Surprise!

Hi All,

I know I haven’t been posting much on here lately. The life that I have created has become very busy!  I still write for myself though, and share here when I feel called.  This is a short realization that has been materializing for me lately.

One thing I am noticing is that I really do love myself, and I really am cool with being myself. I just have sometimes soaked up other peoples energy who aren’t there yet and identified it as my own. What a realization!

Coming from a place of being highly empathic, which I am sure many of you who are attracted to my writing are, I often take on “stuff” or energies from other people or my surroundings. Often without even realizing it.  I am learning the importance of continually coming back to the body and the breath, as well as allowing the focus of my consciousness to move outward into my surroundings too.  It is a Dance.  In doing this, I become more in touch with myself, and thus it becomes easier to identify what is mine and what is not.

The  importance of knowing that what you are feeling is not your own, is that it makes it so much easier to not take it personally, and just to let it go.  Either way, when we truly understand the why of our more challenging feelings, letting go comes natural.

During this time of auspicious beauty, there is so much energy flowing in. We are all taking it in. It is causing us much bliss along with many pains. The pains are our personal “charges” coming to the surface to be cleared.  Do not take this personally. Write about it, talk about it, whatever you can do to get clarity around it and view it from a place of loving detachment. You are being called to release these old wounds.

This being said, how we direct this new influx of energy is up to us.  The more conscious we become of what is going on within us, as well as what we are putting out into creation in the outer reality, the more we can expand.  As a result of expanding, we can hold more energy, and thus be a greater aid to the shift in consciousness. After all it’s all about energy.

The more energy you hold, the more you will be asked to hold.  When you step up to the plate, and truly surrender, your surrender will be tested.  Not in an cruel way, but in a loving way to push you to go deeper. To love more, to give more, TO RECEIVE MORE.  It’s all related. To truly receive is to give, and vice versa.

It’s up to you how fast we evolve.  We are all in this together, and we don’t ascend until the last one of us ascends.  Help out your fellow man by helping out yourself! In the waves of an awake person, others vibration literally shifts, and we affect all of Creation this way.  Do one kind thing for another each day.  It adds up!

I could go on and on. Honestly, I only intended to write the realization that I noticed that I do truly love myself.  But, as with surrender to Spirit goes, we are often asked to do more. And hey, who could complain when it feels this good!

Peace and Happy Monday 🙂

With Love,

Phoenix
