You Are the Weaver of Your Web

You are the weaver of your web. Where are you going to hang it? How solid of a foundation will it be forged on? What will the design of your web be? Will it be intricate, delicate, complicated? Will it be tangled? Will it be symmetrical? Will it be weak?
The themes for this time have to do with the throat chakra and expression — receiving, responsibility for what you’ve created and who you are, focus and intent — you are the master of your web and your world. What are you creating and how are you establishing new foundations?
This is a time for (re)discovery of You. Who are you, at a core, conscious level? What do you really want? What are you really craving in your life? What matters to you most? Where are you independent? Where are you strong?
Notice what comes up (trigger and drama wise) that no longer has a charge. Notice what no longer pulls you in. Just because it comes into your thought field, doesn’t mean it has to pull you in or pull you under. Notice if it does.
Placement is helping you adjust to no time which is now time. It’s helping you adjust by showing you where you are flexible and where you thought you couldn’t bend. Time, energy, reverence — everything is flexible. It’s you that has been rigid and restricted.
And so, this is a time to soften. A time to reflect. A time to look inside, look deeper and see, as if for the first time, or perhaps just with a very different perspective, who you are for real, and the faculties that are keeping you from where you want to be.
Many are feeling very drained by the experiences and energy that are incompatible with their truth. Many are finding that they are sponges for the energy of fear that is so prevalent all around. How do you know when your energy is being siphoned? You will have the experience of feeling drained. You will feel depressed, exhausted, uneven. You will feel a shift, and not in a good way.
Use these opportunities as a jumping point to become a master of energy. A master of energy does not bend to the energy of the environment, of the company, of the situation. A master of energy is able to maintain their vibration, and their integrity, despite the encounter with something denser. A master of energy does not become victim to their circumstances, but remains even. Remains solid. Remains intact. Remains in-tune, yet unaltered by the outer, surpassing the dip in vibration, and therefore the need to retaliate or recharge continually from otherwise draining situations.
When you find yourself dipping in vibration because of what someone has said or because you have taken on the energy of someone you’ve been around, question whether or not that is so. By questioning that simple fact, “Have I taken on the energy of another?,” you will find an instant lightening, and instant lift- simply by bringing this truth to awareness, simply by bringing it to the light.
Often, when we take on the energy of another, we are unaware that we’ve done so, and we internalize the emotions or the thoughts of those we’ve engaged with. We become confused and swept away by the emotions and thought forms, especially if they resonate with thoughts or emotions that have been ours. It can be difficult to differentiate what is ours and what is theirs. And so it becomes evident, how necessary it is to establish clear boundaries, especially energetically, as we climb the ladder of vibration. As we climb, we become more and more sensitive. As the veil thins, and our senses sharpen, as we become more light-bodied, we operate from that level — from the level of transparency, telepathy, clairvoyance, and higher levels of empathy. This is the higher way of being but we must integrate the safe-guards or the know-hows in order to operate from this place more efficiently.
Though the tendency is to want to hibernate or restrict contact with the outside world in order to bypass these commonly unpleasant experiences, the need to know how to operate, how to be unrestricted and free within the world without running from it, is a part of our growth and learning. We have gone beyond the marker of being in this world but not of it and are entering a time of mastership, where being of it and in it and beyond it simultaneously are not only possible, but preferable, because we have embarked on the road of no restrictions and are leaving the land of victim-hood and hiding.
Part of being able to be in the world is being able to stand firm and solid in who you are (integrity) despite someone else’s conviction. If this is not a strong point for you, you are going to be tested in it. You are going to be prompted and challenged to stand your ground and be unwavering, because this is the foundation for living from your soul-truth, and this foundation, in order for you to shine your brightest shine, needs to be solid and sufficient.
Your battle within thus far, between your growing truth and your ego’s opposition, has been about safety. Your ego-mind fears the ventures of the new, the pitfalls of transition, and the betrayal of the other whom you’ve placed your value and your faith in. Your soul longs for independence from the validation of others, expression of inspired experiences, and culmination of faith that It can take you where you need to go. The war will continue to wage until you are able to provide a foundation on which your ego can rest and your soul can fly.
You have everything within you now to achieve this. This is a time of fishing through the utensil drawer of your tools and finding what will support you in this endeavor. What will it take to become strong in the face of someone else’s opinion, in the presence of another discordant energy? In the moment of truth, which is every moment, what are you going to bring to the table?
You may find that you’ve been drawing from the dull tools, the ones you’ve used before, perhaps time and again, and you are seeing more clearly how they haven’t served you. You are seeing more clearly because it matters to you now, in a way that perhaps it never did before. And as you bring in the consciousness that proceeds the clarity, you no longer have the capacity to function at that level, at that level of just getting by, of barely making the ends of your life meet, and of spending half of your time picking yourself up off the floor rather than climbing higher.
So take inventory of your strengths. It’s harder to fool yourself now. And this is to your advantage. The further you engage with your truth, the easier it becomes to see who you really are, and in these upcoming challenges, it will become increasingly easier to see when you have taken on the energy of another. Knowing this helps you to remain more in alignment with your truth.
Gather from your experiences the lessons, rather than the pitfalls or disappointments, and use these too in your arsenal of truth. Who you ARE is a direct reflection of who you have always been (at the core and deepest level). So much time is lost in reflection of who we are not and who we may never be.
You have had millions of experiences. You have lived many lifetimes. You have been without body, in spirit, and thus you have traveled to other worlds. How could you not know beyond, far beyond, what you have limited yourself to knowing? How could you not have come into mastery in all of these fields which you desire to encompass in this now? You limit yourself because it has been the norm of your culture, it has been the safely valve of society. You have placed your faith and banked your worth on what someone else has told you you should be. Isn’t it time to reach beyond that now, into the wisdom of within and bathe in the light of your vibrant being? How much longer can you remain in the tight-fitting suit of the ‘should’ ?
You know the answer to that question by the restriction you feel in your throat when you hold back from expression. You know it when you feel the rumble in your belly when you give away your power to something or someone you don’t even believe, out of habit or out of doubt in your self. You know the answer all to well, and the question becomes not how long will it continue, but when and what will it take. What will it take to break free of what’s held you down? What will it take to follow your heart, every time, and take the chance on you, no matter the consequences? What will it take to BE in your fullest capacity, at last, without worry, without wondering anymore, without restriction?
And the answers to these question are what this time and these challenges are all about. This is a time to question — everything, everyone, especially yourself. Question why you buy in, what you want from your experiences, where you place your trust, and what you most deeply and truly desire. This is a time to overturn, uncover and intercede on what has been just for the sake of always being that. This is a time of revealing. Let the mysteries unfold, the tangles of deception be unraveled, and the constriction be soothed. This is your Now, baby!- Go on and live it!
Engage with awareness and create with the vibrancy of truth!
