Hello
Beautiful People,
I
know it has been a long time since I wrote a full Energy Thoughts Update. I have been offering Quick Updates here and
there, and a message each day on social media, but I haven't done one of these
in awhile. This morning I had the time
to sit down and write what is happening now.
I want to express my gratitude to everyone who shares my work and likes
what I am doing, I truly appreciate you. I love writing these because quite honestly
there is always information available, I just don't always have time. I hope to make more time for writing in my
future. Onto the update.....
We are just coming off a weekend of the Scorpio Full Moon. This energy coming in pushes us forward to embrace the gifts of renewal of strength and courage as we are ready to move toward our dreams and goals.
Mercury
Retrograde's shadow period is finally letting go of its grip on our life, I
don't know about you, but the last two weeks during the Mercury Retrograde
period so much schedule shifting/changes happened for me and I feel now we are
on the tail end of it with some bumps and bruises to show for it. I
actually have to say that I have been excessively more tired than normal and
feel like I have battle scars to prove that I have done the spiritual,
emotional, mental and physical work the last few months. Of course, I am still
in the recovery times after the Flu Virus wreaked havoc in my life; and the
virus has lingered on. But I don't
think it is the Flu Virus that is making me tired, I think it is the constant
healing/light infusion that I have been downloading that is creating
opportunities for rest as my body works to catch up to my spiritual, emotional
and mental shifts taking place within my DNA.
By the way, that is true for all of you too--the only difference may be
that some are more aware of what is happening while others may not be.
We entered
2018 with this vast amount of energy shift toward the light. The light
continues to build on our planet, increasingly the light quotient daily and will continue until we reach mass
consciousness shift. When will that be,
you ask. I was hoping yesterday. hahaha Seriously
though, Spirit is certainly trying to move us forward into the direction of our
soul's path. It is like we came into incarnation this lifetime with a
blueprint of what role we are supposed to play in the ascension of Gaia
(Earth's Spiritual Name), and then coffee, or some other comforting drink, got
poured all over it; and now we are arriving at the point where we are just
about finished soaking it up carefully with towels, hanging the blueprint on
the proverbial clothesline to dry so we can see it our blueprint more
clearly. And if you have been living in the Northeastern part of the
United States and other parts of the world that have been getting pummeled with
ridiculous weather extremes, you are probably just about now, if not sooner,
asking, where's the sun? I mean this
quite literally, and figuratively. Where
is the light? We need to have the light
come out (read: come together). The
light is needed and it needs to be more visible (read: needs to be easier to
find one another, and no I am not accepting those that pretend on the surface
when it is comfortable to be the light, I am talking about the warriors, the
ones that stand in their truth despite all that is happening). Then, Spirit reminds me of what we may be
forgetting is that perhaps we need those special glasses that come with age and
wisdom, meaning we need to be at the right age and point in our journey for our
awakening. This thought alone makes me a little crazy because our
Timelines have been shaken up, trampled upon, revamped and new ones have
appeared; and yet, we are still asking when.
I feel the
last three weeks have reflected a massive change within myself not only on how
I view the energy going forward, but on how I have been experiencing it and
using it. As Mercury prepared to go
direct, the planet Saturn decided it was time to show and begin its Retrograde
motion. What does that mean for all of
us? Is it over some of you may be
hoping. Well, Saturn is here to help you
explore the core parts of yourself that bring up discomfort, fear, and more
importantly, require you to heal/clear/release them to get to the next place. (Read:
Core lessons you have no choice, but to face and deal with. It is kind of like in
the game of Monopoly, when the card says: Do Not Pass and do not collect $200.)
Oh yes, Saturn is the mixer of the pot of
thoughts/feelings/emotions/dramas/traumas that make a not-so-happy-meal, but
sets you up to know when something is good; like your empowerment to use all
the tools in your spiritual toolbox that you have garnered over this journey to
create the life you want to be living.
With that being said, Saturn will
kindly give you plenty of opportunities, especially if you miss any, as it will
be in retrograde for the next 6 months.
Yes, there
are other planetary influences happening too, but I am not an astrologer these
are just some insights into what is happening.
I know you all think this is crazy, when will it ever end? I hear you.
Sometimes, I sit here and twiddling my thumbs, thinking to myself, will
it be today? Will my family get it?
Will my twinflame follow his truth, the good news is, he does know what
it is, but when and what will he do with it? Will our world ever stop fighting about stupid
things and look at the bigger picture of what we need to do to relieve the old
regime to replace it with light? Then
out of nowhere, I meet someone, speak to someone and in conversation I get to
experience their awakening/knowing, I realize
that, "woah, this denotes huge change; and not only with regard to the
person I am speaking to--with regard to everything I am wondering about.
The surprises on this journey are endless, but even more than that the twists
and turns, could be enjoyable, if we could remember that is all part of the
plan. How do we remember?
Our mission
now is to simply be present in our journey and one way is through surrender. In the last few weeks, I have found that the word surrender
has taken on a new meaning for me. No, the definition has not changed, it is
still what it says in a dictionary, but I have applied it differently than I
have learned or have been taught it means.
Often, the energy of defeat or giving up is worrisome to say the least,
but in the Spiritual sense, I think it has a different intention. (This
is particularly important for twinflames to hear.)
Recently, I
kept getting the message to surrender, so have several of my fellow spiritual friends;
and we did, or so we thought. We assumed
it was to surrender to our journey and it turns out it was and it wasn't. I discovered that Spirit meant let go.
Let of what you ask? (okay, so maybe you didn't ask, but I'm gonna tell
you anyway.) We are in ta time of great
change, and along with it is a time of great power to manifest that which we
want to create. Remember dear hearts, in
order to create, things need to come down--do you see the world around you,
perhaps within you and those around you coming down? That is how we begin to rebuild/recreate/manifest
anew. So what does all this have to do
with surrendering? When we want to manifest something, we attach
not only to the outcome, but to the way(s) in which we get there or not and
that attachment is what causing a great deal of interference. Spirit is saying to surrender to the journey
of manifestation. This is where the real
work comes in, learning how to let go of the how, the why, the when, the where,
and even sometimes the what of what it is we are trying to create. When the
word surrender comes in to play, many of us subconsciously try to take more
control of the things in our life, rather than loosen our grips/hopes/attachments. It is
in learning to let go, that you
surrender to complete trust not only with yourself, but in the universe to hear
your wish and command it as so. I have always done this with simple things like
my trip to Hawaii, my dining room table,
and pretty much every other thing I have manifested on my journey; but I
also recognize, that for me there was very little to no attachment to these
things and they just showed up; almost miraculously, but my guides like to
remind me that it is simply that I am remember that I am a master at
manifesting. This is why I am preparing to teach Manifestation more and more,
stay on the lookout for my upcoming classes in May and June where I will offer an
opportunity to learn this wisdom more fully.
Yes, it will require work, but not the work you think you must do.
The one
message Spirit keeps conveying is: "Stop taking yourselves so
seriously." It is meant to be a
joyous ride through the blueprint, which allowed alternate routes to get where
we need to be. Just like in the game
Monopoly there are other ways to get where you are going, sometimes there are
bleeps in the path and other times there are leaps in your path. Ask yourself, am I ready to jump? This astrological set up is the universe
helping you take a deep breath and leap forward. The
karmic clearing Saturn is providing can be viewed a bleep for some and for
others as that opportunity to leap.
Either way, my words of wisdom are just BE; be you in the moment, be
present in the moment always and in all ways; above all, have fun and find your
joy.
Namaste,
EstaRa
