January 19 - February 18
Embrace the cosmic flow and trust your intuition during Aquarius season.
If you cried the first time reading your birth chart, then you know the undeniable sense of understanding that comes from following the compass of the stars and their reflection that gleams through our inner and outer worlds.
If you didn't cry, fair enough, perhaps it's just us triple water signs that can't control our emotions.
As Aquarius season has rolled around once again, I find myself realizing that regardless of how much I study the cosmos, crystals or quantum-energy healing; the dense human experience (time and time again) clouds my memory of this divine connection to the stars.
But here is the beautiful thing; we are not solely-bound to the act of conceptualizing our cosmic blueprint. It is a visceral feeling that arises through our senses, the animalistic intuition of our body.
Amidst the chaos of my own life; the Aquarian energy has met me where I am -- as it will also with you. I hear my Spirit calling me to slow down and listen; to recognize which patterns are not in alignment with the destinations my heart is seeking.
Embrace Your Spiritual Journey During Aquarius Season
You have a dream; a desired destination that equally scares you just as much as it excites you.
If you find yourself struggling to navigate concisely in that direction, I invite you to find resonance and inspiration within the following parable.
Imagine this...
You are bound for Texas and the ways of the Wild West; adventure is calling you. So you set out on your journey, lead foot heavy. A heart pumping with eagerness as you feel a new life awaiting you on the horizon. But along the way, you notice signs from your hometown pointing you back in the opposite direction. Knowing that familiar place of home is not what your heart is seeking, you carry on. The time comes to pull off and rest, at the motel reception desk you are greeted with the smile of an old familiar face; perhaps it's your father, an old professor or a past lover. They fill your mind with memories of the past and do everything in their power to convince you to return home and follow the ways of societal norms. It is reinforced through this half-trusted guidance that you are not capable or worthy of moving forward on your adventure. In fact, it goes against the very grain of how you were raised and what was expected of you to fit in and be accepted. So you return home.
A year passes and you find yourself extremely ill, lying on your deathbed. Half lucid with only moments left in this physical vessel, you are met by your higher self; the aspect of your being that is limitless, infinite and directly connected to Source/Universe/God. A gentle, loving voice overcomes you, "I yearned through the aches in your belly, I sowed seeds of hopeful dreams in your heart, I guided you through the wisdom of your intuition; but you could not release the grip of fear nor the pain of judgement and shame. I love you and we are set on a mission of full expression and commitment to your dreams; so you may set an example and create a ripple effect across the earth. When you honour the call of your Spirit and follow your heart -- it inspires, uplifts and activates others; this is how we raise the vibration of the planet both individually and collectively."
*QUE: next incarnation to fulfil the mission.
Are You Following Your True Compass?
So, I leave you with these questions; who is directing your compass and how committed are you to the destination?
It is INTEGRAL that we spend time nurturing our connection with Spirit -- this is the underlying message and call of Aquarius season. Make time for what makes you feel alive and reminds you of your interconnectedness with the intelligent rhythm of the Universe. Through developing the conscious awareness of your Spirit, the relationship between your Ego and Higher Self is strengthened and your ability to receive downloads from the cosmos is heightened -- creating a clear compass for the direction you are called to embark towards.
Trust the Flow, Embrace Your Unique Path
The water bearer represents Aquarian energy; think of this flowing-water as divine messages pouring in through your crown chakra and like the element of air -- release rigidity and fear of what you are leaving behind. It is no longer meant for you.
Pave your own path, be brave and rebellious.
Blessings to you on this Aquarius New Moon xx
