The New Year and this month begins under the influence of the Eclipse energies, and it has been intense. The Eclipse energies churn the old patterns and brings to surface the inner nature of the individuals. The various global events presently are the reflection of this inner nature of humanity surfacing in a rapid way.
Many events are tragic, disastrous and overwhelming. But they are also opportunities for us to recognise the error of our ways and bring about changes, both individually and collectively. If we persist with the old, unfortunately only more of such events would manifest.
For those of us pursuing our Spirituality, the best way through this phase is to connect to the positivity within, and to embrace the change. It may be difficult at times, but the more we are able to trust the Higher Intelligence and make efforts, we disconnect from the turbulent world outside and our life goes smoother.
The world may seem to be in turmoil and lack hope, yet the month and Year have new beginnings and opportunities. New energies and more Light is available which on utilizing well, we can tune into a new outlook towards life and living.
The New Year has many opportunities for us to grow. It is also embedded with a lot of Light, Truth and Pralaya energies. We have to mentally accept these and be willing to change. We have to consciously overcome our inertia and rigidity and embrace the flow of life. Keep affirming that you accept the things the way they are and connect to the Divinity within. This will help in sailing smoothly.
The Rishis want many of the difficult situations to get cleared and cleansed as early as possible. This will facilitate the dawn of the good and the better. They want to manifest the shift to the next phase. But again, it comes down to the choices we make!
New energies that facilitate us to explore and understand ourselves better is also being released. This helps with surfacing of our talents and strengths and also aids us to understand our blocks and fears, which we deal with.
The Shunya Masa Rishis have devised a new blueprint for coming year. It will have 12 phases, each lasting for a month. They have strengthened the energies of each month and they will be very different to each other.
The Rishis have invoked a Purusha to be in charge of this year who is equipped with more responsibilities. We can connect to Him and seek guidance, energies and help. He will also aid the individuals to sail through the period smoothly.
On the 15th, the Rishis will also invoke the Sankranti Purusha who will work along with the Purusha of 2020 and guide humanity. He will work towards helping humanity taking responsibility and embracing change.
Our Rishis will be back from their Tapas on Sankranti day and will take charge of the administration again. They will note down the observations and advice from the Shunya Masa Rishis and then implement new plans and various changes.
As mentioned earlier, each of the months of the year will carry different energies and aid humanity in different ways. January will help us to open up and provide new opportunities. It will be a doorway for the year ahead.
