Message for the week of 8.8.16: Emerging

​We are shifting and advancing as a collective, but at times it can feel like it is happening in reverse or slowing down.   The card I pulled was upside down, which is an important part of this message where this personal growth can feel like it’s in a backward motion some days, and other days, it is traveling at full speed.  You may feel like you make progress, then

​you slip back into some of your old ways for comfort and ease or to relearn something you missed the first time.  You may have some distractions come in to slow down your personal work or to test just how serious you really are with your personal growth.  Know that the truth on all levels is emerging and will be revealed at the perfect time.  This is especially potent now as we just began the pre-shadow phase of the eclipse season, which officially occurs in September.  There are three remaining eclipses in 2016 and they will challenge us to our core.  For many, this is a time when you true self is starting to reveal itself more and more.  We are all on different parts of our journey as well as with our relationship to our true self, but know that more parts of this are being revealed and there is a stronger pull by your soul to step more fully into this.  The first eclipse in this final series occurs on September 1, 2016 and each of us will be required to make an important choice which will have a long term impact.  As these energies draw closer, it is important to find that authentic expression of self and allow the world to see the real you.   It is from this place that you set intentions in alignment with your true self and help bring in to the physical world manifestations that align with your higher self and resonate with your soul. In order to know yourself, you have to be willing to express your truth in all ways.  Knowing yourself isn’t about superficiality, it’s about the core essence of who you are and existing from this vs. living in confusion, delusion or complacency.  Over the next week, it is important to take some alone time to discover where you are with this process.  Many of you may have more questions than answers while others have been digging deeply and looking at these aspects of the self for some time.   Each of us is here to learn, grow and continue to reveal more of our authentic self.  The more awareness you can bring to this aspect of self, the more you will live in alignment with your higher self and experience inner peace and freedom.
 
Many blessings and much love to you, beautiful souls.
