Lesson 275: Open-Ended Queries

Following on from last week with the theme of knowing, there is an extension into this week. Rather than leaving yourself open from asking further questions, could you possibly turn it into an open ended statement? Examples below:

• "One thing from this menu that would nourish me right now is______"

• "One task that I can do that would help me feel more productive this morning is______"

• "A one-minute clearing exercise that would help me feel lighter (clearer, calmer) right now is______"

I think for my Monday, I was a bit absolute with a particular situation I wanted over and done with. Rather than asking myself what should I do? And should I do this?, I made a bold decision to just make my peace and go with it. I don’t really want to talk about the situation in detail as people may see this post, though what I did do was tell myself, okay I’m going to send this message and this will allow this situation to pass from this stand still. I did away with questioning it and allowed myself to release. It felt good after I did it and it allowed a decision to be made. What decision did you make today?

Day 274 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - When You Reach This Level...

Lesson 274: When You Reach This Level...

“When you reach this level of consciousness, you understand that we are dreaming the dream, and the dream arrives to us as “real”. This means you may begin to create your dream, should you choose. In fact, you already have.”

— Sara Wiseman

So, the life we are leading is what we have dreamed, though this doesn’t mean it stops and is ever evolving. I think it’s important to note that. We are the creators of our own lives. If we are not living the dream, then we can change it and shape our lives towards that.

Right now, I believe I am living my dreams. I think I haven’t finished living it and there is so much more to achieve, but I am definitely living my current dream. I may change how things pan out for my end game, and this is why I mentioned that it can evolve over time. You might have one idea in mind, but then it shapes itself and takes you down another path, and then your dream may change again. I think for me I’m living my life as a witch, I am spiritual, I am working on my business towards tarot reading for others and I will need to further read and research in order to write my own books. I am on my way to all these things and I do need focus. I can tell you that my dreams were very much different when I was younger. I wanted a family at 27 and a partner who wanted that too. I didn’t have a partner at that age who wanted those things so my dream changed and there was some acceptance of this other person’s needs. When we broke up, I needed to change in myself and learn to accept myself. I had different dreams for myself and that involved advancing my career. That was my focus so I did that. I changed companies and jobs, I tried food blogging for some time, there were moments I thought I could become a YouTube star on my own channel and I thought I should study music. I guess my point is, there are always moments when you will change your mind and your dream may slightly change, but it doesn’t stop you from living parts of that dream.

All I know is that I am the only person that can achieve what I set out for myself. My dreams are my own and I am the only person who can achieve them. Doesn’t matter if things go to plan because dreams can be warped into something else or something new.

Day 274 - A Year to Clear - Our Sixth Sense

Lesson 274: Our Sixth Sense

“I believe the Sixth Sense should be the first.”

— Sonia Choquette

New week equals a new these and this week is “Tuning Into Guidance”. I feel like this is a continuation of last week’s “Knowing” and following through on our instincts and what might be referred to out sixth sense. I think this week may just be about tuning into your own instincts and tapping more into what you already know. What might actually block us is all the mental or physical clutter in our lives, which stops us from accessing that knowing we all have inside of us. Will be good to see what lessons come out of the week. I think I listen to my intuition most of the time and I think I use it more than my other senses to be honest. I mean, it would have been a different story 2 years ago, but now, I just look at the world differently, so my actions follow suit. Will see if what comes about this week is what I already know.

Day 273 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - There Are Not Only Two States...

Lesson 273: There Are Not Only Two States...

…of the sacred and the mundane. It is said that it is all one state that is infinite within the fabric of time, space, dimensions, layers and Universe. Today we are to just open ourselves to this even if it’s just for 10 seconds – the concept of one state. Know that where ever you are in this moment is just perfect.

As I mentioned in the previous post, I definitely mix the mundane with the sacred. I just go about my day as if that is normal. I never thought about it all being one state, though I guess that makes sense now. I think about it as labels and why am I labelling something as sacred versus the other that is mundane. Maybe everything I do is just in it’s normal state. It’s like saying that the sacred is at a higher state than a mundane task but what if they are just as equally as important as the other?

I started practising writing down my achievements in a book every day. I write washing dishes as an achievement. I think it’s acknowledging those small wins but for sometimes, it’s a big task for another. I decided to do this to help with my depression because washing dishes was such a hard task for me during that time. I was so happy when I broke the cycle and told myself I could wash the dishes. Even though this seems like a mundane task, it was a HUGE achievement for me. I think everything that I do, whether it’s sacred or mundane, is a success. So maybe this practise was to show me that it’s all interconnected. Like literally everything we do is in these interweaved states that combine them as one. I feel like this can take a whole other philosophical approach and my brain does not want to go there tonight. I totally get what the lesson is but you could talk hours on it.

Lesson 273: Check In WEEK 39 - Knowing

I felt like this week was teaching me what to do when I didn’t know how to answer my question. It didn’t focus on intuition like I thought it would – trusting your own answers from within. I think initially it was good in telling me that if it feels right go with it and if it feels bad, then don’t, but I didn’t really think about what to do when I just didn’t have a feeling or an answer. If anything, the week clarified for me that you can definitely put questions on hold in order to get the right answer. Sometimes just putting it out in the Universe is all you need. I think it was good in learning that you don’t need to have the answer straight away and stepping aside might just be the trick to figuring it out.
