November brings chaos and upheaval to everyone as the astrological energies amplify the intensity to a boiling point. As things metaphorically and physically come crashing down, it is wise to not let your fear exaggerate the situation more than the reality.
Sometimes we have to be forced by our circumstances to make changes that have been churning just below the surface. In the month of November you will be given an opportunity to claim your freedom and open to new possibilities. For some of us those opportunities will seem to come at a cost. Regardless of how the changes manifest, it is clear that there is tremendous movement and things will be anything but boring.
If things have not come crashing down during the middle to later part of October in the financial world, then you will find there are going to be some corrections in the markets in November. Even when the news says that we are coming out of the recession, I know that my clients and others are still feeling a very real pinch in their pocketbooks. I understand the need to keep the money flowing but then there is the question as to whether you can actually just keep printing money to keep unstable markets at unrealistic highs. This never works or it never works for long. It feels as if the time has run out on this particular illusion.
I look at the situation through the process of asking interesting questions. Right now, are we creating or un-creating situations? It seems that we are doing more un-creating than creating. We are in a process or re-weaving certain aspects within ourselves and as we do that our external reality will flip-flop. Energy is energy and energy follows intent. As we re-prioritize things and make adjustments then our external reality accommodates us also.
The good news is that we are leaving difficult situations behind us and we are finally awake to what we have done and what we have created in our life. As we let the past go we will find a renewed inner strength and vigor as we escape our self created prisons and gilded cages. That newfound freedom will allow us to be open to conversations that we would have never dreamed of having before this shift. We are now problem solving in a whole new and transformative way.
Yes, you will have moments of abject fear. Who wouldn’t? Nothing is the same. You will not only feel different, you actually are different. It may feel as if you are taking off an old disguise that has worked very well for many years. But suddenly it no longer feels necessary.
So take a breath and open. Take a breath and choose to live fully in this moment. Allow its energetic intensity to open you back up to the wildness of life and its unpredictability. Do we really always want things the same? Do you want always to have a life that is safe? Remember the excitement when you were younger and were embarking into new and uncharted territories? It was fun! It was freeing! It was invigorating!
You can choose to let this time feel like some breakdown that you created or you can see this as life stirring the pot to make things more interesting and fulfilling. Which you choose is up to you. You perception will color everything you are experiencing. Realize that your perception is fluid and changeable if you would but open and be willing to see that the world is not trying to create upsets that are personal to you. Life is just the process of staying present no matter what gets put on your plate.
One of my favorite sayings is: “Life is always about one more thing.”
So here we are and there is not just one more thing to do but many things happening all at once. When things eventually calm down you may find a new confidence and trust in your core self that has taken you through this time. That in of itself would be worth the journey.
Let go of what you think these challenges mean about you and allow yourself to open into the experience of this amazing moment. The best part is that you are not alone. You will find many out there also searching for this new self that wants to emerge. Know that you will always find support along your pathway. Just open, be authentic, tell the truth, and find out that there is support available everywhere.
