Waking up to Great Change...Together.
Hello beautiful.
As we approach the Spring or Autumn Equinox, depending on where you live, one thing is for certain…change is in the air.
Whether you are stepping out of the introspection of Winter or the activity of Summer, the Spring and Autumn season offer us a new set of gifts.
This is a really beautiful time to pause, and observe where you are in life and what positive changes you want to make moving forward.
There is a collective change happening. More and more people are experiencing personal awakenings.
What does “awakening” really mean?
Experiencing a personal awakening is just that…it’s as individual as the person having the experience. But there are a few commonalities. When you wake up in a more expansive way a few things start to happen. The life you’ve always known or felt comfortable with in the past just doesn’t make sense to you anymore.
You may experience feelings like:
fear
disorientation
anger
depression
exhaustion or burnout
being in the void
When you awaken, questions like these arise, Is this all there is? Is this really what life is about? When can I make my dreams happen? Why are people so mean to each other? Can’t we all truly get along and be kind? Who am I…really? How do I want to live? What is important to me and what’s my true purpose? Why does this world feel so crazy? Am I going crazy? Why do I feel so alone in this?
After going through a lot of my own personal awakenings, especially over the past year, I can say I’ve felt all those feelings above. Change can be rough, confusing and frustrating. It’s especially hard when you have to trust, yet don’t know where the changes will lead you. That’s why so many of us stay in the place of comfort, even when we know it’s not good for us. Because we get caught in fear.
But there’s another side to the awakening process that makes it all worth it.
Feelings like:
clarity
inner and peace
enthusiasm
vitality and joy
unconditional love for self and others
a sense of purpose and true meaning
connection to your authentic self
creative inspiration
deep connection
You see, you chose to be here at this time in life. And this time in life may feel especially challenging right now because of all the change you’re experiencing, but there’s a major difference between now and the past. You are made for these changes. You are ready.
You are more powerful than you believe, more creative than you know and more connected than you realize.
We are moving towards the creative revolution.
The awakening we’re experiencing is helping us face our fears, discover old and new dreams and encouraging us to listen to our intuition, open our hearts to unlimited possibilities and feed our creative fire.
We are moving towards an age that celebrates our differences, that honors our unique gifts and that invites us to create the life of our dreams. These times seem especially rocky in the world because the darkness is being revealed, making way for more light.
And that light is coming from YOU.
The more YOU SHINE your authentic light in the world, the more we all awaken to the truth. And the truth is…YOU ARE DESIGNED TO SHINE. You are here for a reason and your dreams matter. You are creative and unique and we need your voice in this world.
I’m so excited for these times. I am loving seeing so many amazing souls claim their power and shine their light.
If these words speak to you, I’d love for you to join us in my new online community. It’s here where you’ll receive weekly inspiration, resources and support on your awakening path. You will meet others who are dedicated to living a life in alignment with their authenticity, intuition and creativity, too. (There’s a 7-day free trial to give it a try.)
There is still a pandemic of “aloneness” in our world. Yet, when you find a tribe of like-minded and like-hearted souls you can connect with, you realize we truly aren’t alone and that we are all connected.
We are all one. Let’s meet these changes…together.
If you sign-up and join my new online Patreon community at the 2-higher tiers, you’ll also get to participate in my upcoming class free as part of your membership: Intuitive Watercolor. This is a great class for total beginners and season artists looking for inspiration and community.
Or if you’d rather sign-up for Intuitive Watercolor and not join the community at this time, you can do that HERE. (Registration ends tonight!)
Whatever inspires you in the moment, follow it. Whatever speaks to your heart, listen to it. Whatever resonates in your body or tugs at your soul, know that those are little moments on your awakening journey to pay attention to.
You are here to live a life you love. Keep shining…
With love,
Shannon
