Today’s Divine Reflection:
When you find yourself attached to that which no longer serves but still feels essential, trust and step out on faith. You just might find that what you reluctantly left behind in no way compares to the wonder, beauty and perfection of what you step into. Even when you can’t see the other side, the Universe can. ~ Beth Herndobler
In two days, on February 18, 2022 between 3am and 5am, there is the Water Tiger Celestial Event that is very propitious for manifesting. The energy is magnificent and so powerful as this day is the day of the Water Tiger, in the month of the Water Tiger, in the year of the Water Tiger. BOOM!
Here’s how it goes. February is the first month of the 2022 Chinese year of the Water Tiger. In Chinese astrology, this month is a launchpad of energy. In addition, the Tiger energy is one of the most powerful and explosive energies in all 12 Chinese zodiac signs. Added to the power of the Water Tiger energy, this 2022 year has special energy and for the cherry-on-top, this day the 18th super charges all of that powerful energy. To take full advantage of the expansive energy for manifesting that the Water Tiger Celestial Event, to amplify the magic, wake up between 3am and 5 am because that is the hour of the Tiger. There are five different tiger energies in Chinese astrology, the Water Tiger energy being one so generally, you only have a one in five chance to play in the Water Tiger energy at any given hour of the tiger. On the 18th, the Water Tiger energy will be flowing. This is such a rare celestial event that it is worth setting your alarm to be up between 3am and 5am to work with these powerful energies at the peak of the energies power. Know to that this Celestial Event won’t come again for 60 years.
This is a very important day for you to call on and flow in inner peace. On February 18th you want to do as little as possible and focus more on your inner world. Ideally use this day as a self-directed personal retreat. Turn off your electronics. Get out in nature and be still calling upon your Higher Self for what is in your highest interest on this day. Meditate. Be, really be, with yourself. Journal and do some visualization of what more you seek to manifest and then meditate.
Between 3 and 5 a.m is the hour of the Water Tiger. IF you are able to be awake at that propitious and powerful hour, you may choose to do the Tonglen meditation. This is a Tibetan Buddhist meditation that sends and receives energy. As it draws in and out energy, it’s a great manifesting meditation.
Here are the steps to the Tonglen Meditaion:
Close your eyes and relax your body. Turn your focus to your breath. Once you feel peaceful, settled and focused, breathe in all suffering and breathe out light. Continue this with each breath, breathing more deeply and slowly as you go.
This may feel counterintuitive as generally we breathe in light and breathe out suffering, blocks and stuck points. The Tonglen Meditation is about transforming your suffering into light. For a skilled Tibetan Buddhist Monk, they can breathe in the suffering of the whole entire world and transform that into light. That surely isn’t recommended here as we are none of us as skilled as Buddhist Monks in this practice and the trying to transform all suffering would be too much. I do recommend that you focus on and breathe in your own suffering, the suffering in your life, and transform that into light. This is a safe practice as whatever suffering in already present in you and your life is already there and blocking you. By breathing it in you’re telling the universe that you are surrendering to what is. You’re surrendering to the truth and 3D reality of your life. And then in this surrender to the suffering that is, you tap into your higher power to transform it and then to call in what you seek as transforming the suffering opens space for the higher energy of what you seek to manifest.
Do not be afraid of the suffering and pain in your life ~ it only has the power you give it. Breathe it in. Breathe in the painful moments and the trauma you’ve experienced in your life. Breathe in any painful energy and then breathe out light and let the light flow in, through and as you. Drawing in and receiving the light eliminates and dissolves the suffering. This powerful meditation can be used anytime to transform problems, challenges, pain and suffering you’ve experienced. And when you do it on this super high vibe powerful day of the Water Tiger, you are calling in that energy and the Universe to support you in this transformation of suffering into magnificent divine light. To really amplify the results, you could start the meditation today and then continue in the predawn hours of February 18th and throughout the whole of the day.
A word of caution: given the Water Tiger powerful energy coming in this 2022 year and on this 18th day, there is sure to be a lot of dense negative energy free floating and amplified by this powerful Water Tiger energy. Stay grounded, present, be still and know the truth and light of you. This is not a day to start anything new. Not a good day to make big investments, sign contracts, begin a trip, or to gather with crowds. In general refrain from engaging or interacting with negative energy and emotion (includes negative people) on this day. This is a good day to take off and stay in your room this day so if that is available, I encourage that course.
