This post discuss the very conducive energies of this year to engaging your creative side, and how this is an ideal time to act on and bring forward your highest visions and your heart’s dreaming.
Since the beginning of February, 2014 we have entered in to the Year of the Green Horse (within the cycle of chinese astrology). You may have already noticed that the energies of this year are a lot more supportive for engaging your vision and passion and allowing your big projects and creative ideas to unfold. This is so different from the sense of constriction and challenge that marked our day to day experience in the years immediately preceding this one. A client and friend who is contemplating a significant change shared this with me last week..
“I feel so positive about the prospect of a move. It feels like a cloud is lifting. I sense there is great energy behind it all and I sense the universe is encouraging me to embrace change and move on to the next adventure.”
What big adventure do you sense you are being called to give your energy and passion to at this time? We have in a sense passed the point of having to push against strong walls of resistance, and now is a great time for committing to and taking action. What is your pet project? Is there a passion or a vision for change that have you been secretly harbouring? If you have been holding yourself back in any way, I invite you to visit these dreams and give them space to unfold, to act on them as you are being guided to do and to embrace the changes that this will likely call for you to make.
The drive to engage our biggest passions and vision will inevitably see us being faced with challenges as well. Even with the energy of the Green Horse behind us, there is a lot still left for us to do and be mindful about! Some of the specific challenges include:
- Ensuring we put in place appropriate structures and boundaries that support what we desire to create and to see manifested in our realities.
- Working with our natural rhythms in deciding when we move in to outward action ie when energy and inspiration is flowing, and being mindful of natural down times and ebbs in energy when we are better attending to self care, and doing things that are nourishing or just plain simply fun.
- As we move toward and reach higher with our visions, we are inevitably faced with a lot of uncertainty. Tuning in to intuition and confidently acting on your intuitive guidance is how we can best relate to uncertainty. As we take action on what we are intuitively guided to do, we begin to see more of the bigger picture as well as how we can get there, and the next steps we can take will appear.
- Being in right relationship to the moment, so we are not engaging in busy action that gets us nowhere. When we do find ourselves pushing in a direction that is not working, it is a helpful reminder to exercise more self love and compassion. This is an opportunity to get silent so you are able to listen in to your inner voice again, as well as remembering to stay balanced, grounded and aligned with the Heart and the energies of the Higher Self.
- Making sure we reach out for support and help from others who are able to help us take our next steps. Making big changes is a always a co-creative and a collaborative process, and we are all in this together!
The big vision I am referring to here is not merely about a change in external circumstances, though it may likely include that, as much as it is about expressing and bringing to life more of your innate talents, passions, gifts and skills, of expressing more of who you already are. When you pursue this vision and your hearts calling, it will not only bring you joy, but also allow you to make a difference to others on the planet. Your dream or vision may be something simple that you are already doing and want to give more attention to, such as indulging your favourite hobby, or signing up to a rock climbing or an art or pottery class, or it could be something completely life altering and a decision that you are going to finally go forward and take the next step with your dream business or change your career, or move to a new city, or return to nature.
As you reach for the sky, call up your vision, fuel your plans with creativity, find a fresh path and pace yourself well. Higher guidance is with us every step of the way.
