Turn Your Fog Lights On!

March 12, 2022 Linda Champagne

Today is a cloudy, rainy and foggy day. It’s March and Pisces season. When the Sun travels through the sign of Pisces, it is an ending to a cycle and a time to slow down, breathe, relax and tie up loose ends, as opposed to living in the stress of everyday life. There will be plenty of time to initiate action toward your future goals when the Sun moves into Aries at the end of the month, as Spring arrives.

For now, take a little time to escape from the daily grind and enjoy some down time. Connect with your Spiritual side, read a book in the middle of the afternoon, listen to some music when you get home from work, meet some friends for dinner, play board games with kids, journal, learn to meditate, join a yoga class, get a massage. Just sit and do nothing. Appreciate what you have and all those in your life that you love and just breathe. Do not feel guilty!

The Train is Coming

January 27, 2022January 28, 2022 Linda Champagne

Many people have contacted me lately concerned about the heavy and unsettling planetary energies they have been experiencing in the past few months. Depression, anxiety, insomnia and physical illness all have been some reoccurring symptoms.

The Mercury and Venus retrogrades are almost over (Venus, Jan. 29^th, Mercury, Feb 3^rd), but they are still in Capricorn with Pluto. We are meant to continue re-assessing what we value in love relationships and our money situation, (management, income, investments etc.), and to get our facts straight before we embark on new adventures. With Retrogrades, a lot of times, we are confronted with shadow issues, that is, unconscious behaviors that adversely affect our present circumstances. Hidden reasons for relationship problems, over reactive emotions, physical symptoms of stress and mental confusion, may be revealed by the end of this retrograde period.

CHEERS TO 2022!

January 3, 2022January 28, 2022 Linda Champagne

It’s been quite a ride since 2020 and now that we are beginning a new year with hopes for the future, I thought I would share some resolution ideas with you. We just had a New Moon in Capricorn along with other planetary transformational energies, all pushing us to take a second and third look at what needs to change to feel better about our lives. These next couple months are a perfect time to step up to the plate and take responsibility in setting new goals and/or making tough choices. There is a pay off by Spring if you take action now!

Most of us have felt stuck and controlled by the outer world. We may feel like a victim to authority. The chaos in the outer world has gotten so loud and confusing that many have shut it off. Great! That’s what the Universe wants us to do. It wants us to COME HOME to our own lives and mind our own business!

Feel Like You’re on a Hamster Wheel?

June 4, 2020December 26, 2021 Linda Champagne

Astrologically, these are wild times. I’ve been feeling like each morning I get on a hamster wheel and go, go, go, yet, go nowhere, and that makes me feel like a victim. Sometimes it takes a few days before I stop long enough to pay attention and tune in to how I’m feeling… bored, blah, angry, resentful. Once I can identify the darkness inside of me, I will usually go for a walk and re-mind myself of how lucky and blessed I am, and of all that I have to be grateful for.

I will look around at the beauty of my surroundings and the smells of flowers and ocean jay-wennington-2810-unsplash air and I will slowly shift into feelings of balance and calm. That is one of many actions that I take to feed my Soul. I’ve been practicing this for some time now and I don’t usually stay down the dark rabbit hole for long but, I’m human, so I will take a dip every now and then!

The intensity of shifting energies in the world around us will easily infiltrate your physical, emotional and spiritual bodies if you are not awake. How adept are you at noticing what energy/emotions are yours and what arrows are coming at you from the outside? As humanity yearns for peace and harmony, we all have to do our individual part in making that future happen. Many people ask me how they can make an effective contribution towards human equality and freedom.

It’s easy to wander into the atmosphere of fear but the challenge humanity faces at this mayur-gala-487-unsplash historic time, is to travel, not far and wide, but on a journey within to nurture, heal and expand our own love center. Getting off the hamster wheel by choosing to connect with your heart, forgive the past and feed your soul, will significantly make a difference in your world, as well as, the world around you.

LOCK DOWN AWAKENING

May 25, 2020 Linda Champagne

These radically changing times are testing all of us to step up to the plate in some area of our lives. To let go of worn out patterns of behaviors stemming from fear of not being worthy or good enough or even lovable. What needs to change in your life? What has already changed due to these unprecedented circumstances? Are you reacting in anger and anxiety or are you paying attention to your emotional state of being and responding with maturity and grace by trusting that there are opportunities to take action to make better choices for yourself and your loved ones. What action do you need to take right now to help yourself?

This is a time to dream or plant some seeds about creating a life that we love. When we say that we want this or that to change, what voice tells us to forget it…not going to happen? Our Default Mode will force us to withdraw and give up but the Soul’s voice, who knows how to fulfill our desires, is also there listening to this inner conflict.

Pay attention to your feelings and take special time for yourself to listen to your heart. We are shifting from letting life lead us from the outside to living life from the inside out! For many this will be a time of awakening and a time of learning to see life from a higher perspective. As a result, it will be easier to release old patterns of behavior that limit expansion and movement.

Let’s all start to build a stronger personal and spiritual foundation. Let’s wake up to the truth that we are not just blood and bones but, that we also carry an eternal spiritual energy within…call it God, Allah, Christ or Universe…it doesn’t matter. Trusting the awareness of this truth, you may decide to take some risks or make some changes in your life based on loving and respecting yourself. The gift of this connection is Self-Love, loving all of you (warts and all), as well as, contentment, compassion and self-healing. For some, these words will sound like “woo woo”, but until you can continuously shift your emotional state of being to a higher frequency of love and accept that this takes practice…nothing will change in your life.

If you would like to explore your Soul’s Purpose, to learn how these radically changing times can help you awaken to your true nature and to initiate an action plan that resonates with your heart’s desires…
