Weirdness Abounds!


Happy Halloween!

BOO!

WTF?!

Whatever your exclamation is for today, there's bound to be one.

I got an email today in response to my Tarot post on Facebook, "Someone's stuck in a "head trip." Is it you??" She asked "what's going on out there.... seriously, weirdness abounds." Yes, it does! For many of us who are teachers, guides and healers, we sometimes forget that we are still on a human journey and there are times when we need guidance and healing too. We are a catalyst for clarity, sage advice or open pathways. And still, the "weirdness" gets in as openings for growth make themselves available. Because our sensitivities are heightened and our connections are broadened, what catches our attention can certainly be defined as weird. Moments of vulnerability or sadness show up in a void of the wisdom we are so able to provide for others. The world is reflected in strange occurrances and unusual behavior in others.
This week has been an up and down WOW. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, my relationships are beautiful and amazing, I feel a deep abundance of love, creativity is flowing and my business is doing better than ever. All of this is growing with more ease than I've ever experienced. Yet I got hit with a load of sadness and fear this week that really didn't seem in alignment with all that I know my life to be. I engaged in the dance of disapointment, thinking maybe someone else was responsible for either the sadness or fixing what I thought was wrong. Then I looked at my own seeming failures, thinking my past was a fatal prediction of my future. Both of these are ways that my head will take me out of the feelings. The effort to tag my feelings onto a person or event doesn't tell me what the lesson is in the feeling.
Like the guides and ancestors who so faithfully assist my intuitive work, my feelings are a clue to where I am and, often in contrast, the direction I'm headed. The uncomfortable feelings are not a place in which to drown or to morph into anger, but a new springboard. The pain of sadness, grief and reflection are like the g-force pressure of changing speeds or atmospheres. Energetically, I am on the threshold of a shift in life experience. Because this shift will alter my reality, there is pressure from my vibrational history to maintain the familiar. The attraction and velocity of my destiny is forcing me through the feelings so I can experience more of my potential. Intense feelings can be a place where I stop and retreat to what was comfortable, or where I move through the uneasy force (and resistance) to experience myself and the world around me as increasingly alive and vital.
So, yes, weirdness abounds! It is here to wake us up, sever attachments, align new relationships and to get us unstuck from living in less than our purpose. Weirdness is our teacher. It will show us how far we have come, what we can release, who to embrace and what will choose us next in this amazing adventure together.
