Starting the Cycle From a Place of Neutrality

The color for this moon cycle is grey. Grey is the color that represents neutrality. When we look at the events in our lives, our beliefs, our feelings from a place of neutrality, we are able to see more possibilities. We have more options for creating change, making movement happen. The greyness we experience in these waning winter months can have new meaning for us. We can see it as a reminder to move into a place of neutrality and then be able to see the bigger picture, rather than be sucked into mid-winter depression and despair!

Grey is the perfect background for reflecting all of who we can be and help us to see outside of ourselves more accurately.

Try this as an experiment: Take a grey piece of fabric (or paper) and a white piece of fabric (or paper) and lay upon each one a colored object (or paper or piece of fabric). You will notice that the colored object has more vibrancy and depth against the grey as in comparison to the white.

So it is also in our lives. When we become willing to live in the grey of things, rather than insist on a black and white world, we see things more fully and brilliantly and can also see more possibilities. By learning to come into a place of neutrality, we can release our judgments and embrace the wisdom of discernment. (For those interested in archetypes--discernment is the matures and enlightened aspect of the archetype of the judge).

Self-Reflection:  If I am willing to live the neutrality of grey, my true brilliance will be clearly reflected. I can Honor can Truth.
