I love this time of year for two reasons. 1. My daughter was born around this time. 2. I love the feeling of the completion of a cycle. Even if it’s just a page in a calendar. A new cycle begins.
I also follow the planetary cycles, cycles in nature and cycles in my own body and it’s timeline on earth. I even tattoo them on my body as a way of honoring cycles.
What I always rely on is that the wheel turns. It is a constant. Acknowledgment, discernment, inquiry, empathy, creativity, reflection, care, are tools we are given to walk that wheel in growth.
When I find heart shaped objects out in the world it’s not because I’m walking around thinking about rainbows and unicorns – although I deeply love both of those and think of them often – it’s because I’m usually in deep thought about what is troubling me or the planet or dear friends and family. Sometimes, it’s times of complete loss, fear, and sadness. Sometimes, it’s a moment when I’m having a conversation with somebody about old “stuff”. Rarely, when I’m thinking about “rainbows” and “unicorns”.
Those moments of dark clouds and monsters instead of rainbows and unicorns are moments that we have such extraordinary power to connect with our higher guidance, source, great spirit, nature wisdoms. All of those helping, supportive, forces that live in the unseen world (sometimes seen !) are there to help. And that includes our own higher self.
For some it’s seeing number sequences such as 11:11 and 12:12 and others. Noticing a billboard that has a message only you could understand. There are many ways that communication with Guidance manifests.
1st step is acknowledgement – give thanks when that moment happens. This will build and support the connection between you and your higher guidance and the cycles we move through.
Acknowledge that we move in and out of moments of happiness and sadness and that we are never alone.
May you find messages of love and support throughout the year. ~~Blessings Be~~
