This week so far has had a weird vibe to it.
There’s lots to do which is normal but things seem to be falling apart around me or becoming more challenging with each passing day.
Today, I took stock of what was happening energetically not only around me but more importantly with me.
This week…
The vacuum has decided to only work for 60 seconds at a time.
The dandelions I’ve been working so hard at getting rid of have reared an attack of greater proportion.
The tree that I planted last week is trying to die.
And this morning on my way into the city, one of my tires was pretty much flat.
None of these things are huge but on top of an already full week, it can create more stress and intensity and some feelings of frenzy and not being able to get it all done.
I was beginning to feel the pressure today, so I stopped for a moment and I asked myself this:
What does it all mean energetically when I look at how I am feeling…
No matter how much I am trying to keep up, it’s not working (like the vacuum).
The busywork and the menial tasks have overtaken my personal work time on my purpose and passions (like the dandelions are taking at the acreage).
I am starting to feel weaker, get tired and my energy is leaking faster than I can fill it up (like the tree and the tire).
So, late this morning, I stopped and I took a few deep breaths. I performed a fire and earth space clearing in my home and I committed to slowing down the energy.
Just like the external events have been spiraling this week, so has my personal energy.
But, I’m in charge of the energy and how it appears and how I’m impacted by it. So, I consciously chose to slow it all down.
By doing this, the pressure released, my energy felt lighter and I created space for the things that I feel called to do to fulfill my purpose. The rest of it will still get done but it doesn’t hold as much energetic pull as it did.
So, take a look at your life. How is your external environment mirroring your internal energy experience right now?
What needs to shift and change?
Remember, you create each day and your experience of it. You are in charge of the energy.
You just have to choose to be.
