Stabilize During A Shocking Event
This self-care formula uses the Intuitive Learning Circle method to stabilize during a shocking event when you are:
- Living through a shocking event
- Experiencing an environmental disaster
- Disoriented by personal or environmental upheaval
- Feeling scattered, surprised, scared or vulnerable
- Exposed to repeated emergency situations
- Witnessing traumatic experiences
- Having trouble thinking or planning clearly.
Our SOS self-care formulas are a form of self-hypnosis combined with energy healing that has been used for resolving shock, enhancing inner guidance and facilitating positive change since 2001. This particular formula offers a gentle opportunity to process ongoing difficult experiences, manage emotional stress and explore positive ways to respond to unexpected and shocking events.
Any person who’s going through extreme weather related events or a crisis in their environment can experience disorientation, numbness, mental confusion or fragmentation. Even people who are witness to traumatic experiences can get caught up in the energy of the event. That includes family members, friends, therapists, clergy and other emergency responders.
The shock response is natural and not a sign of spiritual, mental or emotional weakness. It’s an important way that the mind protects itself. Nevertheless, if a person who’s going through a shocking event doesn’t get a chance to relax and separate from the experience – or if they’re not able to – serious problems can develop, including ongoing symptoms of ptsd including nightmares, flashbacks and a chronic fear of the future.
Scattered energy and a constant state of fight or flight takes its toll over time. Statements like: “I can’t think of anything positive,” “My life was shattered,” “I feel so drained” or “I just don’t know what to do,” describe the experience of ongoing, unresolved shock. Alternately, a person may put on a false front of cheerfulness and optimism, only to have their health suffer later.
If any of the above seems familiar, you can go through this formula to help you stabilize your mind and access your own innate healing abilities. Simply follow the directions step by step so you can monitor your energy and take the steps that are needed to move forward safely.
Mind Body Integration
The brain and body communicate through different channels when a part of you is crossed over the center of your body. As you go through the steps, cross and uncross a hand or foot over the midline of your body when you gaze at each Circle. Use a soft focus and breathe patiently. This will help you integrate your thinking more fully so that you can be more creative. If you have any negative self-talk, let it go by breathing through it.
Feel free to move at anytime in any way to help you embody your experience!
Stabilize During a Shocking Event
Step One:
Take several deep breaths and relax while you look at this Circle that releases shock and inner conflict.
Imagine you can use it to focus in on a difficult or painful experience that’s blocking your way. If your mind is blank, focus on how “blank” it is. You may get a conscious image or message, or you may not.
Once you have a sense that your mind has found the blockage, imagine that it’s like an iceberg and the Sun is melting it away with a beautiful beam of light.
Allow it to melt until it’s completely gone.
Check for other blockages, worries or conflicts that you can do the same with.
Step Two:
In situations like this, there’s too much going on and you don’t want to scatter. Your mind may have too many windows open – like on a computer screen.
Let this Circle help you close the tabs in your mind to help you feel better and more contained.
Step Three:
The environment is changing and you need to protect yourself. Relax with this symbol and close down all harmful energy channels that your mind or body may be open and vulnerable to. Take all the time that you need.
If you like, ask your Soul for divine protection.
Step Four:
Remember to stay hydrated. Make sure you’re drinking plenty of fresh water. If you swish it around in your mouth before you swallow, the water will go where it needs to go faster and more efficiently.
Water is your good friend. Especially now!
Step Five:
Consider all that’s going on in your life. A lot is changing.
Use this Circle to gently contemplate the situation so you can gather up your mental, emotional, spiritual and physical resources.
What is the most important thing for you to keep in mind?
Step Six:
Your senses may have gotten knocked out of balance. Reconnect with them and focus on being present. Use them to become aware of your body and what you need right now.
Re-orient yourself in your environment, as it is now.
Take whatever time you need to focus on actions that will bring you back into balance and benefit your well-being. You may want to write ideas down because it’s easy to forget.
Step Seven:
Your energy probably needs some balancing. Go through this short sequence to make repairs and get back in order:
A) Get help clearing your energy field of toxins. Use this Key to relax and mend any energetic wounds that are associated with smoke, chemicals or other negative energies.
Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
B) When a person is under extreme stress, their energy can become blocked, scattered, reversed or even shut down completely.
Let this Key help you make corrections and repair any glitches, holes or jagged energies in your system.
Keep relaxing with it until the energy smooths out and you begin to sense the calming energy of your Soul coming through.
C) Keep your wits about you. Clear away dark and heavy thoughts.
Use this Circle to imagine you can infuse your body with light and Love. Doing so will help to remove fear, negativity and darkness from your personal energy.
Dispense with the darkness by sending it to the Light for purification.
D) Bring your attention to your own heart center. Imagine you can connect with your Source and activate the Light that lives within you.
You are never alone.
Step Eight:
Now it’s time to turn down the volume on all the noise from outside. As you breathe deeply, let this Circle help you to adjust the volume and pitch of your senses to just the right level.
Not too high and not too low – just right.
Soon you will be able to hear that calm, gentle voice inside that reminds you about what matters the most to you.
Let yourself be sad if you need to be. Tears are a sign of letting go of shock.
Step Nine:
It also helps to open and close your hands to get more present. Move your fingers and wiggle your toes around. Notice the time and where you are. These actions all help whenever you want to stabilize during a shocking event.
Step Ten:
Now you can let your nervous system calm down too. Slow down and listen to the rhythm of your heart.
You’re feeling better with every breath you take.
Stretch or move around in any way that you instinctively feel you need.
Step Eleven:
Oftentimes, going through a shocking event requires a change in priorities. There may be certain plans, ideas or thoughts that take you back into extreme distress. You can use this symbol for dissolving destructive blueprints to help you identify them and dissolve whatever is distressing you.
Simply imagine that the negative patterns in your mind are like dark clouds or a tangled maze of confusion.
Surrender the darkness into the pure light of the Sun and let the maze dissolve completely.
You’ll know that you’re done when your mind feels clear enough to imagine standing in a beautiful field with the Sun shining down upon you.
Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!
Step Twelve:
Before you finish with this formula, take a minute to seal and heal any holes, leaks or passageways that have opened up during this process.
All harmful openings are sealed and healed.
Do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body.
Your mind and nervous system need closure.
Step Thirteen:
Finally, let your heart recover. This Key helps you balance your heart energy and clear away any residual heaviness. Breathe deeply and take your time.
Feel any remaining heaviness lifting up and out of your heart. Let it radiate out to the Light where it can be transformed.
Take care of yourself and remember that you are loved.

How To Turn Things Around
Welcome to Part II of How To Do the Right Thing and Turn Things Around
In Part I of this game, you examined your part of a CONFLICT and now you think you’re ready to turn things around.
Let’s evaluate where you are with it…
Do you still have the feeling that you’re about to do something you’ll regret?
Are you concerned that you’re not doing something you really ought to do?
Do you feel like you’ve straightened out your thinking so you can do the right thing?
How does that feel?
If you feel good about what you’ve done so far, congratulations.
One door has been closed so that another can open!
Part Two: Help Me Turn Things Around!
Now that you’ve let go of your part of the CONFLICT, it’s time to empower the RESOLUTION.
Before you begin, let’s just make sure that you’re centered and truly ready to empowered to get help in the New Paradigm.
Ask Otter Medicine to help you get centered within yourself.
Are you clear now about what you’re asking yourself to do? Take what ever time you need to re-orient yourself. Conflicts can really pull you in a lot of different directions. Are you facing True North and heading towards the Light?
Are you going for joy or something else? Ask yourself:
“In this situation, what do I really want to do?”
Once you have it, place the words or image for what you want in the center, open space of Otter’s Circle and begin sending energy from your solar plexus to it.
Once you’ve got that, Otter will reciprocate and send energy back to you.
Have you added fun to the ingredients? What about gratitude, respect, objectivity, harmony and trust?
You may not have them right now, but you can include them in your request if you’re open to receiving them.
Now you’re ready to continue with How to Turn Things Around:
Remember that your resolution is not necessarily a resolution for others. You cannot resolve other people’s issues for them. That’s something only they can do for themselves.
Gaze softly at Fish Medicine and contemplate your situation again. Where are you with it now? Ask yourself:
“Am I still in troubled waters here? What direction am I heading?”
Are you heading down into the darkness, going around in circles or do you feel empowered to move onward and upwards?
Is something holding you or pulling you back against your free will?
If you could request anything at all, without restriction, what would it be?
“What do I need to help me do the right thing?”
It will really help you to open up to generative, life energy that comes from the Element of Air in the New Paradigm. Allow your Essence to be filled with Divine Protection.
“I am open and clear to receive generative life force.”
“I close down all harmful energy channels from the past.”
Get centered and ask your Essential Self:
“Am I willing to connect with new lines of communication?”
Make corrections again if need be.
Are you grounded in the New Paradigm?
Do you have adequate protection?
Would you like a good dose of courage and confidence?
If so, add them to your request.
While we’re improving the line of cooperative communication, would you like your Throat Chakra to be open and balanced out so that your words are strong and RESOLUTE? Ask for it! After all, saying the right thing and doing the right thing are inter-related.
Here are some powerful suggestions:
“I dedicate the power of my voice to Love, life and balanced prosperity.”
“I direct my words towards those who can and will benefit.”
“I communicate the right words to the right people at the right time.”
“I am inspired to say the right thing.”
Is there anything else that you’d like to articulate?
Would you like your Soul to help you shine some light on peaceful, prosperous solutions?
Contemplate the Divinity Chakra Key and make note of the different impressions you get.
If you would like these things and you have a copy of The Essential Human, you might want to go through Calibrating the Meridians to Higher Frequencies on p. 106.
These affirmations work well:
“I exist and am empowered to make the changes needed to turn things around.”
“I have the strength to RESOLVE this CONFLICT for myself.”
“I let other people handle their own part.”
Let a strong connection between your thinking and your spiritual guidance to protect and support you in your new RESOLUTION.
Keep relaxing with this symbol until you feel very protected from above.
Finally! It’s time to make a RESOLUTION to overcome your difficulties and turn things around by making progress in a unified and productive direction. Gently formulate some positive affirmations about how you can follow through now and do things in a way that will really benefit you. Write them down so you remember to follow through! For example:
“I make a RESOLUTION to relax and grow in the direction of my general good.
I look to my Soul to help me to do the right thing.”
“In this situation, doing the right thing is ___________and _____________.”
“I can turn things around by __________ and ______________.”
See yourself taking the appropriate actions. Remember that actions speak louder than words.
Congratulations!
It isn’t always easy to turn things around, yet if you’re willing to make a change for the better – anything is possible!

Challenged By Obstacles
Intuitive Reading from the I Ching or Book of Change: Challenged by Obstacles.
In this intuitive reading, Soul Resources offers a variety of SOS formulas and Transformation Games using the Intuitive Learning Circles and the I Ching to offer constructive advice when we’re challenged by OBSTACLES.
The I Ching
The original intent of the I Ching was based on an Eastern philosophy of observation and marking changes in natural and human events. Through many centuries and contributions from shamans and master teachers, including Lau Tzu and Confucius, the Book of Change was developed into a full philosophy for applying beneficial human conduct to varying circumstances. The Art of Feng Shui is part of that philosophy. We use The I Ching Workbook, by R.L. Wing, Random House, NYC, NY, 1979 as our preferred translation.
The I Ching Energy ~
Throughout much of late spring and summer, the I Ching energy flow for the United States was in a general state of DANGER, Hexagram #29. Then, on July 21st, the full moon ushered in a surprisingly active flow pattern of CHANGING (Hexagram #49) that opened up a series of unexpected opportunities and positive energy to make significant advances towards freedom.
Now, the energy has gone through a series of CONTRADICTIONS and moved into the flow of #39 OBSTACLES. As a part of this path we have chosen, we are challenged by a massive wave of collective karma that needs to be met with courage and realistic thinking. Extravagant flights of fancy and wishful thinking are being crushed by the realities facing us. Although the OBSTACLES are daunting, the I Ching offers some useful guidance:
“In all worldly paths, OBSTACLES appear naturally throughout the course of time. In matters of power and politics, obstructions must be overcome as they arise if you are to continue on your way. The correct approach requires a certain amount of cunning, for you must either organize a following or align yourself with established leadership in order to prepare an assault. In business concerns, now is an excellent time to hire those who can help you. Or perhaps you should consider joining forces with another. Look for qualities of leadership in these people, qualities that can surmount OBSTACLES standing in the way of longterm objectives.
A more conscientious approach to social matters is required now. The ability to be in the right place at the right time has never been more useful. If you have the opportunity to join with others who inspire you or can help you with your endeavors, do so. Also, turn your attention inward in social situations and notes those OBSTACLES you create for yourself.
Many of your external OBSTACLES are, in fact, internally generated. Whether you create them in the process of acting out internal conflicts, or instinctively choose paths fraught with certain difficulties, they must nevertheless be overcome. These struggles will take place within the Self. Often referred to as inhibitions, such OBSTACLES will block your progress. Yet if you focus your awareness on them and persevere in constructive and positive thoughts, you will experience great good fortune as your developing character strengthens and prepares itself.” ~ Hexagram #39 OBSTACLES, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing, Random House, NYC, NY, 1979
The whole purpose of studying the I Ching in the first place is to help us recognize different life flows, learn how to use them and plan appropriately, so that we may cooperate with the planet and each other more effectively. Hopefully, our study will help us unite and make effective plans when we are challenged by the OBSTACLES we face.
Understanding the Larger Picture ~
There are a lot of hidden aspects about how we interact with ourselves, each other and the planet that are being processed within a patriarchal lens or mindset. The status quo is understandably the framework that our habits, perceptions and beliefs are built around. However, the New Paradigm that we’ve entered requires us to wake up about how unconscious patterns and self destructive habits are poisoning our ability to create Common Ground for the Common Good.
Since we’re no longer being governed by the Water based Element of the Piscean Age, a profusion of fast moving chi’ no longer has the buffer of Water to smooth, soothe, complicate or slow down events. We are now fully in the Age of Aquarius where the primary movement of life force comes through the Element of Air, which is much faster, lighter and quick to change.
In this paradigm shift, the Law of Karma or cause and effect is amplified and very quick to manifest. That means that the old “rules” about fighting – attack and defense – no longer work and are actually pulling us deeper into the chaos and confusion that we so wish to avoid.
By engaging in emotionally based behaviors such as casting spells, spewing curses, or organizing movements based on hatred for the other, we continue to manifest our own OBSTACLES that are increasingly more abrupt, irrational and “in our face”. This is called karmic backlash and will continue to be a profound source of the many OBSTACLES we’ll meet in the coming months.
Is it possible to find more productive ways to organize your own intentions and energy so that something more peaceful and prosperous can happen?
If you can manage to stay present and centered within yourself, you’ll have a much better chance of determining what’s actually best for you. By objectively observing what’s working and what’s not, you’ll build the courage to choose differently – to stand up for yourself so you can take genuinely productive actions without all the karmic backlash. The keys here are to develop self-care habits that strengthen good boundaries, balance and stability.
Meeting Obstacles with The Chinese Zodiac
2024 is the Year of the Yang Wood Dragon in the Chinese Zodiac.
Positive Qualities: Energetic. Confident. Ambitious. Intelligent. Generous.
Challenging Qualities: Unstable. Intolerant. Lack of persistence. Unrealistic.
The Dragon’s Feng Shui Mandala below can give you a sense of what the archetype of the Dragon is about and how it may influence you. If you’re interested, gently contemplate its center and relax. When you’re ready, ask yourself these questions and journal the answers that come:
“What is the most important thing I can focus my energy and effort on during this time in the Year of the Dragon?”
“What is the direction? Why is that important?
How can I utilize the energy of the Dragon to my best advantage?
Are there things I’m wasting time on? Something else I need to know?
Is there something important for me to do?
If so, can I tell what it is and how I would best go about doing it?”
Allow your intuition to come forward and bring guidance from your innermost Self.
Invite the Dragon archetype and his dynamic energy to advise you as you navigate change and the OBSTACLES in your own life.
A) Any new path can have distractions, dangers and opportunities that you cannot see clearly. However Dragon warns, “This is too important a time to get bogged down or fall into a hole. Gather your courage and ability to see straight. If you need extra help, call on my energy and confidence. I have plenty to spare.”
B) Transforming change that’s motivated by Joy and Freedom, rather than fear and dread is a wonderful and worthwhile pursuit. Especially when you’ve met with OBSTACLES that make it easy for old habits and conditioning to sneak back in and sabotage any progress that’s been made. Dragon wants to share some important insights about how to keep Joy in the forefront of your mind. Keep Going For Joy – Rather than Perfection.
C) The current OBSTACLES might ensnare you into taking actions that aren’t in your best long term interests. Keep yourself out of trouble’s way by using your extra-intuitive senses. Develop Precognition and Stay Out of Trouble.
D) Finally, there may be others who are threatening you or trying to erode your confidence. If someone is getting to you, get them out of your space immediately: Ground in the Truth and Your Power.
What kind of advice is recommended when we are challenged by OBSTACLES?
Once we ask for something we’ve never had before and take action on it, the Universe presents us with all the reasons why we haven’t been able to manifest it before. Past karma, both collective and individual is likely behind many of the OBSTACLES we’re now facing.
As always, Kuan Yin has offered her assistance through a specially chosen collection of Transformation Games, Mind Exercises and Self-care Formulas. During this time she is advising us to pay particular attention to how we’re keeping our boundaries, balance and stability.
She has joined forces with the help of several Plant and Animal Guides from Gifts from the Rainforest and says, “It is much easier to do the right thing when you are in good company. Following good examples will lead you to success.”
Gaze softly at the SOS symbol and ask for a number between 1 – 9.
Scroll down to that number in the list of games and exercises below and check out what that process has to offer you.

SOS for Help When We’re Challenged by Obstacles ~
The Third Line states:
“If you abandon your present concerns in order to struggle with an external obstacles you are in danger of jeopardizing the security of those close to you and, perhaps, undermining the structure of your life. It would be a good idea to return to your center and reconsider your path.” ~ Hexagram #39 OBSTACLES, The I Ching Workbook by R. L. Wing

Chakra Healing and Clearing ~
Recommended Transformation Games and Mind Exercises to Keep You Moving with the Flow, Rather than Against it.
The sheer amount of blocked or stuck energies indicates that we need to find innovative methods for handling radical energy reversals and be conscious about it.

Reiki Training Tips for After Your First Degree Attunement ~
#1 Begin with Self-healing.
Great benefits await those who utilize Reiki self treatments in their regular self-care routine. Daily treatments (anywhere between 5 – 25 minutes) are ideal, especially for those who may be experiencing toxic overload, burnout or high stress. During a treatment, Reiki has its own innate intelligence and will go where it’s needed.
#2 Be Open to Receive Healing and Proper Instruction.
Those who have been properly Attuned to the First Degree of Reiki Basic Training have a Reiki Guide who is there to help you learn how to use Reiki for yourself using your unique gifts and talents.
#3 Remember to Ask for Help.
I think the saying is, “riding on the wings of angels” and that’s just what we’re doing when we get our first Attunement and allow ourselves to accept help from our Reiki Guides and Teachers.
It’s a good idea to regularly ask for help from enlightened beings and you can easily do that with #17 Divine Grace from Soul Prayer Charts.
Remember that Angels and your Reiki Guides respect your free will and will not ever try to force you into anything! Therefore, if you want their help, ask for it.
#4 Make a Commitment to Developing Your Highest Good.
What might be possible if you were to make a new agreement with your Higher Self that you are ready, willing and able to receive genuine help and support in accordance with your highest good? I suggest that your agreement include being respectful in your requests and appreciative towards those who help you.
Most importantly, make a Soul Contract with yourself to be kind and patient with yourself and to get more comfortable about asking for genuine help as you continue your Reiki journey. Would you be willing to sign your name to a contract like that?
#5 Remember to Follow Your Soul’s Intention.
The Intuitive Learning Circles have been developed by Rheanni Lightwater through Reiki to assist in the basic training and effective transmission of Reiki energy for self-healing and to others through distant healing. They can be especially helpful in clearing away those blockages to intentions and trusting your inner guidance.
Emulate the gentle and patient Tree Sloth. Slow down and gaze softly at her Circle and ask yourself:
“What is the most important thing I could do for myself at this time?”

Power Circle – Access Your Inner Light
Kuan Yin’s Power Circle: Staying in the Flow of MODERATION
Tuning in and going with the flow of nature is a difficult thing for most human beings. We’ve been trained since childhood to use force and effort to accomplish our aims. In fact, in many circles, it’s considered a weakness to behave in any other way.
Since 2009, Kuan Yin has been co-creating with us to find another, more peaceful way for those who truly desire to create in alignment with Nature. The overall objective of the plan has been to experience the abundance and joy of surrendering to the flow of creativity or “happiness”.
The purpose of each Stage in the Power Circle of Life is to illuminate how you can be more in the flow in any situation and this year, Kuan Yin has partnered with the Major Arcana Card of The Hermit to help us move forward more effectively in the New Paradigm…
Power Circle – Following MODERATION
We are receiving help from Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Compassion who has guidance about staying grounded and following our inner guidance during times of great change and instability. She uses the I Ching, or Book of Change, an ancient Chinese text that follows and predicts movements and energy flow in the cosmos. Her advice, as always, is direct and to the point!
We are often under the influence of several I Ching flows. Kuan Yin refers to this as a “multiple highway pattern.” Whenever that happens, she recommends following the flow of Hexagram #15 MODERATION whenever possible.
Because there’s so much happening, we can have difficulty staying out of past troubles and keep moving forward on that Middle Road. Yet being fully present and following inner guidance are the keys to moving forward in a positive and beneficial way.
Before you get too far into this, go through a quick quiz to see if this Power Circle would be at all helpful for you. Simply gaze at the Intuitive Learning Circles and relax while you consider the accompanying questions or affirmations.
Consider what’s going on in your life right now. Ask yourself:
“What’s important about being able to manifest my current life goals? Are they worth it?”
“Does it feel like I’m following my Soul’s Light or heading off into the darkness?”
“Am I getting thrown off a lot? Am I working with the Earth or against her?”
How important is it that I stay in the I Ching Flow of MODERATION and follow the Middle Road?”
If it seems like you’re heading the wrong direction, ask yourself,
“What am I confused about?
“Am I stuck in an energy, attitude or agenda from the old paradigm?”
“If so, how harmful is that to me?”
“What, if anything, do I still need to learn from this situation?”
“What do I need to do differently?”
Are you tapping into the most nourishing and beneficial energies available to you?
Do you need to go back and retrace your steps about how you got to where you are?
What can you do for yourself now to help yourself?
What stage of your journey did you get lost?
The Hermit knows that following the light of your Soul is the best way to regain your balance. He/she knows how to be guided by that inner imperative – your Soul’s light and purpose.
You may not be able to explain your dilemma yet, however, you do have a sense about whether it feels right or wrong. What do you need to see the light about?
In this sequence of Ten Stages, you are given Transformation Games and Mind Exercises that are meant to keep you centered and on track in this transition into 2025.
Remember that we’re all navigating many difficulties with a variety of CONFLICTS and RETURNING cycles of karma. Being centered and quick to notice when you’re off track are the smartest ways to handle the challenges we’re facing. Treat yourself kindly and have compassion for your inevitable misunderstandings and missteps.
As active Change Makers, we can use our collective experiences to make corrections so we can be more grounded and able to move forward with our individual Soul purposes. Working together, we can find answers that cannot be found in any other way.
Invite the energy of Old Soul to collaborate with
The HERMIT to inspire powerful ways to follow the middle road this Winter in the New Paradigm.
What Stage Would Be Helpful to Me – Right Now?
There are 10 Stages of the Power Circle of Life to choose from ~
1. Inspiration
2. Attention
3. Intention
4. Adaptation
5. Perception
6. Organization
7. Decision
8. Determination
9. Celebration
10. Completion
Each Stage has a game that Kuan Yin recommends to help us during the transformative year of 2024.
Please note: If you’re feeling completely overwhelmed, don’t despair! You may simply need to gather aspects of yourself back into the present again. Start with SOS for Collapse.
The first step is to take a moment to look at the Circle above – Old Soul (your higher guidance) and think about what you’re hoping to create. Then, ask your heart:
“What Stage would be most useful for me to look at now?”
Or you could ask yourself:
“Which number between 1 and 10 represents the best self awareness process for me right now – or is the best place to start?”
Remember to take the very first number that comes to you, because that is your Inner Wisdom speaking or your intuition.
Once you have your number, scroll down the list and check out that process. You might be surprised at what you’ve chosen, because your Higher Self has access to information that you do not. Trust your first response and explore the exercise anyway.
If you have a journal, make notes of important insights and ideas that come to you during the process. Feel free to sketch if you like. This is the intuitive way to determine which exercise is best for you right now!
Of course, if you want, you can always get help with Rheanni if you want more private coaching. Her contact info can be found at the bottom of this page…
1. Inspiration – Birthing a Heartfelt Desire
We’re beginning a new cycle with potential new Soul connections and wisdom to light the way. Wisdom points to returning to the fundamentals of what it means to be in the flow of MODERATION and following the middle road that’s guided by our Higher Selves. This Transformation Game is that foundation.
Establish a Strong Foundation for Finding and Staying in MODERATION.
2. Attention – Focusing the Desire
In order to focus on your true heart’s desire, you’re going to need to let go of all the clutter and complexities. Stop wasting time on distractions, dead ends and no win situations. Utilize the guidance of your Soul to see how simplifying your desire could really help you use your energy more wisely.
Simplify your intention by re-organizing around Love.
3. Intention – Voicing the Desire
In order to manifest important goals, especially ones that require change, your Essential Self needs to be fully present and willing to participate. This mind exercise takes you through a self discovery process where you can begin to understand why it seems so difficult to manifest your intention. Hint – it’s usually about a fear you picked up earlier in life. Now is your opportunity for deep self-healing.
Pull Together Your Natural Resources for Manifesting.
4. Adaptation – Expanding an Awareness of the Possibilities
As you become aware of the many new options that are available to you, clear perception is what you need most to make sure you’re in the right position and heading in the direction of your highest good. Your unique path may be quite different than what you imagined or what other people expect of you. In addition, you don’t want to inadvertently head back into the very situations you’ve been wanting to get out of for so long. Blind spots are everywhere!
Make Sure You’re Seeing It Right by Clearing Up Your Blind Spots.
5. Perception – Activating the Imagination
Shed light on your imagination by listening to your special protector guidance. Don’t let wishful thinking or irrelevant agreements throw you off track. When learning to stay centered and travel the Middle Road – be sure you’ve got all the information you need and that you’re heading in the right direction. Stop and consider a new perspective from your Soul that will help you come up with a truly meaningful path.
Head in the Right Direction with Clear Perception.
6. Organization – Refine and Prioritize
How you’re used to organizing is overly complicated and needs to change in order for things to run more smoothly going into the New Paradigm. If you’re not adapting to recent changes in your field of study, conflict will be the inevitable result. Release your agreement with “more is better.” At this particular time, that is not so. More satisfying results come from simplifying your plan.
Change your plan and stop organizing around outside agendas.
7. Decision – Conscious Alignment of Energy
If you haven’t included your Soul in on the decisions you’re making, you’d be amazed at how much it could change your journey for the better. Input from your Soul is much more practical and concerned about your true well being than you probably think it is. Take some time to really sort through your thinking process and watch things get easier.
Decide to move forward under the guidance of your Soul.
8. Determination – Commitment to Follow Through
Once you’ve stated definitively what you want to create, the Universe comes in and says, “Really? That’s not what you’ve done before… are you sure?” And then it proceeds to show you all the reasons why you haven’t been able to do it before. It brings you the karma you need to clear and the behaviors that have gotten in the way. So, this is the stage when challenges and crazy things will show up and when they do, keep the faith. Hold to your convictions. Know that the Universe is also there to help you set them right.
9. Celebration – Experience of Success and Satisfaction
Do you know what success means to you? In today’s world of algorithms and social media, it’s easy to get thrown off by cultural expectations and agendas. At any point in your Power Circle you may need to check back with your original intention. Does anything need to change? Are you being true to yourself? Unclear or wishy washy intentions create unclear results. Detach from any entanglements that don’t really reflect your needs and values.
Move Beyond Groupthink and Herd Mentality to Find Your Own Success.
10. Completion – Acceptance of the Circle of Life
The end of a cycle is the very best time to rest. Your body knows a lot about what it needs and how well you’re nourishing yourself as you go through the natural process of completion. Re-assessing how you’ve been taking care of yourself and accepting where you’re at points the way to the next cycle of creation.
Tune Into How You’re Nourishing Yourself at the End of a Cycle.
Thank You for Being a Change Maker for the Common Good!
