Mercury Retrograde Notes: We Ain't Out of The Woods Yet

Namaste, Y'all, 

We are now officially out of Mercury Retrograde but not quite out of the woods. When a planet is in transit mode (in this case going retro back to direct), it causes the energies on our planet to activate our hidden triggers and unhealed wounds (roughly a couple of weeks or more). These triggers will test our endurance if we've indeed learned critical life lessons and the way we respond under pressure. I'm reminded of the saying, It's always darkest before dawn. So please take this message as a heads up to be a little extra patient and exercise compassion (for yourself and those around you). We are all feeling these shifting energetic tides more than usual from the cosmos, so stay humble and aware of this heightened activity factor. 
Also keep in mind that all of us learn at different rates and on various levels (the planet Mercury is a constant reminder of this). Life is the most complex of classrooms serving humanity at once, so remind yourself of this when you find yourself being short tempered or losing hope. Choose being as calm and clear as possible, and one of the best ways to do this is to create it in your living space and use mantras (sacred words, sounds, or phrases) to stay centered and command of yourself, not others. Some of you may find unplugging from the media for a couple of days helpful, getting out in nature, bringing it inside through fresh flowers, or diving into a forgotten creative project. Hint: Einstein said that “creativity is intelligence having fun." Tap in! 
Please, children, do  what you can and leave the rest to divine providence to handle. Remove yourself from drama and trauma-fueled individuals because this is their time to thrive in the chaotic-muck that occurs during key planetary transits. They seek the vulnerable to emotionally manipulate and create lasting trauma bonds. Like I noted earlier, the energies are heightened and will cause us to experience our hidden triggers and unhealed wounds (dark forces crave the walking wounded). So adopt healing rituals that fit your life (salt baths, dance, food prep, exercise, and such) to help bring you back to center and maintain balance. Self healing is empowerment. Self preservation and protection.
And lastly, and most importantly, set healthy boundaries and keep them firm. Don't let your defenses down to offer pity for someone who has a history of refusing to change or disrespecting your wellbeing. Use discernment and trust your intuition to guide your steps toward peaceful existence, and it will. When you encounter someone or a situation that feels off, trust it because it is. I can't tell you how many times I've done this and found out afterward my gut instinct was correct. Furthermore, I can attest to the times when I ignored it and ended up suffering the consequences, so you know. 
Love, light, and happy healing,
Terry Perkins

Take Time, Change Doesn't Have To Be Painful

Namaste, y'all, Transformation and healing are tough acts to move through, but when successfully completed, they are well worth it, for the results far exceed the struggles you must endure to get to the other side. However, few people will do the arduous work to get there. I know in my life, there were many times  I surrendered to my ego and dropped the healing process. Instead I chose  to numb my pain with drugs, booze, sex, and investing in anything that took the focus off me taking responsibility for my growth. Of course this is delusional behavior because reality would swing back around with the same issue demanding my attention. That's why I do believe the adage that the things we refuse to heal will continue to reveal themselves. How many of us will remain stuck on stupid instead of facing the truth of our ignorant perception of life? And why do we beat ourselves up after we've conquered a difficult situation? I think it's the realization about our need to be righ...

Healing People Pleasing Addiction

Namaste, Y'all, I had an epiphany during my meditation the other day regarding a behavior that I no longer engage in—playing Rescue Roger. For most of my life, I've been addicted to people-pleasing (on steroids). Also, I want to emphasize that I no longer engage in this behavior, which makes that aha moment all the more impactful. Sometimes spirit will sit you down and show you things that you've overlooked that are gifts of achievement, and this is a major one for me. It began in my childhood, where I was forced into an environment where I sought the attention and approval of toxic adults. You were never good enough, white enough, rich enough, or Christlike enough for them, nor were they to each other. It was a cesspool of fear-based, ego-power-hungry souls, riddled in guilt and shame for simply existing. Expressing joy or any ounce of happiness was not well received because you were thought of as fake. Only suffering and celebrating life inside the confines of church and ...

Life's Faling Apart To Fall Into Place

Namaste, Y'all, Has life taken you on multiple shifts and changes through  uncharted territory lately? Have you been experiencing the subtle degrees of moving your attention to areas that may have been previously blocked or unavailable? Welcome to the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, where up is now going down, and narrow is steadily widening to degrees of infinite possibilities. Yes, folks, life is certainly over as we've grown accustomed to it. Many certainties and securities have been stripped away due to the powers that be, causing us to rethink our survival as a species. Our comforts are no longer available as before, and our outlook on the future is obscured by the ever-lurking present, which is not saying much. I bet you didn't see this coming down the pike. Many of us seers (both ancient and present) certainly did, and it's still jarring and a bit disconcerting. We harped on this for the past 5 years, and so, here we are. Some of you listened, while others chose ...
