The one thing in life which is certain is change. Nature is constantly changing reminding us that without such shifts, there is no evolution and creativity stagnates. Yet, despite such obvious benefits, many of us will resist change, often waiting until it is forced upon us through illness, loss of a job or death of a loved one. At such times, our outward determination seems to abandon us and we are urged within to seek the help of three feminine aspects of the Self; intuition, nurturing and release. It is through wisdom and intuition that we find hope in the midst of darkness. It through nurturing and love that we have the courage to embody our dreams and it is through compassionate detachment that we release our hold on the past to make way for the new. Eventually, we learn to accept the larger picture, reducing the stress and struggle which often accompanies change and accepting the gems of wisdom which are present in every situation.
