Hello Lovelies,
I hope you were able to enjoy the full moon in Taurus on Friday breaking you out of your comfort zone. Today, November 19th, is the end of a 16 year transit with Pluto and Uranus and the beginning of the Age of Aquarius, which we will be in for the next 20 years. Aquarius energy is all about breaking free from both external and internal limitations and reclaiming our uniqueness and individuality. As we bring our authentic self to this new timeline and expand from the inside out, how can we bring more of ourselves into community to lift each other up.
I have mentioned many times that when we fill up our own cup, we are more able to fully care for our loved ones more intentionally and openly. I have taken some time to do just that. I have been wallowing in the muck for a while now in uncertainty. I see lotus sprouts happening around me, knowing that only the lotus flower grows beautifully out of the shit and muck.
I have been doing this work long enough to know moments pass and beautiful things grow from almost impossible situations and shit we have been sifting through. I feel like I am starting over - again, but this time my backpack is full of the lessons and wisdom I have gathered up until now.
I have been jumping off cliffs now for the last 7 years. You would think I would be used to the thrill and adventure. Each time I know it is all good. It is necessary. It doesn't make it any easier to digest or process. This time feels different than any other time. I'm not alone in this. I have tools and the wisdom and the faith that allows me to continue to jump. Complacency doesn't look good on me, although I continue to crave it. Once I'm there, I feel like there is more.
I learned early on that I am a curious person. I like to see how things work and how people function and have loved being a steward of this life. So now I am in the in between once more. Learning how to be grateful and patient for this time of isolation and pause. Knowing nothing is permanent and everything can change in a heartbeat. What a gift life is to offer such an opportunity, regardless of what it is that shakes up the system so much that we break down and learn to live differently, and be more beneficial to ourselves and humanity. Filling up our cup one moment at a time.
Change is not for the faint of heart. It is an adjustment, a course correction and an intention to go where you have never been before. Everything is an opportunity to be more. More for myself, more for all my loved ones. More. Because, bottom line, I deserve more and so does everyone. We have to be brave to jump not knowing where we are going to land, but knowing ourselves well enough that everything is happening for a reason and we will land more intact with a deeper connection to ourselves and life. When we decide to go into the abyss of the unknown, we gain so much more than we anticipated and life takes the call and presents us with more opportunities than we could have ever imagined.
Here is a beautiful passage that describes this space perfectly.
It is okay to be in this space. The transition, the messy middle, the space in between. You've moved on but you haven't yet arrived. You've left behind what you needed to, but the puzzle pieces haven't all yet come together. There is messiness. There is waiting. There is uncertainty. You are wanting to rush but everything is moving slow. You are wondering if you will get to where you want to go. But where you are is perfect. The messy middle is for doors to close and new doors to open. This transition period is where things come undone so that they can be put back together. This is a season of just being, of trusting. This is a season to pause and take a breath. Have love for yourself, you are exactly where you need to be.

Yes! We are exactly where we need to be. In fact, I will be practicing out of a new space starting in December at 4578 So. Highland Drive on Fridays. I look forward to seeing y'all in my new space. There will be more details and specials for the holidays. In the meantime, everything is still 10% off at cnbessentials.com until the end of November.
Thank you for your time and allowing me to share life moments as they occur. Please let me know if you no longer want to receive these emails in the future. Enjoy this beautiful energy that is coming in and remember to fill up your cups so much so that they runneth over.
All my love,
Colette
