Ask For A Sign
Last week, I talked about asking the Universe for support. I talked about trusting that life could be easier, and that instead of ruminating over decisions and communications, dreading movement and feeling stuck, we could move forward with ease. But what if sometimes, you're carrying something so heavy that you just don't know what to do or you're frozen because you think you should make a decision, but it's a decision that you might not want to make? (If the Universe does not work for you, insert God or the deity/energy force that speaks to you).
When I find myself in these situations, I ask the universe for a sign.
So last week I was talking about being open to receiving guidance from the Universe. This week I want to talk about asking for direction when you are consciously making decisions but there's still unhappiness or uncertainty.
Lately, I have been involved with some people and some situations that I've noticed are depleting my energy. There is one situation specifically where my emotions feel like they have been on the newest ride at Cedar Point, up and down, up and around and super fast all over the place.
I thought I knew the choice that I needed to make but I felt like there were still a lot of things about the situation that were serving me, so instead of quitting and walking away, I asked for a sign.
Ok, not actually true, because in this instance, I thought I knew what the Universe would say. Silly me:) I was hiking in the woods and I knew that I should ask the Universe for a sign about a change I felt I should make. I thought that maybe I knew what the Universe was going to say and it didn't want to hear the answer that I didn't want to hear. I literally thought to myself and the Universe, “Universe, I'd ask you to show me a heron flying overhead by the end of the weekend if it's in my best interest to continue on with _______________ but I'm not going to ask you because I don't think I'm going to like your answer.”
So the thing about the Universe is that it knows what's best for you even when you don't. Within a few hours, said heron flew right in front of my windshield. It was an undeniable sign. And because I got in my head about how I didn't really ask for the sign in the first place, the Universe showed me four more herons over the course of the next few hours.
Believe what you may, but I believe this. And, so when the person contacted me just a few hours later, I knew my answer.
What is my point? Forward with ease. If you have a heavy decision, you can stay stuck in the uncertainty, ruminating and expending energy. Or, you can make a decision and ask for a sign. What's great about it?
Once you make a decision you stick with it and then you don't have to carry the heaviness of the uncertainty around any more. Your energy and vibrations rise higher and feeling good about your decision frees up energy to expend on other more meaningful and productive endeavors.
Here's how it works. Ask the universe for a sign. First pick a sign. It could be a deer crossing the road, a heron flying over your car, your favorite song on the radio... Then ask your question. It could be about your career, a relationship, whether to sell your house.. It doesn't matter how big or small the situation is. Then watch the Universe reveal itself.
Now you may ask, what if you don't see your sign? That too, is a sign, my friend. It's like receiving a huge universal yes or no. And in the meantime, it allows you to let go of carrying all of the heavy thoughts and ruminations that can weigh you down and keep you stuck.
Don’t believe me, give it a try. What is there to lose? And, playing with the Universe will get you away from the heavy thoughts and you will feel your energy and vibrations rise.
Big Love,
Traci
