Ask and You Shall Receive

Yesterday, I shifted my perspective on how I was going to make a monetary income. I was finally at peace and felt good.

Within minutes of having made up my mind and then posted what I had done on Facebook, I received a phone call from my former boss asking me to come back and help them. Of course, I said YES!

Today, I (re-)started my beloved job. I am so happy!

What are you doing?

What are you doing with your life? Are you having fun? Are you thinking that events and situations are happening to you?

Which scenario do you prefer? Which one feels better?

What are you not willing to have in your life? What are you willing to acknowledge and then let go?

For me, life has to be lived on my terms, not anyone else's. It is my life after all. If my life seems to be a mess, it is because I created that mess and it has something to offer me, something to give me. What is that? I may not know for days, weeks, or years after the situation has calmed down or resolved itself, but I know that it was always for me.

Like my separation from my husband. For ten years now, I have been wishing and desiring to have him leave. Last year, he did. I wanted it to happen and when the time was right, I finally let him go.

And now, I revel in my freedom.

I am also scared about the next step; financial independence. In my marriage, I let him tell me that I could not work full time. I let him tell me that I was unreliable in keeping a job, which was completely false, of course. I let him ruin our life financially. Together we created struggle and a lack consciousness.

Now, I get to change my mind about my job/career and how I want to money to come into my life. I get to choose my conditions. I get to choose my values and what is important to me and to me alone.

That is an awesome amount of power that I have!

So, what shall I do today?

August 3, 2011

Mercury goes retrograde today. For the next three weeks, it will be a good idea to research, make plans but don't act on them, and re-evaluate my previous plans.

I used to be a great and prolific planner, making lists of what I would like to have in my life and when. When I got married, I lost myself and thus lost that part of myself. Now, that I am free and independent, I am remembering that I can plan my life out and have it be the way that I want it to be.

This is both exciting and frightening. I am constantly being nudged by the Universe to claim my life and live it. My ex is cutting the amount of money he is giving me for the kids, my job ended on the 29th, I have ideas of what I want to do, and I am scared of how the money will come in to take care of the monthly bills that I have.

To Do:
write my book on the Astrology of Knitting
write my book on square and rectangular knitting: making all sorts of things without shaping
keep up on my blog and keep writing my lists

I feel better already after having written just those three things.

Onward!
