Well. I'm early this month because there is so much going on and if you are not up with it, get yourselves there because this is the most exciting time in the history of the human race. I selectively read the news and find that the 60's have returned: a time when people have the courage to stand up for life, not for the corporations. We have people in Auckland, Britain, America protesting over the inequality between the rich and the poor. We find the Arab Spring where ordinary people are risking their lives to give the next generation control back by throwing out dictators. We find that Physicists are discovering how time travel happens with the neutrino that travels faster than light. Destitute people in Detroit through the crash of the U.S. car industry have take to gardening their city into life and started the first agri-city movement (watch the movie Urban Roots to find out what they did). We stand on the threshold of the New Humanity, and it must be lead by YOU! It doesn't matter where you are, or who you are, you need to be part of this any way you can for it wont come again in a hurry.
If you have fears, now is the time to challenge them. If you have psychological blockages, now is the time to move them and let the energy flow towards the new, because there is no going back. We cannot sit on our laurels and believe that life is going on as it always did and not suffer. The speed and intensity requires that we get excited about it and get in the flow of it or we will become increasingly confused. Don't try and think it through. Its bigger than all of us. Listen to your deeper knowing and ACT! You can do that on all levels. You can change what you eat, what you think, what you buy. You can change who you hang with, what you wear, what you read and how you read it. But change you must! Because what used to work isn't going to for much longer and the new is such an adventure you wont want to miss it.
So start small. Get informed. Selectively read the news. Educate yourselves about whats happening out there. Don't stay fixated on what the Corporations, private or government, want us to look at and believe. Or don't get caught up in the possible scenarios of doom. Look for yourself, and you will see the signs of a "Human Spring": and Spring always leads to Summer. And share what you learn. This wonderful thing called the internet, with all its corporate manipulation, is still the fastest and surest way of getting the message around 'quick'. We are truly united when we participate on whatever level we are capable of even, if that is only from your armchair..
We have had a difficult time for a while now. But the darkest hour is always before the dawn. I tell you whats going on for me, and many of you reply with whats going on for you, and I know it hasn't been easy. I am not promising that it isn't going to get worse before it gets better. There is a strong possibility that the economy as we know it is on the brink of total disintegration. But that will leave the way open for more sane ways of distributing what we have. More sane ways of developing ourselves without destroying everything we touch. And that will need to be done through connection and co-operation not competition and take-overs. The people of Detroit had to go through devastation financially to get to the point where some bright sparks decided to turn their urban wasteland into a new Eden. But 'don't despair' is what I am saying. Look at the bigger picture and stay focused on what is really going on underneath: a total overthrow of a dysfunctional way of life.
The indigenous people have always known about this Human Renaissance. They have been holding this knowledge for several thousand years and now they have opened it up for us. The Mayan Calendar, the Munay Ki Rites, The Hopi prophecies, the Promise of Waitaha, the Return of the Rainbow Warriors, the Return of the Rainbow Serpent. This is not the first paradigm shift we have known and it wont be the last, but this one is OURS: its on our watch in our time. Lets celebrate it and be part of it in any way we can. Find a way!
So yeah, we have a bit further to go, and some of us may not be around to see the final phases of it but we are all participating in the beginning of the final phases right now. Like the All Blacks before they go into a big match, they must be prepared and up-skill or they wont be equal to the task (not that I am into men beating the crap out of each other under any guise). So we too must up-skill, educate ourselves and prepare to take our place alongside each other as we walk towards this wonderful new time. You do not want to be left behind. It wouldn't be cool. So get involved on the local level and support those that are. Find out what you are capable of and do it: be it.
OK. That's my monthly rant. I am moving premises on the 14th so those of you that do work with me need to find out the new address if you don't know it before then. Now is also a really good time to refer people to me (or anyone) to move through their issues so that they can also be ready for the new. Here is a video clip you must watch. It had me in tears after about 60 seconds.

I also do a lot of information dissemination about whats happening on my facebook page. I will be giving a talk on 'The Myth of Time' at the Spiritualist Centre in South Dunedin on Sunday 27th November. Starts 7.00. If any of you have groups you would like me to talk at next year let me know. I am willing to talk to any group on anything that's applicable as long as it fits with my schedule. So give me plenty of time if possible. Next year I will be running more Munay Ki initiation workshop series's, and more Psychosynthesis courses if people want to learn. As we approach this new world its not a bad idea. Please put your name down as soon as you can so that I know when I have enough people to run them. Don't have the space to run any more this year.
Anyway, I hope you feel inspired to follow up on some of what I have talked about. Take care of yourselves and enjoy life. Blessings Jay!

Jay's Late August/September Newsletter
Well its way over due for my Aug newsletter. Its been a very busy month so forgive me. It feels to me like the energies of the planet are certainly putting their foot on the accelerator. People, myself included, have been having huge issues to works through as the weather continues to throw everything it's got at us. It's bringing up deep issues to be solved that we have spent years trying to avoid, and they take skill and trust to negotiate. But it is really worth while facing them full on and moving through the resistance. We all have resistance. Its a natural knee jerk reaction to pain. Sometimes however, the protective coating that was valuable as a child when we first encountered the hurt, was the only thing that got us through. Now as adults it's keeping us from seeing what, as empowered beings, we can do to heal. After all, whatever we are resisting isn't going to go away. It's the next stage on our journey towards healing and growth and the Universe needs us to take responsibility for our stuff so that not only we, but also the whole, can evolve into the new beings we have the potential to become...indeed the new species we have the potential to become. So it's no wonder that the pressure is on for us all. The Earth herself is on the threshold of change and renewal. She will do it with, or without us. So much better if she has us alongside to ease the transition, but we have to be willing.
Willingness is very important concept in Psychosynthesis. It's not just a state of mind but the actual mechanics of how choice is transferred into action on all levels. If you decide to lift your arm, you have to use your will to bring about that action, whether you are consciously aware of it or not. The more conscious we are of it, the more we can use it to assist ourselves to move through our resistance and out the other side into the new, whatever that looks like for us. Often we attach our will to others. Often they, with Society, encourage that. But if we do that, we are essentially becoming powerless, giving our personal power over to a parental figure to decide and take action for us. In that case we are most likely to end up with their idea of how our life should, look regardless of whether that meets our needs or not.
So many of us are in that position. We are angry and frustrated by the fact that our needs aren't getting met, but we believe someone else should make the decisions, yet again, to get us out of where we allowed them to take us to in the first place. And nothing changes until we reach crisis point. Then after the breakdown of the current circumstances, and often the subsequent blame, we start all over again. Eventually we either learn from the experience, how to take responsibility for our own choices , regardless of what others think or feel about that, or we hand our power over to someone else. When that happens we are surprised again that the same cycle repeats itself. Hopefully, as we age and experience this time and again we develope an aversion to the type of behavior that causes this cycle. And sometime not. It can take many lifetimes, or a few minutes, depending on our degree of commitment to holding on to our resistance, or letting it go. Fear causes resistance but blocks the movement out of fear into knowledge and growth. Its a catch 22. When people say wisely, but vaguely "Let go!" this is what they are talking about.
But the issue now is that on a galactic scale, evolution has sped up. We haven't got eons to do this in, if we are going to be part of those that lead the human race out of resistance and stagnation into a new way. The Earth requires us to put our money where our mouth is and to be quick about it. Hence the acceleration of issues for us to deal with. It is my prayer that you are moving through yours, if not comfortably, then at least consistently. As ,like you, I have just moved through a block of 'stuff', I can affirm once again to you that when the blockage clears, the energy flows freely and the new begins. Then we wonder what on Earth it was that was keeping us back in the old. If we only realised how much better the new always is, we would be falling over ourselves to get there. Blessings Sparrowhawk.
