Clarity, a New Phase, and Preparation

A stylized depiction of a fire. The orange flames invoke wings and feathers as if a phoenix is being forged. There is smoke and ash around the fire and in the shape of leaves invoking endings and new beginnings.

This week brought unexpected clarity. Strong energies, messages, and new synchronicities delivered new awareness of my spiritual awakening process. I am in a new phase. And with it came changes and adjustments, blessings and hope for coming breakthroughs.

The downloads were strong, but it didn’t occur to me that it was because I had expanded and elevated in my awakening process. It wasn’t until I received clarity that I had moved into a new phase that I realized all the clues had been there.

Days earlier I had received a single intuitive message that my awakening process had ended. It was a shock and something I needed to process before I understood it more fully. I disconnected from the message knowing that clarity would come in time. As it did.

Another sign of expansion and elevation was a change in synchronicities. The steady and regular cycles of healing and growth were no longer being highlighted by the familiar numbers. I confirmed with my intuition when the numbers appeared, but the message was the same. No new cycles. A phase had ended.

New messages and synchronicities were coming into my awareness and I was being guided to their meanings. The old was being removed and I was guided to welcome the new. All areas of my life were evolving - spiritual, emotional, and material.

The feature of this new phase that is most striking is a softness and vulnerability within me.  My inner peace combined with my healed self has created an ability for me to be open and vulnerable. It is born of strength and years of inner work, healing, and growth. 

The more I feel the feminine softness within me, the vulnerability, the more I understand it and what it means. I can have a different life experience, a different relationship experience. I can allow things to happen for me and I can allow whatever needs to enter my life, enter.

Through this new phase and new version of me breakthroughs, new connections, and new opportunities can enter. The breakthroughs that I have been anticipating feel more possible now. I am ready for whatever they bring.

After a year of deconstruction, my life is ready to be rebuilt. The foundation is laid. Co-created by Spirit and soul. I am ready to rise like the phoenix from the ashes of the old. I feel both ready to receive and vulnerable in my Divine feminine energy.

Exactly what is coming or how my life will change, I’m not sure. I know the life that I’ve been trying to manifest for years. I know the vision for my life that I dream of and have sacrificed everything to create. But the material reality of it all is still a mystery.

For now though, I will surrender. I will trust. I will be vulnerable and allow it all to happen for me. Surrender and flow are the only way I know to move through the phases of my awakening process. It is the path of least resistance even when it is challenging. This phase is no different.

I know that Spirit and soul have it all covered. They have loved, supported, protected, and guided me throughout my spiritual awakening. I have trusted Spirit and soul throughout the deconstruction of my life knowing that it was for my best and highest good. I will do the same as we co-create and rebuild my life.

It seems strange to write this post. It feels as though I have been writing about upcoming breakthroughs for weeks. But it keeps coming up. Synchronicities and messages continue to appear and change. I continue to elevate and expand. Breakthroughs are coming for me and I continue to prepare to meet them.

Through all the changes and preparations for whatever is coming, I am choosing faith. I am choosing to trust what is coming. I am choosing to believe that delays are intentional and Divine timing. I am choosing to believe that Spirit and soul are working in my favor.

Until the breakthroughs come into fruition and manifest in my life, I am going with the flow and protecting my peace. Which, these days, feels like a super power.

And then, one day, I will write a post about the breakthroughs and how much my life changed. I will write one day that I have manifested the life that I have been trying to manifest for years. One day I will write that all my dreams have come true.

One day this phoenix will fly. 


The image I chose is meant to invoke the fire, smoke, and ash of the past. Looking closely, we can see the phoenix preparing to rise.
