Conversations with my Soul | ‘You ARE facing the right direction’ | November 2021

The Challenge

It is hard sometimes to be patient but often that is what is being called for. Patience and presence. Especially during times of unease and when you feel burdened or overwhelmed. Perhaps you are feeling a bit tired lately (I have been) and this lack of sun and limited daylight is not helping.

‘You have a great gift in being able to see the potential of things before they exist’, this gift enables you to contribute to realising potential and to ultimately raise vibrations - to call in more light.

But yes, when you feel that things are not progressing the way you want them to or at the pace you would like, it does feel frustrating, stagnant and stuck and it can be tiring.

But the heart does know, it calls for, speaks to and highlights what is for your highest good and some say also for the good of those around you (the collective). If you doubt this – it is easy to doubt this {hands up} - maybe we just ask it to, and then listen. The heart will speak to you.

What is your heart saying to you? 

The challenge is to ‘keep holding the vision’, (even if it aches?…). To not lose faith and believe that what your heart is calling for IS achievable. In fact, it is already in motion.

The Message

The message is one of growth and a change in perspective, to improve your relationships. ‘Open your heart and mind and see things from a different point of view’. I think because life involves others. 

I often feel I need others to get things done. What I want for myself and what I want to accomplish involves other people. And so perhaps there is a need to remember to seek understanding during times of dis-ease, confusion, frustration or whatever undesired feeling might come up as we walk on our paths. Starting with one thing that sounds true – everyone wants to be loved, valued and respected. We are not so different.

‘We are all innocent children looking to be seen, understood and cherished’. 

It is our differences that create conflict and while ‘conflict highlights separation…’ by seeing our similarities, ‘…it can also result in unity and growth’. Everyone is and can only do the best they can, given who they are in that moment, and in conflict we are all reacting from the same place, which is often from a wounded place. Perhaps the need is to feel safe and held.

Do not take things personally, try to see the innocence of everyone involved (including yourself).‘Soften your heart, drop your defences enough to see things from a different perspective’.

Grow closer (in conflict) by recognising the similarities rather than the differences’.

Next Action

‘Say yes to change’. That ache might actually be a gentle whisper that has now turned into a louder calling, signalling that now is the time to act, take a different action or let the change complete itself. Is there a learning you are not recognising? What are you resisting? Do you need to be more flexible? What are you holding on to?

‘Life bends for the courageous and courageous is what you are being called to be’.

Your season is now. Take a deep breath and jump right in. Whatever it is. Do you need to ‘let yourself be seen...own what you are...trust the timing of your true nature’? You need to show yourself to, ‘little by little, draw in those that are meant for you’. 

What is it you wanted to do, achieve and/or contribute to? You might not feel ready, don’t wait for permission, just do it, ‘seek adventure’. 

A Final Thought

It might always be like this for you. Because you are empathetic, you will tend to take in more of the world around you. Cultivating a practice of staying present and grounded can help. Try to be here and now, connected to your body and yourself and rooted in the knowing that you can do this, you are good enough and you deserve great things.

Let love lead and let your light shine brightly
