Opening to magic
I’m seeing a pattern in my clients and in my own life since the new moon. There’s this deep old terror trying to surface through the root. While it is linked to this lifetime and experiences in our past where we have felt totally out of control (be that death, birth, injustice, abandonment, rejection, illness, imprisonment, abusive relationships etc), it is inter-generational too.
There is something happening this year from a planetary perspective. From what I gather the slower moving planets are continuing to hold an extraordinary configuration that has been shifting and reshaping our individual lives and the collective. We are all feeling it. Big changes are in process and none of us have any idea quite where this is all taking us. But we never do. The future is always unknown and uncertain, and it is this which many of us find challenging.
Yet we have no choice but to keep placing one foot in front of the other and walking the path come what may. Everything that is happening to us now is because of something that happened previously. Every action has a consequence, even the most well intended. And somehow karma has to be settled, debts repaid and new beginnings gifted when lessons have been learned.
The antidote is to keep leaning into the magic that infuses this cosmos - noticing the signs, the synchronicities and the coincidences that can help deepen our trust and cultivate greater faith that essentially all is well, that the universe has our back and that whatever unfolds in our life is for the greater good.
Not easy I know. Our humanness can get in the way. But the more we open to the healing that is coming in, which is supported by Chiron, the wounded healer, the more we will realise that everything is exactly as it is meant to be and that a constant communication is taking place to reassure us if only we could realise it.
Life doesn’t go the way we plan, but it goes the way we need, at least from a soulful perspective. Sometimes we just have to trust that things will work out out for the best in the end and let go into the flow of life as it is unfolding and allow it to shape us, rather than wasting copious amounts of energy fighting against it.
Acceptance is key. So is opening to the magic. Reiki helps enormously. Reiki is magic and the more we invite it into our lives, the more the magic flows, at least that has been my experience.
There is always possibility and potential. We might feel stuck or as though life is bringing us one problem after another, things don’t feel like they are going away, but the magic will come to positively shift things if we open to it. Never limit yourself to what others tell you.
And pray.
The magic comes then.
A coincidental meeting, a synchronistic encounter, a random book, a bird at the window, the same number appearing again, a dragonfly hovering close-by, a chance phone call, sometimes something out of the ordinary happens. Take note - this is a sign of magic entering your life.
And the more we recognise it, the more the magic infuses our life, the more we trust that the universe has our back, the more we open to potential, and the more we live an ordinary life in a non-ordinary way.
For me Reiki has been key, neolithic stones and being out in nature too. Reiki positively changes things and attracts in just the right people at just the right time as well as supporting our healing and increasing our vibration, helping us to feel more of the subtleties of the cosmos beyond the mundane. By their very nature neolithic stones are magic, especially at night, and anyone who has spent time sitting in a dolmen will know this. As for nature - nature is magic.
It seems to me that the most helpful way forward at times like this, when we are in a collective healing, is to get outside, get one’s feet on the earth and get offline. Doing anything we can to stabilise the mind will help too, such as early nights, good food, getting on the yoga mat, breathing slowly and mindfully, weeding the garden, hands in the earth, baking cakes and bread, and spending time in silence or with positive people will enormously help.
But really, opening to magic is key. Letting go of the need to control, allowing the deeper healing and knowing that whatever the issue, a solution will appear, it’s just a matter of keeping our faith and trusting - which is the path of the soul anyway.
