A-A-U-U-M-M - The
OM mantra commonly used in meditation practices is also an amazing addition to Reiki and Shamanic Reiki meditation. Using OM in self-practices helps ground our bodies and connect our higher knowing with our physical human knowing. Feel the difference for yourself, in your next meditation practice.
This week and in the coming months, we are presented with an opportunity to become more aware of the aspects of self. By focusing on ourselves, we amplify our ability to bring harmony into our lives, while we embark on this venture of new beginnings. We spoke frequently in the last couple of months of this energy that the new year is bringing to help us prepare for the shift. More importantly to note, this shift will show up differently for each of us. Don’t be surprised, when comparing notes, if your experiences are different. Do recognize that everyone will be feeling major changes in some area of their life. Even though we share this same energy, we each have our own unique magical piece to work with. The question to ask is, “What is mine to do?”
This week, concentrate on connecting with the body and listening to its wisdom. What we are awakening to will be reflected through our chakras, our connection to human consciousness and the cosmos. It may show up through our intuition, higher learning, health, emotional intelligence, personal power, heart connection, creativity, and communication. This is the time to pay attention and hear what our next steps are as humanity moves into one of the most amazing times in history.
Harness some of the new moon energy this week to magnify the ability to hear what we are being called to create or experience…
If we have
been listening to our bodies and higher knowing throughout 2023, we should be perfectly positioned to take action toward our goals and visions for the new year. If not, we may be faced with more chaos and uncertainty on the horizon. Does that mean it’s too late to be aware and awaken into this new realm? No! There are still opportunities to connect and harness this time of growth. There is no right or wrong. If it’s our divine timing, or ours to do, we will know it. All you need to do is allow the whispers to be heard and choose to hear them. No one person or thing alone can change our course. But if you are called as part of the collective to make change, your time is now. Our path and our work was all chosen and decided by each of us before we were born. Each soul selected their journeys of how they would heal, grow, and understand, in this lifetime. The only obstacles or delays will be determined by how our ego influences our actions, and how we use our free will to make choices along the way. 2024 will present moments when we will need to decide which branches to grab on to, and what to let go of. This is the pathway so we can create the world that illuminates the love and beauty we are. Innately, we all know that it comes down to the moment we wake and decide to walk TheFool’s Journeyonce again.
A wise guide once told me that one solid brick at a time is all that is needed to lay a strong foundation and to get started. This first brick is the confidence and surety of what feels okay or safe for you. That one foundational piece will allow creativity and fun to flourish. Be patient and sure as you lay your bricks in 2024.
A big change for the coming year is that Pluto is moving into Aquarius, moving all of these possibilities into the 3D reality of this world. Are we finally bringing the dream into reality? What are we doing to walk our talk and intimately feel and be all that we can be? The new moon for this week of January 11, 2024, is an opportunity to remove clutter, and open up to receive our desires, through manifestation. This is an ongoing process to continue defining what we want in our living and working spaces. Use journaling to uncover true feelings, values and desires. Allow divine guidance to lead you to what you must do to show up and explore the world. Find the authentic self hidden in the shadows. Our divine feminine is ready for the big reveal. She is potent with enthusiasm to greet us with all the new possibilities.
Remember patience, and to do the best with what you have. Monitor thoughts and actions of judgment on self and others. Judgment cripples our self power and attracts more of the same energy. This can be the one thing you work on all year and that will be okay. It will take time to catch those judgments as they are deeply programmed into most of us and often go unnoticed. Be the observer and not the critic. Resist the urge to review your success and score it! Embrace the opportunity to wake each morning to a new day, with a fresh start and a new beginning. We have the knowledge and wisdom to make these changes, we only need to be woken up to our true magnificence! Imagine all that we have been and all that we shall become; harness this power to reclaim what is our birthright, no matter who we are. This can be accomplished in many ways. The question is, are you ready to hear your inner voice, lay another brick of your foundation and take the actions necessary to honor yourself in love, beauty, and wisdom? If so, those actions will become reflections that come back to create this earth’s new reality and enhance your own life experience. I leave this with you to ponder and explore, one day, one moment, one brick at a time - Enjoy!
Namaste
