‘Consider what takes place when one is listening to a piece of music. At a given moment a certain note is being played but a number of the previous notes are still “reverberating” in consciousness. Close attention will show that it is the simultaneous presence and activity of all these reverberations that is responsible for the immediately felt sense of movement, flow and continuity. ⁵

When we become more present, we turn our attention to the source rather than the object. The source is the interdependence of all things. We are then able to hear the music as opposed to focusing on unrelated notes. We are able to see how an incident does not just happen but emerges from the whole and contains within it the reverberations of the Field. The whole is reflected in the smallest microcosm, yet we can only pick up these reverberations from a state of presence. This then is the relationship between the allied energies of presence in South-East and unfolding in the North-West.

Becoming present to this unfolding can dramatically increase our creative potential for two reasons. First, we gain access to the invisible systems and cycles that have a profound effect upon our lives. Second, a vast source of new learning opens up to us as we seek to understand how the specific arises from the whole.
