How to Navigate the Hermit Phase of Your Awakening

If you feel the urge the break away from society, there's a reason

The Matrix

The moment you wake up, everything changes and nothing is the same. Life as you knew it changes and there is no going back. Not even if you feel stuck in the hermit phase of the awakening, where there’s not much doing and only being.

There’s a reason people seek a lot of solitude when they wake up.

When you’ve identified with the 3D fear programming your entire life, you lock yourself into a matrix of sorts. The matrix is fear-based programming, and many are trapped.

When you're living in fear, you can’t hear your intuition speak. They no longer hear their higher self trying to guide them. They no longer hear the greater wisdom of God trying to guide them.

A spiritual awakening wakes you up from the 3D fear-based consciousness and places you in a 4D/5D higher consciousness of love. It breaks you free from the matrix.

While awake, you still need to unlearn the things you learned while in the matrix. You need to learn new things to replace those things.

For you to truly shift out of the matrix, you need time alone. You need to go into the hermit phase into a void.

In the void, nothing happens, but nothing is as it seems.

Breaking Free

Your soul will call for you to be alone and you will listen. You will be called to retreat and you will listen. You will listen because you won’t have a choice. Your soul planned for you to wake up and there’s nothing to do about it than to listen to the rest of the plan.

Your soul needs that alone time so you can learn to hear its voice.

This is why you will go through the hermit stage many times through your awakening.

And if you’re an introvert, you’re more likely to stay in the hermit stage longer than most because you’re already sensitive to the energies around you.

When you wake up, you become extra sensitive and spiritual. You perceive things others can’t. You may find that you can no longer resonate with the world and the people in it.

You find that something feels off with the world and you will want to be alone.

Standing Out

Time alone will help you process what's happening.

You need the time away so you can reconstruct yourself and your mental programming. You need time alone to see through the illusions, the delusions, and the lies.

You’ll need the time alone to reclaim your personal power.

You need it to work on yourself, heal the past, and start loving yourself. It's only by loving yourself truly that you'll stay out of the matrix. This is why your soul plans the hermit phase for you.

You need the hermit phase for personal development. You need it to grow. You need it to reinvent yourself.

You need it to learn and to prepare to begin the work you came here to do.

There's a reason for all that you’re going through, so no matter what you do, don't go back and try to fit in with the crowd. It will be excruciatingly uncomfortable and you don’t belong there.

Instead, stand out from the crowd.

Be odd.

Listen to what your soul is trying to reveal to you. Do not be afraid of a thing. Don't feel like you're missing out on stuff or that your life is passing you by. No. They're all illusions, anyway. You’re not missing out on a thing and your life is going how your soul planned for it to go.

If you can trust the process and focus on exploring your inner self, everything will be just fine. If you can relax, embrace and enjoy your hermit phase; you will see your soul’s hand in leading you where you’re meant to go.
