🔮Business Alchemy

Yall know I am with the WOO WOO! Let’s pull a card for the week and get inspired.

Card of the week is:BIRTHING A NEW AGE

Meaning: Often our path is exactly the one that we don’t feel prepared to walk. Walk it anyway. Often what is rising feels far bigger than we could possibly hold. Be a container for it anyway. Often our creations seem to have a wild, uncontrollable consciousness of their own. Birth them anyway. Often what is ours to do is the very thing that most intimidates us. Be courageous and do it anyway. We are birthing a new age.

Right now, we’re in a transition period between ages. In the process of allowing the old cycle to fall away and the new to rise. Like driving in the fog and trusting the road will appear ahead, we need to release old identities and ways that no longer serve us, using our intuition as a compass.

You are part of a group of souls who have been incarnating at significant periods of history preparing for this exact time. Dreaming a new world into being: Magdalene sisters, daughters of Isis, Essenes, priestesses, witches, mystics, healers, seers, artists, midwives, visionaries, guardians of the Earth, and storytellers from times past.

It is time to give permission and space for what is beckoning within to be born. We are dreaming a new world into being.
