Oracle for October 2014: Wisdom
Oracle for October: Wisdom
by Darity Wesley
Wisdom – The energies and directions for the month of October are evolving around wisdom. Do you have it? Do you know you have it? Do you think you have to be old to have it? Have you even wondered about it? Well, it has come up as our spiritual practice for the month of October. Closing down the last quarter of this year of Breakdowns and Breakthroughs…do read on…
Wisdom is a word bandied about a lot, I think. Most folks assign it to the elderly or to those over a certain age; but truth be told, wisdom is not an age-related concept. It is a state-of-being concept. While more folks over 50 think there is no wisdom in any age younger than that age. Folks who think that are really unaware of what wisdom is and its power to be unleashed if you are paying attention. And we are, right?
As we know, the Oracle always likes to look at how a word is defined in the dictionary because it gives us a foundation to build an understanding of what our practices are this month with more clarity than just thinking we know what the word means. It is always important to not go by words we don’t know the meaning of. That’s how we learn new words and build our vocabulary.
So, seeking our quest for a definition of wisdom, the first choice was Webster’s II New Riverside Dictionary. There, wisdom is defined as: Insightful understanding of what is true, right, enduring. Also “native good judgment.” When one is wise one has awareness and discernment. See, nothing in its definition is age related. It sounds like something that we are and do. You are reading this Oracle, right? Do you get a feeling about what “Insightful” means? If Wisdom is insightful, understand that we should know that insightful is defined as: “Having or showing a deep understanding, perceptive.” We can certainly see how Wisdom then, being insightful with good judgment, plays into the conclusion of the various practices that we have worked on this year.
