To end January I thought I’d do a bibliomany word as we haven’t had one for a while. Please watch the short video for the word choice before continuing on.

Dissipate

Navigating the new

The entire page this word is from has the theme of being taken to a new level, expansion, emergence and reaching for a new you no matter where it leads. I know these words will resonate with one of you in particular at this time. It encourages to keep the forward momentum, not to stay engaging with the same energy or energies. To do so will only attract the same people, opportunities and situations. Keep moving forwards “challenges will dissipate and life will open up.”

Bibliomancy messages or words can sometimes seem really cryptic. They don’t make sense at the time and it can take some digging or a number of days to see their connections. When there’s such an overarching them as on this page. I feel its a very strong message.

My experiences

To relate this to my own experiences I know and feel I’ve changed a great deal these past months. Looking back the changes are subtle and now at this point, I feel the difference within. I feel lighter. It’s not just feeling this difference though, how I engage with life is different, my outlook is different, how I connect with everything is different. I can’t put my finger on it, it’s as if I’ve had an upgrade. Perhaps in terms of energy I have. What I do know though is that I feel it’s the start of a new chapter, a new begining. So this message feels important.

I think one of the reasons for feeling this way is the learning experience which has come from the recent series of posts. This has really helped me go inward and begin to understand who I am. By reading, watching videos, learning and getting under my own skin I’ve be able to unearth my own truths. Those things which are the foundations to build upon, the values and beliefs I know to be true of my Soul and identity. This is by no means the end of the journey, it’s just the begining. This is what this message confirms, a new stage on the path.

Do you know who you truly are…spiritually? Do you follow your inner voice and guidance to find your True North? Or are you following a path laid out by another without thinking if it fits? I always feel we should ask questions and not have blind faith. I would always encourage questions about the words I write here. The act of discussion and openess helps to foster understanding of others and self. Sometimes my mind is changed, sometimes not but it helps to relate to each other.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

By getting to really know ourselves, to keep moving forward with bravery life expands in so many ways. Our consciousness expands. It doesn’t matter if we don’t have all the answers at this particular time, they will emerge as we progress. By trusting and surrendering to the process of being guided by something bigger than ourselves. We open up to infinate possibilites. It allows the Universe to guide us to become more than we can imagine. Our Soul evolves with every step we take to let go of old paradigms. It isn’t easy but it’s only fear which keeps us small.

I am standing at the begining, on a path that’s unfamiliar but oddly familiar at the same time. Around me are traces of things I recognise. Could it be the way the light falls through the trees. Is it the way the air caresses my skin. Or is it the somehow familiar shapes and colours of the surrounding greenery. I am lost in wondering.

This new path beckons me forward. It holds the promise of insight and expansion. It’s dappled, the glint of starry flowers peeping along its edge. It heads out into the unknown, continuing on into the distance until my eyes can see it no more. This path will not be easy, it’s harder to see, less well defined. At times it will be strewn with fallen branches and rocky places, a real challenge. The one behind is the safe path, the comfortable, the familiar. It’s where I’ve come from, it would be easy to return or to stay. But this old well worn path has been outgrown there’s more discomfort in remaning and being confined here.

Choices need to be made.

With a single step I decide to embrace the unknown.

I step into the new.

I step into a new way of being.

I decide to follow this new energy wherever it may lead, knowing this unseen force will be my guide.

Are you ready to navigate a new begining?

It won’t be easy but I promise you it will be worth it.

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
