Life Path # 7

 Life Path # 7

You are the searcher and the seeker of the truth. You have a clear and compelling sense of yourself as a spiritual being . As a result, your life path is devoted to investigations into the unknown, and finding the answers to the mysteries of life.

You are well-equipped to handle your task. You possess a fine mind; you are an analytical thinker, capable of great concentration and theoretical insight. You enjoy research, and putting the pieces of an intellectual puzzle together. Once you have enough pieces in place, you are capable of highly creative insight and practical solutions to problems. You enjoy your solitude and prefer to work alone. You need time to contemplate your ideas without the intrusion of other people's thoughts. You are a lone wolf, a person who lives by his own ideas and methods. As a result, close associations are difficult for you to form and keep, especially marriage. You need your space and privacy, which, when violated, can cause you great frustration and irritation. When your life is balanced, however, you are both charming and attractive. You can be the life of a party, and enjoy performing before an audience. You enjoy displaying your wit and knowledge, which makes you attractive to others, especially the opposite sex. But you have distinct limits. While you are generous in social situations, sharing your attention and energy freely, you are keenly aware of the need to "come off stage" and return to the solitude of your lair. You associate peace with the unobtrusive privacy of your world. Therefore, intimacy is difficult for you, because you guard your inner world like a mother lion does her cubs.

All this privacy and aloneness can cause isolation and loneliness, however. You can be aware of an emptiness in your life, a part of you that yearns for company and close companionship that may be unsatisfied. If isolation is brought to the extreme, you can become cynical and suspicious. You can develop hidden, selfish motives, which people may sense and may cause them discomfort around you. You must guard against becoming too withdrawn and independent, thus shutting out the love of others and keeping you from experiencing the true joy of friendship and close companionship. You must especially watch out for selfishness and egocentricity, thinking of yourself as the centre of the universe, the only person who really matters. Social contact gives you perspective on yourself and on life, while too much isolation can make you too narrow and even shut off from the rest of the world.

Secretly, you may feel jealous of the easy relationships formed by others; you may perceive others as less inhibited than you, or freer to express themselves. You may harshly criticize yourself for not being more gregarious, powerful, or capable of greater leadership. Your challenge in life is to maintain your independence without feeling isolated or ineffectual. You must hold fast to your unique view on the world, while at the same time being open to others and the knowledge they have to offer.

With your abilities to learn, analyse, seek out answers to life's important questions, you have the potential for enormous growth and success in life. By the time you reach middle age, you will radiate refinement and wisdom. Pythagoras loved the seven for its great spiritual potential.

A World Without Judgement

A World Without Judgement

Can you imagine a world without judgement? There wouldn’t be any wars, no need for jails, hate would be eliminated and Love would be the operating system we based our lives on instead of fear. Is it possible? YES!

Ok, so then if hate would be eliminated then how would there be a balance between light and dark, good an evil? Would it be necessary to “find that balance or would it just exist? Would our shadow side be something we needed to rectify or would it just be an accepted part of who we are? Would we still have the ability to recognize our ego and its purpose of control and the distortion of the connection between our innate being and our human form? Would we need to recognize that at all?

Judgement is an insidious concept on so many levels. It causes stress, physical and emotional pain as well as dividing us from each other. It blinds us to the fact that we are spiritual beings in human form who are all in perfect and divine order. Where and when did we start to judge ourselves? How did we get from being diving beings of Light to physical beings who can no longer see the magnificence within ourselves and others?

Judgement stepped in when we forgot how to be compassionate. Compassion is the polar opposite to judgement as fear is the polar opposite to Love. When we truly live from a place of Love and compassion we cannot judge anyone or anything. Love is unconditional. Love sees past the fear and allows us to treat each other with kindness and acceptance. Experiencing life from this perspective, there are no mistakes only lessons learned. There would be no betrayal because there would be no need for conditional acceptance. Parents would see their children as divine beings of creation instead of possessions that they had control over. Value systems would be appreciated and accepted so the need for war and violence would be non- entities. Although, some may contend that value systems are based on personal judgements, and I can see the validity in that.

To be able to create a world without judgment we would need to have a huge restructuring of life as we know it today, but it is possible. If we each took a look at what and who we are judging right in this very moment and re-evaluated the situation from a perspective of acceptance, compassion, and Love, the world would look quite different I believe.

This may be a rant or a heartfelt expression of compassion and empathy for those who are bound to the constructs of fear and judgement, or it may be a judgement about judgement, who’s to say any way?

Exponential Growth

Why do some people experience exponential growth as a painful experience?

The answer is resistance. Resistance is the greatest tool of the ego or as some call it the “self”. Through this, the ego reinforces that growth is unnecessary; that we are “just fine” right where we are. The ego or “self” is the master at thinking small. It would completely stifle our soul growth if we give it the power to do that. It uses the challenges that we face, due to the growth stage, as examples of the suffering we might face if we step out of the box. All of this misinformation that is sent into our energetic field causes a lowering of our personal vibration; which we then perceive as yet another failure. When in fact, it is not a mistake or failure it is merely another step in our evolutionary process of ascension.

When we take a step back and look that the situation at hand, we see that our soul already knows the final outcome and all is in perfect and divine order. We made choices, at soul level, before we were birthed on to this planet. These choices are recorded and held for us to access when we are at the vibrational frequency that is aligned with each new experience. Growth can be painful, but it need not be the cause of suffering. We choose to grow and expand. We can also choose to suffer. It is always, our choice.

In these moments of great change and exponential growth our best defence against the trials of the ego is meditation. In that quite space we can hear our Soul above the noise of the ego’s rambling and discern for ourselves what the next move is to be. Finding even just 20 minutes of time, to be still and quite, to allow the mind to discharge and disconnect from the everyday noise will provide greater focus and balance of thought and action. Realizing that the changes that are occurring around us are a direct reflection of our personal vibration is a magnificent window into the why and how of our current situation. This sacred space that we hold with our higher self is a gift to our human form.

Are you allowing yourself the space to grow . . . or are your falling into the traps of the ego? These traps look and sound like this.

1. The VICTIM - “I can’t believe they could do that to me!”

2. The QUITTER – “That’s ok, I wasn’t ready for that anyway.”

3. The UNWORTHY ONE – “I could never be all that.”

These are just some of the tricks that the ego uses to keep us believing that we are separate from our true and magnificent selves. Don’t be fooled. You are more powerful and more magnificent than you have ever imagined. You are a child of the Universe AND you are YOUnified with all that it is.

Shine On Brilliant Stars

What time is it?

Is there really ever a “right” time, a “wrong” time? If time doesn’t truly exist then why do we put such a value on it?

In the presence of time, we see the sun rise and set, our work day start and end, and we race against time to meet “deadlines”. This lends to judging ourselves harshly, creating negative space, and solidifies the illusion that we are here on this planet to work hard for less than the abundance that we truly deserve. We have chained ourselves to the watchtower and have taken ourselves out of the natural rhythm of the planet we live on.

In the absence of time, we still see the sun rise and set but without the constraints and pressures of this mechanism that we as humans have created. Without mechanical time, we live according to the passage of the seasons and our bodies ebb and flow with the energies that come and go through them. There is a natural and comforting feeling that we get when we align with Mother Earth’s heartbeat. The planets all still revolve and the birds and other animals all survive without a watch, so can we, we did so once upon a time.

Now, I know that there are some of you out there saying, “Well this is all nice and sounds warm and fuzzy, but VERY unproductive.” “How can I create an abundant and profitable life without time?” First of all, abundance comes in many forms, and you would be amazed at how much easier your day would flow if you stopped “racing against” time. Make it work for you. We are headed back to a complimentary existence. Mother Earth is teaching us some very harsh lessons right now. If we listen with our hearts and we begin to get back into the rhythm that she guides us with we will be able to not only heal ourselves but begin to help her heal as well.

Below are some practices to help you to get back into that natural flow.

1. Before you jump out of bed to the screeching of the alarm clock, give thanks for all of the incredible blessings in your life right now. Even if things aren’t exactly as you would have them at the moment, by giving thanks for what you do have Universe sees that you are open and accepting of more.

2. Stop throughout the day to take notice of the beauty around you. This will assist you in appreciating the essence of Mother Earth’s grandeur and this raises your personal vibration immensely.

3. Before you lay your head to rest at night, recognize the achievements you had during the day and how you were blessed by Gaia.

This experience here on Earth is to be cherished and savoured not rushed through and looked upon as a chore. We are only here for a very short while, enjoy the journey.
