Angel, circle around, circle around my life
Gently whisper the words,
bathe me in pure light…
Ask and I shall receive
Calling my guides, come forth, teachers
Willingly go within I listen
Universe, help me fill my dreams
Calling in the spirits of the earth
Give me strength give me energy
Calling in the spirits of the ancestors
Give me knowledge clear the way
Calling in the angel guardians
Watch my back keep me safe
Calling in the master teachers
Bring me wisdom show the way
I Am ready, I Am ready, I Am ready
It is a curious thing…this guidance. There is a confusing relationship with asking for, receiving, and using the inspiration that comes by virtue of being an energetic being in a constantly changing atmosphere. On one hand we are encouraged to be self made and there is a definite contingent of people living out “I can do everything and I will do it myself!”. And there are those who are hesitant, afraid, and even immobilized by the very thought of changing or moving beyond the current forms of their lives.
And there there is the wash of religious dogma that promotes spiritual middle men because we are supposed to believe that we have no direct access to cosmic divine source. Thus, it is a power struggle where the path becomes do as you are directed, make no personal adjustments, and all will be safe and well. God forbid, literally, that you make efforts that attempt access. It can make you grow hair on your palms…
So, at a time when the traditional programming is being exposed as false doctrine, for the most part, we dangle between the how it has been and the awakening knowing that we are starting on a grand expansive adventure. The universe is reaching out a hand…always has been…will you take it this time and free up the conduits of guidance set in place by design?…or not?
Let’s explore this guidance thing.
Guidance is everywhere, available in a myriad of forms. Your accessing it depends on your openness and willingness to trust, then respond. Become fully aware of the variety of sources that you can consult. Remember that there are inner and outer resources abounding. The inner are more personal but may be confrontive or disturbing in there deeper knowing of you. The outside sources are reliable but can be influenced by your own level of fear and trust…your belief system.
Once you are aware then begin the process of opening up and choosing some sources to cultivate. One by one you work with them and develop a relationship. Accept that you are not alone and the the Cosmos is really aligned in your favor and that your Higher Self will not let anything happen to you., Though at times it may not feel this way. You will be presented with the leading edge of your growth zone.
As you respond to the guidance you will receive more. The quicker you respond the deeper the bond of trust and the more reliable the source becomes. Treat this all like it is simply the way it is, the divine design that is a multi-tiered support system..
It is necessary that you also develop the going within chops. Explore getting quiet and entering into the silence. Learn too, to get the mind out of the way of your listening. Explore a variety of meditation strategies and begin to build on those you resonate with.
Also explore and develop different strategies of listening. Let music be a tool…as well as chant, mantra, and proclamation/affirmation/invocation. You are developing a new language and method of communication.
