Feeling humbled by the pure power of life can bring a new influx of inspired, creativity to your door. It’s up to you as to whether you allow it to come in, although this will be pretty difficult to deny.
Seeing the hardships of life as gifts from Spirit encourage you to face your fears and therefore cast out your inner demons of self-doubt, not-enoughness and inadequacy.
Hone your connection to All-That-Is and learn to trust your inner voice. The Wisdom of your Soul will continue to guide you forward.
These times are ripe with opportunities to serve, enlighten, heal, connect and most of all to share love, happiness and your presence.
Being generous with your graciousness not only helps to diminish your shadow it’s also one more step forward on the path to enlightenment.
Much Love,
Rebecca
