Sagittarius by Josephine Wall

Enter Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21). Has anyone ever noticed that when a fire sign comes into play, Mother Nature always stirs things up? Think about it: Aries brings rebirth through spring; Leo brings the peak of heat during summer; Sagittarius brings that first snowfall of winter (at least for those of us who are in a climate that gets snow). One may say that the snow that dances around the sky as the days get colder and the nights get longer reflects the Sagittarian’s adventurous spirit.

A few months ago, a friend of mine shared with me an amazing radio station that I cannot stop listening to. While at work or at home, I find that I am constantly listening to Hay House Radio. For those of you who want to give your regular dance stations a break - and are interested in something new and enlightening – I would definitely recommend that you give Hay House Radio a shot. At Hay House, you can tune-in to talk shows featuring popular Hay House authors and you are welcome to telephone the station for live “on-air” conversations with your favourite hosts. On top of that, each host has their own Facebook and Twitter page – as well as their own personal websites - that allows viewers to chat with the hosts and other people watching. Essentially, Hay House is like a big community connecting like-minded individuals interested in topics such as spirituality, health, astrology, and much more!

Some of my favourite shows include:

“Let yourself relax and breathe and be free and be joyous, and romp.” – Abraham

“You are a lover.  The larger part of you loves.  When you don’t love, you are not who you really are and there is a seperation that you can feel in your solar plexus that feels like hate or feels like anger.” – Abraham

Interesting:

I had a romantic situation arise this week that inspired an intense emotional reaction.  When presented with the opportunity, my first thought/feelings regarding it were very strong.

I began feeling what seemed like very negative emotion right away.  Something was telling me that this was not the direction I wanted to be going. I could easily feel that I was being guided toward a different decision.

The problem is at the time I just questioned  these thoughts/feelings, as opposed to welcoming them, and listening to the message they related wholeheartedly.

I felt I was being selfish and not who I really am, I felt full of fear and insecurity.

“That empty awful feeling that you call fear simply means, your thought is not in sync with who you are.” – Abraham

The truth is: I allowed this message – “Richard, you are not being yourself” – to fall on deaf ears and let those deaf ears provide a false sense of peace.

The person I am today knows when to say NO to what I was being offered by life – and for good reason.

Yesterday I was making a playlist for a friend and I had asked about including music from a certain artist.

He said:  “Whatever is in your heart, add!  Doubt means don’t.”

And I thought…

OMG!  I knew that.

Why didn’t I listen to my own doubts about this romantic situation this week?  They were so loud and clear!  But I fought them.  I thought it was me being out of the vortex of my well being.  It was my own inner guidance system and it was saying: “RUN!”

“Negative emotion means you have departed from who you are.” – Abraham

I hadn’t experienced this much prolonged activity outside of my vortex in recent memory.  I could have easily listened.  Made other plans for a time when they felt right.  Instead I pushed myself and in the direction of that which I do not want.

In a text message from my beautiful sister, Allysyn, this morning, she asked: “How are you feeling through all this?”

I honestly replied: “Doing well.  The hot embarrassed feeling has almost entirely left me.  I have learned that next time my body, mind, soul  are giving me a direction, I will directly succumb to its guidance.  I do feel free knowing that something or someone has been experienced that brought a lot of life giving contrast – gave birth to huge desire – and will never quite happen that way again.”

“Ride your own rocket into the vortex and imagine your own resolutions that your life experience has caused you to launch.” – Abraham

“Stand before it there is no beginning. Follow it and there is no end. – Lao Tzu”

I know that one by heart.

When I genuinely let go of trying to control or predict the “how” of what I want in life, the way revealed to me,  and relief greets me moment by moment.  (And this next part makes me smile:)

Feeling joyful with absolutely nothing more than my breath I understand I’m not at the beginning or the end, just in the midst of it all.

The unfolding.

Without a map, but navigated by an inner compass, going by feel, elevated by limitlessness.

“Within the seed of your desire is everything necessary for it to blossom to fulfillment. And Law of Attraction is the engine that does the work. Your work is just to give it a fertile growing place in order to expand. “– Abraham

If you can feel happy with exactly what you have right now, forget about everything it is that you want.  Happy right now with nothing more than what you have, I promise you, that everything that you want will come.

I am fully living this moment right now, enjoying having everything unfold before me.   Confident it will all go all right and moved by the infusion of so much joy and fun and excitement.  Allowing with  sweetness for the sweetest ease.  Knowing that I am being done.

That it’s ALL being done.

For me.

“Abundance is not something we acquire.  It is something we tune into.” – Dr Wayne Dyer

I have a confession to make: I have been a slave to my own mind.

There are parts of me  holding on to the same old story and I don`t know why.  Even at times when I think that there are not.

Example:

There is this boy I was getting ready to meet.  He and I had been talking together for some time. Now we had arrangements to see each other.  A visit to my sister`s house – close to his – to meet my newly adopted niece provided a handy opportunity.

As the date came closer, I began to identify negative emotion I was feeling when I thought about meeting him.  Truthfully I had anticipated this contrast.  But, I promised myself, this time in the spirit of the law of attraction I would not give him my laundry list of self-hating deprecation.

I wanted to him to meet the real me.  But every time we talked I was obsessively compelled  to spit it out all the reasons I wasn’t worth it.

It’s not necessary for you to exacerbate your contrast with struggle in order to get it into a higher place. It is not necessary to suffer in order to give birth to desire. But when you have suffered and you have given birth to desire, so what? You’ve got a desire. Turn your attention to the desire. Think about where you’re going and never mind where you’ve been. Don’t spend any more time justifying any of that stuff -Abraham

Over dinner with a friend I began to understand this:  Yes, I have a past.  In it I used to tell myself lies and believe them. Here is my opportunity to step into what is real and going on.  Be who I have already become.  Get with that program because that is where the joy is at. This is where my alignment lies and there is big beautiful proof of it everywhere I look.

And sometimes that is directly at myself in the mirror and I say out loud ” I love you, Richard.  I really do.”

“Nothing is more important than feeling good.  What are you now looking at and using as your excuse not to feel good?” – Abraham

“I like the idea that I can be or do or have whatever I want.  And so I’m beginning to tell my story the way I want it to be.” – Abraham

“The people in your life will always give you what you expect from them. No exceptions.” – Abraham

Whenever you’re trying to understand anything that is as huge as all of the Universe, or as huge as all eternity, all you have to do is bring it back to something simple that you do understand, and ask the questions and apply them. And then you can understand the Whole. Everything that’s true of the Whole is true of the individual. – Abraham

It serves you  to line up your energy before you act, because if you do take action when out of alignment it’s not going to take you where you want it to anyway.  The energy always has to be a vibrational match. 

For me this can be a challenge.  Sometimes I go to this place where I am thinking I can act/work myself through situations/emotions, and that if I start busting my ass it’ll all be all right. 

I learned the truth of this in such an instantaneous deliciously satisfying way the other night.  I had to shovel the driveway.  It was covered in snow and about four inches of solid ice underneath.  The weather had turned mild so it was the best time to get this done.  (Trust me, I wasn’t feeling it.)

Huffing and puffing I take a crack at the ice.  I am cursing it in my head and out loud.  I could not get this ice to crack –I couldn’t seem to get at it or make any progress, you know?  I am thinking: “I’m never going to get this done… I am going to miss the Jennifer Hudson Christmas special on TV…”

So I say out loud “What are you doing?  Relax yourself, boy.  Get your breath right.  It’s just some snow and ice in the driveway, star…It’s all good.”   I tell myself to treat this as if it was a workout at the gym.  I wouldn’t be pissed of exerting myself at the gym.  I’d be happy about it.  A chance to keep things sexy and I’m in.

Well, as soon as I had the energy right and my thoughts on enjoying the feeling of the present moment – the task became effortless.  It was as if all of a sudden I hit the ice at all the right angles.  I felt awesome.  Right out there with the spot of the street light shining on me.  I just felt happy that I had allowed myself to  figure a way into alignment with my desires.  Even with something simple like  clearing the ice because now I could apply this to something greater.  Now, how great would that be? 

Hard work is not the path to Well- Being. Feeling good is the path to Well-Being. You don’t create through action; you create through vibration. And then, your vibration calls action from you. – Abraham
