We've talked about the spiral path a lot in these posts to help explain how even though it may seem we are repeating issues and patterns over again, we are not going round in circles. Rather, we are always going higher, gaining new insights and awareness, and travelling deeper, seeing clearer into more aspects of our hidden selves.

Until recently, this has felt much like a never- ending excavation process with us wondering, when will it end? Well, we have finally broken through into a new space as a collective, allowing us a very new experience with our spiral path.

We have become experts at going 'deeper', yet the 'going higher' part seemed to have a cap on it. It was as if we could only see or receive so much, but no more. Or it was easy to feel connected for minutes or hours, but not days or weeks. We discovered and remembered many of energy's natural laws - that we are the creators of our reality, that if you can imagine it, it is possible - but it has been a challenge to remain vigilant over subconscious thoughts and beliefs that have ruled the roost for so long, constantly wanting control over our steering wheel.

2015 has brought with it a massive shift. We have received an upgrade unlike any other so far. We have emerged into a higher level of 'the field' than we have had access to before on this grand a scale when it comes to number of people residing in it.

What happens when Mercury prepares to go retrograde in a day's time? Well, I just received 20 blank emails for one thing, and didn't receive a whole bunch of other emails that have been sent to me! Mercury loves a bit of computer/technology shenanigans. When you put him in Aquarius, which a) governs technology and b) is ruled by Uranus the planet who loves all things unpredictable, don't be surprised if things like this are happening!

If you are expecting an email or text and you don't receive it - follow up with the person. Likewise if you send something important and don't hear back, follow up.

On the upside, Mercury retrograde periods are fantastic for going back over things that have been left unfinished - contracts, communications, conversations and projects. They open doorways for things that need re-doing and re-viewing. Something or someone from the past can come up for the purpose of finishing unfinished business or re-connecting in a new way.

Mercury Retrograde gets a bad rap but as much as he can be a bit of a trickster with communications, ultimately his job is to ensure that everything is as clear as possible. He says: re-negotiate that contract, re-do that piece of writing, renew that connection, re-visit that project, re-visit that conversation.

Has Mercury Retro paid you a visit yet?

RIP #Charliehebdo cartoonists. In times of great social and political tension cartoonists help us to see the lighter side of every side. On Wednesday in Paris 12 light-creators returned to the light. They are being honoured by tens of thousands of people in the streets across France and Europe who are holding up, and laying down, pens and pencils in tribute, symbolising their right - all our rights - to freedom of speech and creative expression.

What a statement the people have made with their response, along with the millions of posts on social media. Where we could have seen anger and fear we are seeing unity and solidarity. Where we could have seen outbreaks of violence we are seeing witty, brilliant creativity, peace, strength and connection. It is easy to look at those who attacked and lose hope in humanity - but the greater truth can be found by looking at how millions are responding. The heart of humanity is awake. #jesuischarlie
 

The energy of 2015 feels like we are being shot like rockets into completely new territory, moving further in just a few days than it feels we have moved in the past two years!

Where delays and procrastination have seemed the name of the game for all too long, the last few days of 2014 had a strong 'hurry up and clean house' energy on every level. I found myself re-organising rooms, putting things in storage, and cleaning like crazy! Others have reported feeling the need to shed and let go of old habits, old attachments and other manifestations of old energy once and for all in those last days. Now, on one hand this is normal for the lead up to NYE. What felt different however was the push behind the releasing, and that was this massively increased READINESS for the new. Actually, readiness aside, it is more like a timer went off and after some years of feeling a kind of in limbo energy we were all told that it was finally GREEN GO TIME!

An interesting question was asked on my youtube channel about whether money will exist 'in the fifth dimension'. The fifth dimension, as I know it, and perhaps as you see it also, is not another place, it is another frequency in this same space. It is a frequency that any one of us can, and do, tap into anytime.

When you 'manifest' something just as you need it - without going out to buy it - you could say that you are manifesting from that higher space of consciousness. That is, someone gives you their spare couch that they no longer need just as you really needed a new one.

Now, manifesting a couch is a long way from money no longer existing or no longer be required, but I do think there will come a day when money as we know it won't exist. I don't know how soon or far away that day is for the collective, but definitely I am seeing more people having a different experience around money.
