This morning I was on my porch doing Qi Gong having quite a time getting my mind to stop rushing. I closed my eyes and took several deep breaths to recenter. I then looked down at my feet. A little toad, the size of a quarter, had hopped out between my feet. He sat there a few more moments before moving along to other adventures on our porch. First thing I thought was "Wow! I must be a lot more still then I realize, because he was not scared at all in his 'tiny' form". Note to myself - "Why should I be scared then?" :)
When animals (or really any unusual / out of place element) appears they are carrying a message. This little guy was a BIG one for me. I have been really feeling challenged with this dramatic energy shift we have all been experiencing on our planet. I do not want to delve into that here because this shift of epic proportions is something each of us is experiencing differently / personally in a magnitude of powerful and beautiful ways.
What I want to emphasize instead is how you are noticing when unusual elements appear? Are you noticing when something is out of place? "Yes!" Awesome. Do you know what the next step is then? (we will get there is in moment). "No!" Brilliant. This is your wake up call if you are reading this and you answered "No".
For the "No's" there is a simple solution - yet a solution that must be embodied by you to continue your healing process. It is about being more quiet. You need to find time to quiet yourself. Take yourself "away" from the everyday chores, responsibilities, "needs" that take up your time and day. It is about literally becoming the out of place as you have known yourself. It is about embodying change - you showing up differently. This is the way inward! This is the solution to your healing. I will not get into how to do this because there is a myriad of ways each of us can get more quiet / meditate. But a hint for you is that meditation (accessing a different mode of consciousness) can come is so many forms. Do not to get tied up in what you think meditation is. Rather inquire with yourself what is meditative to you? What brings you to a more quiet place, a more personal space, a place of simplicity, a place of relaxation? This is how to quiet yourself. If you still are not sure, that is just fine. All you have to do is allow yourself an acknowledged space in your day to be out of place to your usual habits by creating time to be alone. Your magic will follow.
Now for those who said "Yes!" to noticing when an element or experience is out of place this is huge too. That animal, flower, person (and so on) is basically wearing a giant neon sign saying "follow me!" These messages / appearances are Spirits' way of guiding you to bring you further along your path of change and physically manifesting your authentic self. Follow the "unusual". This is the alchemy of your soul bringing your spirit into your physical reality. These are the doorways that have been opened for you to move through.
Let that out of place messenger be the exact portal to trust and to walk through, my friends, and you will be charming your beautiful life.
