"Navigating Change"

How do we navigate the ups and downs of emotions when chaos disrupts routine behavior causing disorientation, frustration, disenchantment and fear. Moving forward becomes a mystery and a choice.

To begin with, remember that you are a Being of Light connected at all times to Source/Creator/Divine Consciousness. Angels and Higher Beings support and guide you along with our Ancestors and departed loved ones.

The transformational times we are in is shining Light on the darkness that would do harm, have detrimental power over others, indulge in greed, lack compassion, honor and love.

The true power is in the Light and the Love that honors our connection, not our separation. This revelation is awakening humanity more fully to personal and collective heart centered power and behavior.

As 2025 is a numerology 9 year plus the Chinese year of the wood snake, shedding and releasing is taking place, allowing for a rebuilding process. Through this current “shake up to wake up” process, people are meant to question their beliefs, to think for themselves without giving their power away to an authority who wants to tell them what to think or how to act. This requires one to face insecurities, fears, attachments and reactions to change.

Again, we have choices in how we navigate all the changes we face. Remember the Light within you and all the empowerment techniques learned and trained in and be consistent in utilizing them and sharing them with others.

Many prophesies and messages have been preparing us for the significant shift that is taking place. The process for humanity is to release and let go of old programming and conditioning that has governed us through the belief in separation from each other and from Source. The collective consciousness of humanity, throughout lifetimes, has abdicated personal power to others in positions of authority such as religious leaders. politicians and those claiming to be authorities. This is all up for change.

It is not about denying your emotions of frustration, fear, anger and variations of upset. It is about learning how to not get lost in them and staying in a state of suffering. Moving in a direction, however small, of hopefulness and or optimism for creative solutions, can bring about inner balance.

When we align with patience, calm, trust, balance, guidance, understanding, wisdom, purpose and faith, we help stabilize our physical, mental and emotion body. Loving ourselves through all the emotions is one aspect of managing our well being. Trust your heart, intuition, wisdom and Soul through whatever is before you. Aim your intentions for positive and safe forward movement that lights your path.

Do what it takes to renew your hope, even if it is a small gesture that supports your physical, mental and emotional health.

• Find something to to feel grateful for and place your attention on the feeling of gratitude. This can lift our heart and mind out of the anxiety.

• Remember to breathe deeply to release tension and fill the lungs with life.

• Refueling oneself in Nature helps us affirm our connection with our planet. The trees, rivers, oceans, winged ones, creepy crawly ones, swimmers and four legged ones are all part of Nature's family, as we are.

• Engage in your creativity such as art, music, cooking, gardening, crafts, etc. Creativity is calming and often meditative.

• Meditate to be in the stillness and open to listening to intuition and guidance.

Remember that you are a Divine Being, living on Earth at a pivotal time. Trust that your oneness with Source will guide you safely and efficiently. The Light that you are affects the collective in positive ways. Your expression of Light and Love is your design during this time of awakening consciousness. Be willing to lead with an open heart and allow your Light to shine brighter than any darkness your witness.

A heart filled with love is more powerful than darkness and the time is now to rise above fear and choose love.
