Storms Are Coming

Wow so much going on the planets, sun flares, hatred, possible wars, confusion, really unsettling on Earth. This time that we live in right now is so uncertain. I feel it everywhere I go. The people and the atmosphere is not good. I have personally had many disruptions in my family life, in my heart space, in my friend dynamics. This is a time I feel we have to keep our spiritual space clear and we need to keep in prayer and not fall into the hatred and uncertainty around us. We are living in uncertain times for sure. The more we stay grounded and bring the love into our heart space and out into our world, the easier it is to navigate with a clear head. I was a very reactive and emotional person most of my life. I am sensitive to the emotions of others, whether they be hidden or right in my face. I grew up learning to anticipate what could happen before it did so I could possibly come up with some plan to stay safe. I have learned the hard way over the years that is not the best approach. Yes stay alert, stay safe, stay prepared, but don’t lose yourself in the what ifs. The what ifs will always be there and some will come to fruition and others will not. But with the unnecessary worry and planning for all things we lose ourselves and ultimately our power. We all have been given a sense of knowing. A connection with a higher power guides and helps us. When we use our discernment and have faith that we are being guided the overwhelm isn’t as intense. I like to write down my fears and then write the possible outcomes and what I can actually control and what I can’t. I know for me a lot of times I think I can control an outcome by my many different defense mechanisms for each possible outcome. This has just caused worry, confusion, anger and disappointment in myself. I am not the one ultimately in charge. I can prepare what I need to for protection from an outcome. A few examples, get food, candles, generator, blankets, flashlight, electronics charged before a storm. Then you have to just wait for the storm and see what damage it brings. There are different ways to wait. We can wait for the storm by sitting at the window looking out in anticipation. We can choose to eat and take a nap. We can choose to lay down and be frozen in fear. We can choose to watch a movie eat junk food and laugh. We can choose to move the furniture and dance. So many options, none of which will change the direction or the ferocity of the storm. But each will affect the effect the storm has on us. This is true in every area of our life. I have 3 major storms on the their way in my life right now. I have to sit with the reality of each one and choose my strategy wisely. Some of these storms have visited before. Some of these storm are regular occurrences . Some of these storms I have changes my approach over the years. But mostly I have learned I have way more power than my fear would allow me to believe. I can overcome and survive the storms better now as I have gotten older and had more experience. Whatever the storm or storms in your life right now. The things that keep you up at night, the fears that paralyze you, the thoughts that overwhelm your mind. Please just stop for a minute and evaluate, look into your heart and mind to look at the many choices you have. Never for a minute are we completely stuck with only one choice that someone else has put into our mind. Never are we having to be a slave to our fear of the unknown. You are far more powerful than you think. Your intuition and discernment will guide and direct you if you ask. Believe in yourself, your truth and the love you carry within you and out into the world. Choose something different today and see how your outcome can change.
