Many experts have shared meaningful thoughts on the cosmic influences during this magical Libra season. October is my month, and I am always so grateful for what has unfolded throughout the year as I begin my retrospective practices. As I mentioned, we are guided to carefully see and listen to the orchestration presented right before us. We’ve increasingly witnessed the value of authentic relationships and what we learn, receive, and give daily.
Firstly, we can genuinely listen to our hearts with a sincere and honest mindset. This practice may require a consistent cleansing and purification of our filters in order to truly recognize our own messages, which is why it is a practice.
As some of you know, I worked in luxury hospitality for 20 years and know far too well what it's like to put on what I describe as 'the guest face' to ensure everyone around me had an exceptional experience that included an exclusive feast to the senses. I must say, this is all super great and very important for many people. It’s so good to treat ourselves sometimes, right? It’s quite the opposite when falsity becomes a prison.
With time, though, I started to experience that form was not so interesting to me anymore. I became more fascinated by meaningful conversations without shying away from true, honest feedback, all in an effort to uncover more layers of who we are, curious about why we’re so imbalanced as a collective. Aside from this, I became focused on understanding why my thoughts and emotions made me so uncomfortable, affecting my physical well-being. Of course, I know now that my guidance system and my innate yearning for balance pushed me to experiences that showed me there is absolutely nothing to fear and nothing to fix and that self-discovery is the real purpose in our life.
There is no better time than now to free ourselves from the restrictions of the small mind. Sometimes, we may need a nice, healthy burst of extreme emotions to fully circulate and liberate us from mental prisons. We often shy away from misperceived discomfort out of form - falling outside the lines of proper conduct, whatever that means. The authentic, genuine, and most fulfilling conversations with ourselves offer us a gateway to greater connections, meaningful and profound awakenings, mental and emotional freedom, and the opening into our true selves.
If it’s not in your current routine, try to practice becoming quiet and sitting with yourself. Be silent, rest the voice, and listen. The strength to sit with what I call the 'bad commercials' in the head-brain will infuse your whole being, but first, the mind of the body must feel the sincere and honest commitment to take responsibility for wanting a more profound connection with your own essence. This is presence as a sense perception. It's a natural talent we carry throughout all-time. We're simply out of practice, consumed by mental body functions.
After catching a glimpse of so much goodness we hold inside, it's tough to return to pretending to live. Self-observation can guide us in nurturing the promise of expanding consciousness. It is not a setback when we experience the perceived 'going back' and wanting to conform just to please others; it may simply mean we need to uncover more and ask ourselves more targeted questions. Deliberately wanting the blindfold shatters the heart-mind. This phenomenon has been shown to me as beads of light sailing away from our fields, hovering in the outermost layers of the cosmic mind rooting for us, coordinating events, people, places, and things to help us find our way back home - the holy grail of the soul-spirit complex.
Live with an open heart toward yourself first. Honor your feelings. Diligently and regularly cleanse all of your filters so you can listen and see the authentic messages of the soul and spirit. As you start to emit more light, the external world will reflect the beauty that you are. We are the fractal hologram, but we underestimate our magical nature.
Focus on restoring trust and dynamic balance as flowing through life is a more natural and healthy way to flourish.
Thank you for reading thus far.
Be well and find time to be quiet today.
