M There’s Power in the OONRISE! And so here we are at the Spring Equinox! Apologies for the timing of this month’s magazine. Between illness and technical difficulties, Spirit kind of tied of my hands and made me wait until it was “right”. As much as I wanted to push through, make my deadline and get everything out in time, I had forgotten the most important rule – everything happens in perfect time. in this issue There’s Power in the Moonrise! IFC Staff & Contributors 4 M Soul Cleansing 6 Of course, what they neglect to teach is that perfect time doesn’t happen just because that’s what we want. Truth is, Spirit knew it was time to deliver unto me a lesson which couldn’t be ignored. Messages from Spirit: Stephannie Kelley Are You Really Listening? 9 Moon Phases 10 That’s when it hit me. Effectively stopped in my tracks, I had to sit in the silence and just watch as life continued all around me. It was made painfully clear that my current lesson required remaining outside the realm to observe. You are probably aware there was a tremendous Solar Eclipse on the new moon. It was definitely powerful as it affected technology and communications more than any Mercury retrograde period that I can remember. It was hard to sit on my hands and not just go stir crazy. And, of course, Ego and Anxiety showed up periodically to titter and taunt around the edges. I was being tested in ways that showed I have no more immunity to temptation than anyone else. I am no better and no less than any other person (see, I am human after all!). Only later did it occur to me that this was an intervention of sorts. A lesson in obedience and humility, although it has thankfully been a short one. I’m not going to lie – it was difficult to step back, without emotion (a key theme this month), and examine what was really going on. Fortunately, this spiritually-imposed silence is now over and my “normal” routine has begun to reassert itself. This is the beginning of a new trip down the rabbit hole and as time permits, you’ll be hearing more about this journey.
