Dear Friend, Happy May! This month has a lot of fire energy in it, and there are new blessings in store for us. This fire is bringing up a sense of reassessment regarding our life path. Because of that, we may be experiencing a new level of discontent with our current work and living situation, and desire to make some changes. If we tend to be quite sensitive to energy, we could internalize this fire as frustration and resistance in our mind and body. Yet frustration and resistance can be gifts in disguise—here’s how: If we feel frustration or resistance coming up, rather than trying to ignore these reactions, or even judge ourselves for experiencing them, we can recognize them as opportunities to evolve. Frustration and resistance are our mind’s way of telling us that it desires to exert creative energy and hasn’t yet aligned with a productive way to do so. The creative energy of the mind is using frustration and resistance to ask for help from us. The mind is asking to be guided and supported in a direction that feels productive and expansive. So the very reactions that often feel uncomfortable and painful to us can now serve as golden opportunities to propel us forward in a direction that feels good and empowering. Here are some suggestions for how we can alchemize frustration and resistance into productive passion, peace, and fulfillment:
Engage in physical activity and move our body – When we channel frustration and resistance into a higher-than-average-impact physical activity, stagnant energy we are carrying in our body and mind starts to unlock itself, allowing for flow and healing to take place. Exercising the body and mind opens up space for them to deal more positively with stuck energies such as frustration and resistance, allowing them to shift into something productive, like motivation, determination, and resilience.
Listen to what the frustration and resistance are saying – When these reactions come up, it’s often our mind’s way of saying that it needs something from us—and that thing is always love, support, and guidance.
If we are in a highly reactive state, we become too distracted to hear what the mind is asking of us. When this happens, the mind gets creative, using increasingly louder and more uncomfortable ways to get our attention. At the root of it all, our mind just wants to receive love, compassion, acceptance, and acknowledgment from us. When the mind feels acknowledged and loved by us, it has less of a need to reach for pain and suffering to get our attention. The mind begins to feel safe enough to let our Whole Self / Spirit Self guide the way forward. So the next time frustration and resistance come up for you, ask your mind and body, What do you need from me in this present moment? Then be willing to give them that. If you are unable to get a clear message about what your mind and body need, imagine them basking in a pure rose-scented fragrance that represents compassion and understanding. The emotions and sensations that are experiencing the most struggle then receive the most compassion. This gentle practice will help the mind and body to alchemize their discomforts into healing opportunities.
Channel the frustration and resistance into a hobby you love – A hobby is something we do because we love it. We usually place no pressure on ourselves to “make money” or “get something” out of it, except pure enjoyment.
When we channel frustration and resistance into doing something we love, the energies become productive. As we pour fire energy into a hobby, we become more dedicated to it, which can lead to us becoming an expert in that area. Once we become an expert at something, the next natural progression can be that our expertise is met with a high demand from others, leading to a new career and business. There are no limits to the magic we can create when we move in this direction! The fiery energies this month are helping us to burn off the lingering illusions and stories we have believed about ourselves and others, that made us believe we were lacking in some way. In the last Forecast, I mentioned that we would leave April feeling different from how we entered it. If you are someone who pays close attention to the inner and outer world, you’ve probably noticed that, whether they feel to be subtle or not so subtle, big changes are occurring in your life, and in the world. Where Are We Now? Although there was a great deal of movement and action happening in April, there was also a lot of uncertainty, instability, and what seemed to be doors closing all over the place. If we are someone who experienced more of the latter, by the end of April, we nevertheless saw glimpses of greater clarity, stability, and opportunities to progress forward. Anchoring The New Earth Right now, we are in a special window of time where we get to anchor and materialize the New Earth in quantum leaps. This was already set into motion decades ago by many Way-Showers, Healers, Empaths, and Lightworkers. We are so grateful to those who have paved the way for all of us to be here now. Although the New Earth has been a long time in the making, there is a very concentrated timeline over the next few months that, when utilized, will help to materialize a huge leap forward in the consciousness of humanity. This will also show up in ways that will bring us together with our Soul Tribes. This Soul Tribe will reflect back to us a sense of “home” and “safety.” It’s important to be mindful of the people entering our lives in the next few months, as many of them will be part of the Soul Tribe that will help us to connect more with the New Earth Grid. The New Earth Grid is the golden thread of love and Divine logic that is building the resilient and unwavering foundation of the New Earth, now rising from every corner of the planet. How to Connect with the New Earth Grid There are many ways to connect to the New Earth Grid. The simplest, quickest, and most effective way will be highlighted in this Forecast. Authenticity and Transparency One of the most effective things we can do to instantly connect with the New Earth Grid is to be completely honest—first and foremost, with ourselves, and then with the world around us. The first step is to take a quick inventory of where in our lives we are already being completely authentic, honest, and transparent, and what other areas might benefit from having more of these qualities. Being honest and authentic is not to be mistaken with being intentionally unkind, rude, or hurtful, especially in the way we deliver our truth. The latter behaviors have no place in the New Earth Grid. Some simple questions we can ask ourselves to help evoke greater authenticity are, “What are the things that matter the most to me in life?” And “Who am I when I express myself freely and fully from the heart?” A Willingness to Heal Often when we heal from a seeming imbalance in our lives, a large burden that had occupied our attention is lifted out of our energy. Although the Spirit loves to travel light, the mind sometimes takes a bit longer to be convinced, simply because it has grown accustomed to the burdens it has carried. There are different levels of willingness, especially when it comes to healing. For many people, it’s not until their thoughts feel increasingly uncomfortable that they are ready and willing to heal, and let go of the stories they have identified with for so long. These are the stories that the mind uses to reinforce the idea that one is broken or lacking in some way. Essentially, these are the stories that create victim/survival consciousness, which is actually the lowest aspect of humanity’s consciousness. However, we are in a unique time now, where we no longer need to identify with or operate from victim consciousness. We now have the opportunity to shift our personal and collective timelines, so that we can truly begin to operate from the most empowered and sovereign part of ourselves. This is also known as the Spirit/Goddess/God/Higher Self aspect of ourselves. So the question then becomes, are we truly willing and ready to heal? Meaning, are we willing to let go of the dramatic patterns, the insecurities, the stories, the fear, worry, lack, addictions, guilt, shame, self-sabotage, blame, or any other behaviors that affirm victim consciousness? Once we get an inner “Yes,” we can then begin asking questions like, “Who am I outside of the limiting stories my mind has identified with?” and “What steps am I willing to take to find that out?” If you are finding that you are not healing as quickly as you would like—“healing” being just another word for remembering the wholeness, perfection, and abundance that has been within and around you all along—then invite your mind to contemplate how it may still be identifying with the old victim consciousness. The mind might immediately resist, and think something like, “I don’t want the old patterns! I really want to heal.” However, question it. Ask, “Do you really want to heal? Because it seems you may still be finding comfort in the old discomfort.” Once you begin questioning your mind in this way, it begins to light up parts of the brain that have been dormant. These are the parts of the mind that allow for the highest wisdom and insight to come through, loud and clear. Loving with an Open Heart The idea of love has gone through many misinterpretations in most societies. We’ve been taught through religions, doctrines, media, and traditions that in order to experience love, we have to worry about it, search outside ourselves for it, sacrifice for it, experience pain and heartbreak over it, suffer for it, give up things we want to have it, believe it’s conditional/we have to earn it, and so on. Real love is always easy, unconditional, expansive, joyful, eternal, steadfast, and nonjudgmental. It’s simply the way people have misinterpreted love that has created the illusion that it’s anything less than those qualities. During the next few months, one of the most important things we can do to connect with the New Earth Grid, is to rediscover what love really is, and then begin to rise in love. First and foremost, with ourselves, then with the world around us. For so many generations, most of humanity has been taught that it is wrong for us to love and honor ourselves in the same way we are supposed to love and honor others. This tradition is actually one of the main reasons why humanity once moved away from knowing the Divinity of who we really are. We were taught to look outside of ourselves for the answer, when it was within every fiber of our being all along. Thank goodness those days are winding down quickly, and that people are understanding more and more that in order to be the most expanded, open, happy, and loving version of ourselves in the world, we must first start by truly loving ourselves. To the mind, this may not come easily, simply because we have not been taught how to love ourselves. So we can ask ourselves some questions, such as, “How would unconditional love treat me, if it was embodied in a person? And how can I open up to being that person?” I invite you to make a list of all the ways an unconditionally loving person would treat you. Are they generous, kind, nonjudgmental, fun, playful, respectful? Do they make you feel seen, heard, appreciated? Do they make you gifts, sing to you, take you on special nature walks? And of course, the list goes on. It’s always wonderful to connect with a Soul Mate from our Soul Tribe—someone who can mirror these qualities back to us. Yet in order for that to happen the way we truly desire deep down, we need to begin showing up as our own Soul Mate first. Seeing the Signs From now through October, some of the biggest changes in our lives and in the world also have the opportunity to be some of the most breathtakingly beautiful ones. If we are someone who has allowed our mind to remain focused on all the things that are not working in our lives, we may (for the moment) miss these beautiful experiences happening right under our nose. But if we are someone who makes a conscious decision to be authentic and loving as often as we can, while being proactive and committed to our inner healing journey … then get ready for the party of many lifetimes to begin! A Gentle Reminder: A Time of Releasing Fear, Now More than Ever This is a gentle reminder to all heart-centered friends—the Way-showers, Empaths and Peace Creators: Now more than ever, you are being asked to look past the illusion of fear, and to understand what is really happening in the collective consciousness. Led by media outlets and old structures that desire to remain in control, there is a great push right now for people to focus on separation, and the perpetuation of victim consciousness. This is a form of distraction, to prevent the collective from awakening to its greatest potential, where peace, kindness, love, abundance, freedom, and respect for all life are the norm. The interesting thing is, we all knew this was coming. When chaos ensues as it is doing right now, the climate is ripe for huge breakthroughs to occur. The path to these breakthroughs is greatly accelerated when we choose to remain steadfast in love. Love is not “airy fairy,” nor is it weak. Love is firm and focused. It is the most powerful energy in the Universe, connecting all living things. Love always listens, nurtures, respects, and has compassion for ALL life, even when the “mind’ wants to create the illusion of separation between groups or individuals. So my friends—Way-showers, Empaths, and Peace Creators . . . this is your time to see the truth of what is really happening now, rather than buying into the fear-based stories that are floating around the world. We are ONE family, no matter what our race, gender, or nationality might be, or any other labels the mind has created for itself. These are just labels. Your Soul is NOT bound to any of those labels. Labels are just beliefs/habits the mind has identified with, to create a sense of stability and structure for itself. What will our world look like, once we all remember our Divine nature? You have the power to create an open space for that day to arrive quickly, by choosing to first be willing to recognize the Divinity within you, and then the Divinity within all beings. We are ALL in this together. Till next time, Miraculously Yours, Emmanuel
