Horses are incredible animals. For some they talk, for others they run, and for others they simply work and eat. Those who talk to horses become subject in a good way. Please, let me explain.
Horses have been around for 40 million years. They were a much smaller version back then. They were the size of a big squirrel and were always looking for shelter.
Forty-five thousand year ago they began to evolved into a much larger, faster, stronger and smarter version. Yet, there need for shelter and security has continued into today.
The month of July 2024 is a time to rest, relax, and regenerate. We are presently between two bookends of intensity, the previous month of June and the coming month of August. It is important now to restore our reserve strength, as this will allow for a greater sense of resiliency while navigating the second half of the year.
Communities need a purpose. Spiritual communities need an elevated purpose. All communities need "buy in" leadership with the correct cause, a community which follows the community protocol. When the community elders no longer take living the purpose primarily, the community begins it’s decent into individual purposes. Community spirit is lost. The community may continue to exist, but it’s relevance has been diminished.
There is a quickening in the air, and a desire to rush forth in the hopes of experiencing that which has previously been denied or withheld this year. We want to hurry up and get to the good stuff, as the number 6 of June represents the themes of love, home, and beauty.

Unta Beant, true self-worth. What’s your life worth? Some time ago, some cultural scientists who wanted to know, arithmetically harvested anything of monetary value in our bodies, like the minerals in our bones, then added up it’s total value. It was estimated that the value of a human life was 78 cents, and that’s before taxes. Today, inflation might have pushed up the value to two or three dollars. Wow! That’s it? I thought I’d at least get ten dollars for my body.

The month of May generates within us a new enthusiasm to move forward in a direct and decisive way. Number 5 is adventurous, experiential, curious, and most of all wants change! There is a frisky and free-rolling energy at play now, and we can use this new frequency to our best advantage as long as we keep the risk/reward ratio in balance.
I and Thou. The classic book, I and Thou, by Martin Buber and published in 1923, set the standard of the day for many in relationships and communication (including with God). In this book, I and Thou, is an insightful answer into the deep questions of the time. It is, and shall remain a classic. In fact, I reread this book every decade or so to remind myself of Mr. Buber’s great insight.
I’m a Sikh, so I have a slightly different take on I and Thou - not the book, but the reality. Please allow me to explain.
The month of April is a time when we can make a bold step forward, as long as we temper the tempo with logic and reason. The number 4 represents the Neutral Mind, and it is a neutral, steady, and balanced plan that will win the prize. This is not always an easy approach to maintain, as we are presently navigating a time of an increasingly intense reactivity towards any differing opinion that is expressed.
