You are your own guru

You are your own teacher.

You have everything you need.

Never let anyone tell you that they hold the secrets to your awakening. Those secrets are yours. Let me repeat. You are the key to your awakening.

You do not need to worship at the feet of another human for salvation. You are your salvation. Bow to yourself. Worship yourself.

No one has the right or any spirit-/god-given authority to tell you how to live your life, what you should practice, or — and most importantly — who you are. Those are answers only found on the self-guided journey.

And here’s my personal (and perhaps unpopular) opinion.

Every time you surrender your inner authority to follow another human, you are telling the universe that you don’t have faith in your own abilities. It’s muddy. It’s uncertain. It’s the past. It’s unoriginal. The age of guru worship is over. Looking at an image of someone else won’t bring you closer to God, but looking within will.

This Aquarian age has provided us with unlimited resources! Infinite teachings and a wealth of empowering heart-centered teachers are available, and you get to decide what/who resonates. Learn the teachings, practice them, teach them, live them on YOUR own authority.

Imagine if every one of us harnessed our own inner power and shared it with the world — from our own perspectives, from our own intuitions, from our own channeled teachings.

The secret to being a pure and clear channel is to be your own authority. To choose your teachers, not because they have a special power over you, but because they are guiding you home to yourself. To trust yourself as a teacher... it’s why we’re all here. It’s what this Aquarian age is all about. This is how we evolve.

These are exciting times.

Things are moving quickly and destiny is arriving at full speed. This is a very karmic time. What have you been doing with all of the gifts and resources available to you? Clear seeing and deeper intuition is opening up to so many, so it’s going to be difficult for those who hide behind facades, manipulation, or lies. We are all being seen. And this is a good thing.

Everything you have been working to create will start to manifest — and this is good news for those of us who have been working to bring our gifts and offerings into the world. There are bigger forces working behind the scenes, portals opening, and seeds of inspiration finding their creative potential. Play close attention to your thoughts, actions, and intentions. Everything has powerful manifestation power right now. Frequencies are accelerating.

Now is the time to use all of your resources and knowledge to care for your vessel — body and home. Edit and fine tune how you are caring for yourself within your primary environment.

Leave behind energies and frequencies that seek to drain, rather than create. Use your keen and increasing vision to see through manipulative powers. Stay in YOUR power and your gifts. Don’t be afraid of being sovereign and independent when it comes to your creative potential. You have everything you need.

 
New moon/lunar new year in Aquarius: channeled message for the collective

I keep being shown a grid-like web of how we’re all connected in this Aquarian age. The network is so vast, the information so available, and the inner flames within all of us continue to grow and expand. Your unique energetic signature and gifts contain a key to unlocking and expanding this grid of awakening.

No longer are the wisdom teachings available to just a few. The trailblazing teachers who launched the Aquarian age made them all available to us. So many keys have been discovered. So many doors have been unlocked for everyone to access higher knowing.

We’re also being called to help redefine the definitions of success. The old formula worked for a while, but now we can see that it’s possible to do what you love, to dive into what you’re passionate about, and be successful. Exactly two years ago I mustered up enough self-worth to leave a comfortable, high-paying job and focus on my passions. And I say “self-worth,” because that’s what it was. It was having enough confidence in myself to believe that I had something to offer, and that I wouldn’t be punished by ditching the “formula.” I felt worthy enough not to sacrifice my happiness for a paycheck. (Spoiler alert: it all worked out.) And it really doesn’t matter what your passions are. If you study them enough and devote your life force to them, your passions will lead to your purpose.

This moon cycle might require some alone time in self-reflection to ground your energy and develop some daily rituals for success and well-being. Perhaps you want to devote extra time to your interests and passion projects. I highly recommend less screen time, turning off the news, and eliminating distractions as much as possible. Where does your energy want to go when it’s not being influenced by the external noise? Let your mind deprogram and free itself from the old fear-based structures that want to keep you trapped in the formula.

Because the world needs everything you have to offer.

 
Light of love
 

Love doesn’t care about the surface-layer projections.

It doesn’t live in empty words or fantasies.

It can’t be found under mountains of expectation or in dark caves of promise without empathy.

It is already around you, within you, in the arms of those who will always be there.

The only thing love seeks for the table is you. It only wants you to be happy. It isn’t asking for anything in return.

Love wants you to see the purest vibration of itself (yourself) in every facet of your being — which is perfection.

And may the light of love always guide you in that direction.

We are the visionaries we’ve been waiting for. We have felt it for a while: the old paradigms shifting, the need for structure dissipating, the emotional gut feeling that a better way is possible. For so long, we tuned out that inner voice — avoiding it by staying busy and distracted, allowing ourselves to engage in the matrix’s tools of manipulation and deceit that keep us trapped in energies of fear and shame.

It’s hard to reason with the ego when the old ways become so ingrained. Many people will resist these shifts and hang on to their familiar ways with sharpness and force. But once we awaken to our true nature, those beliefs fall away with less and less resistance. Through the lens of love, we see through the illusions that hold us back.

As the feminine Shakti uncoils and rises, we become the visionaries. And she doesn’t follow your rules. 😘

 
Jupiter in Capricorn

Today (12/2/19) the expansive planet Jupiter moves into the sign of Capricorn. Jupiter transits last for about a year, and I personally love the idea of Jupiter hanging out in Cap for a while. This happens to be my natal Jupiter placement (the only significant earth I have in my chart), and if you were born in 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, or 2007, then you most likely have this placement also.

Pluto and Saturn have been hanging out in Capricorn for quite a while, highlighting areas of responsibility and power struggles — so Jupiter making his fiery and combustible entrance feels like much-needed energy in these heavy times. The reason I love Jupiter in Capricorn is because it helps us do the work, stay focused, and devote to a higher purpose. It can provide sustained success and achievement in just about anything, as long as it’s aligned with your true essence. Jupiter in Capricorn natives generally have a strong sense of self and aren’t easily swayed off course.

I wouldn’t normally associate the fiery King of Wands with Capricorn, but he is Jupiter’s entrance — the potent combination of fire and earth — driven, purposeful, successful, and a master of creative expression. I’m happy he jumped out of my deck this morning so that we can reflect on and embody his energy.

What are you hoping to master in 2020?

 
Reflections on Scorpio Season

Scorpio uncovers the true identity beneath the mask. It navigates the deepest and heaviest waters. This intensity certainly doesn’t make Scorpio season easy, but it is through this transformational power that we discover the truth.

We tend to associate change with heaviness. Either we aim to release the burdens we carry or we feel that transformation comes with burdens. But what if the burdens are simply a blindfold keeping us hidden in a false identity or sense of safety? By keeping our eyes closed to the truth of who we are, we create the heaviness that keeps us stuck. Change (death/rebirth) doesn’t have to mean drastic reconfiguration or sacrifice. All we need to do is release the false stories and open our eyes. Show our real face to the world.

I tend to make big decisions during Scorpio season, but not necessarily because of a redirect. This fixed, powerful, and highly psychic energy simply doesn’t leave space for complacency. We may not want to see the truth, but it’s there just the same. Staying blind to it only increases the intensity and heaviness.

The season starts off with a new moon in Scorpio on Sunday, opposite Uranus. This is a highly unpredictable and impulsive configuration that may just rip the blindfold right off. But it doesn’t need to if we choose to do the work ourselves. I’m not going to lie, I’m a little bit nervous about traveling on this day because of the shock nature of the transit, but I have faith in my decisions aligning with the highest good. And spending Scorpio season and Samhain in magical Britain is absolutely following the call of my heart. ❤️
