Navigating the Narrows

We are currently navigating the narrows, the place in the river where massive amounts of water are squeezed through a narrow passageway and eventually find its way to more open spaces. This is a metaphor for life right now as we are energetically being squeezed through the narrows to shear off all that no longer serves us. It feels emotionally uncomfortable and the longer we dwell in this space the more intolerable it becomes. We all have things we hold onto because letting go causes us emotional pain and discomfort. Our heart knows what we need to do but our mind resists. The Ego/mind rooted in fear drives many choices we make in life and justifies decisions to remain stuck and repeating the same cycles. We feel powerless but we are the only ones who can pivot and shift ourselves into a new reality.

We are experiencing a complete global reset, everything about our lives is changing. Earth is ascending and everyone is ascending to some degree with her. Earth’s frequency is rising. Ascension is the raising of vibrational frequency which aligns with and creates higher dimensional realities. Dimensions are levels of consciousness that vibrate at specific frequencies. Our human experience resonates with our current personal vibration (the vibratory rate is different for everyone) creating everything from Heaven on Earth down to the lower harmonics of chaos and struggle. Many of our outdated and inefficient foundational structures are being leveled to make way for a new reality. Education is changing, our business models, values and I believe our priorities are changing. Higher dimensional frequencies being accessed now on our planetary surface demand Truth. We are seeing many emotionally charged topics being brought to the surface like a big reveal. Awareness will ultimately lead to new solutions for these crumbling paradigms.

Every time we rise to a new dimensional space, we must navigate the narrows. We are pressed to become more aligned with our truth which results in higher vibrations in our energy field and creation of more flow. As we shed density (which is the karmic debris weighing us down from past lives and current life choices) we rise. We are tasked with looking internally at all the emotional wounds we are carrying and the deepest darkest shame stories to see where we are responding to life from these wounded places. Typically responding from a wounded place creates trauma, projection, drama, anger, and more karma. Here is where choice comes in to elevate our reaction to external events and bring our awareness back to our inner being. Getting curious around what these triggers are about for us is the key, and from there we can look at the emotions and healing demanding our attention. Only through feeling and opening of our hearts can we eventually let go of things holding us back. The healing comes in layers and takes time and intention, it demands humility and acceptance, as well as massive amounts of love and kindness through the process.

As we shed and release karma we move through spaces that feel tight and uncomfortable. We are being tasked with letting go of everything no longer in resonance with our higher vibration. This release allows us to emerge into another higher level of existence and vibration. We often make choices driven by feelings of unworthiness or the need for acceptance. These feelings slow the rate of spin and vibration in our energy fields creating a lower vibrational reality which then slows our ascent as we allow our Ego to take the wheel. The need to please others at our own expense cost us our passions and purpose. When we are in this space we cannot move through to the next dimensional space. We remain stuck in old patterns and lower vibrational experiences.

Too often we compromise ourselves in the pursuit of success. Our worth is inherent, and our true currency is love, there is nothing to reach for or achieve. What we are seeking is ourselves. When we reach that place of unconditional love for ourselves, our ability to create and manifest becomes instant. Everything we experience is in vibratory resonance. We attract what we are on the inside, so the secret is to tap into this abundant well of pure love and begin creating a life we want to live. Once the connection is made to our authentic selves and we become aligned with our soul, the light within will seep out and joy will follow. Drama will fade and everything that seemed impossible becomes possible.

Life is easier as we emerge through those tough narrow spaces, not because life challenges diminish, but because we achieve a level of mastery over ourselves. We become sovereign in our being. Being Sovereign we honor ourselves, and we stand strong and resolute in our power, strength, and alignment. We light the candle of another without diminishing our own. Choosing to align with things that are in resonance with our truth is how we return to love. We must choose ourselves in all things which may feel uncomfortable because we are programmed to believe this is selfish. The only way to become whole and complete is to detach from public opinion, delete the programming, and find the courage to speak and live our truth. Now is the time for us to take the wheel and return to our authentic soul self. This is the push pull many are feeling and resisting. The Ego is fighting valiantly, as people wake up to the incredible light of their own being. We have lingered too long in the shallows merely dipping our toe in the spiritual ocean. We seek fulfillment everywhere except where our soul resides which is within. We have been filling a void that cannot be filled by anything external to ourselves. We are on the threshold of a new world and it begins with the choices we make. The opportunity to create a better life is here amidst the chaos in our current world, but everyone must choose to do the work, to clear the karma, and squeeze through the narrow passages to our next level of existence.
