In a recent study our community were diving into the water element that is alive during this prime Yin time of the year in the middle of winter.

The stagnating quality of fear arose and the deep and often unconscious part it plays in our daily life.

This ‘ fear’ comes in many guises…as anger, timidity, aggression, self doubt and isolation. All this leading to the great delusion that we are separate beings leading to other false conclusions based around division.
How does this force that disempowers our true nature come to be disarmed?

For me, it is to firstly release the principles of control. Control or ‘thinking we can control’ is the precursor of fear based emotions. Experience will sometime surely reveal to us we don’t control a lot of life circumstances.

We really only have two choices. It is here where we unconsciously choose to take the path of fear ( of the unknown) or choose to embrace the mystery as it unfolds…with trust and a divine will being our anchor into a contented life.

Likewise we only have two hands. We have the choice to allow these be the hands that strike, clench , grasp and force…or the hands that embrace, receive, release and love.

The hands really have the capacity to do both,

They cannot ,however, do both at the same time. In each moment we can only do one…to strike with our fist or simply allow our caring touch. By doing one we forget the other. By being gentle we forget to fear. By being love we have realised our true nature.

Enjoy your fearless day..
