The Path Forward

After the deep dives and quick moving cycles last week, I wouldn’t have believed that my spiritual awakening could have moved any faster. Until it did. It has been an extraordinary couple of days.

It started with a challenging conversation in the afternoon which led to an evening of quiet calm. By nightfall the synchronicities and messages began. In the early morning hours, before dawn, Spirit showed me the path forward.

Afternoon.

It was another one of those challenging conversations. It never would have happened, but my intuition pushed me to ask the question. I couldn’t ignore the push and the question needed to be asked.

The answer wasn’t what I wanted to hear, but it was what I needed to hear. I returned to my room and began to pray and express gratitude for my abundant blessings. I affirmed my faith and trust in my path and surrendered to what the path was bringing.

Then I realized that I was calm. I felt at peace. It surprised me because I had just learned that my temporary housing situation was ending soon. I have a short window of time to find somewhere to live and with little or no resources. And yet I was calm.

My inner peace surprised me, but I knew it was born of deep faith that Spirit had always, and would always, provide me with what I needed. Just as Spirit had always done during my spiritual awakening process and while fulfilling my purposes.

I was grateful to be at peace during a situation that, in the past, would have had me in a panic. The spinning thoughts would have disconnected me from Spirit. But not this time. I was aligned with Spirit and soul, and holding faith and trust that all was going according to the Divine plan for my life.

The conversation, and imminent loss of housing, was not able to disrupt my peace. A quiet calm enveloped me and I settled in for a peaceful evening. Then I prayed for my path to be shown to me.

Nightfall. 

I wasn’t sleepy so to pass the time I watched videos on YouTube. After watching a few, I sensed a pattern in the topics and guided my awareness inward. Was there a message for me in these videos? My intuition responded “yes”. I focused my awareness, and an answer came immediately.

I was in the squeeze. That moment of uncomfortable constriction right before a breakthrough. It is like being in the birth canal and yet not being birthed. From that, I knew that I was about to experience a rebirth in my life.

Next came an inpouring of synchronicities and messages. Some came from my own awareness and clair senses. Some came from energy readings. Information came in waves. I had never received so much information in such a short period of time, but I knew what to do.

It was exciting to receive so much, but I needed to remain calm and detached. I distracted my mind with videos that didn’t require thought. When I found myself trying to think through the information, I returned to calm. The more I remained calm and open, the more I received. 

Some of what I received was brand new to me. Some messages were connected to what I had been manifesting for years. Others were connecting bits and pieces of conversations, intentions, and guidance that Spirit, soul, and I had shared over the years.

Throughout the night I received synchronicities and messages. It was dark and quiet around me but my awareness was active. Threads of information came in as Spirit began to weave together a new story for my life.

Before Dawn.

Into the early morning hours synchronicities, messages, and information continued to pour in. And then I saw a pattern. A patchwork of old and new began to fit together. Before dawn a new vision for my future life emerged.

With this vision, and this new path forward, came awareness of a new soul purpose. And with it something I never expected, awareness of my soul’s mission. I had questions about both and all were answered.

My path forward is a co-created work of transformation, new connections, new opportunities, and new beginnings. One that Spirit and soul wove together after spending years moving through my awakening process.

It is a vision of a life born from deep healing and growth. It is a vision that is only possible now after being awakened to my true and authentic self. And only possible with the help of Spirit and soul. The new path is of purpose and mission, destiny and fate. 

For a long time, years, I have waited for my path to open. I have dreamed, wished, and manifested a path beyond the life I have been living. This one extraordinary night showed me the path forward.

The next step is to remain aligned with Spirit, soul, and the path forward. I release all that is not aligned with the path forward, and I receive all that is entering my life now. I let go of the old and welcome the new.

It is time for me to move forward.

Connection and Gratitude.
