At this time of year it is good to be aware of the many changes around us and to go with them rather than to fight them. We cannot fight what is natural and to try to prevent the changes from occurring would be like trying to stop the sun from shining or the rain from falling. There is much in nature to change and each year these changes occur with no trouble at all - there is no difficulty in this time of transit, for all in nature is in tune with the harmonies and energies involved as each season comes around once more. In this way we are the same - we too are seasonal and during a lifetime on the physical plane will meet and undergo many changes as our nature dictates. If we go with the changes and embrace them in their varying degrees and adjust to them as we go along, then these changes - like those in nature - will flow and be harmonious. If, however, we choose to fight against them or try to ignore or reject them, it is then that changes seem problematic or troublesome. Although some of the changes may not initially appear to our liking it is imperative that we follow their pathway and calling - for having done so and having settled into the new pattern of existence and being we will then be able to find the positive within the change and the reason behind it. Change is a necessary part of existence whatever plane of existence we are on, for it allows continuity of being and allows the energies to flow that propel us a long and provide us with our vitality, our sense of well-being, our spirit of adventure and our hope. Without change we would become stuck in a rut, we would find that our energies would become sluggish and eventually stagnate and that our pathways seem to become harder to walk upon. Within the changes lie new challenges and the way forward; the changes are like a beacon to show us the way. Just as a tree will shed its leaves in the changes that Autumn brings, so we too should embrace a new state of being, knowing that it will lead ultimately to the next part of our cycle. The cycle of being spirals up and beyond, carrying us to new levels of understanding and new ways of seeing and perceiving. The changes that bring us along the next phase of our journey allow us to embrace the natural within and around us until we find that our changes are as seasonal as those in nature. They are a part of us and a part of who we have been, who we are now and who we will become. They provide the balance that we need and allow us room to grow. There is no battle to be fought or won for the changes are there as our allies, however strange they may seem. Within the greatest changes and the more difficult changes comes the greater growth. Walk boldly towards and through the natural seasons of your journey, for all in nature is harmony - allow it to embrace you.

'Til we meet again...
