Featured topic: Handling resistance
May is a month in which you can receive deep spiritual nourishment. However resistance is also possible.
Fortunately the simple recognition of resistance allows you to make a choice: between flowing with energy or holding out against it. When the choice to let go is made, creative options seemingly appear to assist you in your choice. Put your anchor into the higher self and let this be your guide as to how to proceed. Your higher self knows the plan. But first you must be able to identify how resistance is working within you.
Resistance is always experienced physically. Resistance sucks energy. Common symptoms are nausea, fatigue, feeling 'off colour,' and unmotivated! Procrastination and returning to your addictions is the order of the day.
Sometimes physical resistance is projected on to the environment: suddenly your electrical equipment starts shorting, or your car gives you electric shocks.
Mental resistance goes hand in glove with the physical struggle. You develop rationalizations such as: I don't have time, I don't think I am able to meditate properly, life wasn't meant to be easy, my yoga gives me all the support I need so I don't need to think of another way. When this self-talk occurs, own the rationalization as a form of resistance.
Spiritual doubt and self-doubt are aspects of resistance and occur especially at times of major expansion. This creates a loss of passion, or a sense of being disconnected from the higher self and a loss of creative balance. Such issues will usually need our direct assistance as they are complex and unique to each individual.
In its positive form, resistance stops you "rushing in where Angels fear to tread." Positive resistance prevents you making decisions that you are not yet ready to accept responsibility for. Therefore when you experience positive resistance, take time out to think carefully about what you might need to do to actively protect yourself from harm in a changing or new environment.
However, resistance is also a habit used by the negative ego to waylay you. When you recognise resistance, don't assume it is in its positive form: check out the fears and wounds behind the resistance and discuss with problem with your higher self. It may be necessary to identify the beliefs associated with the resistance too.

May 2009 Energies Report

By working with the month's energy in your own life you promote your soul's expression in this life (your greatest potential) and also assist the creation of a new world.

The energy of May, which will affect the whole planet not only Australia, will be much slower than the preceding months. May has the ability to empower you at deep, multidimensional levels. It is a month of nourishment and, if you let yourself relax and absorb this May energy it will bring increased moments of safety, security, comfort and joy. For those who rebel against nourishment, you might experience a feeling of stagnation, boredom and a sense that things are slow to change.
Flowing with the energy of May will bring new power, and since power is always initially resisted, you will need to clear your resistance to the positives of May as well as resistance to the negativities. As usual, release your fears and, of course, negative ego responses. Let go of preconceived notions of what these words mean because you will discover new ways to embody nourishment, and find new meaning in them.
Love and light
Fiona and Siramus
