PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that some of our current moments of felt-disconnection, mental confusion, and physical disorientation are not simply because creation is entering meaningless, haphazard chaos, but because by blindly riding the mechanical rhythm of the machine we have become strangers to consciously participating in the authentic energetic intent of this moment.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Inward. Consider that the whole of creation is a sentient life form which is continually breathing - in and out, in and out. Consider that when creation breathes out we experience a rejuvenating, flourishing, revitalizing flow moving through all experience. Consider that when creation breathes in we experience what appears to be a dismantling, decaying, disrupting flow through all experience. Consider the out-breath as seeding and the in-breath as harvesting. Consider that when we try to breathe out when we ought to be breathing in - we become winded, confused, and disoriented. Consider that because our current calendar is not based on a connection to the natural cycles of creation - that because it is intended to support only the continual mass manufacture of machine-consciousness - that we no longer have a clue as to whether we are breathing in or out. Consider how many millions now stumble blindly across this planet - winded, confused, and disorientated. Consider this moment of creation and ask the heart: "Are we in the midst of a great out-breath, or are we in the midst of a great in-breath?"
HEART INTENT: Harvest. Consider that a time of harvest is not a time to gather everything - but only that which has blossomed into fruiting. Consider that there is only a certain time period for the farmer to gather the harvest before it spoils. Consider that although the farmer would love to gather the entirety of the crop - that the gathering of unripe or worm-infested fruit is not only wasted time and energy - but that it serves only to bitter the quality of the overall harvest. Consider that it is time now to gaze outward upon our creations and to discern what is blossoming into juicy fruit from what is unripe and worm-infested. Consider that it is time to gather what is ripened, to carry it gently inward into the heart-space upon our harvest baskets of felt-perception, and to place it upon the altar of completion. Consider that the harvest is first completed before the dance of the celebration banquet begins.

ASCENSION & BEINGNESS
PRIMARY INTENT: Sometimes we have to say a lot to bring our attention to that which requires no words to be. Sometimes words simply distract.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Ascension. The process of becoming aware of what we are.
HEART INTENT: Beingness. After everything we have gone through - what is still here and unchanged?

RHYTHM & CEREMONY
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that the rhythm of the heart conducts the ceremony of the Soul.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Rhythm. Consider that every expression of the vibrational as it is manifest in creation has a unique rhythm to it. Notice how when we focus upon any manifestation's rhythm - instead of our mental stories about why its here and what it does and what we like or dislike about it - then everything begins to reveal itself as part of a dance. Consider that although we may not be able to visibly perceive the rhythm that we are - because it is challenging to look at ourselves from an external point of view - that we can access this awareness about ourselves through 'feeling it'. Consider that the felt-aspect of our experience is our direct portal into a union with our own unique rhythm. Consider that when we let go of our own stories about why we are here, what we are supposed to be doing, and what we like and dislike about ourselves - and instead allow ourselves to sink fully into the felt-aspect of our experience - we directly enter an awareness of the dance The Dancer dances through us.
HEART INTENT: Ceremony. Consider that 'a ceremony' is any experiential vehicle we use to enter a direct awareness of, and capacity to, consciously ride not only our personal rhythms - but also those of the earth, its creatures, and of the entire cosmos that blankets us. Consider that it is through ceremony that we experientially realize the connectedness of all creation's rhythms as being a dance we are intimately part of. Consider that ceremony is also a way to individually and collectively experientially show our gratitude to The Great Dancer that dances us all. Consider that when we forget to perform our ceremonies, and hence forget why they are given to us in the first place, that we lose not only our awareness of this interconnectivity, but also a great opportunity to express gratitude experientially. Consider that one of the reasons we are such a troubled species is that so many of our ceremonies have been forbidden and forgotten, and so we now dance wearily to music that for the most part connects us to nothing more than another plug in another wall. Consider calling our ceremonies back to us, and sending out a blessing of gratitude to those who still honor The Great Dancer in this magical, experiential way.

CLOSENESS & RELEASE
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that being graced with an intimate vibrational experience with another does not occur in our experience to cause us to cling. Consider that it comes as a gift to awaken within us the capacity for ongoing gentle release. Consider that intimacy with another comes to bless us with the realization that the state of vibrational connectedness can never truly be 'gained' or 'lost' as it is the permanent reality underlying the fabric of our every moment.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Closeness. Consider that our sexually intimate relationships with another are the ones that tend to impact us the most because when we have such an encounter we temporarily merge our shared vibrational causality. Consider that this temporary vibrational merging reminds us more of our authentic state - that of vibrational connectedness with everything - than almost any other available human experience. Consider that when we cannot let go of a past sexual companion - even though they are no longer with us - that it is not they whom we miss - but rather the energetic felt-resonance of this vibrational connectedness. Consider that as long as we yearn for such a past encounter, we remain closed to receiving another that is now knocking, seeks to be opened to, and welcomed in.
HEART INTENT: Release. It was Timothy Leary who said, "Grab hold tightly, let go lightly." Consider that within this wise expression is transmitted the reality that everything which comes, goes, and that when it is happening, we are to dive in deeply, but when it is complete, we are to gracefully continue upon our way. Consider that when we are unable to release our attachment to another with whom we shared profound closeness, it is because we entered that experience seeking to get something and therefore in an unconscious, blinkered state of wanting - rather than in an open, untangled state of receiving. Consider that while we - through our unsatisfied wanting - are unable to truly release whomever of the past we hold fast, we simultaneously obstruct an aspect of our felt-awareness of peace and completion within this moment. Consider how graceful release leads to receiving, how receiving leads to peaceful completion, and how peaceful completion keeps us vibrationally receptive.

ACCOMPLISHMENT & AUTHENTICITY
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that the moment we commit to standing - firmly yet compassionately - amidst the felt-resonance of the current condition of our heart, we are already accomplished.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Accomplishment. Consider that there are two points at which we are likely to gauge accomplishment - by how the world feels about us when we walk out our front door, and by how we feel about ourselves when we close our eyes at night to sleep. Consider that if we are only concerned with how the world feels about us when we walk out our front door - then we may not get as much rest and rejuvenation from our night’s sleep as is possible. Consider that if we are only concerned with how we feel about ourselves when we close our eyes to sleep - that we may naively leave our front door open when we go to sleep at night. Consider that when it comes to these two measurements of accomplishment, it is not either/or - it is 'and'. Consider that authentic accomplishment arises from how well we bridge our inner and outer world - but most importantly - that we bridge.
HEART INTENT: Authenticity. Consider that one of our greatest struggles when it comes to accomplishing the resonance of 'feeling authentic' is that we assume there is a preset list of moral markers that must be met for us to be declared authentic. Consider that this preset list of moral markers are passed onto us at a young age by those who also believe this, and who also received similar instruction at a young age from their parents and peers. Consider that the most accurate definition for authenticity is: "I am right now being true to what I am feeling right now". Consider that when we consistently respond to the felt-aspect of our experience as being valid - by responding as opposed to reacting to it - we remain within a resonance that is undeniably authentic. If we are afraid, angry or sad - we respond to our fear, anger or sadness by acknowledging it to be a valid experience - not mentally pushing it away because we are shackled by some pre-determined moral marker that tells us we are always supposed to behave "nice and happy". Consider that 'validation' means we do not take these feelings out unconsciously upon others or the world - instead we consciously ride these feelings into our heart and resolve them at their point of causality. Consider that authenticity only comes from authenticity.

ENOUGH & PLAY
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that just as playfulness is the automatic radiance of a light heart - it too is the heart's light. Shine in, on, and out.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Enough. Consider that the one word and concept children are not introduced to in our schooling systems is the word "enough". Consider that the dire financial state of our world right now is a consequence of our capitalistic consciousness not having the word "enough" in its vocabulary. Consider that while we do not bring resolution to the fear, anger, and grief within our heart, nothing in this outer world experience can ever be "enough" for us. Consider that the lack of peace experienced by humanity is the consequence of our inability to know when we have "enough ". Consider that realizing what "enough" means necessitates our being able discern the difference between what we want and what we require. Consider that there is only enough of everything for everyone on planet earth when we each individually install and awareness and use of the word "enough" into our personal experience.
HEART INTENT: Play. Consider that when we forget we are always playing, then on some deep inner level we are sadly straying. Consider that even the most serious actor performing the most serious, tragic, dramatic interpretation, is still playing. Consider that playfulness is the frequency most vulnerable to inspiration, insight, communion, laughter, health, abundance, and personal growth. Consider that playfulness brings out the child within the adult - and that it is the child - not that adult - which is made in the image of whatever God is. Consider that it is only when we have become addicted to our drama that we experience playfulness as annoying.

ASSERTIVENESS & FORCE
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that there is not one among us who does not respect, admire, and yearn to be the human who has the power to unflinchingly assert themselves when the moment calls for such resolve.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Assertiveness. Consider that when we have not resolved our imprinted emotional states related to conflict, we consciously and unconsciously are repulsed by, and so inadvertently magnetize, the resonance of aggression within our field. Consider that the manifestations of aggression around us continue until we integrate our imprinted fear, anger and grief connected to conflict. Consider that these manifestations we call 'aggression' do not simply evaporate when we integrate them - because integration does not mean, 'to get rid of' - it means, 'to embrace fully'. Consider that once we integrate aggression, the self-same energy is transformed into a capacity for assertiveness. Consider that there is zero emotional aggression in storms, earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, and tsunamis - that these are all examples of nature asserting herself when required. Consider that unless we are able to assert ourselves when required, we remain limp replicas of our intended potential.
HEART INTENT: Force. Consider the great forces that come to play upon our lives, just like the hammer of the blacksmith upon the sword that is repeatedly bathed in searing flame. Consider how these forces temper us, and that when we cannot integrate and therefore contain them - we lose our temper. Consider how some religions have made the blacksmith invisible by calling the hammer 'God' and the flame 'the Devil', and so have fractured and confused our capacity to view our experience from an integrated point of view. Consider that to become 'a sword in the hands of Love' there are moments when we are required to receive the blows of the hammer, feel the heat of the flames, to be sheathed in quiet stillness and silence, and to be willing to be unleashed to slice exposed flesh upon the battlefield. Consider that authentic power comes from realizing that every part of this great play is the body, mind and heart of what God is. Consider that power - the power that unleashes storms, shatters with earthquakes, erupts with volcanoes, hurtles with tornadoes, and flattens with tsunamis, is only placed in the heart of those who are not afraid to assert themselves when required.
