From Jim:
I had my whole life planned out, and now that I am finishing my PhD, I realize it is not the life I want. I crave stability while what I want to do is inherently unstable. How do I move forward?
Inspirations from Binah:
Expectations begin at an early age. As you discover your talents and dream about the future, you develop ideas around what “could” and “should” be your life path. And while the possibilities play out before you, it is important to remember that what you are good at is not always the road that will bring you happiness.
No matter where you are in life, there is always an opportunity for change. Having an education is an asset, so if you are still enjoying school, as you finish your degree, use this time to explore new career fields. Call upon the passionate energy of Venus to confirm what you “want” to be doing, then take it into Mercury to find the most stable way to do it. While there are times when you will have to sacrifice to accomplish your goals, if the intent is right, though the sacrifice may be difficult, it is one your heart will happily make.
Begin on a Friday. Take a rose quartz and place it over you hara chakra. Go into meditation and ask, “What career will bring me a life of joy, happiness and ease?” Let the answers tumble around you. Record the images, sensations, sounds, smells and tastes you receive. When you are done, place the rose quartz on your altar in pure water. Throughout the week, take time to ponder your notes and notice the patterns. When more clarity is needed, take the rose quartz, place it once again on your hara, and return to meditation to further develop you career ideas.
When you find a clear path you wish to take, on the following Wednesday, place a sodalite crystal on your hara. Go into meditation and ask, “What steps do I need to take in order to create this career in a way that will bring stability and abundance?” Just as before, let the answers flow through your senses. Record everything, then place the sodalite in the same water as the rose quartz. Repeat this process as necessary, reaching clarity on where to go next.
When you have both the path and steps, on the following Saturday, place an Apache Tear Obsidian on your feet and bless your journey you have begun – grounding the energy and removing any self-limitations. With the ritual complete, leave behind your old plan and embark on the new, confident that you will achieve what you desire most.
