What day is it?

Do you ask this question more than you used to?

If you’re like most people I know, including myself, you’ve found yourself asking this question more than you used to. What day is it? Some people find they lose days. One woman I know was very upset with herself because she thought it was Saturday when it was Sunday. She was angry at herself because she had one day less off work than she had planned for. Some people automatically think they are in the beginning stages of some sort of dementia while others just feel a bit lost. What is this about?

Here’s my theory. First of all, the planet is going through huge energetic changes that affect each person in different ways. The more sensitive we are, the more we feel the energetic changes and can learn to surf rather than resist them. Those less attuned might feel upset, angry, sad, or lost. Some of these folks start wars. Others engage in a lot of name-calling and are just plain rude. All we have to do is watch what’s going on in the world and it is pretty easy to see the various reactions to the energies. We are best advised to choose ours wisely.

Second, I think Covid19 has made changes we’re only beginning to discover and one of them relates to our sense of time. Before the pandemic and resulting shutdown, most of us had schedules that kept us moored. There was an underlying sense of daily order even for those who are chronically disorganized. When everything shut down, we lost that. No longer are we moored to Monday or Thursday the way we used to be. We’ve lost our inner chronological anchors.

This is a blessing and a curse. It’s a curse because sometimes we feel lost and out of sync wondering what day it is. It’s a blessing because it gives us the opportunity to practice mindfulness and groundedness in new ways and grow beyond the need to be mired in the minutiae of daily living.

We’re being given the opportunity to live in the now even when we’re not sure if now is Saturday or Sunday. The days of the week have become less important. What we do with those days and hours now takes precedence. A big help in adjusting to all of this is to keep and nurture our senses of humor and wonderment. No, you don’t have to miss meetings or appointments. Once we’re tuned into the larger energetic spaces, we’ll know when to be where and we’ll show up ready for right action, whatever that might be.

Here’s a little Three or Under video I made the other day.

Living in grace and ease,
