Discover Your Inner Wisdom: 

 A Beginners Guide to Intuition and Feeling your Vibes

 

Ready to tap into your inner guru and take your spiritual journey to the next level? Intuition is the secret weapon of the soulful and you’re itching to unlock its power. Whether you’re seeking guidance in your work life, personal growth, or relationships, your intuition is like a compass that can point you in the right direction. Connecting with your inner voice will empower you to start living your best life and be supported along the way…

Understanding Intuition

Intuition, often referred to as our ‘gut feeling’, is a powerful tool we all possess. This secret superpower helps us navigate life’s twists and turns, guiding us towards choices that just feel right. But how do we sharpen this innate talent and use it to our advantage? Let’s take a deep dive into the mysteries of intuition and discover how to harness this epic skill in our everyday lives.

Strengthening Your Intuition

Strengthening your intuition is like tuning a radio to the right frequency; it requires practice and patience. Start by building a relationship with your intuition using what you already know brings you joy. Hold an object close to your heart, one that you know supports you, and ask your intuition if this object indeed brings you happiness. Listen for a YES or a NO. It sounds simple, yet it is a powerful exercise to tune into your inner voice. Make it a habit to journal how you felt during this process. This practice helps to create a baseline of how it feels when your intuition speaks.

Repeat this exercise a few times a day until the voice of your intuition is clear and strong. Remember, this is not a one-time activity. The more you practice, the more refined your intuitive skills become.

Expanding Your Intuitive Practice

After a week or two of this exercise, start expanding your practice. Begin asking your intuition about something else, something you are unsure of but has little consequence. Stick to YES or NO formatted questions. For example, “Should I have tea or water?” or “Should I bring my purple sweater on my trip?” This practice not only helps to hone your intuitive skills but also assists in making daily decisions.

After a few weeks or a month of this practice, you can start asking bigger and bigger questions. By this time, the answers from your intuition should be clear. If they are not, there’s no need to rush. Hold off and ask at another time, or reword the question. Make your questions as specific as possible to get clearer answers.

Mastering Intuition

Once your intuition starts communicating regularly with you, it’s time to answer more open-ended questions. This step will help you understand the depth and breadth of your intuitive wisdom. Keep a journal of what you hear and keep track of your outcomes. This practice will not only strengthen your intuition but also boost your confidence in your intuitive abilities.

Remember, intuition is a personal journey.Your intuition is a personal adventure, a quest to trust your inner voice and wisdom. It’s time to ditch the need for outside approval and trust the process. Embrace the power within, and take the adventure of unlocking your intuition 🙂

Full and Freaky: the Lunar Eclipse Full Moon

Full and Freaky: the Lunar Eclipse Full Moon

In astrological terms, this is the start of a new year. We go from the heavenly and spiritual energy of Pisces; the slow watery sign that dreams and imagines, that is not so tied to this earthly plane as it is to the next, and lives half beyond the veil, to the Aries’ abrupt, rising, warrior energy.

Most of the ancient and modern astrologers agree that the year’s wheel is a metaphor to the lifecycle. We start out as babies with the high intensive energy of Aries, and make our way until we are in our later years (i.e. months) with the ending of the year in the wise, twinkling and elder spirit of Pisces.

The Aries temperament is similar to a young child’s in that it is fresh and vibrant, it has no fear, it goes after what it wants, it cries when it doesn’t get it -but- gets right back up again! This temperament may get angry, however, Aries has taught us to use that anger for production, and never to hold onto it.

…There are various other cultures and traditions that attach characteristics, emotions, energy, colors, and, even, taste and sounds to these transitional times. But, the majority would agree that this is the most impactful time of year, full of metamorphoses and change: the time leaving winter and entering spring. The opposition of these two seasonal energies create a vortex of possibilities in each of our lives…

“Find Your Why and You Will Find Your Way”

“Find Your Why and You Will Find Your Way”

It’s so important to KNOW without a shadow of a doubt what FILLS YOUR CUP and keeps your heart smiling, even when stress is out of control and sh*t hits the fan.  It’s times like these , we get thrown off track, get hit from the side, lose the wind from our sails. Too many of these blows, can knock us down for the count.  But there is always a way to get back up. And sometimes that means finding your true north, seeing what is important and going the distance.  Getting back up means getting in touch with your ‘WHY’

2022 taught me a lot. It was tougher than I thought it would be , wasn’t it?? After all we’d been through in 2020 & 2021 most of us thought 2022 would be a walk in the park. But honestly- I don’t know anyone who felt that was.

The world was maybe only very slightly calmer- at least from my perspective- but my inner landscape was vexed. Things came up , situations changed, and topsy -turvy feelings became the norm. And this was the universal sentiment that seemed to rock our worlds- both outer and inner but mostly the former.

There were some larger energetic shifts that impacted us all,but, regardless of that, we all felt the awareness that there was still work to be done. This made me realize: sometimes things happen at their own speed, in their own due time. I am not in control, even as much as I wish I was, or as much as I try working hard to be. I can’t force anything- life can change and impact us -on a macro or micro scale – at any moment. It just is what it is….

And now I truly get that. My son having difficulties has really shown me how we can’t force things to happen. He is going at his own pace, not one imposed upon by me. He is doing the best he can. All I can do is pray, set intentions and ask for help when I need it. BUT I can’t force him on any level to go any faster to do any “better” even though my WILL, my ego might want him to.I need to be in the FLOW. The flow of my outer life and unexpected circumstances that may arise, as well as my inner life- flowing with my feelings, thoughts, passions and purpose- as well as my shadow side.

Word Of the Year: Flow! Getting in it for 2023

This made me realize: sometimes things happen at their own speed, in their own due time. I am not in control, even as much as I wish I was, or as much as I try working hard to be. I can’t force anything- life can change and impact us -on a macro or micro scale – at any moment. It just is what it is….Shana Heatley

Word of the year: FLOW

2022 taught me a lot. It was tougher than I thought it would be , wasn’t it?? After all we’d been through in 2020 & 2021 most of us thought 2022 would be a walk in the park. But honestly- I don’t know anyone who felt that was.

The world was maybe only very slightly calmer- at least from my perspective- but my inner landscape was vexed. Things came up , situations changed, and topsy -turvy feelings became the norm. And this was the universal sentiment that seemed to rock our worlds- both outer and inner but mostly the former.

There were some larger energetic shifts that impacted us all,but, regardless of that, we all felt the awareness that there was still work to be done. This made me realize: sometimes things happen at their own speed, in their own due time. I am not in control, even as much as I wish I was, or as much as I try working hard to be.

In astrological terms, this is the start of a new year.

Most of the ancient and modern astrologers agree that the year’s wheel is a metaphor to the lifecycle. We start out as babies with the high intensive energy of Aries, and make our way until we are in our later years (i.e. months) with the ending of the year in the wise, twinkling and elder spirit of Pisces.

The Aries temperament is similar to a young child’s in that it is fresh and vibrant, it has no fear, it goes after what it wants, it cries when it doesn’t get it -but- gets right back up again! This temperament may get angry, however, Aries has taught us to use that anger for production, and never to hold onto it.

…There are various other cultures and traditions that attach characteristics, emotions, energy, colors, and, even, taste and sounds to these transitional times. But, the majority would agree that this is the most impactful time of year, full of metamorphoses and change: the time leaving winter and entering spring. The opposition of these two seasonal energies create a vortex of possibilities in each of our lives…
