The Age of Aqarius (It's Gonna Get Groovy, Right?)

i was thinking the song was a little deceptive and that it's getting off to a rocky start. of course, i was thinking in jest. i am aware that the conditions for instantaneous personality shift to peace and love seems unlikely. at this time, i do believe that goal is attainable, but in these somewhat rocky times, i don't see it.

that's what makes sense according to my new age teachings and what i learned about religion too. things are in play that are not all about ourselves. lots of long plan series of events that must exist, must play out all the way to their conclusion. they may not be within our scope to see or perceive at all. some of these things can take as many as hundreds of years. that's a piece of information i learned on psychic kim russo's lmn show featuring, heck what's his name I'll have to add it later. * charles shaughnessy. he was on, "the nanny" and "the days of our lives." an american comedy and soap opera, that's where I know him from. the other thing being the more biblically familiar, let god handle the hard stuff., let go let god. very similar to the new agers' let go of your baggage, don't take things so seriously or personally. it's not permission to be an ass, but to not try to control everyone and everything, and get out of yours and the universe' way so things meant to happen can happen.

change is happening. some don't want to go with the flow, who want to hold on to stuff that's either long gone or never was. there's a drag created when that occurs, that slows the momentum of change.

we seem to lose sight of what the reality is. we fantasize and reshape it, not even knowing we're doing it and we're reshaping the past to fill holes from memory loss. not saying dementia, just we lose track of details.

there's a lot of strong emotions being disturbed by the change and the discomfort is felt by most of us whether we're into ithe change or not.

it's funny but not laughable that i've been hearing talk of rugs being snatched out from under, ground crumbling under foot. i've been feeling and seeing it, how about you?

it's not humorous unless one is able to find a laugh even when it feels like everything is falling apart, or actually is falling apart. so many systems have been falling apart. belief ones ethics ones, ther're lots of scripts flipping. it's like it's all changing and it's unnerving, i'm not immune myself. i welcome the change.

you know the people who have someone close to them have some horrible loss and then pull the focus off them, the actual person with something to cry about, and make it about themselves? you know. they say they can't believe this happened to them when it didn't. it happened to the person near them. it could be a child parent relationship, and i bring that up that dynamic because i feel like it's one that ends up with damaging narcisitic behavior in just that way a lot. it's just easy pickings for one of them. if it what we all cultivated was kindness and generousity, instead of thinking taking that moment from the wounded party was ok, that would be a nice start.

to divert energy from making it about the me instead of the us? a role reversal like that? that would be a power move.

there's a need that's gone unaddressed for years and it's concern for one another. if you find yourself in need, you, i, whomever, in your time of need don't you want someone to give a shit and help? i do.

when so many of us feel our world is uncertain and the ground beneath our feet unstable, it seems like the time we'd reach out for a lifesaver. for someone to take your hand before it's pulled out of reach and drops below the surface.

there have been times when that has been my experience so i know what it feels like to go through that level of experience and feel like your grasping at all you got was empty air. you survived, get stronger and evolve on.

when something happens other people tend to get involved. there's a ripple effect and this is normal. it's an opportunity, to go a number of ways. choices, we have them and sticking with the parent child scenario, if the mother only cares about being the famous mother of the famous sufferer of some tragedy, then the priorities for mom are bad. all wrong. the opportunity to care for and assist is more in alignment with what the situation calls for. better mom behaves.

those kinds of changes that upend the life at the epicenter also tend to upset people on the periphery. they maybe aren't relatives and would be impacted if it's their coworker who could no longer show up to work. boss has to plug that manpower leak and they may have to pull from staff until the replacement comes in. stress induced redistribution.

i'm just trying to make sense of this aquarian age with its advertised light and darkness right alongside. the emotions so excited in the crush.

what's it all about? what does the move to love and life look like? it looks like roaches running when the lights get turned on. exposure makes them run. what? they might say, we're not trying to infest where you store your food. there's worse those shifty little critters get up to when people are looking the other way. metaphor. It's not food of ours they're after exactly but a real desire to sneakily grass control over everything. to confine we who aren't paying attention.

wars and civil unrest and poverty all driven by forces and groups and people whose indentities and intentions are hidden but being illuminated more and more each day. that is what i mean by the "roaches" and what they do.

what I'm getting at I guess, is the fact that yes, eventually we will reach that part of the aquarium age that is love and light and beauty and everyone gets along and appreciates each other and love and care rule. we are just working our way through the opposite of all of that kind of. getting to a place where we see the light. i feel like that's the thing to be focusing on largely.

the fact that we get to go through all of these troubles and permutations, but that's the fun part, because we get to go through it all and experience everything even the losses. with perspective, those are the fun parts. the bosses of people, even all of those we get an impression of, they make us feel certain ways and feelings make us act certain ways. i guess i just feel like the way we're acting needs to turn to the nicer peace and love groovy aquarian age that was advertised. in that very catchy but somewhat deceptive song by the fifth dimension, the age of aquarius.
