~ Creating your reality from the inside out ~
/People say all the time that we create our reality. This is easy to believe until something undesired happens. Then for most people the idea collapses, and they go into thoughts like; ‘How and why did I create this ‘bad’ thing?’, ‘I must be being tested’, ‘I can never win’ ‘The cards are stacked against me’, ‘FML’ , or ‘What did I do to deserve this?’
It is high time for us to realize that the people and circumstances of our life, and the things that seem to happen ‘to’ us, are actually situations that our soul has guided us to, so that we could grow beyond what we have previously known.
Each life circumstance is neutral, even the ones that we perceive as bad, like getting sick, losing our job, a car accident or a break up. The list is endless. All of these situations are things that seem to happen to us, but what if our soul guided us into these circumstances in order to raise our consciousness in the most expedient way possible? Further, what if every single thing we see before us was a divine and purposeful part of our soul plan?
We have been approaching a new paradigm for the past 30 years as we ascend our consciousness from The Piscean Age of Duality to the Unity Age of Aquarius. Life is no longer a This or That proposition. The old paradigm of opposites (Duality) is shifting to the paradigm of inclusion (Unity). So instead of This or That, we now have Yes, And.
The creative source is all inclusive and intelligent, and it will orchestrate our life circumstances at every opportunity to facilitate our soul’s growth in the most efficient way possible - often that turns out to look like a heartbreaking life circumstance.
Yes, this situation may be painful at the moment, what would be revealed if we could resist going into denial, fear, blame, rejection or victimhood? Based on our response, the situation could either get much worse, or it could lead us to a place we could have found no other way. You know, the old “When God slams a door, look for the open window” idea.
True mastery is remaining neutral in all circumstances, no matter how they appear. By doing this, new avenues open for solutions. If we immediately go into reaction or victimhood, we choose a path, and rule out all the ways the situation could end up being for our benefit. And because we live in a benevolent, conscious universe, it is always to our benefit, otherwise it would not be happening.
I’m not implying that we should not feel the feelings that arise when we experience painful situations. We should acknowledge our feelings, but we can’t dwell there or make ourselves victims over it. Yes, this is really awful, I’m devastated that my lover suddenly left my life, it's the LAST thing that I wanted. And, I know that the creative source of all that is, loves me and wants my happiness and fulfilment. I know I’ve done the best I could. In my heart, I have asked for a healthy relationship that has space for my soul’s growth and this must be the most direct way for me to get there. What if I could believe this heartbreaking situation is the best way for me to find it?
Sometimes it's so painful in the moment, we can’t see how this could work for our benefit. This is OK, don’t bypass the feelings, just ask for help. And when we ask, the creative source of all that is, responds with guidance. We just have to be in a place to recieve it. It's that simple. We were not meant to take the journey of being human completely cut off from our creative source (!) Source is ever present on the inner planes, and in the world around us, and when we tune in consistently, we will begin to hear it and feel it ever more clearly.
We have help all around us from spirit, we can dialog with our guides and the creative source at any time, we just need to ask for help and listen. The answer will come quietly in our own hearts and subtle urges to move in one direction or another. Sometimes, actually much of the time, the answer is something our ego will consider to be inconvenient or risky. Like taking a nap instead of reaching for a cup of coffee to keep going. Or taking time out for self care like body work, yoga or talking with a therapist. Sitting with or expressing our true feelings instead of numbing them. The ‘harder’ thing we are guided to do, is often the thing we need to do most!
The answer to our heart questions will also come through things that are spoken to us by friends and even complete strangers and interactions with animals. Source is always communicating! Are we expecting answers and tuning in? Or are we numbing out and missing the answers all around us?
It's up to us to know and to act.
Here are some journal prompts and questions to ask on the inner planes that lead us into creation instead of reaction.
What do I need most at this moment?
What if my soul guided me and the players in this drama to facilitate my highest healing?
What have I learned about myself through this exercise in pain?
How has it brought out the best in me?
How has it brought out the worst?
What if I decide not to fight against what I cannot change and control, and I choose to trust where I am being guided?
What possibilities could open for me then?
If I accept this ending or loss, what new possibilities does it open for me?
How can I invest in myself instead of another?
What kind of therapy, books, classes, videos would help me learn from this situation?
That’s all I have for today. If you have made it this far, I thank you for reading on! I support you in your self care and your healing journey. I know if you are ready to truly heal, you have all the tools you need at your fingertips. Start today, I dare you!
Funny note, as I was finishing this blog, I remembered that there is a bible verse about these ideas, I searched for it and realized that it was Romans 8:28 —- August 28 is my birthday and I never made the connection until just now (!) The connection being, how I live my life, my birthday and this bible verse! This single idea spoken in this specific bible verse, has been the catalyst for my highest growth since I began my journey. This is a great example of source communicting, it always is for those with eyes to see and ears to hear.
