Lunar Living - The Portal to a Magical World
Share
The Moon affects the time, the tides, and the light on Earth. Because her energy is required to sustain life, it should be evident that syncing our lives with her cycles is a great way to create more harmony and balance in our days. When I started paying attention to the Moon's cycles (and mine), how I felt at the time, and the themes in my life, my inner and outer worlds changed almost magically. Things got better. I left a world of gloom and felt more hopeful because I could pinpoint how the Moon may have impacted my emotional balance. I began checking the Moon phase when I felt exhausted for no apparent reason or when I wanted to disconnect from the world without having an incident that caused the need for isolation. I made a personal 90-day journal, began tracking my results, and when I noticed positive progress in my manifestations, I created an annual Moon Manifestation journal to bring in the desires of my heart. Initially, it was a way to remain focused on my goals, and surprisingly, it worked better than I expected. I was producing results not just for myself, but also trusted friends that I shared the information with. Then I started incorporating lunar energy into every area of my life, from journaling and meditating to home décor and fashion styles, dramatically changing my mindset, self-love, menstrual cycles, sexuality, and bank account. It even changed my love life, which I wasn't focused on or anticipating. My mindset grew into determination and hopefulness. My love of self skyrocketed to the point that I see nearly no fault in me, not even my physical appearance, and at times this was a big challenge. My menstrual cycles improved due to increased self-love; I ate better and naturally made healthier food choices. I realized my desire to eat better and care for my body wasn't for vanity but to feel better. Feeling better became my every waking goal, and when I felt better - I felt better. I became more connected to Spirit, and I could begin to distinguish other people's emotions from my own. I am an Empath. I always knew this about myself, but I could not control it because I was always mistaking other people's emotions for my own. My sexuality soared because I unknowingly tapped into my divine feminine energy. By accepting myself fully, I gained the ability to receive from others. I am a giver by nature, so receiving was also an area I struggled in. Once I released some masculine energy because I was always taking care of everything and everyone but myself, even at work, I could receive in all areas of my life. I could take compliments from strangers and not deflect them. I could accept lunches and treats from co-workers without hesitation, even though I would often treat them. I began attracting pay-it-forward incidences where the car in front of me in the drive-thru would pay for my meal - this sometimes happened while standing in line at a coffeehouse. These situations may not seem like divine feminine energy, but they are because feminine energy is to receive - this does not mean the masculine is not to receive. After all, they are; I'm simply referring to feminine energy here, and that's a deeper subject, but I digress. Though I was single at the time and didn't have a masculine energy in my life to give to me, the Universe found ways for me to be given to and treated on a nearly daily basis. Those simple incidents made me feel better, and I was in a better mood. I stepped into my femininity and fell in love with all of me, the good, the bad, and the sometimes ugly, you know, those nasty internal feelings of doubt and drama, yep fell in love with those too. I began dressing up even more than I did daily and began to put myself out there to the world in full fledge me. I was already one to put time into my appearance, it's just what I love to do, but I was in the house a lot. I would only engage in a few fun outings because I'm prone to being a homebody. I'm just one who enjoys the comforts of my sanctuary, but I began to desire to go out. I wanted to share my incredible energy with the world and engage with new people. That led me to the person I'm with today. The relationship was unexpected and very different than any other. Still, I took my time and allowed my feminine energy the freedom to do its thing, and the relationship flowed into its destined path. Finally, I started the business I always wanted to start, which turned into two stores and changed my bank account, giving me a little more freedom. You may be skeptical about taking a leap of faith in yourself, following your dreams, or having the dedication to stay focused on your goals for a year because you are prone to procrastination or not finishing what you started. We all go through that, but if you can push through and pick up where you left off, it will still be worth it. Everything changes when you walk in the beauty of who you are, and Ms. Moon has helped me do that. Now, you may be thinking about how connecting to the Moon can change all these things in a person's life, and my answer may be something other than what you feel is possible or choose to believe. But it worked for me and others. If you devote yourself to accepting and growing into your divine feminine energy with Lunar Living, I am confident your life will progress positively. You may have tried many different things to advance your personal life and may not have reached the level you wanted - you still have time. A new year is approaching. Why not make this resolution the one where you don't start doing something, but stop denying yourself the privilege of walking in who you are now with complete acceptance and a vow to grow into your ultimate divine self no matter how long it takes?
