The Age of Aquarius

[Nicola Mason Halsall]

Yes, a new age dawns, but for me a water sign - leaving the safeness of Pisces seems somewhat daunting! It is hardly a surprise that the birds of the air seem so intent to offer us guidance into this new era. Have any of you air signs out there any vision to what will occur? Jung advocated that we encourage all the elements within us in order to become whole - another daunting task!

[Shirlee Hall]

Nicola, I am an air sign. The 'leaving' from one sign to another is a gradual process over years...
What we need to be focused on is balance. Neutralizing any lingering inner pollution. All of nature is within us. It is up to us to bring the different elements into harmony.

One of the poems that I wrote years ago is called BE. BE is found in my latest book, Be-Embracing the Mystery

BE

What needs to heal is a sense of separation
Suffering ceases with acceptance of Self
To be is to know Self as all life, regardless of form
To understand is to be one with It
To be one is to be
Truth is simple
This is the Key, the Way and the Word~

This little white sparrow has been the talking point of our small community. He has been visiting all our gardens and because he doesn't conform to any flock, and is extremely tame we feel he is a magical omen! What is his message? I wondered if it was to do with the new age that was dawning and was the reason I started this discussion. Also I have been enthralled by Shirlee's series on Atlantis and indeed wonder whether their spirituality and knowledge will be a key to this new era? So please, any thoughts on this fascinating little bird on Islay would be so appreciated!
