Intense energies are in the ethers these days, and can generate real havoc in our emotional lives.
Harsh words may be spoken, along with so-called “truths” about how people feel.
To navigate these times gracefully, please don’t hold yourself or others to words spoken in the moment. Hold open the possibility that the speaking of the words is surprising to the speaker, and hearing their own words may provoke change.
Consider these conversations and actions as part of a process, and not necessarily as the defining gesture.
Release any mind pictures of the other as entrenched, angry, hurtful, and so on, and instead create a blank slate in your mind for positive possibility. Be gentle on yourself and on the other, and let an undercurrent of love move between you, regardless of the words or actions.
