Manifesting

It sort of began with a friend who mentioned astrocartography over coffee one day. Did I know what it was? she asked. I had had my natal chart read by this wonderful witch in the far reaches of Maine, and I love maps, so could somewhat surmise what this may entail.

The search to be anywhere new had really started a long while prior to this question. Her inquiry, though, set me on a trajectory of finding the perfect place for me, narrowing my focus. Astro Liz from Maine recommended her astrologer to read my planet map.

I called Leo in Santa Fe and what do you know? All my lines, all my planetary measures of success and happiness, fall on the West coast of the US. Love, relationships, communication, career, creativity, expansion… all of them. Certainly, this explains why my heart has been drawn this way for over 20 years, since I knew it was a thing.

The obsessive research for his specific recommendation of a town ensued. Burying myself deep in the google searches of southern Oregon, I found our special spot checking more and more boxes of exactly what my soul had been craving. Culture, arts, excellent schools, nature right outside my door, walkability, opportunities, community. I began my travel nursing search for my next assignment only in this area. I quit a really good job with great pay and schedule and took the leap into throwing my entire life into complete disarray.

Now, this is one thing for a single human with no kids or pets or significant other. But for someone with all these wonderful and messy blessings, there are many obstacles and challenges to navigate along the way to making our fantasy a reality.

Without yet divulging all those things that are only pebbles in the road now looking back, I can only say that making our dreams come true is always worth it. No matter the struggles along the way, when something is ours… those all fall away easily, and the path is made smooth step by step. The next right action is always clear, and there are no regrets. Energy is only multiplied, never depleted… even when you are rearranging every single piece of life furniture. The muscles of the body and the mind are made stronger by the winds of the spirit blowing life back into the soul.

Trust me on this, take the next right step for you. Do not wait on your dreams. Life is happening now. Live it.
