All is Awakening
 
As we know, we are not the only ones awakening. 
We are awakening together, as collective soul. 
 
What affects one affects One. 
What affects one affects All. 
 
We can be sure that our awakening sparks the awakening of others. 
We can also know that we are awake by virtue of those who have awakened before us.
 
Each soul sparks the next, with all soul rising to level of highest vibration. 
 
It does not really matter where we start. 
There is no hierarchy of souls. 
 
Consciousness always rises to the highest level, which is the highest level in the room, in the town, in the city, on the planet, in the Universe. 
 
It also does not really matter where we are in the development of our mind/ego/personality, or what our station or situation is in the world.
 
The world and how we fit into the world has nothing to do with our ability to awaken, or our desire to live in conscious awareness. 

Some present the idea of transmission or activation.
Perhaps there is something to this. 
 
But awakening is really about remembering what we have forgotten. 
When we are sparked into our remembering of consciousness, it is absolute. 
We remember. Boom! 
 
Once we have remembered, we cannot forget again. 
The spark is lit—it’s been waiting to be lit this entire lifetime. 
 
This is the moment of awakening—not transmission or activation from another person or practice, although are proximity to another may jolt our remembrance. 
 
The awakening comes of a situation or experience that brings our remembrance forward, like a long-hidden memory. 
 
Only this time, the memory is not of an event that happened to us in the past. It is about our core truth, our knowing of our self as soul. Our remembrance of our soul self. 
 
We remember. Boom! 
Then we learn how to live. 

Each of us arrives into this lifetime perfectly.

We arrive into the perfect time and perfect place, exactly as we have chosen in our life-between-lives, so that we will be perfectly positioned to meet everyone in our soul circle.

Some in our soul circle are family.
Some are friends, lovers, colleagues.
Even the so-called random helpers we meet on a whim are in our soul circle.

You have karma with every person you meet.
You’ll meet every person you’re destined to.

Your soul circle supports you always—even those times when you are lonely, or feeling isolated, or feeling like no one could possibly understand.

Even those you might never meet in person—such as all the people reading this blog right now, or all the people who will listen to the radio show today—we’re all in a soul circle, too. 
We’re kindred spirits, working on our soul growth together.
It is good to remember we are all supporting each other.

Part of being a sensitive, awakened person is that we want to help others.

This is only natural—as souls, our purpose is to help other souls.

Yet, sometimes we come to a place where we mistakenly think that helping others is more important than helping ourselves.

“I just want to help,” is a phrase I commonly hear people say, when they discover their gifts in healing, intuition and spirituality.

Again, it’s a natural, correct and generous feeling.
And yet, sometimes, we need to focus on ourselves.

It’s very easy as an intuitive and empath (which all of you are) to see with laser-like focus what’s out of balance in someone else’s life.

We spot the problem immediately, and we want to help, we want to fix, and sometimes we even want to save. But this can become a distraction. 

Sometimes, we become so aware of what’s going on with others, we forget to look at what’s going on with us. 

If you believe that your soul purpose is to help others, you might take a small step back from this view, and check in with yourself. 

Is there anything in your life that needs to balance?
Is there anything going on that needs resolving?
Do you need some healing?
Do you need some rest?

When we take care of ourselves, we become stronger and more whole. And when we lift ourselves, we also lift everyone.

If you've ever experienced a romantic relationship, you know: 

Some are good.
Some are...not so good.
Relationships are a mixed bag. 
Romance is not always all that. 

Yet there can be this sense of dread that creeps in, if you aren’t currently lock-step with the cultural expectation for full-on hand-fasted happiness, every day, till death do us part. 

What society tells us is:

We’re supposed to be in love.
We’re supposed to be romantic.
We’re supposed to be committed.
We’re supposed to be twin-flamed.

But none of this is real.
It’s just a made-up story.
It's society's story. 
It doesn't have to be ours. 

On any given day—some of us will be with our Beloved, some of us will be estranged, some of us will be with friends or family, some of us will be alone.

There is no one way.

If you are not fitting into society's story of what romance should be, there isn't anything wrong with you. 

It's the story that's the falsehood. 
Stop repeating it to yourself. 

When you head into a crowd of people, do you tend to separate?

If you’re empathic, like so many of you are, you may feel the need to use protection—to surround yourself with Light, to wear a protective shield, to use a psychic-cloaking device.

But things are changing.
And what you might be feeling lately, is that you can be more open.
You can connect more.
You can feel part of.

As more and more souls become conscious, we’re going to feel an increase in our connection-at-all-times-with-everyone.

We’re trending toward less us-vs.-them, and more simply us.

It can be interesting to notice how you feel now, when you are out and about.

Not how you used to feel.
But how you actually feel today, as part of collective soul.

A lot of times, as sensitives, we like to withdraw from the world.

We go internal. 
We introvert.
We isolate.
We retreat.

The energy of the world can feel overwhelming! 
It can be great to nestle into our favorite spaces and do quiet internal things! 

Yet we have been doing this for a while, haven't we?

Sometimes, going quiet or internal is a way of distracting ourselves from the true reality that it’s time to make some changes in our life.

Especially as we emerge from the pandemic, we may find that we have become not just comforted by our quiet pursuits—but stuck in them.

The idea is not to change your personality—it is a true gift to be sensitive!
The bigger question is if our internal ways are serving us—or not.

If you’ve been hiding out for a while, and are struggling to come back into the world, you might meditate on these four questions:
​
• What’s working in my life?
• What’s not working?
• What’s trying to change?
• What must change?

And see what shows up for you.
