Full Moon in Aries

We have a Full Moon in Aries and it is adding some high octane energy to this day. All Full Moons represent culminations, endings and completions. However, this Full Moon because it is in the sign of Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, it is also about new beginnings. This Full moon is reminding you that you still need to wrap up some areas of your life and relationships that are stopping you from moving forward. You must let go of those areas in your life where you are not being supported. Moreover, you must let go of the things that you feel just lukewarm about or have lost their meaning in your life. Furthermore, you must stop settling for just okay or hanging onto people, places and things that no longer serve any purpose in your life. Today make time to go within your heart to take stock of what you truly feel passionate about. This Aries Full moon is stoking your fires and giving you the courage to let go so that you can move forward with joy and enthusiasm. Listen to your heart, not your head and then let go!

Just for today, I am willing. I am willing to see where and how I need to change. I am willing to listen to my intuition. I am willing to learn something new every day. I am willing to step out of my comfort zone and experience life in a whole new way. I am willing to let go of all that no longer serves any purpose in my life. I am willing to grow and change and all is truly well in my world. And so it is.

Your truth will set you free

Tomorrow we have a full moon in Aries, which may be fueling your emotional fire. Aries is not a sign known for its subtlety, so its energy will encourage you to say exactly what is on your mind. Today, allow those energies to help you to speak your truth and say what is in your heart. There is so much that you have left unsaid and so much that you need to release. Today, speak your truth and you can expect others to do the same. Your truth will set you free.

Just for today, I choose to know and speak the truth and that truth sets me free. Divine wisdom, divine harmony and divine love reign supreme within me and around me and around each and every person. We all are centered in truth and live in joy. Everything is working out for my highest and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

Let go

Sometimes, you just have to let go of your tight grip of how you think things should be or how quickly they should come together and simply let things run their own course. And that time has come today. Today, recognize that in truth by letting go and releasing control, you paradoxically gain more control—of your attitude and your response to what’s happening to you at the moment. Today, consciously set your intentions to let go-let go of all your master planning and constant strategizing. Know that some of your desires will take longer to manifest than you may want. And, there will be those things that will turn out differently than you anticipated—sometimes better than you could have imagined; at other times, not so much. Today, let go of the illusion that you can control everything and know that in doing so you will be in control of what really matters all along: what you think and how you react to every circumstance in your life. Today, let go.

Just for today, I am willing to let go. I give myself permission to let go. I release all control to the Universe. I am at peace with myself and with Life. Everything is working out for my highest and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

Endings...Beginnings

“Letting go isn’t the end of the world; it’s the beginning of a new life.” When you’ve invested a lot of time and energy in an experience, a relationship or for that matter in a job, it can feel like a death when it is time for it to end and for you to move onto some thing new. When a relationship ends, it might feel like you’ll never love again. When a job ends, you might think you’ll never find another job. Today, it is time to recognize that you will begin again and that every ending, in truth, welcomes in a new beginning. Just like every experience is impermanent, every feeling eventually fades and morphs into something else. Happiness becomes sadness becomes happiness again. Today, be willing to let go of yesterday and stay open to the possibilities that today offers you. By doing so, you just may be surprised by how much you gain after a loss. Today, know that every loss paves the way for a gain, if you are willing to receive it. Every time you let something go, you open yourself up to something better. Be willing and open to the NEW that is just waiting for you to allow it to come into your life.

Just for today, I recognize that this is a new day, one that I have never seen before. I begin anew and claim and create all that is good. The past is over and done and has no power over me. I can begin to be free in this moment. I know that today's thoughts create my future. And, in order to change my life outside, I must change the inside first. The moment that I am willing to let go and change, it is amazing how the Universe begins to help me. It brings me everything that I need. I am safe and everything in my life works now and forevermore. And so it is.

Go with the flow

One of the biggest sources of our unhappiness and discontent is not being able to adapt to change; instead, we cling to things we’ve lost or get upset because things don’t unfold as we want them to. We plan our lives expecting good to come our way, to get what we want, and for things to work out how we planned. At the same time we’re chasing the good, we try to avoid the bad. And most of all we just want to avoid change. Today, become aware that no matter what kind of life you live, you need to learn to adapt and to flow with Life because everything changes. Good and bad come and go in everybody’s life. Today, set your intentions to flow with what is happening right now in your life. Accepting the fact that everything is always changing and learning to go with the flow will bring you one step closer to happiness. Today, accept what is, look for the silver lining, and adapt. Keep looking for the good in every moment and learn from the tough ones. This is how you will not only survive but thrive: by embracing each moment for what it is and choosing to make the best of it, you will find a life far greater than you could ever plan. Life is not about what happens to you but how you react to it, and some of your biggest disappointments can lead to better things in your life, if and when you let go, adapt and just go with the flow.

Just for today, I flow easily and effortlessly with new experiences, new challenges and new people who enter my life. I let go of all expectations and flow freely and lovingly with Life. I love myself and I know that only good awaits me. I feel safe in the rhythm and flow of my ever changing life. Everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Passion

Most of us have been taught to follow our heads not our hearts or passions. Therefore, we make most of our adult decisions from our minds. We think, analyze and rationalize. Then, we use that information to set the course of our journey. However, our monkey minds can often lead us astray, over and over again. Today, allow your passion to guide you. Begin by becoming aware of what you are passionate about. Whatever it is you are passionate about, be it a person, place, creative expression or activity, it is important that you find an outlet for your feelings and your passions! When you express your heart's desires, you open yourself up to abundance and joy. Today, set your intentions to be more creative in your life. After all, you are the only one who creates everything and everyone in your life. Today, follow your passion, create the life you desire and in doing so you will find immeasurable joy in all you do.

Just for today, I recognize that the key to creativity is that my thinking creates my experience. I use this key in every area of my life. My unique talents and abilities flow through me and are expressed in deeply fulfilling ways. My creativity is always in demand. I am an open channel for ideas and I am learning to be more creative every day. I love being me and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Trust

No matter what your goals are, no matter where you are headed, it is important to appreciate where you are right now! Impatience and too much urgency to change your life will actually impede your growth and may be stopping you from moving forward. Today focus on being present, remaining calm and trust that the Universe is always guiding you in the right direction. By trusting and letting go of your need to control everything, you can appreciate where you are right now and you will be able to make better choices in your future. Trust is essential in manifesting your goals and desires. As your trust and your faith strengthens, you will be able to open up to new opportunities that you never thought possible. Today, trust that everything you need either is already within you, available to you, or in your future. You are always in the right place, doing the right thing at the right time, always.

Just for today, I focus my attention on loving myself and trusting in the Universe. I trust myself to deal with any problems that arise during the day. I release the need to struggle. I trust the Universe to take care of me. I trust the power that created me to protect me and guide me at all times and under all circumstances. Everything in my life works now and forevermore. And so it is.

Patience

We are all receiving lessons in patience. Whether it be with our careers, home, relationships or health, you may feel like you have been taking two steps forward and maybe three steps back. Today, wherever you are on your journey, know that you are heading toward your destination, even if your path hasn't been full speed ahead in a straight line. Recognize that there are still lessons for you to learn. Today, be kind to yourself as you move through your process. Enjoy where you are now and recognize that anything worth pursuing takes time. Today set your intentions to be patient; to be at peace with your process.

Just for today, I will not be distracted by noise, chatter or setbacks. I will allow patience, commitment, purpose and grace to guide me. I have the patience to be kind to myself and others as we discover the truth of who we are. I relax and enjoy life as it is today. I know that everything I need to know will be revealed to me at the perfect time, in the perfect way. I am safe and I am at peace with the process of life. And so it is.

Get out of your head...

“Get out of your head and get into your heart. Think less, feel more." Many of us live our lives in our heads, ignoring and under valuing the power of our hearts and feelings. Perhaps you were taught to think your way through problems and situations, which may get you halfway there, but the truth of the matter is, the solution to most of our profound questions lies in our hearts. Today, make time to quiet your mind. Your ego is a lot louder than your intuition and feelings. Your ego and monkey brain always seem to have the most immediate answers to all your questions. However, those answers usually are grounded in fear and may lead you astray. Today, surrender, stop thinking so much and start feeling. Your inner self knows your truth, today allow it to guide you.

Just for today, I listen to my feelings and I am gentle with myself. I know that all my feelings are my friends. I allow myself to be still and quiet and I am amazed at what I discover. Life is just waiting to share its secrets with me. Each moment of this day is special for me as I follow my higher self and listen to my heart. I am safe and all is truly well in my world. And so it is

Busyness!

We are all so "busy" all the time. In fact, it has almost become a badge of honor to recount how busy we really are, as if our busyness make us more worthy and our lives more worthwhile. Today, begin to become more discerning on what you spend your time doing. Ask yourself before you put something on your calendar if it is really important to you; will that activity exhaust you to your detriment; or is it absolutely necessary for you to do that activity. Today, you stop being busy, stop doing so much and start to do things you love and that will benefit you in some way. Then, let go of the idea that you can do everything, for everyone, all the time. Doing less does not mean you do nothing; doing less means you spend more time doing what matters most to you, which will make your life happier and more fulfilling. “Sometimes doing less is more than enough.”

Just for today, I will stop the glorification of my busyness! I nourish myself by saying no when I mean no and yes when I mean yes. I know what I want and I do not have to apologize for it. I always have plenty of time to do what I need to do. Time expands for me. I am always divinely guided and protected and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.

Secrets keep you sick

It has been said that our secrets keep us sick. They keep us in shame and uncertainty. Furthermore, secrets lead us to think we are the only ones who have ever had dark thoughts and shameful experiences. They keep us separate and apart from the world, ourselves, our loved ones and even from the possibility of having a spiritual experience or spiritual healing from addictions of all sorts-substances, people, thoughts, work and anything we give our power and our well-being over to. When we carry secrets, we are guarded – unavailable to life because we are so afraid of exposing our shadows. We walk around feeling like a fraud, never connecting with anyone and always feeling like everyone else is better than you. Today, the Universe will begin to reveal those secrets that you've been holding onto and that are in truth holding you back. Today, begin to recognize that in truth you are not your mistakes, nor are you your actions. Be willing to face your deepest secrets and then be willing to forgive and let go. Today, tell someone one secret that you were afraid of letting the world know and then let that secret go.

Just for today, I recognize that today is a stepping-stone in the discovery of who I am and what brings me joy. When I make a mistake I recognize that it is only part of the learning process. I lovingly release all of the guilt, blame and shame from my past. I now choose to fill my life with joy and love. I love and approve of myself exactly as I am. I am enough and everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Stay awake!

Many people I talk with feel that they have no joy in their life. They feel obligated to do so many things that they don’t have time for themselves and the things they really want to do. As a result, they feel drained, anxious, and resentful. You have been given over the past months opportunities to look closely at the darker side of your relationships-the side of you that has a tendency to over give and to please other people, usually at your expense. Today, it is now time to integrate those lessons about your relationships into your life by consciously staying awake and not falling back into old patterns. Today, set your intentions to stay the course, remain present and claim your power to create the life you desire, no matter what!!!

Just for today, I choose to feel good no matter what other people think, say or do. I nourish myself by saying no when I mean no and yes when I mean yes. I know what I want and I do not have to apologize for it. It does not matter what other people say or do. What does matter is how I choose to react and what I choose to believe about myself. I am worthy of all that is good in Life and I accept it now. Everything is working out for my highest good. And so it is.

Relationships

"When you start seeing your own self worth, you will find it harder to hang around with those people who don't" Happy October! You have done a lot of inner work for the past several months and now it is time to put yourself first and make your projects a priority. And that is what this month is all about-relationships. For you see, your relationship with yourself is effecting everything else and every other relationship you have in your life. This month offers you a chance to make things right with yourself. Today, on the first day of this new month, make a conscious decision to go your own way. Do things that are right for you, not everyone else. And when you do, you will become more aligned with your soul and your soul's purpose. You will finally be free to move forward into the future that you've been dreaming of and that your soul desires.

Just for today, I am my own best friend. Other friends may come and go. But, I am always here for me. I support myself in feeling good. I treat myself as if I am someone who I deeply love. I now attract only loving relationships into my life for they are a mirror of who and what I am. I am safe in all my relationships, I give and receive lots of love. Life supports me in every possible way and all is truly well in my world. And so it is.
