Get Savvy

I understand in some circles the
word savvy is slang, but let’s get savvy and exalt our perceptive, compassionate
nature meant for us and those we have chosen to surround us.
Lots of people are savvy, that is, street smart, and, depending on whom
they talk with, they presume to hide their savvier side because it implies
shrewdness: undermining another for profitable gains. Through sheer will,
intelligence, and mistaken authority exhibited by results of mental depression,
some savvy people learn how easy it is to control peoples’ choices
by projecting insinuations and illusions as facts.
Do you feel threatened by the darkness and the heaviness in the paragraph
just above? The sorts of savvy strategies expressed above are not what
this article is about; savvy is about staying awake to and becoming comfortable
with our body’s feelings and messages as we have learned to intuit
their meanings.
Here’s a simple exercise for experimenting with intentions and
listening for our body’s feeling responses while shopping in the
grocery store.
Focus on the heart in your chest while looking at the tomatoes, and ask,
‘Is that what I want?’ It has been my experience as I exercise
query that the body responds with a slight warmth in the chest for yes,
or a slight heaviness or disgust for no. Sometimes, I feel no response
whatsoever, and I ask again; if still no response, I move on to the next
thing. Simple.
I trust the physical responses; I am no longer amazed with that exercise,
and neither do I take it for granted. As simple as an awareness of our
breathing, we constantly intuit.
If, for whatever reasons, you have repressed your savvy, nurturing capabilities;
if you have repressed your quick comprehension of happenings around you,
then consider this an invitation to open the door, and come out of the
closet in whatever way that seems appropriate for you.
These are historic times for observing humans’ changes of consciousness.
As we move further into this decade of colossal revelations, compassionate,
intelligent, nurturing, savvy Earthlings will speak their common sense
and educated guesses when nudged by their feelings. Listeners will have
already been prepared for truth, whatever truth happens to be at that
moment.
It is boggling when we consider the universal elegance unfolding global
events. We get savvy because we are feeling and witnessing a sublime revelation
of long held illusions’ suppressions.
Our constant curiosity
is key
to watching what’s being created.
