Angels at the Pharmacy
Day 89: Signs and synchronicities are here to guide us
Yesterday morning, my husband and I went to the pharmacy together to get our flu shots. They had to complete our paperwork, so we had some time to walk around while we waited. The pharmacy is inside a grocery store, so we decided to pick up a few items that we needed. My husband asked me what time it was, and as I glanced at my watch, I saw 11:11! It felt as though angels were watching over us nearby. In the past few days, I have been seeing lots of number combinations like 11:11, 12:12, 2:22. As I continue to let go and surrender in my life, synchronicities have appeared more frequently. I feel as if I am getting closer to something important in my life. On this 100-day spiritual journey, I am learning to take things one day and one step at a time. As I explore the book Letting Go by David R. Hawkins, I am discovering how surrendering to the present moment leads to everyday miracles.
Lately, I have been thinking a lot about the offerings I have for my business. I am a professional organizer, and at this moment, I am teaching clients online. Last week I had a sudden idea to re-do my website. I did a lot of digital decluttering, removing things that were no longer relevant and focusing on the things that are most helpful for people right now. It felt as though I was letting go of old ideas of what I should be doing to serve others, and moving into a new realm. Some days I find myself doubting myself or what I have to offer. However, the more that I let go and trust, the more I know I will be lead to do the right thing for current and future clients.
One resistance to letting go is the illusion that, if we let go of our wantingness and our expectations, we won’t get what we want. We fear that we will lose it if we don’t keep pressuring for it. The mind has the idea that the way to get a thing is to want it. Actually, if we examine the issue, we will see that events are due to decisions, and choices are based on our intentions. What we get is the result of these choices, even though they are unconscious, rather than what we think we want. When we surrender the pressure of wantingness, we are clear to make wiser choices and decisions. -David R. Hawkins
Today I feel that these signs I have been seeing through the numbers are telling me that I am on the right path. If I trust in myself and my inner guidance, all will be well. I trust in the decisions I make when they are made from a gut feeling. When we tune in to our true intentions, we get flashes of ideas that we should act upon. I am learning to trust those inklings and take action on them. They are like stardust upon the path, showing me where I should go.
There are a few fleeting moments where I think I should be doing more. I just remind myself that I do not need to work all the time to be accepted and loved. I am all that I need to be at this very moment. That is such a beautiful and freeing feeling. When you know that you are on the right journey, you can let go of the constant pressure that you put on yourself. Then, you can be free to be who you are, enjoying this moment in time. You can be secure in that all of the good that you put into the world will come back to you.
My prayer and my intention for you today is for you to look for signs and synchronicities on your path. Look for number combinations, animals that you encounter, things in nature, and more. What are those signs telling you? How do you feel when you experience them?
