PURPOSE

It was a most powerful sign that proved to support the right decision .

Several years ago there was a decision I needed to make that would impact whether or not I maintained a friendship with someone . The decision was weighing heavily on my heart . I stood outside in the driveway , closed my eyes , and asked for a sign to show me if keeping the friendship was for the highest good . Three seconds later I felt something brush my face , opened my eyes just in time to see hummingbird feathers fall to my feet . No one was around . I had never seen hummingbirds in that location . The feathers were joined together . It was a most powerful sign that proved to support the right decision . The friendship is in tact and I am grateful for the listening ears of the universe . Call it serendiptiy , a coincidence or a fluke . It was and undeniable fortifier of inner / outer world connections in my way of living life .
This Autumn I returned to a place where I lived for 28 years to walk the land and have closure with that chapter of my life . Just as I approached the house and land , it started pouring down rain . I began crying as I parked the car . For three hours I cried , walked the land , talked to the trees , thanked all the living energies there that I loved . Also I rang a special bell to clear me and clear the house and land of any blockages or hindrances to fully have freedom in new life chapters .

This was one of the most beautiful communions of inner and outer worlds filled with amazing signs I have known .

As I completed my clearing pilgrimage , I picked some apples from the trees I helped to plant so many years ago . A voice inside said it was a symbol of fruition . As I got into my car to pull away , I stopped crying and it stopped raining at the same moment . I felt the sky had been crying with me the whole time . Exactly at that moment that crying commenced , the aching that had been in my heart completely evaporated . This was one of the most beautiful communions of inner and outer worlds filled with amazing signs I have known . Gratitude

Confirmation is always present in the healing process .

When I do remote or onsite healing and intuitive coaching , it is common to have an image pop into my mind that surfaces as something important in the healing of the individual I am working with . Inner and outer worlds are obviously connected . Confirmation is always present in the healing process .
Watching for the inner / outer flow is a fun hobby at the very least . Serendipity is one way to consider the art of relating to coincidences as being meaningful with aligned purpose . Start small . Feel the intention for the day as you state it . Notice the golden thread of opportunities and tests that arise to give you feedback about how you are doing with what you intend to manifest . Get the sense of how to hold the vibration which is an energy frequency gathering momentum attracting like energy .
Know your purpose . Alignment of inner / outer worlds means the doorway that connects them has a key that fits . Wrong keys don ’ t work . At the same time , perseverance and trusting one ’ s own soul voice and passion can be tested and challenged . Know yourself and get to know yourself even better .
We are all a work in progress . We all get ‘ signs ’ and we all want to feel a connectedness and flow with the outer world . Be mindful in the present moment and see what comes your way . Awareness of ‘ signs ’ enriches daily life . Interpretation of ‘ signs ’..... well , that ’ s another story ! Have fun knowing you are connected ! And , for heaven ’ s sake , ASK for signs and keep both eyes open !
