Orion Wisdom

  Client: …and in the end, my anxiety is just over the top, and especially about things I can’t really effect and I need some help with this.  I feel everything so strongly and get overwhelmed so easily.   Orion:   The message is that we persevere .   Through the difficult times, the challenging times, the upending times, one perseveres. The main thing about one’s personal difficult times is that they are occurring in the midst cultural changes and challenges.   And although we may want to keep the culture at bay and feel we can be in our own space, we actually can only do that to a degree; especially if you have already come to recognition of the inter-connection of all things, of Unity.   And an aspect of Unity that often is put to the side, is that we cannot only focus on the Unity that reflects the beauty and wonder of interconnectedness, we must also acknowledge that we may also feel, be impacted and effected by the challenging aspects. Y...

  Fall is often thought of  as a waning time, the beginning of pulling within. But other energies are held within the changing landscapes as well.  Fall is a time of honoring.  We celebrate the idea that there can be other realms of being and connection with them, as in Halloween or All Hallows Eve; 'hallow' meaning  'holy' and' 'sacred'. We remember those who are departed from us with the Day of the Dead or All Souls day.  We celebrate our loved ones lives as they were with us and hold their essence in our hearts.  We embrace the idea of gathering together for meals, celebrating friendship; appreciating the large and small bounties in our life.  We can be moved by the swathes of color that appear, emerging only in certain times and places, and inviting us to feel the specialness of Nature's dance.   And in the midst of  the challenges and discord, we can take our own moments to seek and hold the quality of harmony.  We can find o...

   From Elisabeth   Let me begin with an update on Mimi .  Three and half weeks in we have good  news! In the last few days, Mimi has made wonderful milestones.   She is fully conscious, can breathe on her own and speak softly.   Yesterday she ate some solid food – applesauce and eggs – and was able to sit in a recliner for awhile.   She is still in a step-down ICU unit and various devices and monitors – including her tracheotomy, medication port and feeding-tube will not be removed for a bit longer.   The next step will be a re-habilitation hospital with Traumatic Brain Injury specialty. I want to thank all of you who so graciously contributed to Mimi’s Go Fund Me page. As I said in my last post, I don’t manage the GFM page, but donors are visible at the page.   I sent my personal thanks to all of you I recognized. A couple people who donated anonymously let me know they did so. And if you contributed in this way, please accept ...

  My Dear Orion Circle , My summer ‘vacation’ is not quite that.     On July 17th ,  I had a total right knee replacement. Surgery went smoothly and I’m recuperating well with steady improvement through PT, although energy does fade.     Less than a week after surgery, I learned that my DearHeart step-daughter, Mimi Fitzhugh , was involved in a horrific car accident; her beloved MiniCooper hit by an uninsured drunk driver in a pick-up truck.   He is currently in jail. All our family energy has moved toward Mimi and her recovery.   As of now, although stable, she is still unconscious. She shows some responsiveness. She had 14 broken ribs, with both lungs collapsed, a skull fracture with a brain bleed that has not spread, fracture to C4, but fortunately not the spinal cord, fracture to the occipital eye bone but the eye is intact.  And yet, her brave soul and courageous heart keeps her with us and working to return to herself. Pleas...

It can be very supportive to really remember yourselves as part of the grand collective.  Some people find it disconcerting, at times, to be part of the grand collective.  At other times, when you are feeling in isolation or you are feeling overwhelmed or you don’t know how to muddle through a problem or a challenge, just keep tucked somewhere in your awareness that not only are you really not all alone in it, actually without your conscious awareness recognizing it, aspects of you are probably in communication.  They are already reaching out, trying to as they say, receive or bring in an answer, an insight, an idea.  You are already open to recognizing support.  So often we do see this flow of communication in that kind of thing we call coincidence of synchronicity.  ‘I was just thinking of you and the phone rang.’  ‘I didn’t know where to turn with this problem and suddenly I remembered something I was told a long time ago.’  And so on and so ...

  December is seen   as a season of Celebration. Celebrating hope. Celebrating emerging through a dark time. Celebrating Light We celebrate the ending of the year and welcome with celebration the beginning of the next. Light is a word that holds the energy of awareness; of seeing clearly; of seeing more. Light can represent the ineffable – the energy of Life that flows through us and connects us with all things.  Light is the flow of Unity. Unity ~ the interconnection of all things – calls us to see further. Unity calls us to carry empathy, to share hearts; even, perhaps especially , in times that are challenging and confusing.  But we also want to remind you to extend Unity consciousness to yourselves . Be kind and caring of your own ups and downs, your own foibles and confusions. Be gentle and remind your inner judges to hold you in compassion. When striving and ‘improving’ seems to not gain what your ideas desire, consider that there may be another way. ...

Elections! Important. Stressful. Worrisome. Overwhelming.  We feel an important thing is in  our hands and yet, we know our single vote may not effect the change we want. That fear of powerlessness can then lead to depressed feelings and even inaction. Instead of focusing on the desired outcome, perhaps we can consider the energetic  within the action itself; that the very doing , the ‘casting’ of the vote, has its own power and meaning in ways not clearly seen.  And ‘power’,   as in to create, to make,  reminds us that actions can move, can carry energy after the event; further than the event. Can set an environment for a next event. Can enhance a challenging event. When we vote, we are moving our principles into action.  And within the sphere of our circle of Orion friends, we see those principles anchored firstly in the core recognition of the Interconnectedness of All Things – Unity - the core principle of our sharing. From there spec...
