The Meaning of Isa

It can be hard to see what is truly going on when Isa is showing up. The Seeker is often confused, perhaps they have seen too much or too much of the same thing (snow blindness). Perhaps they can’t see the clear ice on the road, the most dangerous ice there is. The world view of the seeker is out of shape when Isa is showing up. They need to see more clearly. They need to challenge their fears. Perhaps what the Seeker really needs to do is to explore their creativity. Remember, Ice is unique and artistic. It creates shapes and it can be shaped as well. It is art done by nature. And we can participate. Isa can be a sign that the Seeker needs to use their energy to create. To do this, they must make room for their creativity. Too much stillness or passivity can be draining as well. When Isa is showing up, the Seeker is being guided to new territory. They need to expand on their experiences. In decisions about love, have a cool head, but a warm heart.
