0. The Fool

Guiding words/ideas:

Lean back; let go; interconnectivity; release armoring on the backside of the body; you are lovingly held by all that is; trust will be rewarded with a feeling of deep belonging.

Channeled guidance:

It is time, Beloved, to lean back and let go in order for this version of your journey to commence. The level of trust that is needed to begin again and again and again may seem foolish, but allow yourself to be the fool. Allow yourself to take risks, to leap unknowing into the world.

What makes this possible is the fact that you are not alone. You are held lovingly in the warm embrace of all that is, all that was, and all that is about to be. For you are a part of everything. Release any armoring that you may have on the backside of your body. Trust that as you fall into the delicious unknown, you will not only be caught but that you will also be absorbed. The fall will not be jarring, for it will allow you to dissolve into the very particles of your being as you connect with all. You will be rewarded for your trust with a deep sense of belonging.

So travel well, my friend. Sometimes it is exquisitely wise to be the fool.
