The Front Porch of Just Right
Under the Taurus Moon--A Journey Through the Spiral of Wholeness
A Frequency Re-organization/Re-orientation Opportunity Guide
Just imagine.
It's a beautiful evening on the Front Porch of the Milky Way. The stars are shining, the air feels wonderful, and a great, round Moon has settled into the sky as though it intends to stay awhile and enjoy the view.
And what a view it is!
From this Porch, the stars stretch farther than the eye can see. Galaxies shimmer in great rivers of Light, and somewhere among all those magnificent arrangements is a little blue planet, turning gently beneath the Moon.
Earth.
And there you are, sitting on the Porch, enjoying the whole thing.
Now, Taurus has arrived for the evening, and Taurus has absolutely no intention of spending it proving how strong it is. There's a comfortable chair, a soft pillow, a little something delicious within reach, and, if nobody minds, somebody could pass those chocolates.
Taurus has everything it needs to enjoy the evening, thank you very much.
And isn't that interesting?
Somewhere along the way, we began believing that strength had to look like effort. That abundance had to be chased, comfort had to be earned, and ease was something we might finally enjoy once we'd finished all the important things we were supposed to do.
But Taurus seems to know something different.
There's strength in being comfortable enough with yourself to enjoy your own Story.
There's stability in knowing what feels Just Right.
And there's an extraordinary freedom in knowing that you can put your feet up without having to explain to the entire neighborhood why you're entitled to enjoy your evening!
The Moon shines a little brighter.
And from where you're sitting, you begin to notice something rather wonderful.
The Light of the Moon isn't making the stars compete for attention. The stars aren't trying to outshine one another, and the planets aren't stopping to ask whether everybody approves of their particular arrangement.
Everything is moving.
Everything is participating.
And somehow, the whole magnificent picture holds together.
Just imagine that.
You settle a little farther into your chair, and the view begins to widen.
At first, you see the Earth, turning beneath the silver Moon. Then the continents become visible, followed by mountains, valleys, rivers, coastlines, cities, towns, homes, and gardens.
Moonlight shimmers across one coastline while, halfway around the world, morning sunlight spills through somebody's kitchen window. Night and day, thousands of different Stories, all happening together in the same magnificent collective.
Lights twinkle in windows. Somewhere, supper is being prepared. Someone is singing while washing dishes. Someone else is watching the water from a porch very much like this one.
A little farther along, there's someone working on a beautiful mathematical equation, completely delighted with the way the numbers fit together. Another is choosing colors for a painting. Someone is sewing, someone is writing, and someone is sitting quietly, enjoying absolutely nothing more complicated than watching the birds.
Each is creating through a unique Perspective.
Each is experiencing a different Story.
And every one of those Stories is part of the Whole.
Now, isn't THAT a beautiful sight?
As you watch, you begin to notice fine ribbons of Light moving among the Stories. Some are almost identical in color and rhythm. Others are wonderfully different, but they move together in an arrangement that feels natural and complete.
You notice two dear friends laughing over coffee. Their Stories move so closely together that the Light around them seems to dance.
Nearby, a family enjoys an evening together. Each Being has a different Perspective, yet every voice, every laugh, every little expression belongs to the experience they are sharing.
Then you notice the mail carrier making the last delivery of the afternoon.
There is a whole Story there, too.
The mail carrier may have entirely different interests, ideas, and beliefs from the Being who opens the door. But there's the mail, arriving just where it belongs. A greeting, a smile, and another little exchange of Energy.
The mail carrier doesn't have to become somebody else to deliver the mail.
The Being receiving the mail doesn't have to adopt the carrier's entire Story.
They can enjoy exactly what belongs to their shared Now.
And when the mail carrier moves on, each continues along with a unique Story of their own.
Just imagine how much of the world works that way---EVERYTHING!
Everywhere you look, different frequencies are participating in different degrees of closeness. Some share years together. Others share an afternoon, a purchase, a conversation, or a passing smile.
Some bring delightful new colors into a familiar arrangement. Others contribute a little salt and pepper.
And none of those differences makes the Whole less Whole.
Oneness was never sameness.
You sit with that for a moment, watching the ribbons of Light moving among all those Stories.
Then something quite extraordinary becomes visible.
The ribbons aren't beginning at the other Beings and traveling toward you to tell you who to be. Nor are you sending out instructions for everyone else to follow.
Each expression of Energy is participating as itself, and the collective is organizing through that participation.
A change in one Perspective belongs to a change in the collective. The new collective offers new experiences, new information, and new possibilities for every Perspective participating.
Nobody has to stand outside the Story and arrange all the pieces.
The Story is Energy organizing.
And you are Energy.
And as you watch, those beautiful ribbons of Light shift into another arrangement. Each is still uniquely itself, yet the whole picture has changed. Nobody stepped outside the Story to rearrange it. The Energy is already moving together.
Well, now.
That certainly gives you something interesting to enjoy with your chocolates.
Across the Porch, Venus begins to glow.
There is a softness to her Light, pink and green moving together in the most beautiful shades. Love, appreciation, abundance, beauty, pleasure, and the wonderful experience of being completely yourself.
Her Light moves through the great collective field, and suddenly you can see how naturally self-respect and mutual respect belong together.
A Being who knows the value of its own unique Perspective can appreciate that another Perspective has value, too.
There is no need to make everyone alike.
No need to collect a group of Beings who agree about absolutely everything.
Imagine how dull THAT conversation would become!
One likes the mountains. Another loves the ocean. Someone could happily spend an entire afternoon talking about science, while somebody else would rather discuss a new recipe or the birds visiting the garden.
And isn't it wonderful that they can all bring their own interests to the same Porch?
The enjoyment of one doesn't require the diminishment of another.
They are different expressions of the same great Wholeness.
And Venus seems positively delighted with the arrangement.
Now, something else is happening in the sky.
Mercury is making one of those interesting turns that, from Earth's Perspective, looks as though it is moving backward.
And Venus, too, seems to be revisiting part of the great celestial dance.
But from the Front Porch of the Milky Way, you can see something that isn't nearly so obvious from the ground.
Nothing has to stop moving forward for a spiral to bring something familiar back into view.
Just imagine a beautiful spiral staircase, circling around and upward. Each turn brings you near something you've seen before, but never from exactly the same Perspective.
There's the garden you loved when you were little. The music that made you feel wonderful. A Story you once dreamed of writing. A place you wanted to visit. An experience you were curious about long before you had words to explain why.
And now, as the spiral carries you around again, there they are.
Not demanding that you go backward.
Not asking you to become the Being you were when you first encountered them.
Simply appearing in a wider field of awareness, where everything you've experienced since then is part of the Whole.
Perhaps that old melody sounds even more beautiful now.
Perhaps the Story you wanted to write has become part of something much larger.
Perhaps an interest you once set aside is emerging in an entirely new way.
Or perhaps you simply smile at something you enjoyed and discover that what belongs to your Current Story is even more delightful.
There's no need to collect everything.
The All already holds the All.
And nothing you genuinely are has been lost.
What belongs to this Now is becoming perceptible in this Now.
Just imagine that.
A gentle sound draws your attention to the wind chimes hanging near the Porch steps.
Mercury's Light is moving through them, and the tones ring out in a beautiful little conversation.
One chime sounds. Another answers. A third brings a note neither of the others could have made alone.
Communication.
Information.
Conscious Energy becoming perceptible through Light and Sound, feeling and knowing, and all the wonderful ways a Story can be experienced.
You look down toward Earth again.
There are birds flying over a garden, butterflies moving among the flowers, sunlight spilling across a window, and countless little experiences appearing in Now after Now.
You notice how easily attention can become so occupied with one part of a Story that the rest of the picture seems to disappear.
And then, just imagine, a little sound catches your attention.
Perhaps it's a bird outside the window.
Perhaps it's a familiar song.
Perhaps it's a message arriving just as you're thinking about something wonderful.
Whatever it is, you become aware of a wider view.
And there's the garden, the sunshine, the birds, and all those other wonderful things that were present in the Story.
The information didn't have to frighten you into awareness. It simply became part of what you noticed.
And suddenly, you can appreciate how much of your experience is available through your own senses, how much of your knowing is already present in the feeling of what is emerging.
That brings a smile.
Because the Whole Being doesn't have to send a separate little self out looking for instructions about how to become Whole.
The Whole Being is already Being.
And the tactile Perspective is experiencing that Being as Story.
Now the Moonlight begins to move across the Porch floor, and something truly beautiful appears.
A great golden spiral, shimmering with ten magnificent turns, unfolds among the stars.
Each turn is filled with little points of Light, like windows looking out on countless possibilities.
You notice that the spiral doesn't have a beginning where everything was missing and an ending where everything finally becomes enough.
It's a continuous movement of Energy, organizing and reorganizing, with every turn bringing another Now into view.
One turn opens with the excitement of a fresh perspective. Another reveals the beauty of sharing that perspective with someone whose Energy feels wonderfully compatible. Another becomes playful, expressive, full of ideas and opportunities to enjoy the Story together.
Farther along, the Light settles into the pleasure of stability. There's a comfortable home, a beautiful garden, a place where the whole arrangement feels so perfectly natural that nothing needs to be pushed into position.
Then the spiral opens again.
Fresh interests. Different experiences. Wonderful discoveries. Familiar things enjoyed in entirely new ways.
And as the Light continues around, the movement becomes more expansive, more fluid, with one Now flowing into another in ways that feel increasingly natural.
Some possibilities become clearer. Others simply move out of view as the Story continues.
And then comes a magnificent turn, filled with the satisfaction of a complete experience.
Not the end of everything.
The completion of one beautiful arrangement, with another already emerging.
The spiral continues.
And here's something interesting.
As you look more closely, you realize these aren't ten years already written out in a book that someone else has decided you must live.
They're ten beautiful turns of possibility, a way of appreciating the rhythms through which Story can unfold.
Nothing is demanding that you follow a particular path or arrive at a particular experience on a particular day.
But you can recognize the feeling of Wholeness moving through every turn.
And that's what makes the whole journey so delightful.
You don't have to know every detail to recognize what feels Just Right.
You can enjoy the movement without needing the next ten years explained to you before you've finished enjoying this evening.
The Moonlight widens.
And suddenly those ten turns are only one little spiral within a much larger one.
Years, months, days, afternoons, moments.
Every Now a whole new arrangement.
Every Now containing the Energy participating in it.
Every Now connected to the endless progression of the All.
And there you are, right in the middle of the most extraordinary view.
Except something has changed about the way you're seeing it.
You're no longer a tiny Being looking out at an enormous world, wondering how to make your little life significant enough to matter.
You're seeing the world as the collective expression of Conscious Energy that already includes you.
The All is not the All minus you.
Your unique Perspective belongs to the Whole.
Every expression of your authentic Being participates in the Story, just as the authentic expression of every other Being participates in the collectives you share.
You don't have to compete for a place in a world that already includes you.
And as that understanding settles into the experience, something wonderful becomes available.
A simple question.
How do I want to feel?
The Porch grows beautifully quiet.
Not an empty quiet. A living quiet, filled with the soft sounds of the evening, the gentle movement of the stars, and the great ocean of Energy all around you.
And the question isn't asking you to invent an answer so you can begin working toward it.
It's inviting you to become aware of the feeling already available within your Whole Being.
The wonderful feeling of being yourself.
Of being comfortable in your own Story.
Of being loved and loving, respected and respectful, supported and supportive.
Of enjoying enough time to experience what you love, enough resources to participate in the experiences that delight you, and enough freedom to follow the Story emerging through you.
Let that feeling become familiar.
Imagine the comfort of knowing there is room for your creativity, your curiosity, your interests, your enjoyment.
Imagine the pleasure of waking in the morning with something wonderful to look forward to, without needing to know precisely how every part of the day will unfold.
Perhaps there's a new place to explore, a wonderful conversation, a beautiful meal, a song you've always loved, or something completely unexpected that feels immediately, unmistakably right.
Perhaps an invitation arrives, and your whole Being responds with delight.
Perhaps you spend the afternoon enjoying the water, the birds, the breeze, and the magnificent experience of having absolutely nowhere else you'd rather be.
And perhaps tomorrow brings an entirely different enjoyment.
That's the beauty of Story.
One Now doesn't need to contain every wonderful experience that belongs to you.
Tactility gives each experience somewhere to be enjoyed.
And fluidity allows the Story to keep moving.
You can enjoy the beautiful Now you're in while the next beautiful Now is becoming perceptible.
Just imagine living that way.
Now, from the Porch, look once more at the little blue planet beneath the Moon.
See the homes, gardens, roads, boats, businesses, friendships, families, and all those countless Stories moving together.
And among them is your own life.
See yourself moving through an ordinary, beautiful day.
There is something wonderfully calm about your presence.
You are interested in the world around you without needing to become everything you encounter.
You can appreciate somebody else's joy without needing their exact experience to become yours.
You can recognize a different Perspective without making it responsible for telling you who you are.
You can participate in another Being's Story without abandoning your own.
And you can enjoy the extraordinary variety of the collective without expecting it to become vanilla.
That's what makes the Story interesting!
The mail carrier can bring the mail. The musician can sing. The scientist can delight in a discovery. The cook can enjoy the meal. The artist can create something beautiful.
And each may discover that even greater enjoyment becomes available through the unique Perspective of another.
A little salt.
A little pepper.
A whole lot of Story.
And everywhere, Conscious Energy participating.
You notice that some of the ribbons of Light are moving very close to your own. These are the experiences that feel intimate and naturally compatible, the relationships and activities through which your own Story feels wonderfully supported.
Other ribbons cross yours only briefly, bringing something interesting to the Now before continuing into different arrangements.
And somewhere farther out are countless other expressions of Energy, participating in Stories you may never consciously encounter.
All belonging to the All.
None needing to become identical.
Wholeness doesn't require sameness. Wholeness allows differentiation without separation.
Now, just imagine noticing your own Light more clearly.
You are not looking at yourself from the outside, trying to figure out what color you're supposed to be.
You are aware of yourself as White Light containing every Hue, every possibility of expression that belongs to the Whole Being you are.
The colors are moving, shimmering, reorganizing as the Story progresses.
And you remain Whole through every movement.
You can be quiet and joyful.
You can be enthusiastic and serene.
You can be deeply comfortable and wonderfully adventurous.
You can love the familiar and delight in something entirely new.
You can change direction without declaring that the direction you enjoyed yesterday was a mistake.
You can discover a fresh interest without needing to explain why you weren't interested in it before.
And you can allow a familiar dream to come around the spiral again, this time revealing something you weren't previously aware of.
Because the spiral isn't a circle trapping you in the same Story.
It is Energy moving around, out, and up, with every turn offering a wider Perspective of the Whole.
And as you become aware of yourself this way, you notice something else.
There's no little separate version of you left behind on a previous turn, waiting to be retrieved.
Nothing you are needs to be gathered together through struggle.
The Whole already contains the Whole.
Everything that belongs to your Current Story is available to participate in the organization of that Story.
Here-and-Now.
You feel the comfort of that knowing.
The feeling of integration.
The stability of being fully yourself while the experience continues moving.
And suddenly you understand why the Goldilocks Zone is so wonderful.
Just Right isn't a place where Energy stops moving. It's the wonderful balance of fluidity and tactility, where movement can be enjoyed as experience.
You look toward the great golden spiral again.
The turns are still unfolding, and the little windows of potentiality are still shimmering.
But you no longer need to lean out of your chair trying to see every window at once.
There is something rather lovely about watching the next part of the Story become visible when it belongs.
You can be interested without being anxious.
Excited without being overwhelmed.
Comfortable without becoming stagnant.
And wonderfully curious without turning every curiosity into a list of things you're supposed to accomplish.
Just Energy.
Just Being.
Just Right.
Now, the Moon has moved a little higher, and the Porch seems to have grown even more beautiful.
Venus's soft pink and green Light is still shimmering among the stars. Mercury's chimes are singing quietly in the breeze, and the great golden spiral continues its gentle movement.
But the most wonderful thing about the view isn't something happening in the sky.
It's the recognition of the Being sitting here enjoying it.
You.
One Whole, complete Light Being.
A unique Perspective of the All.
An expression of Conscious Energy, fully participating in the emerging Story.
And because you are part of the Whole, the awareness that opened beneath this Moon doesn't have to disappear when the Moon moves on.
Another day, another season, another celestial arrangement, another Now.
You can return to the Porch whenever you wish to enjoy this Perspective.
Perhaps the doorway will be another Full Moon. Perhaps it will be a beautiful sunrise or the first stars of the evening.
Perhaps it will be the ocean calling your attention to the magnificent rhythm of waves moving toward the shore.
Or perhaps it will be nothing more complicated than the smell of fresh coffee, the sound of someone laughing, or a butterfly passing through the garden.
Something catches your attention.
And there is the invitation again.
How do I want to feel?
And with that question comes the wonderful recognition of the Whole Being you already are.
You can feel the comfort of Wholeness, the pleasure of your own unique expression, and the excitement of Story becoming perceptible in a way that feels Just Right.
You don't have to stand outside the Story and make it happen.
You are the Whole Being whose Story is emerging.
You don't have to hold the entire collective together by making everybody else behave a certain way.
You are authentically participating in the collective through your own unique Energy.
And you don't have to know every turn of the spiral before you can enjoy the one you're on.
Every Now brings another opportunity to experience the wonderful progression of Being.
From good to gooder.
The Porch grows quiet again.
The Moon is magnificent. The chocolates are still there, although someone seems to have made considerable progress with them, and Taurus looks entirely pleased with how the evening has unfolded.
And just imagine, after all that traveling among the stars, after seeing the beautiful ribbons of Energy and the endless spirals of Story, discovering that you never had to leave your own authentic Being to enjoy any of it.
You were Whole when you arrived.
You are Whole sitting here.
And you will be Whole in every Now that follows.
The Story can become more expansive. Your awareness can widen. The experience can become more delightful, more interesting, more beautifully aligned with the frequency of what you authentically are.
And all the while, the Whole Being is Being.
Not waiting to become enough.
Not making itself small so the world can be big.
Not asking yesterday to explain what tomorrow is allowed to be.
Just Conscious Energy, experiencing the magnificent Story of itself.
Now the little blue planet turns once more beneath the Moon, and you see all those beautiful Points of Light, all those unique Perspectives, each participating in the collective Story.
And among them is your own.
I AM.
I am Whole.
I am healthy, wealthy, and free in the Story I am enjoying and the possibilities I am welcoming.
I am loved, supported, and authentically Being, with room for every other Being to experience its own beautiful Story.
I am not waiting to become part of the All. I AM part of the All.
And there's a lovely feeling of serenity moving through it all.
A little excitement.
A little curiosity.
A wonderful sense of possibility.
And that extraordinary pleasure of knowing that the Story is already moving.
You take one more look across the Front Porch of the Milky Way.
The stars are still shining.
The planets are still dancing.
The spiral is still turning.
And there you are, enjoying your place in the Whole.
Nothing missing from the Being you are.
Nothing ordinary about the Story emerging.
And absolutely no reason to put off enjoying this beautiful Now.
Just Energy. Just Being. Just Right.
Just imagine that!
