What might we expect?

The Universe begins a new 9 year cycle: 2017 to 2025.
(The last cycle began in 2008 and ended in 2016).

This cycle begins with revelations…the worms emerging from the woodwork.
A time to reveal, release and cleanse. This may last for a period of 4 years till the tide changes between 2020 & 2021, by which time the divisions of color, creed, race and gender, that appear to be predominant now, gradually begin to dissipate.
But to get there, there appears much work to be done and hence some turbulence to be experienced in the next 4 years.

On a practical level, daily living now becomes more rooted in technology. Homes, restaurants, schools, parks, supermarkets and all that is tangible, as in land, property and anything related to structure, would now be more technologically driven than ever.
The work of the individual would be to make this happen in a harmonious way, in creating, designing, guiding, fixing and yet, Being Present, Connecting, Sharing and Caring.

Cyberspace (electromagnetic energy) takes predominance on all fronts…including cyber protection and cyber warfare. It would be helpful to be knowledgeable and vigilant in regard to these matters.

2017, as the first year of the cycle, marks the beginning of the turning of the tide. The key here is strategy…finding the best solution to deal with the matter at hand. Knowledge assists in the deployment of these ideas towards resolution.
On a practical level, precision and technical expertise help in building up the strength and courage.
It is not about volatility, but a silent, knowing within that brings this all to fruition.

January 2017 speaks of association, adaptation, co-operation and sensitivity to all. Community, groups, organizations, teamwork play a vital role. The Pali and Sanskrit term, ‘Sangha’, best describes this association and community as expressed in the 3 Jewels of Buddhism:

Buddhaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi.
Dhammaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi.
Saṅghaṃ saraṇaṃ gacchāmi.

To the Buddha for refuge I go
( Buddha, the knower, mirroring that which resides deep within myself)
To the Dharma for refuge I go
(Dharma, the teaching, that leads me towards the realization of the peace that resides within me)
To the Sangha for refuge I go
(Sangha, the community/people around me, that associate, guide and help me towards the realization of that which I am)

Every Person Matters. Every Thing In Existence Is Sound Vibration. Perhaps We May Begin To Pay Attention To The Sound We Emanate Through Our Thoughts, Words And Deeds, In The Present Moment…It Matters…It Makes A Big Difference…It Can Change The World.
