It has been a time of rapid personal growth and integration for me! I haven't been writing much in my blog because I feel as if I have been riding an incredible tidal wave of self-actualization. I've had the sense that there has hardly been a moment to pause and reflect through the written word.
So what's going on?
In short, I am rapidly realizing I am already the woman I hoped to one day become. I am living the life of my dreams and have the power to make it even more delicious, expansive and amazing. I am good enough. I know enough. I am wise enough. I am savvy enough. I have all the resources I need. This has dropped a level of urgency and passion into articulating my next steps as an inspirational author, speaker, coach and trainer. I've been awash in an ocean of amazing training courses lately with mentors and role models who are clearly demonstrating the next steps of how to move forward with my work.
So if you are noticing that I'm posting a bit less, that's why. A much bigger body of material is articulating within me that I am developing to share with a very, very large community of people. I've had the deep sense for some time that I have been "becoming the high priestess"...
Last night I got an amazing email from my dear friend Iris. She calculated my tarrot birth number for my upcoming birthday September 26 of this year. Guess what? The High Priestess! Below is what she sent. I have thrillbumps all over...
"Whenever one has the High Priestess as a growth symbol, there is the beginning of a long, nine-to-ten year cycle that emphasizes the process of creative self-sufficiency and individuation. During a High Priestess year, one evaluates who one is and who one is not. It is a year in which there is need for balance and harmony, requiring trust in one's own independence, self-resourcefulness, and perceptions. Often during a HIgh Priestess year, an individual will experience the emergence of a new identity. This year marks a period of independence during which one has little tolerance for being limited, restricted or restrained. One may find that there is a need to be on one's own or it may be that circumstances force one to be on one's own. It is a year during which one could be drawn to water areas and have a deep need to remove oneself from disharmonious situations." - WOW!
and the affirmations for the High Priestess are:
I deeply value and honor the human being that I am
I am a very perceptive and intuitive human being.
I trust myself and value my sense of integrity.
May we all activate and boldly live through the inner High Priestess we have within!
Love,
Christabel,
I just saw an interview with you in which you spoke of your story with hooping and the personal transformations you experienced. I have had a similar experience with hooping, it has brought me so much joy, and strength and helped me in so many way, spiritually, mentally, physically, emotionally. I wanted to thank you for sharing what you did on the interview (I'm totally spacing on who hosted it) and also for what you shared above. I believe reading this right now was perfectly timed for me, especially the bit about listening to your authentic self and pursing those activities which are "juicy and yummy" and resonate as being in alignment. I have opportunity to take part in several worthwhile endeavors, but my heart is not in it. I feel inspired to make the choices I know in my heart to be best now. Sometimes you just need to hear it from someone else. Thank you!
