Things Become Thoughts
I’ll never forget the wisdom from one of the tribe elders in the jungle from our Amazon trip last year.
He said that “Things become Thoughts.”
I was used to hearing the idea that thoughts become things, but this was new to me. He went on to explain that the more stuff you have, the more energy you have to spend thinking about it, worrying about it, and therefore your create mental clutter, as well as the obvious physical clutter.
It made sense to me as everything is energy, so the more stuff we have the more we have on our minds and in our fields. It just goes to prove that more and more things will never be what makes us happy.
Since taking this concept on board I’m always much more aware of what I really need and being here in the mountains, living in an organic eco-home with beautiful pieces of art, many temples and sacred places and a meditative garden inspires me further.
***So let’s consider which areas we are inspired to clear out or de-clutter?
Allow me to ask, what can you let go of that no longer serves your highest good?***
As it was Independence Day here yesterday, it’s a good time to be thinking about any co-dependencies or destructive habits you may have that are obstructing your true freedom… what unhealthy patterns or addictions are holding you back?
With the lunar eclipse coming up, (July 7th) we are presented with a perfect opportunity to clear our channel, expand consciousness, and open up pathways to transformation that we may have overlooked or been resistant to. I am no astrologer, but I do know that rituals held on solstices, eclipses and days that are special to me personally always seem to be extra ‘charged’ and effective!
So take this opportunity, the day after Independence day, to do a little inner reflection if you so wish. You could start by asking what do I need to release, heal or receive? Then you could consider what are your intentions? Or what intentions can you set in the areas that matters most to you? Are you conscious about that which you are pouring yourself into? Mark you calendar for July 7th to make an offering or a special meditation to harness the electromagnetic power of the lunar eclipse!
Remember we live in a Universe of cause and effect, and like water we will fill whatever container we are presented with, so choose wisely where you are pouring your heart, soul and energy. And enjoy your independence, and inter-dependence wherever you are in the World!
As always my beloved virtual friends, I send to you great love and good wishes
