“No Boundaries” by Alison Brush www.brushartventures.com
If only we could see with our physical eyes that the very fabric of time has shifted. In my opinion, from an astronomical perspective, this is what happened on Winter Solstice 2010. Please check out this link for what occurred on that day: http://www.lunarplanner.com/Snippets/10.12.21-LunarEclipse We have already arrived at the place in galactic alignments that the Mayans say are coming in December 2012. We have crossed over, been pulled through to a whole new Field. We are in a new TEMPORAL TERRAIN. Time as we once experienced it, no longer exists….or has shifted, is no longer as rigid…more flow….we have been birthing this shift, preparing, co-creating this Field for decades. And now, chances are you are reeling and dealing with this shift in your own way, working on regaining some kind of balance to adjust to this new way of Being, of living.
As we head into the time of Equinox~one of the two times each year that Earth achieves a planetary balance of light~it seems a good time to write about finding balance on this wild Earthian ride during the current chaotic currents of change.

Friends of mine were discussing the Libran scales of justice the other day as one analogy for righting what’s gone wrong in the world…in essence finding balance by counteracting forces. Somehow this model of light/dark, good/evil as way to bring about healing what’s wrong at this time did not sit right with me. The astrological signs that express polarity (Pisces/two fishes, Gemini/the twins, Libra/two scales of justice) teach us how to bridge seeming opposites into a higher harmonic way of Being. But after this time shift, it feels too two-dimensional….flat, old, no longer relevant. We have advanced too far along into this ever- expanding multi dimensional reality. Surely we are halfway into the fourth dimension, if not beyond, given all our hard hard work over the past four decades. That’s what I sense.
What feels more appropriate at this juncture in the time of no-time is to consider the metaphor of GYROSCOPE as a way to deal with the accelerated pace of this Shift, this new Field. A gyroscope is a wheel or disk mounted so it can spin rapidly about on an axis that is itself free to alter in any direction. This design assures a gyroscope can provide stability or maintain a reference direction in navigation systems~~~Contemplate the equipoise of gyroscope~~~Consider yourself as gyroscope seeking equipoise. Consider this as the way to achieve balance in each and every moment, present to the gift unfolding as you go through your day.
If only we could see with our visible eyes that the very fabric of time has shifted. Most of us probably can’t see such shifts with our physical eyes. Maybe someone like Stephen Hawking could. Each of us has a gift, and I have a friend who has this ability: her name is dl Bupp, an innovative instigator helping humans shift their past/future matrices to be able to live more in the present moment. She is also a teamaker of teas that shift consciousness called Dragonlady Teas http://www.etsy.com/shop/DragonLadyTeas…(I love supporting my gifted enlightened friends).
Here’s an excerpt http://www.facebook.com/notes.php?id=817289338) of what she recently experienced on the shifts in time:
“the very fabric of our existence is moving in a different direction.
actually, to me it feels like its moving in many different directions.
time and our relationship to it is changing.
that is how i see it.
time is moving differently.
it seems to be going backwards and forwards…and sideways.
we are moving forward in a direction that is outside
the boundaries of time.”
Whether you read the above as poetry or indecipherable quantum reality, it is something to ponder. We go through our days as if everything is the same, yet, yet….the very structure of our reality is shifting, and we are co-creators as well as being along for the cosmic ride. Maybe we can’t see all this with our physical eyes, yet many of us KNOW from somewhere inside everything has shifted, there is the new emerging reality. The way we SEE this visibly unfolding is in witnessing with greater frequency the intensity of our personal and global events of trauma, revolution and awakening.
Take a moment and think about how the events of the previous half decade might have shifted the speed of your travel through your days, and where you are now choosing to put your TIME instead of where you used to spend your time. Yes, we spend time as we spend money. Do you feel you have been forced to become more flexible and fluid just to navigate the currents of your day? Do you now spend more time cooking healthier foods with family and friends, and value having a garden as much as a 401K? Have you reevaluated what is truly life sustaining and essential and now value that as the real currency?

As we are all trying to make sense of this unfolding earthquake/tsunami/nuclear disaster in Japan, I hear many theories. Through what lens do we view these kinds of meta events: the lens of apocalyptic fear, the lens of God punishing humans, the lens of Earth punishing humans, the lens of randomness/accidents, the lens of technological manipulations by the five white guys running the world….I’ve heard it all. I too am sorting through my own belief systems and internal intuitions about what is happening. Perhaps the truest thing I sense is the Earth herself is finding her GYROSCOPIC EQUIPOISE (def:balancing force) amidst the greater galactic shifts happening at a much bigger level than we are capable of currently observing/honoring/understanding. So much of what is unfolding is beyond anything we have ever conceived. WE ARE IN A WHOLE NEW TEMPORAL TERRAIN. Terrain isn’t just a concept for space, there is a TERRAIN OF TIME..and we have landed in a new frontier. Everyone of us is an explorer. Isn’t that exciting? No more spectator sports, time to engage.
“Jumping Through” by Alison Brush
This world of which we are part holds such beauty, almost unbearable at times, and it seems to me our most important job as humans is the preservation of that Beauty till the end of time. And time to enjoy that beauty. When we are confronted, as we are now, with destruction at a catastrophic level due to our ineptitude at handling our own inventions (nuclear reactors), it is a moment to pause, to re-balance ourselves, the world, our choices, our future. It is time to redesign our entire modus operandi…and realign our efforts toward a world of clean sustainable energy/technologies/ways of Being. In this new Field of present moment attunement/alignment, this is the real livelihood. All our efforts, our busyness/business should be headed in that direction:
Preservation of the Beauty of the Earth.
“Changing Tides” by Alison Brush
During this blessed Springtime of returning light, a moment of equipoise, experiment with moving more from your core in joyful gyroscopic ways. Try the ancient swirling arts of Japanese Aikido or Afro-Brazilian Capoeira, or venture into more modern techniques like Gyrotonics. Or just roll around on the floor with your children or pets… or pull over and roadside dance like me……this emerging Field WHICH WE ARE CREATING is about regaining the balance of joy and flow in our lives. Engaging the body in flowing movements seems key in assisting us to become strong enough to move through these shifts with grace. And imagine this: if the Make a Wish Foundation came to you gifting you your joy, what would it be? You might surprise yourself. I realized I would request a piano lesson from Sir Elton John teaching me how to play one of his more raucous compositions Whitewash County, who knew? Dream large.
If I may, I will end this post with a section from one of my poems written many years ago called Watching the Weather. There are lines in this poem that I did not want to write. Yet poems, even sometimes my own, give me insight into what I feel I sense is of the truest essence, the underlying truth of things.
Excerpts from Watching the Weather:
Bring on the Weather!
Make us stop
and take a long time getting to places
and really love the journey.
Howl our ears open
and if you can’t with beauty…
then heave ho! Bring on the disasters
which will widen our eyes.
And if you can’t unite us
with Beauty
because we’ve been made
so small by life,
then insist we remember.
And do it with rain, with water, with wind in every form,
with rainbows
and hurricanes, earthquakes and
bring on the volcanoes!
And if we can’t learn by beauty,
then wake us up with the weather,
till all the people get the message
and begin to watch You first again.
And wake us up to Your Beauty
any way you can
Joyful Transformation to You!

Thank you.

Hi Lyn,
I can attest to your gyroscope idea. Astrology will only evolve when its practitioners become more gyroscopic in our bodyminds, and thus in our work.
I resonate strongly with the gyroscope as an imaginal symbol for the process of human consciousness leaping….now. For me it is more than a static, conceptual image; it is that which I aspire to speak to clients and students AS. Gyroscopic consciousness rests on the absolute stillness of perpetual movement of awareness.
There were several more points I connected with in your post as well, but I’ll complete here by commenting on your: “No more spectator sports, time to engage” by saying that WHAT we are engaging in, WHY we’re doing so, and WHEN we’ll know how it will come out in the end are all in fact beyond our comprehension. Will we as a species let those trivial questions stop of us from embracing our inner gyroscopic selves?

As I read your poem….it gave me goose bumps all over my anxious restless body. Thanks for sharing.

Such simple beauty conveyed in words and paintings-love the art by Alison.
Why is it that most people refer to our planet as feminine? Balance with a capital (as opposed to yin yang balance) refers to Balance of feminine and masculine energies which is the Planetary Spirit.
Thanks for your blog. I’d like to email you re a possible consultation but could not get your email address.
