Oracle July 2010
Courage
by Darity Wesley
The energies and directions for the month of July evolve around courage, bravery, fortitude. There are two definitions of courage and both should be your focus for this month of July. Things are coming up fast and furious. These two definitions are: “Physical Courage” – courage in the face of threat, hardship, pain or death and “Moral Courage” – courage to act rightly in the face of unpopular attitudes, opposition, shame, scandal or discouragement. This is the month to have the courage to walk your own path, courage to be a spiritual warrior, courage to face your fears and do what needs to be done, courage to hold at the deepest level of who you really are, that All really is Well.

There is so much going on in our world, right now. Have you noticed? Auto accidents, many people leaving the planet. The planet itself is shaking it up. There is much fear, chaos and concern about everything that we deal with in our daily life: money, the future, our livelihoods, the state of the global economy, the Gulf oil spill, families, children – so many folks are spinning out! One thing after another as has not been seen ever before in this way.
Now, we all know there have always been changes afoot here on this planet, and, since change is really the only constant in the universe and, generally speaking, it is the scariest thing for humans to deal with, these transformational times are really a time to pull our courage to the forefront. Everything is changing! This is the time to learn to experience how you deal with change. Your courage in the face of change is an important component for you this month of July.
Courage in the face of all difficulties is about being intentional, conscious, strong in a deeply held or integrated belief, understanding or knowing that “This too shall pass,” that we give up the illusion of control, that we surrender to what is, that we allow it to be easy.
Fear and courage are two sides of the same coin and it is important this month that we acknowledge that sometimes we do reach the fear point. We don’t want to be all airy fairy, la te da and disrespect our feelings or pretend it is other than it really is because this acknowledgment that we have touched a fear point, gives us the ability to understand that we can process it and transmute it in a variety of ways based on your particular spiritual perspective. And in short order if you have a mind to. There are many tools to use and they are there in spiritual books, your spiritual community, with your support group, friends, family, your spirit guides, ascended masters and angels. It is for us to use these resources this month for they are the basis for our courage. And, don’t forget to breathe.
