Well, this is a good time to join in with some of our
World Family & Celebrate
Navaratri!
Monday, October 8, 2018 NEW MOON.
Well, What's this all about with talking about Navaratri? Well, read up the above article first. It's a little repetitive, but you'll get the idea. If you know a bit about the energies of the Goddess Durga, can give you an appreciation of the idea that the Durga Puja is beginning, albeit on the other side of the globe from where I sit, on the eve of (one more) very upsetting governmental happening in the ol' U.S of A. We pretty much need the energy of this Devi now. Could this be Divine Timing? If Durga is coming through, I'm hopping on that Tiger!
I am not a Hindu. I don't subscribe to any particular organized religion. I am ecumenical, a World Citizen. But 15% of the world's population, apparently is Hindu. https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmXoypizjW3WknFiJnKLwHCnL72vedxjQkDDP1mXWo6uco/wiki/Hinduism_by_country.html And those 15% are most likely, for the next 9 nights, engaged in ceremony to honor and acknowledge the 9 different Avatars of the Goddess Durga.
"Goddess Durga symbolizes the divine forces (positive energy) known as divine shakti (feminine energy/ power) that is used against the negative forces of evil and wickedness." more here: https://indiacurrents.com/what-does-goddess-durga-symbolize/

What I wanted to bring forth with this musing is that- there are Energies all in and around this planet, in multidimensional planes of existence, of Being. We can use our directed focus of thought/consciousness to tap into any Energy Stream that we wish. If you're reading this, you may Know this, the kind of knowing that you feel, but can't find the words to explain. {And if you don't Know it, it's just not-yet your Time. We all have our moments when we're Ready for certain things.} 🎄I am very fond of, for example, joining in, energetically, on the many celebrations, from many different religions and cultural traditions that happen in profusion during the Gregorian calendar month of December. To me, the whole planet feels *Happy*. I don't decorate or have a tree myself, anymore, but there is a Joyous vibe circulating the globe during that time of year. Anyone willing to ride that wave, plug into that vibration, can surf that month straight to a good time.
So, I'm saying- The NEW MOON on October 8th brings, as all New Moon cycles are said to do, an energy of a fresh start. This, coupled with the start of a 9 Night (10 day) festival to honor a Goddess/Energy of clearing out the B.S., which then leads on to 2 Holy Days (Samhain/Halloween, El Dia de Los Muertos) that celebrate the Death of the old and the Rebirth of the new, and another festival to celebrate the Light (Diwali, November 7, 2018 - Diwali, or Deepavali, is the Hindu festival of lights, which is celebrated every autumn in the northern hemisphere. One of the most popular festivals of Hinduism, Diwali symbolises the spiritual "victory of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance". Wikipedia).
And these days of October lead to Thanksgiving in the United States, which leads to all of the celebrations of the Return of the Light in December.

I could go on! I will.... In another post! Lol.
I'm sure you've heard it said that ~ONE Awakened Soul, who is grounded in Divine Truth, Divine Love and Divine Light (in-so-much-as humanly possible in any given moment), is much more powerful than 1000's in the Dark (i.e. aligned with the Darkness).
'Be back soon.

P.S. Here's a Durga mantra playlist I made on the new moon, to get you in the mood! Lol. I was looking for ones that had some nice female voices. (There's so many mantra videos on You Tube! Here's a few that I liked: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxY6Erlulx0EWGAGu5weqd_7DPy5zpD1A )
