3 Ways to Find Your Soul’s Purpose and Fulfill Your Destiny
The soul has its own agenda and doesn't care what the mind thinks it wants
1. Read Into Your Joyful Moments
Everything in this universe serves a divine purpose. A soul’s purpose is one’s ultimate life purpose. It’s that thing that must be fulfilled so a soul can evolve.
Your soul's purpose is unique to you and only you can fulfil it.
It could be anything from saving and guiding souls, to protecting the planet and everything on it or finding the cure for a disease.
If a person fails to fulfil their soul’s purpose, the entire human race suffers. This is why it’s so important to figure out what your soul’s purpose is and make it your mission to fulfil it for the betterment of humanity.
One of the easiest ways to find your soul’s purpose is to find the things that bring you joy.
For me, I know my soul’s purpose is to save and guide souls, and I do that through writing and coaching. These two things fill me with an abundance of joy that whenever I’m in the flow, it feels like I’m floating on calm seas.
All soul purposes are hidden in joyful and passionate moments.
It’s going to be really difficult to find your soul’s purpose whilst doom scrolling on Instagram, stuck in a Twitter feud, or binge-watching violent movies on Netflix. That’s because none of those things truly brings you joy. If anything, they zap away all the joy from your bones.
It is in your joyful moments that you find your purpose.
In those whimsical moments where you can truly say you feel joyful — those moments where you suddenly feel inspired with every breath you take, love with every word you say and magic in everything you touch — is when your soul flips over to the page to where your destiny is written.
We’ve all had those joyful moments, but most people don’t think anything of it when they arise. They don’t act and watch that page turn again.
Each one of those joyful moments means something. It’s when your soul comes to the forefront. When your soul comes alive, that’s the best opportunity to catch a glimpse of your destiny written on the page your soul flips open, read what it says before life calls and the mind tells you to snap out of it.
Perhaps it’s a song that makes your heart expand to the point you feel you could burst into a song, or a child playing alone feeling joyful all by him or herself that triggers your own joy and the thought that you love children so much you to work with them or a cool breeze on your face that fills you with so much gratitude you want to give back to the world.
Whatever moment you catch a glimpse of joy in your life, don’t let that moment pass away. Hold on for as long as you can. Look at every word that stands out to you, contemplate on the feelings in your heart and then interpret them by journaling or reflecting on them to find out what it means to you.
These joyful moments carry messages straight from your soul to help you see and do more of the things that spark the light in you, so you can spark it to light the path for the world.
Anything that sparks joy deep within your soul is your destiny revealed.
2. Explore Otherworlds and Realms
In many cases, the reason why we struggle to find our soul’s purpose is that we aren't even connected to our soul. We don't hear it when the soul speaks. If this goes on for years, the soul becomes dormant or we just lose it.
When this happens, now we have the job of retrieving our souls. Soul retrieval is best done through activities that can send you into spiritual realms like prayer, meditation and visualization, inner child and shadow work, practising self-love and compassion and doing good for others.
You know you’ve been successful in retrieving your soul when you feel like you’ve come alive. Instead of the boring feeling in your stomach, you feel life and vitality. Instead of the dullness inside your brain, you feel a passion that wasn’t there before. You look at life as if you’re looking at it for the first time and everything is colorful and awe-inspiring. But for that to happen you must reconnect with your soul
To connect with your soul and find your purpose, you must take a break from the same old regular activities and do the things you wouldn’t normally do. Dare to do something different. Dare to visit someplace new.
If all you do is scroll on social media and you do it again for the 44th time today, nothing magical will come out of that. If you’d normally be scrolling mindlessly on Instagram, decide that you won’t and instead you’re going to listen to some binaural beats on YouTube that could send you traveling and exploring other realms. There you have a chance of running into your soul.
If you’d normally be crying on the bathroom floor saying, “Woe is me,” get up on your feet and pray like your soul depends on it. Your soul may hear your call and return to you.
If you’d normally be mean to yourself when things went horribly wrong, hold yourself gently and whisper, “It's going to be okay,” and your soul may feel that and draw near to you.
If you’d normally be watching a movie on Netflix, don’t. Just sit there in silence or in meditation and there’s a pretty good chance that you’ll journey into a deeper part of yourself and something will be revealed to you.
If your Twitter notification is going off meaning the person has responded to the feud, you can say no to it and decide to do breathwork instead which could induce a trance state and send you into other realms where you could meet your higher self who could whisper something into your ears that changes everything.
This is to say that it’s always a good idea to take a break from things. Do other things. Take a break from your normal state of consciousness into altered states.
There are many other ways to experience an altered state of consciousness, and not all of them will suit you. So be mindful and choose only what you feel comfortable and ready to experience.
If you're lucky to have access to a trusted shaman who works with plant medicines, you could talk to them about booking a trip for you to explore other realms using plant teachers like Ayahuasca and others.
Even marijuana, if used consciously in moderate amounts — and never ab-used or mis-used — with the right intention, can help you explore deeper parts of your inner world.
You have to be smart in these kinds of dreamy soul explorations. Be careful when you alter your state of consciousness with substances because plants are sacred and living and no living thing wants to be abused or misused. You don't want to be traumatized for abusing a sacred plant.
Otherworldly experiences should be done with wisdom and discernment.
It’s always a good idea to take a break from things you normally do and do other things you feel called to do.
3. Artistic Expression of The Self
Your personality is the mask you put on for the world, but you are so much deeper than that. You are deeper than the things that are constantly changing. Your personality now may not be the same as your personality 10 years ago. Personality changes, but your inner self doesn't.
To find your destiny and fulfil your soul’s purpose, you may need to do some soul searching to uncover all of who you are deep within.
You must uncover your life’s principles that don’t change, your natural gifts, talent and abilities and your innermost wisdom, which are the things you just know without knowing how you know them. You must discover them and then express them.
To express yourself is to let the world know who you are and all the things you're made of. It is a way to stand out from the crowd in a world where everybody just wants to fit in.
Artistic expressions of the inner self help you tap into your soul's wisdom.
You don't have to be an artist to use art to search for your soul’s purpose. You just have to be soulful and have the right attitude.
There are several ways that you can express yourself to allow your soul to come forth.
Making art, writing, music, painting, drawing, coloring, playing sports or an instrument, journaling, cooking, gardening, photography, videography, designing, etc. are a few of the ways to express and live your true identity.
Amazing realizations occur when you're being who you truly are.
Expressing yourself in artistic ways allows your soul to come out and have fun and when that happens, you have a chance of getting your questions answered, finding your destiny and living your soul’s purpose.
You don’t have to be an artist to use art to search for your soul’s purpose. You just have to be soulful and have the right attitude.
