I wrote and deleted this so many times because I had so many revelations while writing. It was too much. I'm either too much or not enough 😂 In order to try to be in the middle, just cutting and pasting: ✨ An idea that seems to come out of nowhere. ✨ A feeling you suddenly know you can trust. ✨ A moment of inspiration. ✨ A deep sense of peace or reassurance. I maybe wouldn't have chosen this yesterday, but in this moment, it's what seems to be true. I've just come to the conclusion, in writing and deleting, that the bonkers ways that this stuff arrives in my outer world, like synchronicities, are not signs from my guides but something else.

@Niti Wade Aww thank you, Niti 💗 I haven't been able to figure out how to attribute my wild synchronicities to my guides. It didn't feel right, it seemed more spacetime related. Was does feel right, as of today, is that flow states maaaybe ripple out in ways that affect time and dimensionality, or my experience of it. My guides and higher self feel mostly involved in my inner world, in conversation. But I think that when I engage in my passions, or even just plow through my schedule like a functional person -- when I can flow, I kind of bring them with me, closer to the surface. Like we're all working in tandem and I'm bringing our collaborative work/activity into the 3D, in creative works, ideas, or literally just moving through the world. And I think that affects the spacetime continuum. And then everything starts popping off in the outside world. As of today, I don't think synchronicity is a sign of confirmation that I'm on the right path (unless I specifically ask for a sign), but rather that laying down the path through the walking of it affects the universe like a gravitational field would. I'm saying "I" and "me" and "my," but I feel like I'm channeling this and I kind of believe it's bigger. (I should say I do also think signs/communication coming through synchronicity is real.) That this is a why/what/how of us coming to live here. That maybe in collaborating with our guides and source through the passions we've grown in this life, if we all can ripple out enough, we "make the world a better place." And not leveling the world up just in positive change, but also dimensionally. This actually fits neatly into my belief that we probably created/are creating this place and it's our grand experiment.

This is my favorite! For the choosing to come back question, the combination of beliefs that come mostly from what I’ve learned and partially from what my guides have said are this: Our higher selves are learning. Always. Our guides are also still learning, they’re just more advanced than our higher selves and this is the job they chose. (Or job that chose them?) Our higher selves have vast information from our lives and their studies in the spirit world. BUT, do you ever have it — especially as we get older — where you know something but you suddenly realize, “ohhh now I get it…”? There’s the thing you knew theoretically but suddenly you now get it experientially. There’s also the latent knowledge, where you have an epiphany (for me it’s often about my childhood/relationship traumas informing things I do now) and it’s like, “I of course knew this somewhere but for some reason I never articulated or synthesized it until now.” And there’s the song (or other creative work) you always loved, maybe since childhood, and you listen to it while you’re going through something and it’s like, “Woah this song suddenly makes sense, I KNOW what it’s about now!” This is why we’re here to learn. The higher self is kind of the brain (funny to say since we’re always talking about us as the brain and our HS as the soul), and we’re like its nerves on the ground, sucking up the experiences, stimuli, and reactions and reporting back, and they process it with us. Us doing that is a big aspect of how they grow. I believe our guides are our teachers in spirit world, but also are growing through teaching and helping us on Earth. And Earth is supposedly a very hard school, like we’re getting our doctorates. So the more we learn, the more everyone learns, and they are learning together, so what we pick up here spreads. Also, I kind of think we create worlds, and that we feel a responsibility to advance those creations through our interactions. And maybe when we feel like we’ve learned what makes a world worth living in, we try new creations.

Also, since source is both literally the source AND something so vast, it’s probably more expedient to call upon our closer relationships (our HS and guides) and some “experts” (everyone has specialties!) instead of tapping into source. Source would seem more expedient since it’s everything, but I think maybe it’s just too much. I wonder if as our HS grows, we become better suited to interacting with specific aspects of source. Though, I guess, we’re all different aspects of source. Hahaha see? Source is too meta 😂

@Carey Kaas haha I love that!

Oh, I think that means you're moving! The DMV thing is pretty funny, but they know what you really meant 😜 I love when this happens. It's like, "You keep asking, and I keep telling you." Which is a good confirmation or call to action. It's especially cool when a card that was big in one reading pops up again in a totally different context as if they're saying, "If you do that one thing I told you about, that will also change this storyline." A really cool one just happened to me. I asked for an outcome in a reading the other night and got the Sun. Then, when I shuffled the deck to clear it like I always do at the end of a reading, no matter how I shuffled and cut and reshuffled the deck, the Sun was either at the bottom of the deck or at the bottom of the half where I cut it. It was maybe 4 times. I think they (or higher me) knew there was no way I was believing the Sun was coming out of that situation 😂 I was cracking up, it felt like a wild game of peek-a-boo 🫣☀️🫣☀️🪄

I'm so happy that it's lilac o'clock somewhere! And this cottonwood is giving the spirits of The Good Place. Which, in my opinion, is one of the most brilliant shows in TV history.

@Alex T you just inspired me to post a question about everyone’s growth 🤓

@Megan M That’s awesome! Are they intentions that you’re just intuitively setting? I need to have a good conversation with myself and spirit before bed, rather than hoping a guided meditation will get me there. And probably to create an intentional practice.
