The “Is it True?” Series Episode Ninety-Nine

“Reach for the moon, if you miss, you may land on a star”

The moon goes through phases. It isn’t static, it changes. Although I am on my way to get there, it could be very different once I do. And when I get “there”, then I’ll be going somewhere else. We are energy which needs to be in motion. The moon continually orbits the earth. It’s not going to stop and wait for me to secure my target. But it’s not what I accumulate, it’s what I’m willing to let go of so my journey can be lighter, freer. The purpose is never in the destination or what prize is waiting for me when I arrive. For a long time I wanted to know beforehand what was going to happen. I wanted to avoid all pain. Taking action, particularly the first step, is kinda scary when we don’t how or if it will pan out. Will there be a piece of gold left when I finish sifting through the stones? If I let it, this fear can paralyze me. I can easily find countless reasons to derail and postpone my life under the covers of a bed… reasons that seem logical and safe. But I suspend those thoughts and make some room for possibilities.



The alternative is to let life happen to me. With or without me, my life is going to change. We can’t stop things from changing if we try. I can allow indecision to be my decision. I can relinquish all responsibility and live a life finding someone or something to blame. I don’t want that. I want to follow my heart. It isn’t a clear cut path. It has twists and turns. There are times when no matter how many people I ask for help, all directions lead to lost. I wander around trying to make sense of it all. I look up to the sky and I can’t even see the stars. I wonder if they disappeared or if they never did exist at all. Maybe I made them up in my own head. But the stars are always out; sometimes we just can’t see them. We must have faith that they are there regardless.

More is always revealed and then we know the reason. We see everything with hindsight if we’re lucky. We are given the opportunity to learn. My life has fit together like a puzzle and the sky has been the hardest part. Once the edge is complete, there are very few clues and all the pieces look the same. As I assemble little masses here and there, it gets easier and easier and easier. The picture comes together in a much more rapid pace. Once it is complete, we run our hand over the surface, back and forth we feel a peaceful pride. We did it. It is done. We may look at it for a while as it shines there on the table. Our masterpiece radiates achievement, but you can only gaze at it for so long. While we may frame it and put it on a wall, most often we take it apart so we can put it back together again. The real joy was in the making.

Recently I have become more aware of the moon as it cycles. Not only does the moon constantly reinvent itself, so do I. As it is waxing, I begin to feel heavy and edgy. By the time it’s full, I am weepy or like a pissed off cat. I am irritated or apathetic as a stone. This was brought to my attention by those who choose to deal with me under all conditions. It isn’t as if I’m out there howling at it, but there is some kind of a pattern. I forget about it until I feel weird and then someone else will check the sky. I did hear somewhere that people are affected now more than ever before. However, I will not take this into consideration and own it as a “syndrome.” Many things affect me. It is my choice how much they do. My mind has energy and influence. Mind has much more power than matter ever does.

Things are not always as they seem. Outer space is not a dark night. It is a bright sunny day that has a black sky because there is no air to scatter the light. Stars are too dim to see in space. When we are walking the streets of the city, or sitting in a stadium, the sky looks black and empty. The stars are sparkling just the same. There may be a lot more going on underneath the surface than I am aware of. Maybe I’m a starseed and if I don’t do what I came here to do; I will burst like a gamma ray and turn into a black hole forever. I cannot comfortably settle in and sit idly as my life passes by me. I must remember who I am and why I’m here. Am I willing to expand and to evolve? Or will I choose to shut down and turn off the light already shining? I am in-Lightened. In the light of the moon and the stars, I can see everything. I know who I am. I can see my truth as it glimmers and it dazzles deep within me. I have all that I need. Our nature is divine.
