices with our soul.

As a confirmation for us that it is time to make tangible our inner visions and even more with Capricorn energies still with us, this New Year holds a 1 - 10 reduced - frequency. Number 1 represents not just a new cycle but the year of initiation that we all are about to experience within New Earth and how to work with this new frequency. A time, in which we are totally stepping into unknown territory, for this is the first time within Creation that in our universe our Planet will finally bifurcate from old 3D Earth, and the ones who have consciously chosen to be on this New Earth, will enter completely empty of  expectations, of how it will be or what it will bring to us or not, just with an open heart filled with immense gratitude to be a part of this transition and with the intention to be the loving and compassionate seed beings that we, in truth are, of this New loving World.

The frequency of number 1 in tarot, is also represented by the Magician. One hand pointing to the sky and the other one towards the earth. He knows how to work with the Universal Laws, as he has mastered the art of descending into the physical what is first created in the ethereal. This is where we are at this time - envisioning our deepest soul desires at the same time that we bridge them into our New physical reality. 

We all are magicians as we all have within the power to manifest the outcomes that are aligned with our Highest Will, we just have to focus our precious energy into what is truly important, as it is not a time now to waste it on delusions and past situations, but in the new life experiences that we are building and that have nothing to do with who we used to be.

At a cosmic level, we begin this Year and month by having the Planet of Love and Abundance entering into the intuitive sign of Pisces. The energies that we are going to receive from this cosmic and magical encounter between these two loving Forces are formidable healing ones for both, the unresolved healing issues with our own selves and with our relationships. Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, hence, it invites every planet that dwells in its deep Waters, to dive deep into its visionary and healing frequency to realize if it has transcended all the challenges from the previous signs of the zodiac, and if not, to integrate all the experiences and wisdom acquired in order to move forward by being renewed and with an open heart.

For those of you who have already integrated the knowledge received from past challenges and its wounds, it is going to be a time to go deeper into your unique process of alchemical union, as the inner process of soul integration never ends, and start anchoring all the magic, manifestations and soul encounters desired from this same place of openness and wholeness, by knowing that you need no one else or any other external thing to make it happen. For others that have not yet integrated all the fragments of their souls, this is a cosmic gift for you to work with self-love/acceptance, and forgiveness when the echoes of the past begin to come back again. without judging the self or any other soul involved in this process.

It is a time to surrender, to become the observer of all the past relationships we maintained that served a purpose and that for some reason, we have not released yet and are not allowing us to fully step into new enlightened ones. Visualize all your soul past encounters, and surround them within Golden/White Light, feel the heat of the love, become aware of the perfection that these souls, in Essence are, see them as Divine beings and not as someone who hurt you. 

Speak to their souls, their human body may not be present, but their souls are fully aware of this healing process of integration and the recognition that you both are equal beings helping each other into this earthly realm to embody higher levels of love and consciousness. It is only after remembering that no one has ever done anything to you - but being a Light assisting you in your path - that true forgiveness will be embodied. And you will be able to finally transcend what was not coming from a total place of integrity, authenticity and alignment and be fully anchored in your new life.

Venusian energies (especially when it will turn retrograde in this New Year) together with the powerful ones of Neptune in this same Water sign, connect us with our inner creator, helping us to give birth to our new visions, expanding ourselves into our soul desires and other realms of existence, as this is a time for us to immerse ourselves within our inner senses - connecting to our souls, listening to our own guidance - and Divine inspirations - more than focusing on the outer. 

As we also have the asteroid Chiron in Pisces too, it is also going to assist us to heal and restore our relationships, by dissolving everything that is not pure and authentic within our own being, leading us to an inner synthesis, and helping us to establish a deeper connection with all the aspects of who we are - loving each one of them as unique and equal without any judgments - before we can love and accept others as they truly are and embrace new relationships.

On January 8th, The Winged Messenger, Mercury, will move direct. I know a lot of people still fear Mercury retrograde and count the days for this Planet finally turn direct again. This is something we all have to pass in order to remember that this is another human illusion and that the more we foment it, the more we will keep creating fears of something that is not even real. 

As ascending souls, the only thing we can do to help end this fear is to simply cease talking about it. I have been sharing a lot about my humble feelings of Mercury retrograde, but I do feel it is time for me to move on and stop talking about a cosmic event that is not even happening or affecting us as our limited human minds think, for in my reality Mercury retrograde only means the cosmic gift to evaluate my journey and it never interferes in my communications or in any important ones or in other things that are meant to occur. 

If in your journey, when Mercury is retrograde, you keep experiencing delays and/or other forms of limitations, let it be, until your human lower self realizes that Mercury is not doing anything to you and your physical reality at all but what you, yourself command it to be. It is You creating all these impediments in your path, for you are the only one who believes they are real, and as the sovereign being that the Universe sees you and that you really are, it will always fulfill your Will above all. Allow yourself to keep repeating the same old patterns of limited thoughts, it is not bad, it is something that helps you to awaken to Higher Truths when your human self is ready.

On January 12, we have a nurturing and loving Full Moon at 22 degrees of Cancer, numbers that also invite us to love and just BE love. The Cancer Full Moon is going to be all about nourishing ourselves and others as well as a wonderful cosmic gift to heal ourselves through our emotions. Cancer represents the female principle of creation, the feminine aspect of us that gives birth, heals and nurtures everything it touches. 

After the intense energies that have been accompanying us since the Solstice, now with this Full Moon in Cancer we have a great time to heal old wounds and balance the two opposite polarities within us – the feminine and the masculine one – by being in touch with both sides and realizing that it is only through the proper harmonization of the different aspects of us that we can reach the inner state of bliss and equilibrium required to give birth to our soul desires as well as to be in perfect resonance with our Highest Will. This is a Moon to listen to our inner voice, let it softly whisper what we need to know at this time, letting it reveals to us the steps we should take for our new path. 

At the end of the month, on January 19, we move from Capricorn energies to the free ones from Aquarius. When the Sun shines its light in Aquarius, a fixed and Air sign, it is a message for us to free ourselves from restrictions that impede us to fully flow with All and start cultivating the aspect of us who assists from a pure place of love and selfless service to others. You can be conscious of the part of you which is an individualized aspect of Source, at the same time that you also become One with Humanity, and help the collective by being your unique expression of the Divine by sharing your own soul gifts and shining your unique frequency wherever you feel guided to share your own Light Presence. 

Assisting does not mean to be a "guide", which is another label that, as humans, we use to define part of what we do and what can only be felt. Assisting means being who we are - becoming our True Selves and sharing from a place of love, compassion and freedom whatever it is that our soul is desiring to express. As always, it is all about BEing not about pretending to be. We all assist each others, no matter what it is our role within Creation, for we are all equals and important beings within the Divine's Plan. 

The New Moon at 8 degrees of Aquarius that we have on January 27, will bring us these energies of freedom, innovation and creativity as well as the opportunity for us to break free from the routine and start creating new life experiences by shifting our frequency and start magnetizing different results in our lives. It is all about holding the proper vibration that will align ourselves with the same frequency of our soul desires and that will trigger the change  we desire to manifest for us not to keep repeating the same old situations that we do not wish to experience again.

Remember, change is the only constant and the more we try to remain in the same old state of being, the more we will be  listening to old echoes from the past that we no longer desire to hear. On the contrary, when we are brave enough to choose differently, to act anew, to reinvent ourselves at every single moment without losing our authenticity and sense of integrity, the more we will be allowing new situations, souls and outcomes to come into our life.

The cosmic message of this Aquarius Moon, is to break free from the version we have created of who we are and that kept us stuck in an old circle and therefore manifesting the same old outcomes that are not aligned anymore with who we have become. The New Moon in the Water Bearer, reminds us of our changing nature, and above all, to embody the Higher and True Essence of who we truly are, which - even if it is in constant motion - always remains One with All. 

Finally, At the end of the month, on January 28, The Warrior Mars, will enter into his fiery ruler, Aries. Mars comes to give us this push of energy we need to arise from the depths of our being as we have been for a while dwelling within our inner realms retrieving more guidance about our new path and beginning to prepare ourselves to make changes in our physical reality and bringing our soul visions into the tangible. 

Mars is the macro aspect of us that represents our energy and personal power. When The Warrior reaches home, we are invited to direct our impulsive and excesses of energy, as the more light we embody the more that we could fall into the old trap of feeling hyper active and instead of focusing our attention, energy and intention into one project, we could tend to be too impulsive and diverge our energy into many different things without end to anyone of them. So our main challenge resides in using our energy wisely, for this is also a lesson to master when we are dwelling within a limited human body and we cannot truly manage our energy, as we can in a soul plane.  

For some time now, we have been abiding in a dimension where neither time nor space existed - just the silence of our true being and its wisdom whispering in our heart. In a plane where we were able to become One again with our Higher Self. Wisdom that is able to envision All as it truly Is. For some time, we have been blessed with the gift to clearly see our New path from a wider and Higher perspective that is not allowed - as we once agreed - in our human dense plane. 

During January, especially at the end of the month, we are reminded to pay full attention again after this loving and soothing season, to our wonderful earthly realm - descending all the miracles we have been moulding in unison with our soul during all this time, into our physical reality, for this is where we truly can enjoy all the creations we are so eager to give birth to. This is where we reside now, not in the ethereal, for as eternal beings we have all the time to dwell in these higher realms, but in the plane we consciously chose to experience at this time within Creation. And as we enter more into the month of January, we will feel the pulse of our inner creations eager to be brought into light. 

I wish you all a blessed 2017 and January filled with many miracles love and joy, Beloveds!

In love and light ∞
