Re-Establishing a Relationship with Your Intuition
Today there is an alignment of the sun in the constellation of Leo, Sirius (the brightest star in the sky), and the Earth. This is considered to be very auspicious energetic event called the Lion's Gate Portal. It could be a great day to put something into action, make a decision you've been putting off, or perhaps spend a little ore time in your spiritual practice.
Ancient cultures knew the power of the planets and stars and their affect on us. Most traditional festivals are timed with planetary or moon positions. They did this because they understood that these events amplified prayer. This wasn't something quantified by any scientific process, but by an inner knowing that most of us have long lost touch with.
Two years ago, India was calling me. I had been thinking about going for some time and all of a sudden it became clear that now was the time. I made reservations, I booked a plane ticket, I was all set to go and then Logical Mind stepped up to the plate and gave me all kinds of reasons why this was a terrible idea. Fear was triggered and I cancelled everything. That night I woke up out of a sound sleep and heard my intuition say you have to go.
The feeling was so strong, I got up at 3AM and re-booked the entire trip. It ended up the best decision I could have made based on factors Logical Mind could never have known.
This year, India was calling me again and Logical Mind was all over the idea with reasons that it made perfect sense to go. But, I sat with it for a few weeks before booking and you know what? It didn't feel right. Intuition was saying no and I was able to trust that.
Intuition is the ability to know or understand something, regardless of logical reasoning. Our intuition is the most solid compass we can follow, but many of us are so ingrained with rational thinking, that we run in circles inside the mind, second guessing it.
Years ago, I had severed ties with my intuition. It was telling me something I didn't want to hear, so I blocked it out. I turned the dial to my logical mind to rationalize the decisions I was making. That worked for a while, until it became even logically apparent I was headed in a dangerous direction.
Re-establishing trust with my inner guidance system took time. There was a lot of panicked back and forth with different voices in my head questioning every decision I made. There was a lot of fear. But, slowly, I began to feel my way back to myself.
Trusting your intuition is only going to get more and more important as we continue to be inundated with conflicting and convoluted information out in the world. Do yourself a favor and start paying attention now.
