Less Is More When They ‘Know It All’
Some people just don’t like to hear the truth. Do you also know people who seem to avoid you, because they know you’re potentially going to say it like it is? They recognize you as a person who speaks the truth based on plain common sense.
I have known people who have very little common sense and really do not want help, advice, guidance or direction from anyone. They know it all. That is just the way it is with them. The ego can make us not want to take honest advice, and thus we do not have the advantage of learning and growing with help from others who may have more experience or wisdom. I have learned the fine art of silence when I am around these people. I feel awkward, because those who know what I do for a living realize that they are pretty much transparent in my eyes, when they are around me.
I especially have a very hard time when I am around certain people, because you see the damage they are doing to themselves and others. You want to share a better way with them, but you have to let them follow their own path. It may seem like an unnecessary struggle for them, but maybe they are supposed to go through all that pain and heartache. It may be a part of their unique spiritual journey towards soul growth.
Protect your energy by knowing when to practice the art of silence with people who ‘know it all.’ You can’t resonate with everyone, and it is especially pointless if they don’t appreciate it. Why use up all that precious energy if they are only going to be disrespectful?
Astrology Forecast September 26 – October 2, 2022
The Moon will dance through Libra today and tomorrow, balancing our movements and reminding us to move in authentic and honest ways. As well as being a productive energy, this is a good time to make new commitments to ourselves, and to our overall physical and financial health.
Today’s trine between Venus in Virgo and Pluto in Capricorn, followed by a Venus in Virgo conjunction with Mercury in Virgo, will further boost our productivity and professional success with enhanced social interaction, good manners, a cheerful mindset, imaginative strategies, and a zest for life. Make the most of these aspects today to promote your business or career.
Wednesday and Thursday’s Scorpio Moon carries a soulful air about it, calling for us to examine our movements and align with our soul’s desires. Venus will move into Libra on Thursday, adding a deeper sense of unconditional love and gratitude to all our movements.
Thursday afternoon will also be a good day for business marketing and travel. The Scorpio Moon sextile with Mercury in Virgo is a highly favorable aspect for advertising, promotions, sales and customer relations.
Friday afternoon’s Libra Sun sextile the Sagittarius Moon will bring the work week to an early end for many of us, as it will likely make us feel somewhat passive and laid-back. Fortunately, it also fosters good working relationships, so the boss may be open to letting you leave earlier than usual. All you have to do is ask. Might as well pack it up and get the weekend started!
A light-hearted and fun-loving Sagittarius Moon will take us into a weekend full of fun social events or relaxing activities, allowing us a few days to regroup and recharge. Mercury will also turn direct on Sunday, ending its three-week run of computer glitches and setbacks. We shouldn’t relax yet though, as it usually takes at least a week for it to straighten itself out.
Soul Circle Family Ties
Children choose their parents and families before they arrive in this world. In spiritual terms there is therefore no difference between a biological child and an adopted child. All souls belong to a soul group or soul circle, no matter what their chosen physical incarnation and human family structure may be.
The soul of an adopted child is just as much part of her family’s original soul circle as that of her sister, who chose instead to be physically born into the same family. They have both been part of their soul circle for eternity, and always will be.
Parents of adopted children, who also have biological children, will tell you that they feel the same spiritual and emotional bond with all their kids. They experience the same levels of attachment, connection, and love with each child. Spiritually aware parents often also report that they feel they have known the souls of both their adopted and biological children in previous lifetimes, or that there was an instant soul recognition the moment they first saw each child.
We choose our earth families, parents, and physical bodies before we are born. Our soul knows before birth the physical traits, capacities, and disabilities our body will have in this lifetime, as well as the talents, gifts, shortcomings, and limitations we will have in our chosen incarnation.
We also decide how we wish to join our chosen human families, including by birth, surrogacy, adoption, and even the blending of families. These choices our souls make are determined by our chosen soul purpose and life path. There are many karmic reasons why soul circle members may prefer adoption, instead of biological birth.
Your Life Reflects Your Inner Being
Sometimes people have many issues with others in their life while they neglect to acknowledge that many of these problems are merely a mirror reflection of their inner being. This denial of personal responsibility is often the main cause of conflicts and drama in many people’s lives.
Everyone faces challenges in life. It is how these challenges are managed and released that gives one inner strength and peace. The answers are always within. But when we refuse to go within and face our inner truths, while instead venting our frustration, anger, envy, fear, and other pent-up negative emotions, it just brings so much more of the same crashing down on us.
That person you see with a huge smile on her face…her life is not necessarily all ‘sunshine and roses.’ Maybe she has just chosen to live with joy and gratitude in the present moment, instead of dwelling in the past or obsessing over the future. Maybe she has chosen to release that person or circumstance that had caused her pain or grief, and have chosen to move forward in her life with a knowing that bigger, better blessings are awaiting her on the other side of the pain.
The concept is simple, but the work is difficult. I am just as guilty of this human shortcoming as the next person. In my own life, I have also held onto things for so long that it stunted my spiritual, emotional, romantic, and financial growth. I held on to the resentment, bitterness, and vengeful thoughts, and it stunted me to the point that I found myself stuck in a very dark state of mind for a long, long time.
However, once I realized that both my psychic reading work and energy healing practice are absolutely dependent on clarity, love, compassion, and positive energy, I became determined to find ways to release the past and move forward, without any ill will towards another. Was it easy to find my way back to my inner truth and higher self? No, it was not. Was it worth the effort? Definitely!
Your Outer Life Reflects Your Inner World
Everything that happens in the Universe requires our participation for the highest good of all, and everything we personally contribute to this process of co-creation always has its consequences, for better or worse. The people and situations we experience in our daily lives reflect our inner world.
Although the final outcomes of what we co-create with others is not always our choice, or solely our doing, but still reflects on us anyway. Why? Because energy is the language of the Universe, and the Universe will simply respond to what we emanate with manifestations that match our energies.
For example, if you don’t like yourself much and constantly put yourself down, you will continually have life experiences that match your own self-loathing energy frequencies. So, you may find yourself frequently being disrespected, judged, or criticized by other people.
Another good example is repetitive dysfunctional patterns in your relationships, such as always being the one who is being cheated on. Believing that your partners will be unfaithful, and always fearing for the worst, can become like a magnet for cheating in every new relationship. The negative expectations and fearful energy we put into a relationship from the very beginning will eventually catch up with us.
To break these toxic energy patterns, we have to enter a new relationship with an open, fearless heart, trusting that if the Universe guided us towards meeting this person, then there must be a good reason for it.
So, why not let go, and let Spirit, God, Source, Universe, the Divine guide you towards your highest good? Have faith, and just trust the process! If your own energies are confident, hopeful, and positive, then life around you will unfold organically as it must. Stop analyzing and trying to control everything, and allow life energy to flow where it will for your highest good.
Laughter Is A Spiritual Superpower
I believe there are energies on this planet that feed off lower vibrations caused by fear, anger, depression, anxiety, jealousy, perversion, and hate. The more time we spend in such lower frequencies, the more we will attract even more of those negative energies.
On the opposite end of the energy spectrum, there is joy, love, forgiveness, light , positive thinking, and laughter that keep us in a higher vibration. Laughter is in fact one of the most powerful ways to raise our energy vibration. It even helps to heal our physical body and keeps our mind clear and our thoughts positive. It can be like a life raft that keeps us sane in a somewhat crazy world.
A sure sign that someone is going over to the ‘dark side,’ is when they lose their sense of humor. I’ve had friends who used to have a great sense of humor, until they were sucked into a dark mental state, some of them also using alcohol or drugs to self-medicate (which dramatically lowers our vibration). It’s quite alarming to witness the profound change in them. No more joking or upbeat banter. No more laughter. Not even a smile. Nothing.
I have a long-time friend who lately shows a complete lack of emotional connection. The first time I noticed this change with her was when realized she had stopped making jokes. She also stopped laughing at my jokes.
Throughout our friendship we have always relied on our like-minded sense of humor to deal with life’s challenges. We had used our sense of humor to manage the ridiculousness in life, and even our own dysfunctional behavior. Nothing is healthier than to be able to laugh at yourself!
But then she started losing empathy and interest in others. She increasingly became emotionally unavailable and dissociated. It has been sad and scary process to see my friend’s vibrant personality slowly fading. I have tried to reach out and lift her spirits, but she only checks in briefly from time to time, and then disappears again into the shadows.
Astrology Forecast September 19 – 25, 2022
The astrological highlights this week will be the Sun moving into Libra on Thursday, followed by a Libra New Moon on Sunday.
We could find it difficult to get much done today as the Moon dances through emotional Cancer. Go with the flow and promise yourself to get back to work tomorrow, when the Moon charges into Aries and spends three days energizing our every move!
Interpersonal relations may be somewhat volatile tomorrow morning when the Cancer Moon opposes Pluto in Capricorn. Do not even attempt to discuss joint finances with your significant other or take that phone call from your toxic relatives, and steer clear of big egos and power struggles when you arrive at work.
The Sun’s move into Libra on Thursday sets us on a pleasant course of sharing love, reaping rewards, and easy-going times for the next four weeks. Immersing ourselves in our passions and exploring deeper connection in our partnerships will be overriding themes.
Friday and Saturday are great for organizing, clearing out clutter, and restoring order to our worlds under the Virgo Moon.
Remember to make a wish on Sunday under the Libra New Moon, which will kick off two weeks of possibilities and shifts, moving us closer to our dreams. But beware the Libra Moon opposite Jupiter in Aries early Sunday evening, as this transit is notorious for getting us into legal troubles and clashing with authorities. if you are planning to go out, be sure to wear your seatbelt, obey traffic laws and do not drink and drive! Also, plan your activity budget for the evening, as you may be prone to overspending and being too extravagant.
