Growing Pains

This shit hurts! But it also feels good to know you are growing. 

You can sustain the cold frost-bitten nights. The hot long dessert days with just enough cool to make you mad.  You have been free falling so long the leaf of faith has turned into a surfboard.  The place you are in is too small for who you are becoming. And who you are is still too small for who you are becoming. Where you are going you have never been, so the peace which passes all understanding is sometimes unnerving.  There is no logical way out of this place from anyone looking for a way out of what no longer fits.  Now you must literally imagine the way out.  The birthing process. The labor of visualization.  Believing is seeing. As you rest and allow in-between the contractions or tower moments, just as you begin to release your holding place constricts again and reminds you that you are not just resting you are becoming or being born again a.k.a. rebirth. We go through several births and rebirths to get closer to understanding the revolution of each level and learn from the lesson or rather the experience we came for.

Settle into the fact that there are no new lessons. Don’t believe me? Follow the patterns of your life.  The story will retell itself over, and over again. The details may change, the players are new, but the lesson is the same. This is why the rebirth process is so important.  We take a deeper dive into the same lesson if we choose to learn on a deeper level. Meaning we have went through all the stages of death, rebirth, surrender, and harvest for every revolution. Learned what we needed to love better first ourselves and then others. This is the work. To feel deeper and expand the heart wider to hold more compassion and empathy first for yourself and then others. 

Some practical magic ways to Grow with the flow as you are becoming:

1. Tap into nature.  Allow the universe to ground you and help you feel tethered to something, so you are not just going to fly away. 

2. Walking barefoot in the grass. (I know it’s cliché, but it is also true.)

3. Standing in Mountain pose is also a good grounding technique and if you love the sun face it like a sunflower and feel it charge you up. 

4. Aroma therapy is also grounding. Sents like Cedarwood, Sandalwood, & Frankincense.  Record what is coming up currently. Separate it into two categories: Let Go/ Let Flow- The shadow side may bring up some coping skills that served for a season but are now outdated.  Put those under "Let Go."  Your guides may bring new modalities that help you release to allow like breath work or an exercise class or an art class. Whatever brings you joy and peace put under “Let Flow”.  This way when the tower is crumbling you don’t forget the things that will keep you where you are longer, in labor pains or the things that help you hold your vibration for manifesting a successful delivery with as little trauma as possible in transition between worlds. 

5. The last piece of practical magic is your diet.  What you eat will work with you to keep your channel clear for you to have clarity on direction and instruction. The cleaner our diet the easier it is for your supernatural gifts can support you in the labor and delivery room.  Finally, drink lots of water and mind your business. 

   You got becoming to do.
