Lesson 186: Do You Know Your True Self...

Along the way we forget our true selves. As a child we have dreams and goals that don’t seem unattainable because we hold that innocence that allows us to have such high hopes. As we grow older and integrate ourselves into the world, not only are we faced with certain realities but self-doubt, fears as well as doubt from others projecting their fears onto you, start to flourish in our lives. I believe these things aren’t intentional but just how society is built. As we learn in our surroundings and from those around us, pursuing our best interests aren’t always attainable when you have to work, to have a roof over your head and to eat, and somehow you lack the time to follow your dreams. Sometimes I believe working hard to save money is also something you have to do to really pursue your dreams on the side. I think we somehow get lost in amongst all this pressure in getting a job that we lose ourselves and our true self along the way.

I wanted to explore witchcraft and any form of spiritual connection to the other side when I was in high school. I bought oracle cards and used them, and also bought a tarot deck and didn’t know how to use those. Then I met my then boyfriend who said because we were Catholic we didn’t believe in all that (in reference to witchcraft), I foolishly listened and didn’t pursue it any further. I think that was the first step in losing my true self.

Here I am 16ish years later, finally being woken up to what I truly want to do in my life and I have never felt better! I had to think about what I wanted to pursue in my life through interests and hobbies. As I started to think about what I wanted as a child and teenager but didn’t have the confidence to follow through, I decided to do them now at 33. I don’t think it’s too late to follow your dreams. I now practise a way of life I want to lead and doors of opportunity have opened wide. I am now going to start working as a tarot reader for a witch shop here in Melbourne and look to starting my own spiritual practise. I think my true self is coming to the surface and it took some time to come about, but I’m glad that it has. I don’t want to neglect what I truly want to do in life and I’m not turning back.

Lesson 105: Check In WEEK 15 - Raising the Frequency

This week has all about releasing, building and understanding simple truths.

I especially needed a reminder that what we put out in the world is what we attract. If we’re always in a negative mindset, then that’s what we are always going to see – the bad in things, the bad in people, get angry at little things. This week has taught me that we can always take small steps to raise our vibration into positive environments. Just imagining yourself as the best version you want to be, noting the attributes to that and working towards it, really sets things into motion. We can be whatever we want to if we work hard for it.

There was talk about worthiness. I think the list I made of all the things I see the best version of myself integrates worthiness. I think if I know all these positive things I want to be and work towards it, then I become worthy of that. I believe the message from the lesson is that we’re always worthy, but I disagree. I think nothing comes from nothing but something comes out of hard work. You can’t sit around lazy taking no action and deem yourself as worthy of something. That’s just my opinion anyway. I think it will work out if I remain consistent in my efforts.

Lesson 103: Your Best Self

“It’s simple. Your life is how you see it. No one can beat you at being you.”

— Joel Osteen

Today we are to write down all the words that describe our best self.  From there, focus attention to t for the day and without any apology.

My words:

·         Energetic

·         Unapologetic

·         Lively

·         Caring

·         Friendly

·         Nice

·         Patient

·         Loving

·         Adventurous

·         Fearless

·         Unworried

·         Empowered

·         Creative

·         Strong

·         Enriched

·         Enthusiastic

·         Fulfilled

There are probably a lot more words but then I feel they would be much of the same as the above. Today I will focus on being more energetic since I’ve felt drained 1 week ago. I was using a clear quartz crystal to do this for me this week and I felt good. I forgot to put it on today so I am on my own.

I will feed off the energy of the sun and just be my best self. It has actually made me wonder why we don’t just live the best versions of ourselves all the time. Maybe that is the lesson. Nothing stopping us from being all these things we want to be!
