Through to Victory

This month, I had to unravel the energies I felt. There is the Universal energy coming from beyond ourselves, and then there is the energy being emitted by us.

Right now, a lot of people are weighing in energetically, not just from the U.S. but around the globe. Many people are fearful of losing their freedom. No matter how the election goes, our combined energy is a mix of hope, fear, anger and worry.

On the surface, the next couple of weeks may feel dark because we cannot see what will happen. And chaotic as everyone fights for what they want.

Taking that out of the equation for a moment, the cosmic energy I feel is that of determination and a will to succeed. In my own life for example, a lot of things were happening that were causing chaos, and causing me to doubt myself, my decision to move to Italy, and many of the choices leading up to that.

But then I recognized that this place felt familiar. I’d been here before, with the same doubts and fears. And some of those times I, regretfully, had succumbed to the fear and failed to push through.

I recognized that I was standing in a moment where I could abandon my dream. I was too uncomfortable. This was too hard. Maybe I made bad decisions. OR I could believe in myself and go all the way through. You might ask yourself, where in your life might you be doubting yourself and your decisions? And where in your life might you have to strengthen your conviction to go all the way through?

I believe this is that type of moment collectively. Can we believe as a collective that we care about each other and not just ourselves. That the truth matters. That we have the resources to create a better world. Can we go all the way through and begin to make this a reality for our futures? Or do we succumb to our fear and have to fight and prove these things to ourselves all over again?

What stands behind all of these questions is really a fear of the unknown. If we make a change, we move into unfamiliar territory. And, I think, that scares us more than anything else. And so, we cling to the familiar which only becomes more and more painful.

One of my favorite talks from one of my spiritual leaders was called The Door. It was about how we move toward the door or threshold, but all too often succumb to doubts and fears and instead of going through the door we set up camp outside the door.

This is our time individually and collectively to go through the door. To declare who we really are and how we want to live. And to truly believe it. This month’s energy powerfully supports us to do that. It feels like a strong wind at our backs pushing us forward, urging us to go all the way through into our true lives.

What that’s like on the other side, I don’t know. But it’s what we’ve been knowing in our hearts and it’s time to find out. Let’s go there together. VOTE.
