Did this Summer feel different to you, too?
Usually, summer feels like coming home to a familiar version of ourselves, bringing out our wild side, calling us to be fully present and enjoy the seemingly eternal warmth and passion for life itself. This year though, it felt different to us: Everyone seemed to dance to their own rhythm, even the weather had its own plans. The rain felt like a powerful cleanse for the collective and at the same time nourishing for mother nature. Things happened, that had to happen. Without judging, without influencing - seeing the bigger picture. Everything felt a bit more serious – of course, what is happening in the world is also felt by all of us, whether we face it consciously or subconsciously.
Still the energy of this time is all about taking full responsibility individually. So in a nutshell, the universe was like: Fun: yes, BUT only if aligned with your bigger mission. Nonsense distractions not allowed.
With the end of Leo season – the time of the fun sun – and the beginning of Virgo season, we therefore almost feel a sense of relief. (As many of us truly were so used to those “fun-distractions” from previous summers that something were kind of missing?! Well - not anymore now. The shift is here now today). Virgo allows us to soften and relax into the change ahead. And into what truly is meant to be. And that feels so absolutely right. There is no forcing or “Leo-need” to have excessive fun or expressing or proving anything. Now, we find naturally the power within to take inventory, truly work through what has built up and declutter.
This is also what business wise MAATÏ MAATÏ reflects behind the scenes: We feel so deeply connected with our inner worlds, while preparing for the slower seasons to look inwards on the Greek Islands. And right in that silence clarity can come: Two new designs of THE SHAWLS came through with ease, with such clarity and higher guidance. Two topics that couldn´t be more on point for exactly this time and frequency of the earth. We will keep you updated throughout the process over the next few months…
At the moment we simply allow ourselves to feel the energy, paint, draft, channel and create this new energy coming into form slowly - creating two more THE SHAWL designs… we do not know yet how long this journey will take, we take all the time needed. And this is exactly what we would love to inspire you to do, too. With whatever you are up to right now. Take time. Allow the clarity in - to breathe through you. That´s the higher guidance and the perfect shift for that is today.
So slow down, soulMAATÏ… and trust.
See you soon with an update from us on the Greek Islands.
