“The more we speed up, the more reality slows us down. However, circumstances prevent us from retreating.”~Leo Horoscope by Jeff Lawler

On my journey of healing I seek to find answers in all that I see and experience. Lately I’ve looked at the energy of those dreams I wish to manifest and the “fantasies” or illusions which hold my attention and take up the space where my REAL dreams could manifest IF there was a space for them. As I read the words from my horoscope (quoted above) it occurred to me what a great answer they hold.

In spirit there is no time or space and during this time of rapid shifting of energies, it may feel like reality is slowing us down or nothing is happening. We may be feeling stuck, stagnant or as if for every two steps forward we are pulled four steps back. Let me assure you nothing is further from the truth! There is truth in the words “the more we speed up, the more reality slows us down” and I don’t know about you but I’ve felt the effect of those words for some time. Everything is in motion, I feel like I’m moving forward then WHAMO the energy hits and it feels as if wasn’t going anywhere after all or more to the point, it feels like I was yanked back to square one. I’m sure at one time or another you have experienced your own version of what I described.

Is ‘reality’ really slowing you down?

As with all things to do with energy and healing there are several explanations for what you are feeling. The meaning for each of us will be completely different. One person might be experiencing control energy. For another it might mean there is more to heal before they can take their step. Regardless of the meaning it’s important to know what is really happening; You are growing and changing as spirit which knows no time yet your body exists in time and needs time to catch up! It’s not that you’re slowing down as much as you are incorporating and integrating the spiritual changes into your body. When you feel a slow down or you get hit with a massive growth period as more energy clears there is often a tendency to go into resistance to the slow down itself. It’s important to remember that any time you go into resistance you really will slow the process and possibly get stuck in it.

Go With the Flow!

Time is an illusion created by man. What’s the rush? If you are in a place of feeling like you’re not moving but you are meditating, releasing, taking the steps to heal, and grow and expand as spirit with the intent of bringing it into the body; Instead of focusing on the delay, shift your focus to the small things that are moving you toward manifesting your goal. Shift your focus to the space you are creating for yourself with all the release. Allow the growth period that comes along with any and all growth to simply BE. Notice it without resistance and begin validating yourself for the steps you are taking. That small shift in focus helps to clear the resistance to any delay.

When you are doing spiritual work you cannot take back or retreat from what you put in motion. It doesn’t always feel good but know this; The moment you find that uncomfortable place you are in EXACTLY the right place to heal it and create space for your “reality” to change. Is it reality really slowing you down or are you in a growth period? Is your reality really reality or merely an illusion of time?~Shine Your Light Debbie

“There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.”~Albert Einstein

Does a miracle change things by the notion that it appears and “poof” everything changes or is it a matter of acting on the miracle that presented itself? Is it “enough” that you recognized the miracle or will you take action with the knowledge that an amazing opportunity just opened a door for you and all you need do is act upon it by simply taking a step forward to walk through the door?

There’s no better time to reflect upon miracles, spirit and freedom than this holy week of Passover and Easter. From the miracle of the parting of the Red Sea to the miracle of spirit appearing after death, this is a week to reflect upon what we actually DO with the miracles that occur in each of our lives.

It might be a thought, an opportunity or you just might have an epiphany which in an instant helps you change direction. After all aren’t those the miracles you pray for? An answer is just as much of a miracle as anything else if you’ve asked a question (or prayed for it) long enough. What you do with your miracle is up to you but first you must start to see those miracles and find freedom by making the impossible, possible with your choices.

Back in 1980 I was living in Israel on Kibbutz Ha’Ogen. During the time I was there I had the opportunity to part take of a Passover Seder on the Kibbutz. The Seder was very different from the one I experienced growing up. At the time I spoke semi-fluent hebrew and was struck at the core of my being when the words (loosely translated here) were “It is what we did for ourselves with the help of God’s miracles that brought us out of Egypt.” Wait a second! It wasn’t all about what “God did for us (‘us’ meaning the Jewish people) that brought us out of Egypt.”

It made so much sense to me. If the Red Sea parted but the people were too afraid to step forward and actually walk the path that was miraculously created the story of Exodus would be very different. In fact the story of Exodus might not exist at all. Can you imagine if the people said “ok God, you parted the sea, cool trick. Now what? Can you tele-port me to the other side.” I realized back then that if you don’t act on miracles or opportunities or the answers to your prayers you will still be in a place of waiting for miracles, opportunities or your prayers to be answered. You need to act upon the miracles presented to you at any given moment and in many ways, acting upon your miracles is another miracle!

The definition of a miracle is that which cannot be scientifically explained or otherwise attributable to the “laws of nature” but who of us has not experienced or seen some sort of miracle? The birth of a baby, the seeds sprouting in spring, or waking up in the morning after a devastating storm when you thought you would surely parish. The fact that you are a divine spirit and that you made the choice to live in a human body is a miracle. The sun rising and setting is a miracle.

So as in the opening Einstein quote; “There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.” Each day presents you with miracles and perhaps the real miracle is the choice you have to act upon those miracles. It is YOU and what you choose to do for yourself when you are given a miracle that makes all the difference!~Shine Your Light Debbie
