I dunno about you, but the last few days and weeks have been super emotional and intense.
What with so many astrological and spiritual energetic shifts happening (new moons, full moons, eclipses, solar flares, mercury going retro) it had felt like I've been in a total body, no-holds-barred extreme combat fight at times.
From the beginning of the week my muscles had been so tense and my whole body ached as if I'd been punched and pummelled all over. Even the joints. So I looked in my trusty Louise Hay app and resonated with the explanation of where most of the pain was coming from, but couldn't understand why it was all happening at the same time.
After reading a few articles and posts on Facebook and various other networks I sat with my body, and asked the question "what's going on? Why do I feel so tense? What is this all about?" The response I got was in alignment with some of the articles I had read.
During this season of harvest and transition from light to dark our energetic bodies are deeply impacting out physcal ones. The full moon is a powerful time to release old crap that had been stored in the body, and lots of people I know have been ill with nausea, bad stomachs or headaches.
It's a time to let go of those old fears. It's time to release those lingering belies that life is no for you. It's time to step into a season of receiving the best life has to offer.
"Labour" pains are our bodies indication that something new and life changing is coming and coming fast. There's not many things more whole-life-changing than having a baby.
Be open to embrace these changes, and boldly step into your present moment. Breathing deeply into each "contraction" with faith that it will be over soon, and the outcome will be this beautiful "being" of love.
In Birmingham there has been quite a lot of rain over the last few days, which had come as a bit of a shock to the system after a long and sunny summer. But I adore Autumn, and welcome the changes it heralds.
Although it had been rainy it has also been sunny, which of course means rainbows. And there have been a rainbow every day for about three days. Symbolic methinks. Do you agree?
For as long as I recall, but more so since embarking on my quest to find and fall in love with my true self I have loved rainbows.
Rainbows are awesome because:
- In order to create a rainbow there must be millions if not billions of variables that have to be in the perfect place at exactly the right time in order to manifest I to something that is visible to the human eye, something of such Beauty
- They are the outcome of a storm, which are often perceived as bad things (not many people enjoy the rain
It feels like the rainbows of the last few days are a sign that good things are on the way, and a shift has happened in the spiritual readiness of the general public to embrace the larger part of themselves, and tap into the fullness of the possibilities of life.
We are here to live big lives, to embrace every aspect of ourselves, the "dark" and "light". It is only in so doing that we have any chance of becoming the spiritually and emotionally mature beings we are capable of being.
A few things you can do to navigate this transition:
- Take a long hot sea salt bath a couple times a week. If you have kids, indulge yourself and have a bath during the day while they're at school. Make time to pamper your physical body.
- Be gentle with your physIcal body. Many people on a "spiritual" path have a desire to transcend and leave this body for a "higher realm". When ee nurture our bodies we are treating them as the temple they are. The temple that houses our souls. Our God-Self. Some people who've travelled a lot often laugh when I say my body is my temple, because they've been to run down, crumbling ones in places like India. When I imagine a temple, I think of how those places would have been 100's of years ago. When the spirit was more sacred than money and objects. When connecting with God and Love was as natural as breathing.
- Breathe and let go. This has helped me so much in the last few weeks. To just keep breathing and asking myself if what I am thinking is true. To stop believing the lies ego is feeding and to connect with the truth of my True Self. In this space I get to choose. Do I choose love or fear? In each breath I get to choose love.
