Transition…with a capital “T”!

Merriam-Websters Dictionary defines transition as: 1 a : passage from one state, stage, subject, or place to another : change b : a movement, development, or evolution from one form, stage, or style to another 2 a : a musical modulation b : a musical passage leading from one section of a piece to another 3 : an abrupt change in energy state or level (as of an atomic nucleus or a molecule) usually accompanied by loss or gain of a single quantum of energy.  

From an energy standpoint the 3rd seems to fit nicely! 🙂 When you change your energy state, you clear out energies that are not YOU and bring in more of your own energy…thus the loss AND gain of energy! You are indeed transforming and YES this energy shift can manifest in the physical at a molecular level! So….Are YOU going through a TRANSITION in your life? It could be moving, getting married, in a new relationship, breaking up, getting divorced, maybe a new job or letting go of an old job; Really any abrupt change that signals a major transition in your life qualifies here! It could even be that you are looking to make some sort of BIG change but you feel as if something is holding you back…. If you are going through or even thinking about a TRANSITION with a capital “T”? READ ON!!!!

 As we enter the year 2010 I’ve been receiving reading requests from people all over the world.  There seems to be a common thread to these requests and when this happens it always alerts me to pay extra attention! 🙂 The word I keep hearing is “TRANSITION”.  I’m getting the same request over and over…’I’m in a transition and I’d like help with the direction’. I’m also hearing that at some level what they are or were doing isn’t working and it’s time to take a “step” for themselves but are having difficulty taking that step. Now, in a reading I don’t tell you which way to go as you have freewill and the ability to change and create what you want, however I do look at the energies that may be getting in the way of you making your own decision with clarity and certainty. What I continue to see in these readings is that you KNOW which direction to take but don’t feel safe at some level. Fear can stop you in your tracks and the answer is to feel safe enough to move forward.  

What kind of fear am I talking about here? The fear is not a fear of the unknown as you may have thought. It is also not the fear about taking a leap of faith. In fact, I saw excitement and joy in and around each transition. I saw passion and wanting to take a step toward some amazing goals and creations! The pictures that were the most prevalent were those of letting go of the familiar. Of course you all know that when you are feeling comfortable and safe it can be a challenge to make change but what about when the energies you are familiar with are pain, hurt, punishment, invalidation or failure? What if you are so familiar with those energies and programming that although you don’t like how it feels, it’s a part of you? In effect they have in some way become your truth. In these fear pictures what I saw time and time again was that it was more comfortable to hold on to the pain, hurt, invalidation and punishment than to let go of it for fear that some other unfamiliar pain would take its place. Worse than that, WHAT IF ALL THE PAIN WAS REPLACED WITH SUCCESS & EASE!!!??? In all my years of reading, and indeed in my own personal journey, I’ve never looked at this particular side of the equation! What if you actually succeeded?

If you’ve spent your life, or any part of your life, hurting in your relationships, loving the “wrong” one, have money struggles, experiencing invalidation, punishment, or failure (I could go on with that but you get the gist), perhaps your view is that is that no matter what you do or how it’s going right now, that eventually it will all fall apart. Even when you are completely on board with your transition, there may be doubt in your mind. If you find yourself looking for the grey cloud in your silver lining so to speak, then in many ways those thoughts will bring about what you are thinking about. Any picture that gets stimulated and lights up your old pain will make you run for the hills! In other words you go back into those very familiar pictures. If the fear is too great, you may even stop yourself from  making the transition altogether! When you get yourself grounded and safe you can let go of those pain pictures and fill up your space with SUCCESS!!! BUT you have to let go of that all too familiar pain first! 🙂 In my experience when I look at the fear of success it’s really more a fear of going back to any of those old pains. 

It is interesting to me what I discovered in these readings. It may seem like a simple concept but  learning how to ground yourself and let go of whatever it is that hurts can literally transform you! It is perhaps a bit challenging as you are going through whatever pain is rearing its ugly head, but in the end you fill yourself up with and find….Validation! Success! Love! Safety! Freedom! Fill yourself up with whatever it is that you passionately desire and live your dream! 🙂 Why not take a moment right now to feel what it would be like to HAVE & LIVE all your deepest desires! What does it feel like? Look like? The more “stuff” you let go of, the more space you will have to bring in and fill up with your energy and all that you wish to create!

Just as the caterpillar spins a cocoon around himself for safety to make the transition of transforming into a butterfly, getting grounded and safe is your cocoon. I will share with you one of my favorite quotes which so applies to this blog:  “How does one become a butterfly? she asked. You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.” Hope for the Flowers  So….give up being a caterpillar! Let go of your old definitions! Let go of any comfortable pain! Then…SPREAD YOUR WINGS AND SOAR ON THE WINDS OF YOUR LIFE!

Are you waiting for Godot….?

waitingThis blog was inspired by several lovely women whom I’ve recently had the opportunity to read. These profound readings brought to mind the Samuel Beckett play, “Waiting for Godot”. “Waiting for Godot follows two days in the lives of a pair of men who divert themselves while they wait expectantly and unsuccessfully for someone named Godot to arrive. They claim him as an acquaintance but in fact hardly know him, admitting that they would not recognise him were they to see him. To occupy themselves, they eat, sleep, converse, argue, sing, play games, exercise, swap hats, and contemplate suicide — anything “to hold the terrible silence at bay”.  The play opens with the character Estragon struggling to remove his boot from his foot. Estragon eventually gives up, muttering, “Nothing to be done.” ( reprinted from Wikipedia) and thus, they spend the rest of their time “doing nothing” but waiting. I encourage you to Google the play as it is very thought provoking….That said, I was inspired by the readings AND the play…perhaps you will be too! 🙂

In the readings there seemed to be a theme that these women were “waiting” for something. In fact, each of these women validated that they were indeed “waiting” for the perfect moment, perfect relationship and to move forward at just the right time. As in the play they felt “Nothing to be done”  until everything lined up perfectly and matched exactly what  they had imagined. And so they did nothing but wait. I asked one woman if she knew what she was waiting FOR. Her answer was that she had always imagined a perfect life, with the perfect husband, the perfect family and to be perfectly happy.  She was waiting for perfection and in many ways invalidated or discounted anything that didn’t “match” that expectation of what it would look like.  In fact much of the time she couldn’t have the beautiful life she had already created for herself because it wasn’t the perfection she thought she was seeking. Again, “nothing to be done” but wait.

So is there somthing YOU are WAITING for? It could be a relationship, the perfect job,  the kids to go off to college so you can begin a new chapter in your life, for that perfect guy or woman to call, for someone to validate you. Are you waiting for ‘just the right time’? Those are just a few examples but you may have something else in mind. Now I ask you…what does whatever it is YOU are waiting for look like to you and is it what’s called a PERFECT PICTURE or ideal? You could actually have so much of your energy focused on the PERFECT that you have stopped creating and have little energy for anything else except your day-to-day “chores” and responsibilities! Have you stopped experiencing , allowing and living life in the present? Are you having what you already have? What might you have missed WHILE  you were waiting and focusing on that PERFECT PICTURE to manifest itself? It may be that the very thing or answer you are waiting for is right in front of you but your attention is somewhere else so you’ve missed it! The interesting thing is that it’s possible some of these PERFECT PICTURES that you so dearly hold on to AREN’T EVEN YOURS!

Of course you have dreams and imagine how you want your life to be.  BUT when you turn all of your focus and attention to matching something perfect, you can get a bit stuck. If you are WANTING in many ways it is like lacking something not to mention it ties up your energy! If your attention is focused on or actually IN someone else’s picture…say something your Mom wanted for you as an example, you are not even focusing on your own TRUTH.  When your energy is focused on or even caught up in a picture it’s difficult to create, you can lose motivation or give up altogether!

Well guess what? When you pull your energy and focus out of the pictures you have MORE to create WITH!  ALLOW the process to just happen! When you are allowing there’s no need to be DOING. 🙂 Manifesting your dreams can be as simple as imagining the dream, letting it go and allowing it to come back to you. NO EFFORT! 🙂 You don’ t need to focus outside yourself ON or IN the picture.  You don’t have to wait for Jupiter to be aligned with Mars. All your answers are within that beautiful, creative, BRILLIANT, loving YOU! Look inside yourself to find your PASSION. What YOU really dream of! It may be different from what think you SHOULD be doing, or what you always thought you WOULD be doing! It’s about BEing:-)

You have the ability and power to change your life by bringing your very essence home, so to speak. Much of what you need to do is SIMPLY bring your attention back to you and be in present time. Call back your energy from the pictures! I know it seems simple and it really is…your intent goes a long way!  Notice how it feels as you fill up with YOUR ENERGY. When your own very personal, unique energy is in your body you vibrate and shine brightly.  Your motivation comes back, you see possibilities where you thought none existed and all the things you were waiting for will begin to appear in present time. Waiting for something implies the future yet creating  happens in the here and now. So what are you waiting for? Look inside yourself! Meditate! Instead of waiting at a bus stop, passing the time, waiting for some sort of perfection focus on the feeling of YOU within YOU! Focus on how good it will FEEL when your dreams become reality! Take a moment right now, create the intent to call back all your energy and fill up with it! Just for fun repeat after me: ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO ME! 🙂
