The first full moon of the 2019 calendar year began with a striking eclipse on January 20, 2019, and I wanted to share my eclipse story with you all and it’s portends for the coming energetic season.
In Gratitude for Men
Two weekends before the eclipse, I went to Lake Tahoe and got stuck in a huge blizzard. I drove around in the car for 9 1/2 hours in a roughly 2 mile circle. At one point I pulled over and was just shaking, knowing I had through angelic guidance averted being stuck for hours in the night on the highway pass, fully unprepared for 12 hours in the cold.
I also had the sense it would be dangerous to drive the car on the freeway but I didn’t know why. I intuitively knew something was wrong with the car but I didn’t know what until the chains started slipping – I had the wrong kind, the wrong type, the wrong size for the car. By evening in the dark my chains had slipped off of one wheel twice and we had retreated from driving back to the house because of loads of people sliding into each other in accidents.
I was assisted so many times by beautiful, wonderful men being men. One of them looked at my slipped chains askance and then helped me by unhooking them and righting their position – lying on the ground, getting wet, shouting as it snowed, yanking them off from being stuck around the wheel, trusting me to keep the car from moving.
The next man said ‘not really’ when I asked if he knew about chains, about 2 hours later when they went sideways again. Again this man trusted me to keep the car from moving as he worked, down in snow on the ground, to unwrap the tight chains and straighten them yelling out instructions to turn the wheel this way and that. He knew exactly what he was doing.
The Alpine taxi driver took us through 12 inches of snow in his huge four by four truck and I won’t ever make fun of big trucks again after that. There was no where else to stay but to get to the house, although I found out later we probably could have slept in a church or at the high school.
My brother in law did research without my asking to find the right chains, get the last set reserved at the auto store the next morning, and put them on with my nephew explaining the process to me.
A nice young man took them off for me when I pulled off the freeway driving down the mountain where the road had cleared. I knew I didn’t have pliers and wouldn’t be able to unhook them anyway.
And, when I pulled over to wipe the frozen grime off my windshield, another man pulled off and just sat there until he realized that I was fine and then pulled out giving me a wave and smile.
When I got home and had the feeling to have the car checked, I had to bring the car in twice before they found it because the windshield wiper for the headlight had a leak in it and they took off the bumper and had a closer look – the brake hose had a dent in it and a ‘chunk’ taken out of it. The service man was kind and gave me a deal on repairs.
The angelic protection and the male energy of protecting and supporting the feminine was so incredible and overwhelming that the gratitude I felt was one of the most intense feelings I’ve ever experienced. I spent two hours crying in the week hours of the night after my snowy adventures with pure gratitude flowing.
And then, to my shock, a parasite came out of my body. After accepting so much assistance and help from strangers, after experiencing the heroic nature of men supporting the feminine in quiet strength and kindness, that which was harming me that I didn’t even know was there just couldn’t take it anymore, lol, and left in a hurry.
I realize that for those men and women who live in snowy areas, they would have handled this blizzard and would have been capable and prepared. So this situation was a particular set of events for me personally that conspired and transpired to cause a huge energetic shift in me to change my life. And that is what I feel will now happen.
Lesson learned, in my next snowstorm, I will have good chains and pliers in the car.
After this experience, I feel the energy to do and to be things I dreamed of but wasn’t ready for before, nor was I yet capable of them. Now I feel the healing of this experience inside, and it’s freed up so much energy within me to step out and in my own way to fulfill my hopes and dreams.
In Honor of the Divine Masculine
This is the gracious support as a woman that I received from men that weekend, in what was at times a potentially dangerous situation, they were there for me, they just showed up, helped out, and carried on. I approached and asked for help, or they just gave it, as a fully empowered woman having assessed the situation, knowing my own limitations and the limitations created by the weather, being willing to ask for help, and to accept it.
In a spiritual sense, I felt something I hadn’t fully received before; an understanding through lived experience of the feminine and the masculine and their proper complimenting energies, in loving and supportive relationship and balance.
Through this experience, I received a glimpse into the interplay between the divine feminine and the divine masculine, and the experience was rewarding and it was beautiful.
When I rented a car because mine was in the shop, the lady upgraded me to a Mustang. I looked up the spiritual meaning of mustang and this line stood out for me: “You are being presented with a gift of safe movement.” I feel that this is the nut or kernel within these eclipse energies, and that this gift will be long lasting. ❤️💙
Love, Susan
