Day 24: Putting together the Pieces / by Chanti Tacoronte-Perez

"Once you detach yourself from your grievances, however justified they might be, and you abide within the perspective of your Miracle Angle, you will find yourself embracing the gift of life and living it more fully.” — Rod Stryker  

For the next two days you will continue the work of creating your three-dimensional talisman, to redirect your resistance. If you are new to this process of making something with your hands, you may feel a similar resistance just thinking about where to start. There really isn’t a specific way to start, other than laying out all that you have gathered on a table and allowing the image to filter through your body into your hands to choose the objects that will create the image. 

At times this creative work becomes a challenging passage because its nature is to move thatresistant energy that may be lingering within you to give it a physical shape outside of you. However great that may sound, it then provides you no reason NOT to move towards your sankalpa. 

Let’s look at the Miracle Angle one more time, and put it into practice as we create this talisman. A Miracle Angle finds the positive perspective in a painful situation. When you find it, there will be less or no suffering — a sign that you have reshaped your perspective. If you are still suffering, you either haven’t found it or haven’t embraced it. There is always more than one way to look at a situation, we need to give ourselves permission to do so.
