No, there is no
guardian angel, energetic provider, or silent partner for this situation. Do
you want there to be?
As the Earth goes
through its metamorphosis, and as we all go through our own transformational
storms, it becomes more and more important to ask for what we want. Especially
for those of us who carry a sense of personal responsibility like a shield.
After all, there are plenty of times we don't want anyone shielding us, sending
us that little extra bit of light or energy, treating us (we feel) like a child
or precious cargo. Grrr. Right? Right.
And the Universe
says, excellent.
But that means that
when we do need that little extra helping hand, communication, or shield, we
have to ask for it.
Do you know the
awesome thing about asking for help? You get to be specific about what you
want. Sometime people offer help, but their skills do not match your needs at
all. Their energy has nowhere to go, no place in your situation. But when you
ask for help, you get to say - I need this extra surge of energy at this time,
to accomplish this specific task. And sure, I have time to hang out and have
pizza afterward.
So, if you're facing
your situation and wondering if it's moving along so well because of an extra
little push from the Universe, the answer is no. It's all you, baby!
But if you're
wondering why your situation isn't improving, or growing, perhaps it's because
you have given all you can give, and it's time to ask for help.
This week AlgizR is
saying, there is no extra energy guarding or guiding you. So, how do you feel
about that?
********************************
I pull a rune for
myself to warm up before doing other readings. And my rune for the day was
Algiz (not Reversed.)
Algiz was pointing
directly at me, instead of out into the Universe. Which I interpreted as me
being the one giving the energy, instead of the one receiving it.
Now, if you're like
me, you believe that we are all "the Universe". You feel The Universe
is made up of all the bits of matter and energy that permeate its space. So we
all get to direct what happens, have a say, make a request. And we are all tools
of the Universe also, to fulfill others' requests. To be the guardian angels
and energy providers to those who need it.
Sometimes we do
these things physically - like stopping when we see someone with a flat tire,
or providing direct energy work. But we don't have to get physical to be the
answer to a prayer. After all, not all of our needs are physical, are they?
Finding that second wind; walking safely to an outlet store; surviving Black
Friday sales unscathed. These are all things we would attribute to outside
assistance - whether you call it God, or angels, or luck. And we can provide
that for others, just by sending our energy out into the world, to answer a
request for help. To be used as needed.
Our connections are
awesome and vast and amazing, if we just let them be.
One of my favorite
passages is from a book called Paladin
of Souls by Lois McMaster Bujold. A woman in having a conversation with
her God, and she asks why it took so long for her prayer for help to be
answered. And the God replies that he directed many people down that road, but
there was only one who chose to go the full distance.
Which is awesome. We
get to choose what we do. We get to choose how we help! And if we feel the call
to help, we don't need to run out and find someone with a flat tire . We can
simply send the a connecting energy, to refuel the person who is asking for assistance.
Which, given the way
time and space work, could be ourselves in the future. Or the past. Hmm.
I hope you have a
great day!
