How Stella Lost Her Groove

Have your felt a bit discombobulated lately? Uninspired? Perhaps you have lost your groove?

Think about what you did or even enjoyed doing 6 months ago. Do you even remember what that was, or did you really need to think about it? Did you forget aspects of your life? As we are in the process of exiting the 3rd dimension of ego and entering the 5th dimension of community, the old ways are no longer serving us. It is time for us to move on. Time to really step into the divineness of your BEing. As one client recently said to me, "You kept saying how creative I am. And I didn't believe you. You encouraged me to try new things, to discover myself. I did, and found out how much I really love to dance! I always thought I hated dancing but realized that that was my insecurity talking and not the REAL me!"

So how are you holding yourself back?

In this time of confusion, or as I like to say, "being between classrooms", take the time to discover yourself. Get rid of the clutter in your life. when you make the effort to rid yourself of the old, you make space for the new to come in. And you may be surprised by the discoveries along the way!

Go out and find your new groove!

Pluto Retrograde

Now that we are out of mercury retrograde, pluto retrograde is upon us for the next 6 months. Retrograde implies that the planet appears to be moving backwards in the sky. Pluto is the planet of unpredictability, so this is the time to re-evaluate the dark sides, or the aspects if your life that you have not accepted, by questioning your motivations and desires.

Who do you want to be? What do you want to be?

Now's the time to step out of your fears and into your empowerment, even if it is one baby step at a time. It is also about coming clean in the areas of power and ego, because this is the time that your secrets can become public. If you follow Mayan prophecy, over the next several months, all of the fraud and secrecy around power and money is to become transparent. Around the world, many high powered bankers are being forced out of office or are stepping down from their position.

Look at your need for power, recognition and money. Also take a look at all of your previous hurts that may motivate you to do things that do not serve you.

Pluto has one goal in mind, and that is transformation. If you deal with your personal darkness you will find your light!

Manifesting

While I was in Denver recently, my car reservation was messed up. I needed the car on Thursday but the reservation was to start on Friday.

So when the agent told me of the error, he also said that my reservation, if it were to include the extra day, would go from $100 to $260! That was totally unacceptable!

So I stood there asking the universe to help me rectify this situation. I kept thinking, over and over "How can it get any better than this?"

After what felt like 5 minutes, the agent said, "Let me go speak to my manager." And as he left, I still kept up asking the universe for its help.

The manager came over and gave me the speech about the car availability and pricing but was really of no help. Regardless, my thoughts didn't waiver. I was confident that the universe was going to come through for me. I had nothing to lose but everything to gain if I did!

A few more minutes went by when the agent said, "Well, my manager said that I could do something here. Would you be okay if I charge you $135 for for the 5 days?"

And the universe did come through for me as expected!

TIPS TO MANIFESTING:

~Have faith. Don't let your confidence or thoughts waiver.

~Timing is key! It may not be your timing but that of the universe. Don't settle, you may miss your help if you do.

~Be open to receive. You need to believe that you deserve it and that it is divinefully yours.

2012- What Does It Mean?

In numerology, 2012 is a five (2 +1+ 2= 5), a 5 indicates a time of change. Change can mean movement backwards (drama), around in circles (chaos) or forward motion (opportunity). In order to be in a forward movement you will need to have a concrete plan for the future or at least be conscious of your goals. Over the next 7 months, it is important where you place your focus, especially in the place of health, habits and regime.

Areas to make changes/improvements:

Organization- Get rid of clutter

Pay Attention to Details- if you're going to do something, be thorough and complete

Time Management- Are you wasting time instead of focusing your efforts to move forward in a project or plan

Health/Habits- Do you have healthy habits? Do you live an active or sedentary lifestyle? Do you act in a way that shows that you love yourself?

By February, there is opportunity for a spiritual shift or strong spiritual presence in your life, a quickening of sorts. Pay attention and be present for your ability to see illusion from truth will be expanding. Time for you to be your truth. How will you express your divinity in the world? What do you really love versus what do you think you should love? The loss of jobs or even important people in your life is a time for you to step back and ask yourself what the blessing is in this particular situation. Perhaps you were stuck in a unfulfilling job and was laid off. Take the opportunity to explore what brings you joy in your life~ express your divinity, that spark that drives you, inspires you!

Transparency will be shown in the coming months, and with that can come chaos and uncertainty. But if you know who and what you are, a master of your destiny not a victim of life, then YOUR truth will be your guiding light. This is why it is so important to validate yourself from the inside out. Do NOT let people tell you who you are~ it is your mission in life to tell them and express it.

Now it the time, more so than any time in your life, to be at the helm of your ship, to guide it and to be aware of everyone around you who threatens your smoothing sailing of that ship. This year is all about taking responsibility. Those who play victims shall sink their boats. Stand up and be responsible for the direction of your life!

Creating Lasting Values

Take a moment to reflect upon the changes you would like to make in your personal world. Would you like to drop a few pounds, exercise more, perhaps make more money? Jot down about 5 areas you would like to change in 2012.

Next, ask your self why you would like to make the changes. For example, if you want to drop some weight, perhaps it is because you want to become healthier. Or maybe you want to feel more confident in your skin.

If you wanted to make more money, do you want it to feel more secure, or perhaps you desire more freedom in your life?

Perhaps you would like a new job. Would you like to be more of service, be more creative, be around more positive people (more joy/love) or make more money so you can be able to go on vacation ( more freedom/ more joy)?

Continue to create the reasons why you would like to have change in your life. Sometimes we need to ask ourselves why a few times until we get into the root reason for wanting the change. When you have finished your reasons, take a look at your new values, the root reasons for change. Now when looking at the chore of changing your eating habits or dragging yourself to the gym will be more of an inspiration that pulls you versus a motivation that can wane if the results don't happen as fast as you would like.

Ask yourself, "how will I know when I have achieved my new value? What results will I see?"

Then create the situations that inspire more of what you want versus what you don't. Ask if an action brings you closer to your values or detract. Does immediate satisfaction outweigh long term results?

No Reservations Required

It's surprising how much emotional abuse that we take in relationships. Boundaries are broken, ignored or sometimes just don't even exist. We push the line because we know we can get away with it and we manipulate the situation. Out of fear, the abused person relaxes the boundary and the precedent is set. So what can one do? Change the rules of the relationship. The abuser will always try to get the rules back to the precedent, but it is up the abused person to enforce the new rules. If that person is a keeper, they will change their habits and adjust to the new rules. If not, then nothing is lost except an abusive relationship and the person will go away. Sadly, many feel that they need to hang on to the abusive relationship out of fear that they be alone for the rest of their life. And one can manifest that fear into reality should they choose. But when one chooses self- love over fear, they can only gain more love into their life.

Get Out of Your Pinãta

So many of us get in our own way. We get trapped in a rut by our fears and become afraid to venture out of our comfort zones. We also become hyper focused on what's not working in our life, where we are unhappy, stuck, or unable to move forward. This may happen mentally, emotionally or even possibly physically.

Sometimes we make permanent decisions for temporary situations. So what can one do?

Face your fears head on. Believe in yourself. Ask yourself~ "What is the worst thing that could happen if (fill in blank)?" Would you die? Perhaps someone would say "no" to you. Again, will you die if they did? Or would your life be in danger? Maybe you will need to start all over~ is that so bad? Starting all over can be exciting. It can be a time to re-invent oneself. As Thomas Edison said, " I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that just won't work."

It's amazing how easy life can become when we face our deepest fears. We often find out that the "fear of the fear" is greater than the actual fear itself. So take the bat and take a swing at your great fear, the pinãta in your life. Break the container that prevents you from reaching that sweetness of life!
