Here we are, well into the beginning of 2025!
I drew this mandala as a symbolic tool for questioning, intuiting, discerning, and navigation throughout this wild ride of a year.
2025 is a 9 year, in a cycle of 10. [ 2+0+2+5=9 ] Nine years are about endings, breakdown, dissolvement of old structures and as in alchemy, putrification. Despite the sharp contrasts, jarring changes and deep challenges during these turbulent times, in the current climate of chaos, cynicism and blame, we can make choices to support higher frequencies that are emerging to shape the new structures being formed as we consciously release old ones.
We know that the individual and collective are one, that each choice we make, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, sets us in a new direction, on a new course, which affects the whole. Deep introspection and sensing with expanded awareness, to access broader perspectives from within, based upon love, equanimity, compassion, and non-judgment are essential this year.
The center of the mandala represents our newly evolving multi dimensionality, where we begin to experience deeper and richer inner sensing, where possibilities are ripe for unfolding as we experience through love, discernment and increasing clarity. This can be seen as our core, our place of centering, our awareness of Source and renewal. Sensing with our hearts takes us there, a place of higher mind and heart, alchemy and potentials, joy and magic. Notice that portals are opening, light is streaming in, illuminating our abilities to release any remnants of victimhood, ancestral or otherwise, if we choose to step more fully into our sovereignty. We remember that we are alchemists, magicians and co-creators. What do you sense, as you view this?
The swirling, pulsating, contrasting shapes and colors, intensity and rapid movement in the majority of the mandala represent the high energies that are occurring during this year, as old patterns crumble and glimpses of the new begin to emerge. Symbols for the elements of nature here are prominent. The elements, air, earth, fire and water are supercharged this year, especially air and fire. Contemplate how we can partner with them. Our planet demands our attention, respect and collaboration!
The five lines emanating from the center represent breakdown and accelerated change. This will be a year of unexpected innovations, abrupt shifts and surprising endings to what we have considered is constant, solid, and unchangeable. Undulating lines of purple [deep spirituality and guidance] and lavender [compassion] weave throughout the mandala, representing the power of love coursing through our hearts, creating new avenues of unity and connection.
Observe symbols that represent the shadow to you. As we individually and collectively continue to explore more deeply into the shadow, we will further sense what to release that is not beneficial and to be more conscious of what has held us back.
Notice the brightly colored, expansive symbols. If we can use optimism as a radical tool to subvert collapse into negativity when we are despondent about or frustrated with current situations, our ability to bring about higher good and healing will be powerful in ways that previously couldn't be imagined. We remember that love unites and fear divides.
Surrounding the mandala are lines of higher frequencies that are raising our vibrations to increase our awareness of our true natures as soul- based beings, in service to shifting the frequencies of our planet. They urge us to ask:
* What is true, is no longer true, despite what things look like on the surface?
*Can we find trust within our hearts and listen to where our souls guide us? Are we courageous enough to do the work to create better outcomes, while in the fog of unknowing, suffering and grieving for our planet?
*Can we hold dichotomies and divergent extremes simultaneously, with open hearts?
*What empowers each of us or diminishes our power? What can we do to become more empowered and to empower others?
Please let me know about your insights or if you have any questions.
Onwards and much love,
Carol
