D id you know that you are fearless, generous beyond thought, gracious, creative, able to shapeshi your des- tiny? You are! So what is keeping you from celebrating yourself, from living the bountiful life you deserve and can create? In looking at the events of the past several years, I found a thread, a luminous thread that led me through the maze of chal- lenges we face today. How did the events of our time form into the chaos of the world today as well as the turmoil in our own personal lives? As you hold up your star shield to the Great Spir- it, you see that there is a dangerous imbalance of the male and female energies on this earth. We must balance the intellect and mind of the male with the intuition and emotion of the female in order to understand how we came here from nature and what we are made of. If not, then maybe we are lost. Maybe our evolve- ment as a species will actually cease. In looking at all this, it came down to the one lesson that the Sisterhood of the Shields taught me over and over: how to give up resistance and pick up the shield of empowerment. e events of this past year, in particular, demonstrated the turmoil of uncertainty. We have always lived with a sense of in- security, and until lately, most of us have spent our energy trying to ignore it or pretend it doesn't bother us. So how do we, as sha- mans, learn to make uncertainty our ally? How do we let go of our resistance to change, our fear of what is diff erent? If I could teach you only one thing, I would choose for you to learn how to ride uncertainty like a wave. If you can learn to ride within the power of the wave, to allow its energy to pro- pel you forward, you can tap into a source of personal power. Learning to use energy in a focused, conscious way will reduce the sense or experience of chaotic energy for yourself and others around you. Chaos is a part of creation, and we want to shi how we respond to it by directing our awareness on the beauty and a Shapeshifting into Bountiful Tapping into your Personal Power Li fe By Lynn Andrews "If I could teach you only one thing, I would choose for you to learn how to ride uncertainty like a wave."
