It’s the time of year when many of us feel inclined to shift our focus inwards.
As we witness the beauty of Autumn, at least here in the Northern Hemisphere, we experience a time of reflection and introspection.
A season that can often feel strange as we move towards the end of the year.
These last few weeks leading up to the end of 2022 might feel heavy with expectation or dread as you look back on how the year transpired for you personally.
Perhaps you didn’t manage to achieve all the things you set out to achieve at the beginning of the year.
Or maybe your desires evolved and changed as the months went by.
Whatever your personal situation, it’s a good time to take stock of how you feel emotionally about the way your life is going, and make any necessary adjustments.
We are also in the middle of Eclipse Season, with a Full Moon Eclipse coming up on November 8th.
The energy we are feeling at the moment is potent and highly transformational.
Eclipses can bring shifts, endings, and expose the truth about things.
They can deliver events and situations that force us into a new path on our life’s journey.
With all this somewhat ungrounding but beautiful energy around us, it’s a wonderful time to dig into your soul’s true needs and desires.
If you want to uplevel your life and move forward on an aligned path, you must have clarity about what that really means for you.
You only attract the right things when you have a deep sense of who you are.
Sometimes, the best thing you can do to get to know yourself is to ask yourself some important questions.
Things that cause you to reflect and contemplate the path you are on, and how you can best create the life you desire for yourself.
Here are some ideas for you to get started.
You can use these as journaling prompts, or simply reflect on them during meditation, or whenever you have a quiet moment during the day to yourself.
- Where am I allowing my internal voice to be silenced? Where am I letting other people’s thoughts and opinions be more important to me than what I think?
- What action steps can I take today that will advance 1-3 of my biggest priorities in life? How can I make sure I do something every single day that pushes my dreams forward?
- Does what I am doing today support the life I am trying to create? If not, what can I do to change it? What can I do so that by the time I go to bed tonight, I will feel proud of how I spent my day?
- Where is my energy being siphoned towards unhelpful activities or interactions? How can I strip back what distracts me (social media, scrolling, etc) and clear that time for more meaningful activities instead?
- How can I bring kindness into someone else’s life today? How am I showing up in the world for those around me? How can I focus more on what I bring to others by being my most authentic self?
- What am I grateful for today? What three things do I appreciate about myself and my life?
- In what ways do I still need to work on my self-belief? Once I truly believe I can have anything I desire, I can attract it into my life.
Why not come back to these questions throughout the rest of the year, observing how your responses may change?
What can you do to really make a beautiful difference in your life?
Listen to what your heart tells you.
It’s never too late to redirect your energy or switch paths if necessary.
Just because the end of the year is nearing, that’s no reason to feel frustrated or resigned.
Every single moment counts, and the way you design your days will impact the way your life manifests.
That could be as small and simple as spending less time on your phone, and more time connecting with people you love.
Or it could be as large as realizing you’re not working in a job you enjoy, and deciding to leave.
Everything is energy. That means that you can always change your energy, and change your life as a consequence.
In every single moment, you have the chance to begin again, in whatever way speaks to you.
Last thing…Use this affirmation to help you ground yourself and become aware of what you are asking the Universe to bring into your life.
My goal is to wake up every single morning feeling immensely blessed and grateful for the life I am creating for myself.
Wishing you all a blessed and grounded Fall Season.
