What is love?
Maitreya puts it this way:
Love is the need within you to share with another person, no matter what sex, a closeness, and to give and receive affection. When love is in action it is demonstrated by both partners in the sharing of affection, kindness and consideration to each other. When one loves another, one does not criticize the other. You accept each other for the uniqueness that you are, two different beings who vibrate to a different tune. Even twins vibrate to a their own tune. All human beings are different to each other. Yet you try to make your partner like you, you cling in your relationships, and you may manipulate your partner to change. However when there is love, then you accept your partner for their difference, and do not criticize or try to change and manipulate. If you want to know love, then let go of your fear. Understand your partner IS different to you, they cannot be you, and you cannot be them. Accept their uniqueness, and if you cannot, then the partner is not for you. If this is so, move on so that you may experience happiness, and try to maintain friendship in the relationship that has ended. Love comes from the heart center, it is totally embracing, and for those who feel it, either from another human being or from the divine source, they truly know happiness. They also know love.
It is also important to love ourselves. It can be difficult for some people to truly love another without first loving themselves. There may be things we have not forgiven ourselves for or perhaps we hold a belief that we are not good enough. Until these insecurities and past actions are released, we find it hard to have peace in our hearts and be gentle with ourselves, loving who we are just because we ARE.
The next few months is a good time to look inward. The astrological configurations are aligned for just such an occurrence from now until the middle of July 2001. So whether you are ready or not, you may find in some way or another that you are a bit introspective and discover some part of yourself that could use some healing - forgiveness or release. No need to be afraid of the moment of discovery. Celebrate it as you celebrate spring! It is a time to clear it, wash it away and open the space for something new, thus more positive, to bloom.
MEDITATION:
When you come across something that you need to let go of, forgiveness of yourself, someone else, or a part of you that is wounded, this meditation may be helpful. After you have reached a quiet state, imagine yourself (or whomever or whatever) sitting across from you. Talk with this energy. Tell it how you feel or felt at the time. (This is similar to writing a letter that you never send, it just helps to clear out all the emotions). The energy may or may not communicate back to you in some form. After the exchange, tell this energy that you are letting this go, releasing the cord that has held you both together. You do not necessarily have to 'forgive' this energy, but you may if you wish. Before you cut the cord that is extending from your heart chakra to theirs, bless the energy. Then, cut the cord using imaginary scissors.
