The Hard Choices ARE your Spiritual Path
It will always be a dance between the mundane and the unseen.
Our spiritual and life paths are inherently intertwined. Our character is so incredibly important in terms of where our path leads us.
People mistakenly think that a spiritual path is for everyone - it is not. You can do your Reiki Masters and buy some crystals, but that doesn’t mean you are on a path.
It means you took a step.
You might have travelled across cities to do Ayahuasca in some blokes back bedroom, but now what? Hopefully the medicine gave you insights into yourself - as the vine of death it will lead you into what needs to die in your life for you to thrive.
Are you willing to kill it?
Are you willing to display courage? Ruthlessness? Sacrifice and surrender? To display faith in the face of uncertainty? To leave everything you once knew behind with no guarantees? Because if not, you just went away for the weekend.
Believe me when I say it isn’t just the big things.
The Responsibility
A spiritual path will bring you power.
It will bring you knowledge of things you do not even know exist yet, and it will cultivate a relationship with them that means you can influence, and out right, dictate certain outcomes.
There are many who have been trusted in the past and have misused the knowledge and the Spirits for their own ends. Who treat them as nothing more than hired guns and their own personal servants.
Firstly, the spirits have to make sure you have amazing boundaries so you don’t just give it away or do work for those who don’t deserve it.
Secondly - if you are reactive, or vengeful or take everything personally you will pull the trigger when you shouldn’t. Or conversely, think love and light is the only way to live rendering yourself impotent.
It’s in ending relationships that are going nowhere. Changing jobs if you feel trapped. Following your instincts and deciding, you know what….I am the most important person in my life.
The Reward
It’s like a video-game.
A friend asks for a tarot reading when you don’t feel well. He has walked out again, what is going to happen? Will he come back? You don’t want to but she needs it.
You put yourself first. You know all she wants is comfort, not the truth. You say no.
Ding ding ding you have now unlocked prophetic dreams because you can be trusted to not just give it away.
We are supposed the be the KEEPERS OF KNOWLEDGE not the constant givers.
You work up the courage to leave your partner - move out, take the dogs - and have no idea what is going to happen after.
Ding ding ding you have shown tremendous courage and serious heart - here is being able to speak to your ancestors on the daily.
So if you are ever wondering why you might be a little stalled on your path, take a little look around at your life and see how you feel. Is there something that you have always wanted to do but put off? Have you been getting messages leading you in one direction but you have been ignoring them as it seems too difficult? Are you in love with your life?
And I would just like to state, you do not have to keep walking your path. You can stop at whatever destination you choose for yourself, it’s all your choice.
