LINKING TO THE POSITIVITY OF MERCURY RETROGRADE

Energy… we are energy, we live in energy, life is energy and we are life.

While fourth quarter may have had you spinning with your fragmentation of your goals, dreams, aspirations, ping-ponging between your mind and heart… take heart, because this affects everyone differently based on where you presently sit.

You may have noticed your circle of friends, colleagues, your community, your family and loved ones have been scattered in the energies surrounding them.  

You may have noticed your own energy blur shift gears like some funky make-shift way of navigating what is going on.

In this crazy time, let me remind you that optimism and positive energy will be your light and pull you through what may appear to be challenging times for your soul.  

You can rise above the confusion and chaos and surrender to the belief that possibility and change are abundant.

On this #GivingTuesday, I wanted to give to you some key things for you to put in your back pocket or life’s tool chest for you to see as you try to look forward to 2019 and branch out to your own giving to your community and circles with even more vibrant vigor...

• ·         Understanding that the ‘quiet’ moments are designed for you to sit in reflection to regroup your thoughts, goals, feelings and understand what else you need to do to get where you are desiring to go next.  This healing time is meant for you to do the work and in doing it, you can expand your consciousness.

• ·         Don’t believe that retrograde is a negative thing, this can actually work to your favor, even if you feel stalled in the moment to where you are right now.  All things come in their designed time. Instead of feeling frustrated that you are spinning your wheels because things are not going your way, use this time productively to clean-up and declutter your life’s fragmented energies or tackle something you might have been procrastinating doing.

• ·        If things are falling away, know that they are only doing so because they are no longer serving you well. Know that this is merely creating a pathway for you to embrace something new.

• ·        Your greatest and highest good is always part of the energy from THE UNIVERSE. While sometimes challenges are tough, set-backs or delays may be frustrating, know that there is always a reason you cannot see and it is for your protection or preparation, so that when things do align, you have a smoother road.

These are just some things to incorporate into your daily living. 

Nothing is impossible to get through and if you take the time to link to the positivity of a retrograde energy, you will not struggle.   

Be peaceful and don’t fight against yourself – listen carefully to your heart, honor and cherish what it is telling you and be grateful for the moments to do so as you put your energy in an upward spiraling light.

When you sit in this place, you have more fulfillment.

When your heart is full, you have more to give to others.

But with an empty tank sitting on depletion in negative energy, there is nothing left.

Take time to REfuel and REfortify and REgroup during a Retrograde so you have more of yourself to apply, give, and share.  We have the opportunity to do this daily, not just on days designated or commercialized to do so.

We can Give Thanks all year around.

We can Give Love all year around.

We can celebrate life and moments, and share every day if we choose. 

But it all begins with honoring the core, the soul, the home base foundation of where you are sitting in stability to do so freely, openly and securely from a place of vibrancy with the purest intention. 

If you are confused or at a crossroads, there is an answer to every solution, because you are the answer to many.  You just have to step outside of yourself to see it for your optimum clarity.

For everything else, just ask. https://linkronicity.com/CONNECT.html and your question just may appear in the next video. I’m here to help you sort through the fray and will address you only by first name or initials or even anonymously, just indicate your preference when you ask your question.

Thank you for being brave enough to step out of your comfort zone to seek the positive,

Be gentle with yourself, Lovely Souls.  Link to the positivity that is available to you in abundance. Retrograde can be your friend, but you first need to be brave enough to be your own.  

Blessings and light.

Namaste.

LINKING TO PRESENT REFLECTION

You’re human (last we checked). 

You think. You feel. You plan. You create. You experience.

You are made up of all of the things that make up the person you are.

You have something deeper within yourself attached to how you want things to be.

There is nothing wrong with this vision, except that your vision may or may not be unfolding exactly as you see it according to your human.

However, let’s take a step back in reflection – because it is here we truly see.

What if ….

• ·         Your human was to let go of its vision?
• ·         Your human allowed your soul to drive instead?
• ·         Would you get to look at life differently than your human sees it?
• ·         How would you feel looking at it from this viewpoint?

Ah… yes, this is called LINKING TO PRESENT REFLECTION.

But too often, humans are ‘too busy’ to ‘slow down’ to even notice that the reflection exists. 

Too often, humans wish to try to ‘control’ outcomes, rather than allow outcomes to find them organically and to appreciate what is being taught by said outcomes in the present moment.  

These exact moments are creatively and strategically designed by the Universe to help you escalate your own ability to be aware on a higher level of what you are meant to SEE right now instead of 'later' or 'then' ... because its relevance exists HERE. 

Here lies the answer to human struggle, this ‘internal conflict’ we define as chaos, unrest and lack of inner peace.

Why am I bringing this to your attention?  

I am sharing this to open your mind to a greater awareness that exists beyond the world you are currently living in, even if you feel you are ‘present’ as a human in your state of being amidst your doing.

Why is this necessary to understand?

You can avoid your own inner chaos and have a balanced and secure grounding by first understanding what is going on inside of you.

Reflection is something most humans blow off or dismiss as something they don’t have time for. But I say YOU ARE WORTH IT... so won't you begin to believe this yourself?

What if I were to tell you that if you take time to reflect and find the goodness in this space, you will feel amazing and in turn you can radiate and share this energy outward to pay it forward to make the world a better place, one person at a time as you spread this goodness? 

Quite often, at the end of each day, most humans will talk about all of the bad stuff going on in their day, without reflecting upon the good and they allow the commiseration in the bad to become negative energy, which is what drives the bus of their daily living.

This is what affects your quality of life – that is if you allow your human to buy into it.

Think about the last time you sat in a place of reflection.

• ·         What did you see?
• ·         What insights did you have?
• ·         Where did you find your ‘human’ vision at that point?
•       Once you had a time to truly examine this vision, how did you see it?

When we give ourselves the place and space to reflect and LINK to this reflection period, we can see that the pauses in our life where we believe things are not happening, are actually creating something beyond what is happening behind the scenes of life. 

Our own evolution as souls, as a collective consciousness can rise in a more positive place and space if we give our energies to the reflection of the gratitude space. 

I do not celebrate Thanksgiving only one day a year.  I celebrate it 365… because I reflect daily and instead of carving turkeys on a day commercially posted on a calendar, I carve out a space each day to reflect.  

In my childhood, I was teased/bullied for being ‘this weird child’ who was ‘too deep’ in reflection.  

This reflective mode I had was often was thought of as being ‘corny’ or ‘oddly strange.’ Some teachers said it was part of being an old soul, for which I just giggled to myself. 

Today as an adult, I see that the many who labeled me as such, are the ones who are deeply searching themselves for what I cultivated regardless of the external shaming ‘back then.’  

So it is here now in this present moment, I deliver freely with love and hope simply with my arms giving this openly... “here you go.”   It is a gift. Please give it to yourself so you can give it to others.  Isn't that what Thanksgiving is about?

Let me remind you that you can have today what I have worked hard for, because you can cultivate reflection daily, too.  There is no shame in doing so… in fact your quality of life will improve tremendously because you give yourself the space to find your daily inner peace so there is much more of you to share with the world.  

Thanksgiving does not mean you simply feast on food. I want to inspire to help people find the feast in their mind and heart, to be appreciative of their ‘bounty’ with the capacity of what reflection can bring to your own ‘human’ evolution so your soul can soar freely. 

It is yours to have if you choose to have it and it is delivered with the hope you’ll share this reflection with others, too – so no one else has to struggle to find what they are looking for until they look within themselves with this reflective moment.    

It is a gratitude space of appreciating each breath, which gives me the opportunity to be thankful for what IS, in the present reflection of right now as it is happening … now.

My hope is that your quality of life can improve or be enhanced by carving this time out for yourself each day to boost your awareness zone into appreciating more.  This is not just so that you see what’s around you ‘out there,’ which has impacted or created greatness within your life, but also WITHIN you human for what you’ve collected on a deeper level of your being that also exists within you to share.

With this, I say THANK YOU to you – for reading this, wanting to understand and grow to a new place to be part of life in a greater capacity by showing up with the willingness to accept another perspective through this REFLECTION.   

May this reflective moment help you see more within yourself to appreciate to share and an opportunity to see outside of yourself to appreciate even more.

Namaste.

OVERCOMING LINKS OF SHALLOWNESS

“I hate parties, but I love celebration.”  

How many times have you heard someone say this? 

What are the chances you will hear this at some point during the holiday season? 

Maybe you even have heard yourself say it privately and you are now waking up to realize this for yourself.  

While this may look like an oxymoronic statement coming from some Alanis Morissette album of the 90s, I assure you that this statement is true for most … if only they would be honest and admit it.  

Will people have the courage to be honest to admit this?  That doesn’t matter.

But the bigger question is WILL YOU?  

I don’t know, but I do know that if perhaps I start the ‘wave of conversation' flowing this direction, maybe as you read this you may admit to yourself (privately or publicly) that you agree with my statement.

Let’s get to the root of hating parties…Could it be this?

• ·         Shallow, meaningless small talk where people immediately want to label you by what you do for a living.  You feel assessed by a job title, and that the judgments begin from this place, automatically putting you in a human disconnect.  Maybe people ask for your card, never contact you - even if they give you yours and you contact them, it's like crickets and the connection was lost over an expensively printed card that was a tree sacrificing its life for that to end up nowhere.  Maybe people at the party are only assessing the room looking around judging by physical appearances or judge you for what you’re wearing, rather than get to know who you really are on the inside.  This is where you leave the party filled with indigestion, wondering why you bothered to show up, walking away with nothing meaningful or substantial from said experience. 

Perhaps this is just a Los Angeles thing… but it exists... A LOT. 

In L.A. people will wait to see what car you are driving (or not) and area codes dictate whether or not friendships can exist, because L.A. is so vast and spread out 30-50 miles, taking several hours to ‘meet for coffee’ even if you live in the same county. 

It’s a commitment. But it is also a way to weed out the die-hards vs. the flakes or frenemies who themselves are into shallow and meaningless only-self-serving relationships.  

You may laugh that there is only one bullet-point above… as you may have expected a longer list comprised of other reasons to hate parties:

• ·         Fighting traffic
• ·         Finding a place to park
• ·         Crowds
• ·         Flu germs
• ·         Intoxicated and disorderly people
• ·         Food you can’t eat due to dietary restrictions
• ·         _________(fill in the blank).

But the above ‘list’ is merely EXTERNAL.  

Most people will muddle through this, navigate their way around it with certain incentives, even if it is uncomfortable/unpleasant to have to over-prepare/psyche one’s self up, take a lot of vitamins, Airborne, leave early, avoid the out-of-control folks, and eat before attending any said shindig, hovering only around the crudité.  

Plus, the above list somehow instantly bonds you to a stranger with a shared feeling… even though no one will admit they also hate to subscribe to ‘misery loves company,’ while navigating unfamiliar terrain. Don’t deny it – this is your security blanket and you know it. However, IT IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU to get trapped in this mentality. 

Here is where I will CHANGE YOUR GAME… Digest all of the above of what I just wrote.  Now START LOOKING INSIDE YOURSELF!   

• What if I were to ask you “WHY” you attended all of the above? 
• What kind of answer would you give me?
• What would you discover about yourself in ‘taking it all on –even though you didn’t want to?’
• What was YOUR expectation?  Should you have had any?  Did you have a motivation to go that differed from others? 

Okay, so now we’re getting into deeper, more meaningful conversation, eh?

Many people claim they want depth or to have meaningful conversations, but in order to get to this place, you have to go beyond the ‘inconvenience’ – like peeling ginger.  

Yes, it’s a pain. Yes, you can do it more easily with a spoon and yes, it takes time.  But like anything effort is not wasted. 

When you understand why you put yourself through something, you will soon understand what your motivation is/was to do this.  

If you attended out of obligation, or with the idea you’d walk away with something, then perhaps your motivation for going wasn’t PURE enough to go into being OPEN to what you could discover, enjoy or experience. Did you set yourself up?

The only time you should ever have any type of ‘expectation’ going to any event/party is if you pay a hefty price for a ticket to ‘go to something’ like a networking party, which is promised as such.

But even then you are limited to your own experience based on the limitation you place on yourself from the beginning of having an expectation that you’ll walk away with said list of what you set yourself up for!  

Understanding your own motivation can be eye-opening. 

Now you’re developing a deeper and more meaningful relationship with yourself to work through something that was originally difficult to see. 

It has to start HERE first.  If it does not begin with YOU, it can’t really begin at all because you’re creating an obstacle for yourself from the get-go, not giving yourself the chance to see beyond what limitations you’ve put in front of yourself. 

Once you understand what creates the mindset within your own being, you can begin to overcome what you thought was annoying, inconvenient, troublesome or simply a blockage to finally celebrating what could be.

What if you go and just tell yourself you’re up for the unexpected and plan to have a good time having experienced something you wouldn’t have if you did not go? 

Did I just help you have a deeper connection to what appeared as you original statement of “I hate parties, but I love celebration?” 

Everyone likes to celebrate.  This is what parties are for in the first place – to celebrate life, or an occasion or dare I say even a moment that is some sort of cause for enjoying life and having joy and connection.  

Of course, I'll always be the first to tell you that if you need to regroup and be in a place of refueling/refortifying/replenishing your energies and immune system to honor SELF-CARE - by all means, do this... otherwise you do compromise your well-being.  Just be sure NOT to judge yourself as a party-pooper. We all need cocooning time to rest in order to show up as our best selves to have the best experiences by feeling GOOD from the start.

The same type of depth and meaningful relationships with your very own family and friends can exist if you choose to open up to see within yourself first in how you approach these relationships in the first place.   Yes, it is YOU and how you choose to approach the situation.

While it can be true your relatives may or may not be as open as you or want the same type of depth because it is uncomfortable, keep in mind that if you do what you need to do to be yourself by showing up is not wasted either.  

Yes, you are like that piece of ginger that you're peeling.  Peel yourself.... you won't regret it.  You may not be successful in peeling your grandparents or siblings, but that is theirs to work through.  You can help, but you cannot force. Realize and understand yourself so you can see your own expectations from the beginning.   It's like attending the above party... give yourself (and them) the place to celebrate if they choose to join this party, but don't taint your own experience based on your expectation of what they will or will not do. 

Do not get hung up on what you hate. Instead, focus on what you can learn to enjoy and discover if you understand the deeper part of yourself that you simply accepted from a surface level place as your truth.

Yes, that is worth re-reading again and again.  

If you stop judging yourself, you’ll stop judging situations that may or may not be real.  

Assessing your own depth and your own openness to meaningful substance gives you deeper insight for what you seek yourself. 

When you do this, you get to the place of acceptance.   

When you get to the place of acceptance, you breed an opportunity to have a place to have something deeper and more meaningful within your own being enough to have a place of understanding and acceptance of what exists ‘out there’ once you deal with ‘what is inside of you’ first. 

Only when you get to this place can you even begin to SEE what depths and meaningful relationships can exist because you’ve first started having a reality check with yourself. 

So are you ready?  We’re only at the surface with all this and there is much more S.C.U.B.A. diving to do. If you’re interesting in going on this journey with me, I’ll give you a free consultation to assess other depths you can go for excavating your own life challenges and begin your own life party of truly living.

Don’t hesitate to reach out… there will be no ‘small talk’ – only deep stuff …   https://linkronicity.com/CONNECT.html  

Now that is worth celebrating!  It’s time you arrive at your own party!  

Namaste.
