April Energies: Feel the Heat...and do it Anyway!

April Energies: Feel the Heat…and do it Anyway!


Before you start reading this month’s energy report let’s take a moment to take a deep breath in. Hold it for five seconds, and now let out a BIG exhale. How did that feel? Did you feel like you just released some tension? Good. Did you get a feeling wash over you that says it’s going to be okay no matter how stressed/pushed to your limit/exhausted/full of fear you have been? Well, it will be okay. It actually already is, even though we might not exactly know up from down one minute to another these days!

Here’s the strange thing about these changing times. It’s like we’ve been running a marathon for a really, really long time. We’ve always had our supporters by the sidelines cheering us on, some who we see clearly and others we don’t. We’ve also had another crowd off in the distance who haven’t wanted us to do very well in this marathon, but mainly they didn’t pay us too much attention. This crowd have occasionally sent obstacles and false detours our way. They’ve had a few great laughs watching us sweat it out and get emotional about this endurance event we entered eons ago, not remembering why. Mainly they’ve pre-occupied themselves with other things, never in a million years anticipating that we, the Earth people, would ever come close to getting over the finishing line. You see this crowd under-estimated the strength of the human spirit, which is driven by the desire to move ever forward and discover our true potential.

This crowd have been laughing at us hurling ourselves ever closer toward the finish line, marked on our Earth calendar by the date December 21 2012. “You think you’re going to get there in one piece?” they shouted down from the viewing hills. “You can’t even run a mile without abusing each other or yourselves,” they taunted “Give up now people, the show’s over. Go home.”

The more they taunted, the faster and further we ran. Yes we humans are a crazy bunch. The more someone says we can’t do something, the more defiant we get, the more stubborn, determined and driven we become. “You think we can’t finish this race? We’ll show you a finish!”we shouted back. We looked around at each other nodding and affirming ourselves, meanwhile thinking “Oh man, we’re in trouble. We’re not in good shape at all!” So, we had a big meeting. We could either keep tripping each other up and get nowhere, or we could band together and as a team help each other get across that line, no matter what it took.

So, several years ago (yes it’s been a long long marathon), we started to work together. We started chanting positive affirmations toward each other. We threw books to our teammates that we felt would help them with their technique and running style. One by one we all started turning into the little engine that could, puffing ‘I think I can, I think I can’ as we put one foot in front of the other.

The crowd started paying a bit more attention, but still didn’t take all this motivational stuff too seriously. “I mean, pffhh they’re human for god’s sake. How much more can they take?”

But we kept going, and finally we got to the marker that the crowd never thought we’d reach. The marker of 2008. Alarm bells started going off, and a buzz spread throughout the crowd. This was completely unforeseen. Never in a million years did they think we’d get this far, and still be on our feet, still be in a state of moving forward. They decided to start getting serious with their sabotaging tactics. They started throwing energy balls at us targeting our most vulnerable areas: our belief in ourselves, our faith in humanity, our confidence in our ability to have a dream and a vision ahead of us and muster up the courage and strength to go for it, no matter how hard it gets, no matter how big our doubts grow, no matter how much our fears feel like they are enveloping us.

Right now we are feeling two extremes of polarity at the exact same time, and it can be hectic! We are so close to the finishing line, the supporters lining the route are growing in numbers and their cheers are getting so loud. With each mile we are being given a glimpse of what awaits us at the finish. Either through visions or awakened hope or remembered dreams or actual changing situations we are being shown a whole new reality that includes our most perfect soulmate relationship, connections with our most dear soul family and friends, work that we love that supports us in every way and helps to uplift and empower others, new homes in new locations that are more in alignment with our new selves. The momentum of the new carries us forward and helps over-ride the burning feeling in our muscles that is crying out for rest.

Rest one day if you need to, then get up and keep running!!

Simultaneously the energies that don’t want us to get to the finish line have gone into a frenzy. We are ducking and weaving trying to dodge gigantic balls of doubt and fear. We are trying to shut out the voices telling us it’s too late, telling us we can’t make it, meanwhile trying to tune in to the constant vibe of support humming around us affirming to us, it’s not too late, you can do it, you’re nearly there, keep going, keep going. Half the time we feel like crawling up in our doona’s and sending out a message to the rest of the team: “Wake me when it’s over.” But we know we can’t do that, and nor would we want to miss out on all the action, as crazy as it is, and still is yet to get.

Right now you might feel like all you’ve ever wanted is right there in front of you, closer than it ever has been before. At the same time, you might be feeling more fear and doubt than ever before about actually reaching out and stepping into the life that you came here to live. Some days you feel like you’re running toward the home stretch with wind under your wings, and other days you feel like you’re jumping hurdles. Keep jumping, keep running.

I read a great quote once, that said “When one door closes another one opens, but it’s hell in the hallway. Don’t stop in the hallway!” It’s interesting that I’m currently hearing about a lot of dreams people are having to do with fire, volcanoes, intense burning heat and explosions. It might feel like we’ve jumped out of the frying pan into the fire (sorry, old boring analogy but kinda appropriate here!), but this is not a time to sit down and cry about how hot it is getting! Okay then, have a cry, but then when you’ve had a good bawl, get up and keep moving. We need all hands on deck, to help each other cross that finish line and prove wrong anyone who thought we couldn’t do it. This is what you came here for. The entire marathon up until now has been like a warm up. Your muscles have been stretched, your fitness is at it’s peak, even though you might feel you are at your most weary.

If you have a vision in your mind about what you want, or even have a pretty good idea about what you don’t want, then let that motivate you to keep moving forward. When the fear and doubt come, treat them like a hurdle that you just have to jump over.

Onward, upward. Don’t let anyone tell you you can’t do what you came here to do, or be who you came here to be. Not at this point of the game. One by one we all need to cross the finish line. Your running team, your fellow humans, need you. Get up and keep moving toward your true self and best life. You can do it.

  1. Dana that is so hilarious. Just this morning I was writing to a friend that I felt that life is like running a marathon, an endurance test, and that I don't feel I did enough carbohydrate loading before I came here in order to last the distance. And then I got your April article. Coincidence? I don't think so! I must've been more tuned in that I thought! ha ha.
