5 Deer (Hand, Grasp)

Day 5 of each timewave is the day where the power is stepped up and your intention for the timewave is transmitted, whereas the previous day, Day 4, is a foundation day, where an intention, plan or idea is formed (or is forming) as a set of components. Day 5 is when you then bring all of the elements together, simultaneously emanating that energy and consciousness.

Deer (also known as Hand or Grasp) also has great power through its capacity to operate in all dimensions in all manner of ways. But Deer has to learn not to try to do too much, not to hold too much, nor to utilize too many techniques or options.

Today, be in your centre, yet stay connected to the peripheral reality. Feel the energy that breaks in the external world you are traversing. Hold the centre gently and feel the circling energies from the external environment.

Today is a good day to see the world through your shamanic eyes. The future requires a greater synthesis of consciousness from us, between our modern selves and our archaic body selves. Today is a good day to feel connected to the aliveness of all that surrounds us, in all directions.

Tune into the centre, the subtle and ungraspable energy; feel it without trying to define it or own it.

Tools, like the computer or a smartphone, are useful – but remember they are just tools.

You might want to use the search engine on the net as an extension of your intuition today; feel into the energy emanating from yourself and google it. The internet is a training tool for our natural psychic sensitivity. If it were to become restricted as a medium of free speech, then we would naturally find that our connection to the Noosphere becomes more readily available.

Today, you can attune to the fundamental substance of reality, which is pure empty consciousness. However, it is slippery – you can understand it through receiving it, you can be a conduit for it, but you cannot ‘have’ it or frame it. Allow and navigate with a loose grip and a disciplined sensitivity.

Today, hold the truth that your body is the ultimate tool in this world, programmed to self-heal and regenerate if you align with the innate life force and energy field.
