Where is your soul guiding you?

Can you feel it?

The calling of your soul?

Your gifts guiding you home?

How beautiful and perfect you are?

What you have to offer is more than experience and expertise, more than passing tests, more than external validation.

The curriculum is etched in the evolution of your soul. Your qualifications live in your authenticity. Your offerings are the vibration of your spirit.

Can you feel it? The call to blaze your own trail, forge a new path, show the world what you have to offer?

The old ways are diminishing. They will grasp, cling, try to prove their relevance — but this new world is cracking open the light within. Their teachings guided us here, but now it’s up to us to create a new paradigm.

We’re all here because we have something important and unique to offer the world, which can only be found within.

Can you feel it? Where is your soul guiding you?

 
Aquarius musings
 
83799810_2690128097744385_2572259070375362560_o.jpg

Aquarius. Fixed air.

A hurricane can’t be controlled, and rarely will it allow itself to be predictable. Without being seen, it surges through, sweeping away the steady and familiar.

This all-encompassing air sees surface projections as merely accessories — a glamour covering up the truth. The masks you wear, the boarded windows and blockades may give you a sense of security, but they are no match for the air’s power. It can touch and affect everything around you, but you can’t see or touch it. You can’t move or change it. Air is everything and nothing at the same time. It is your thoughts, your words, the subtlety of your energy and vibration. And, like an unstoppable force of wind, these can also cause destruction if not harnessed carefully.

Have you seen what the air has seen? Have you felt what it feels? Beliefs and doctrine are simple and incomplete compared to the mysteries that exist beyond day-to-day life and beyond the planet. Fall into this knowing for just a moment and you’ll discover a world of possibility, a rabbit hole of truth, a deep dive into curriculum only known by a few.

But be prepared, because the air is not afraid to uproot anything that gets in the way of truth.

 
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.

Self-mastery
 
83591485_2683230528434142_4800147276410388480_o.jpg

True expertise is self-mastery.

Self-mastery is devotion and self-inquiry that evolves into deep understanding and embodiment.

An embodied teacher isn’t seeking devotees and copies. A teacher arrives to guide you on this path of self-mastery. To open the doorway to your inner teacher so that you can share your gifts and unique ways of perceiving with the world.

This doesn’t involve a set of rules or regurgitated disciplines. Sometimes you have to put down the books, the naysayers, the deities, the tools, and the structures in order to remember that YOU ALREADY KNOW. Yes, you already know. Anyone that tells you otherwise is afraid of losing their power and control.

Awakening is a self-guided journey of discovery, and the door is wide open.

Welcome to Aquarius season. 😉

 
Change is freedom
 
83308726_2676770512413477_1994380588022235136_o.jpg

Life has a constant impermanence, an ebb and flow.

Nature and its seasons move through cycles — a wheel of fortune, death, change, growth.

And we, being of nature, move through the same cycles.

There’s no such thing as being truly comfortable, because change is always inevitable. Change is a part of life. Change IS life. Change is freedom.

Fighting transformation creates disharmony and suffering. But if you accept the cycles of your life, you will find purpose. You will heal.

We are not here to be comfortable. We are here to contribute to humanity, the planet, and its cycles. To affect those around us. To live our purpose. To be free. To serve.

Imagine how beautiful our world could be if we all remembered that love brought us here,

and choosing love will always lead the way.

 
Whole and Complete
 
82547775_2674929425930919_2994252895836176384_o.jpg

My soul is complete,
Whole and integrated.
Not a fragment of two
Or yearning for the half.
I am both shadow and light
The moon and the sun
The leaves and the roots.
I create from the one flow.
Co-creating with Divinity,
She is me, and I am her.
She is all that lives within.
I am not seeking God
From gurus or altered realities.
The All is where I am.
Every polarity
And universal truth
exist in me.
I am Eternal Love
Whole and complete.

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. 😘

 
Ready for the great work

Do you want to show the universe that you’re ready for the great work?

Bring your ALL to the here and now.

Small commitments and acts of devotion transform into big manifestations.

Holding to your word and intentions will invite expansive opportunities for growth.

Every small act, every interaction, every time you show up, you show your readiness.

There are no shortcuts when the great work is involved.

No elevated insight or high-rise trip will lay the path for you. You are the builder laying down the bricks. When each one is set in place through your devotion, the path — that you built — becomes yours to walk on. With each drop of sweat and grit that it takes to build the foundation, a spirit helper joins your cause.

When you leave, seeking some answer outside of yourself, there is no one left to lay the path.

The visions and possibilities are endless, yes, but which ones will you work for? Which ones will you show up for?

Are you running from the one truth just waiting for your signal?

When you’re on your knees in devotion, are you expecting to receive, or are you expecting to SERVE?

How are you using your divine gifts to empower others?

How will you show up today?

Key words for the year: trust, forgiveness, clarity, consequence, decisions, personal power, freedom, shadow

Trust your power.
This is the year to move closer in alignment with your highest self. But you can’t achieve — truly — by proving you’re the best, or knowing the most, or succeeding over others. You win by becoming and embodying your true, authentic self.

Trust the process.
The journey isn’t always supposed to be easy. We didn’t come here for easy. Many people will experience a layer of transformation, like shedding a layer of skin or clothing. As this new layer sheds, you’ll begin to feel lighter, perhaps freer. You’ll see and experience things in new ways. But don’t rush the process. Move through the lessons with patience and learn from them.

Forgive.
2019 may have felt heavy and immovable at times, but this was a catalyst year that ushered in many situations, people, and experiences to shift your reality. Some are mirrors — reflections of what’s possible, or reflecting where there are opportunities for change. Some are lessons here to teach you how to love, in ways beyond your previous layers of understanding. Remember, love doesn’t seek to gain from anyone or anything. Love seeks to lift the other.

There may be a number of opportunities and decisions that could alter the course of your life. The key to remaining steady for these decisions and changes is regulation. Regulate emotional responses, habits, behavior. Bring more awareness to the every day, rather than staying in autopilot. But don’t worry too much about what’s right/wrong and please don’t look backwards with regret. Things will move along no matter what. The sun will continue to rise in the east and set in the west.

 
As I love you
 
80970619_2642033469220515_7393073123823714304_o.jpg

Can you love yourself
Exactly as you are?
Can you wipe away the tears of pain
When you were not enough
Or too much?
Can you see your beauty
As clearly as the imperfections?
Can you see yourself
As I see you?

Will you allow the fear of rejection
To keep you from true intimacy?
Will you allow the past to shame you
Into complacency?
Will you tear down the barriers
To vulnerability?

Can you surrender control
And let the mother in
To hold you
The father
To guide you?
Can you love yourself
As I love you?

 
Discomfort to Creation
 
81036879_2640109819412880_865886916069818368_o.jpg

Capricorn. Cardinal Earth. This is the earth of creation, formed from the energy of awakening. This is how our landscapes are created. These are the wonders of the world, birthed from the ground to be a witness and to be witnessed.

And how does earth form? How do the mountains burst from within the core? How does the surface crack open? How do the canyons mold and deepen, creating portals into rock?

First, the earth must experience the discomfort of movement and change. The fire underneath the surface creates heat and turmoil. Energy and pressure from stagnancy create a breaking away of attachment. Emotions like water form deep grooves and patterns of character.

In order to birth something so beautiful, to surge from the ground, to create something where there was nothing, we begin with discomfort. And the discomfort turns into pressure, and the pressure becomes action, and the action becomes creation.

A Capricorn stellium in our current cosmic blueprint is indeed uncomfortable. We are being asked to follow the path of discomfort to creation. What needs to change? What fires are burning within? What patterns keep grinding, and where is evolution possible?

Every mountain once had to rise to meet the air. It may not be predictable above the surface, but it’s the only way to grow.
