Middle World – Present
This is the here and now, the present. We cannot relive yesterday; we cannot take back the words and deeds of yesterday whether they were good or bad. We may plan and hope for tomorrow, but until it arrives and the decisions we make today have to have lived and breathed, we cannot give them substance. These things we call reality because we live and endure them today.
If we are not fully connected with the Middle World, the here and now, we feel dislocated and out of place, out of time. Not only are we feeling out of place in the physical world, but we have lost connection with our past lives and our ancestors and we struggle and that struggle is draining and.
We may want to journey to other worlds, the upper world of beneficial spirits and White Shaman. But we may be attracted to the lower world or even the underworld of malevolent spirits and Black Shaman. One will help us; one will drag us further down into our sense of not belonging.
Draw close to the Upper World and bring back the benefits of healing, wisdom and love and brightness.
Even the lower and under worlds can teach you about yourself and what the essence of these worlds can do to us. But it is up to you to journey and experience and stand back from what is happening and understand and take positivity from negativity. Be careful.
There is a balance to be found and lived here on this physical plain. A balance to be achieved and lived. This is your test this week.
Flute – Expression
The Shamanic flute is freedom. It is not played using a musical score, a set of rules to follow. You are not playing your flute in combination with others. You are not part of an orchestra, unless, of course, you choose to be so.
You have your own tune, your own music to play, but you have been finding that hard to play recently. Perhaps you are trying to follow a music score, but the score calls for you to do something different from what your soul desires, expects and wants… needs to play.
Now is time to switch off from your busy, logical mind that wants to control and manipulate. Get back to what your soul wishes, what speaks to you.
The pandemic has been difficult for all of us. It may have upended your world and given you the chance to learn to play your flute. Instead of being stifled, you can fully express yourself now. Your passion, for your passions, emerges now. Flute urges you to play it and be free of the constraints that have blocked your life and you from your life until now.
