The Resurrection

"Be thou comforted, little dog, Thou too in Resurrection shall have a little golden tail."   ~ Martin Luther
It's not Easter, so why am I talking about the resurrection? Because that is what happens to us over and over again, but we don't notice it. We are reborn as we change a situation in our lives but because we are asleep to our true nature we don't recognise the transformational change that is happening as we move from one thing to another.

Rebirth and renewal are the perpetual states of nature, they are constant in their state of change. We are also in our own perpetual state of change, but just like nature that are certain points in the seasons of our life that are more significant than others.

What often happens is that we see these changes as negative and we struggle and fight our way through them; we could see them as an opportunity for transformation, a resurrection.

What is it that you currently see as unobtainable or unavailable that, just like the little dog's tail, you could experience differently if you were resurrected? This metaphor for life doesn't have to be a physical death and rebirth, but the metaphysical death and rebirth of old, outmoded belief systems into an empowered vision for your life.

I am currently journeying through this transformational phase of life and it is really inviting me to consider how I create my own fences and boundaries that prevent my greater growth. I also recognise that change and transformation is happening even when I'm not consciously engaged in it and when I'm even recoiling and rejecting it on a conscious level. However no matter how extensive my resistance, change happens. In meditation I experience the greater truth and my dreams bring me wonderful stories of Phoenix and Resurrection so I know that transformation is at work in my life, just as it is in yours.

I invite you to consider your own transformational journey and seek the places you can embrace your own resurrection instead of railing against it.

Affirmation
In the infinite now of my life I recognise that I am reborn in consciousness time and again. I release all resistance and embrace the radical resurrection as well as the tiny transformation. I trust the process of life to only bring me the things I can handle and I use the tools in my tool box to process the change as it happens. I am free and flowing in the river of life. All is well.

In love
