How to access your deepest inspiration?

You may refer to mentors as individuals who have done things you might wish you had done or, wish you could do.  There is another way to view people who inspire and motivate you.  After all, they are leading back to your deepest inspiration, that is, you! The better you feel, the more you know you are allowing energy to flow.  You are reminding yourself that you know your purpose.  Mentors guide you back to yourself. 

As you decide to raise your awareness, you zero in on the implications of your thoughts.  The energy vibration reflects how you feel about yourself where you are.  You are inspired to travel a certain distance in this lifetime.   I do not mean geographical distance as you would describe it.  Rather, I mean the distance between where you are in your mind and where you would experience better feeling thoughts.

Every person you encounter is a teacher.  Even beings you do not see are guiding, protecting and inspiring you in ways you do not yet register. You are constantly rediscovering and expanding on your own potential.  You learn from how other people think and act, whether what they do transforms their lives, and if so, how. 

Why is it you are drawn to certain people? Who stands out and what do they teach you about yourself?  It is not because you desire to become them or necessarily do what they do,  although this is what you convince yourself early in the piece.  You desire to have more faith in what the heart knows.  Good feelings are closest in vibration to perceived freedom.  Be aware of those and transform your life from inside out.  Be on your way. 

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." -Steve Jobs

How will you bridge the gap?

In any given moment, you are in the process of putting pieces of your puzzle together.  This involves making sense of your choices, your thoughts, feelings and experiences.  Even now, you are gradually working out what it is you desire from yourself.

Understand that you are awakening natural abilities that you will evolve to recognize as normal and useful.  Yet, they will continue to function their own way unless you learn to discern, control and master them.  What are you willing to do? When will you start?

To narrow the gap between what you know and understand and what you do not, you have access to guides and teachers.  Part of you may hesitate, desire to postpone revelations, take time to permit new skills to settle in.  Yet, fear is inside. 

You are already unconsciously aware of efforts to communicate, both your own and those of others.  What is your view on telepahy? How often do you read or anticipate what someone is thinking? How will you bridge the gap between sending and receiving energy from unknown sources? To recognize messages exist and are being relayed is a step to figuring out how to capture the information.

Human beings are beginning to work their way backwards from the limits they have imagined and manifest to limitless possibilities.  You can accomplish anything you set your mind to do.  The fact that you choose to read this blog post is deliberately triggered by your hidden intentions. To communicate differently,you learn to expand your own mind.

Why are you where you are?

Human beings are consciously unaware why they are drawn to certain places. As it happens, different kinds of energy attract you on conscious and unconscious levels. The more you learn about where you are, the more you realize aspects of the unseen affect every one of your choices. You often discover that you are where you are for reasons other than those you initially thought.  Why do you believe you are where you are now?

For example, if you have ever engaged in business, then you realize you will not always know where your clients come from, why they come to you or, why you seem to find them as you do. You may get referrals based on reputation or, ‘word-of-mouth,’ but there is more to this than meets the eye.  Even if you are not in business, you are also guided.

I recently booked a client that was unexpected. This work had nothing to do with the paranormal. The work opportunity arose after I had gone to a particular area for an appointment with another prospective client that did not hire me after all. Something prompted me to canvass a few streets over nearby. Looking back, a client I had expected was what drew to the area I needed to find.

While on the job I did book, I learned the client’s building was a year old. When I conversed with a staff member, I instinctively spoke about local real estate. As images of a cemetery jumped into my mind, I was prompted to casually mention how buildings are increasingly built on old burial grounds. When I closed my eyes, I received useful clues.

Wouldn’t you know, this woman divulged that the building where we were is on the property of an old church. She explained the chapel was left intact behind. I had reason to be was intrigued. When I remarked people do not always feel comfortable with the idea of spiritual presence, she said she thought everyone had unexplained experiences, and just did not choose to discuss them. I sensed there was more. I learned there was indeed far more to that place and why I was there.  You are given details as you need them.

Have you ever been to a place with the conscious intention and understanding of what you thought you were doing only to discover you got there for completely different reasons? Sometimes you start to wonder if you are guided, and if you do, you are right.

It matters less what or who is guiding you than the fact you have raised your awareness and vibration high enough to recognize it. This teaches that you are aware and unaware at the same time. Your efforts aim to align your energy, to make sense of where you are.

At this point, you are ready for the next stage, that is, where you further attune to energy and what you do with it. What have been some of your own experiences? When was the last time you were thinking about doing one thing and it turned out, you were in the process of doing another? To recognize stages of your own evolution is a very meaningful revelation. This takes you to places that you have not yet imagined or experienced. Yet, it is in the pipeline. You are already on the way.

3 things you can learn from astral dreaming

In waking life and during sleep, each person discerns what is meaningful and why.  Whether or not you realize, your physical body has a shadow-like astral body.  The real (astral) you travels vast distances astrally, while you sleep.  Since everyone does not recall dreams or even feel the need, you may wonder the point of astral dreaming.  You may be surprised about what astral experiences do for you, even at this moment:

1) Raises your awareness.   If you believe astral is a supersensible substance pervading all space, then you may also come to believe it forms the substance of a second body (astral body) attached to each person by an invisible, ethereal cord. It is always with you, and can leave the human body at will, consciously or unconsciously, and it survives the physical body after death.  As you discern that astral body separates and reunites with your physical body, you begin to recognize feelings of expansion, growth and renewal.

2) Teaches you about energy vibration. Everything you perceive while awake or asleep is energy that vibrates.  Through experience, you evolve to discern different frequencies and register the nature of matter.  The astral body discerns energy differently than your physical body because the astral body is not restricted by doubt and conditioned thought.  You learn about energy distortion and how conscious perception creates that. 

3) Prepares you for transitions.  It is believed that you explore dimensions and experiences on astral planes which prepare you for work you will undertake when you leave the physical world.  You might view this as a way to help you accept and adjust to transitions in your energy state.  If you were not preparing for energy transition, the change would shock you and it would require a period of recovery.  As your soul evolves in consciousness while your physical body lives, you become aware of spirit realms and you strengthen conscious memory.  This applies to dream recall and also other event recall.

More people relate than you think

Did you ever notice that the part of you which fears sharing your true passions or talents is actually  being encouraged to do so by people you know or barely even know?

Recently, I had a book about ghosts and spirits with me when I visited a local post office.  I innocently set it on the counter while I was proceeding with a payment.  Now, I visit this place often and its my nature to chat.  Yet, I only discuss 'the esoteric' when prompted so as not to freak anyone out.   Everyone is at a personal level of awareness.  Experience shapes what you think.  You recognize things based on spiritual acceptance. 

On this particular day, three clerks suddenly started to discuss this topic with me.  They shared their beliefs and how they rarely spoke of spirit realms except in context of popular tv programs.  Having been more outspoken about life and death in the past, they were ridiculed and now hushed up. Yet, they resonated such excitement talking with me.

One clerk confided a personal story.  After her father passed over, she said that he spoke to her in her bathroom.  She shared with me that she had glmpsed his blurry form and truly believed he had chosen to say good bye to her 'from the Other Side.' 

When sharing this experience with her family, they did not believe her and thought her nutty.  She could not explain why she felt a strong pull to tell me.  I simply said what people believe or not does not have to influence her faith in herself.  I reassured her that I believed her.  Any effort to force growth on others shows you that is not your job.

Not long ago, a neighbour shared a story about her husband.  He had a few strokes and she wondered if he was not hallucinating.  She described how he saw light beings passing through his bedroom walls and he was also speaking to people she did not see.   What should she make of it?  I shared my view that there is nothing to fear and beliefs influence what we discern, where and when. She got what she needed from our chat that ensued.

I admit it used to surprise me when people I hardly knew would confide to me about similar things at bus stops, trains stations, airports and other transient places.  Something prompted them to share stories of presumed ghost encounters or related phenomena.  Your soul tells you that you desire to relate to others.  Intuition tells you when you do.

Each person knows when it is the right time to open up about a subject that seems to evoke fear.  You come to realize sources of discomfort are always outside of yourself.  As you get over that, transcend it, you realize you have nothing to fear.  No matter where your talents lie or, what you feel compelled to tell someone, that will be good for you.

Complete strangers have the power to remind us who we are.  People close to you offer clues as well.  How often do you underestimate how people relate to you?  They draw your attention to what you need to see.  This is not about belonging to a political party, seeking a label or, sense of community.  Ask yourself what is your aim.  It is to serve in the capacities you are able.  This requires your will and courage to put into practice.
