hueyii,

Your question about chakras led me by kind of a circuitous route to another question for you.  I never even knew what a chakra, or a "spiritual awakening", or kundalini, or pretty much anything of that nature was until about two years ago.  I thought that, as nice as it might sound, the idea that anyone could be psychic, or talk to spirits, or understand anything about the life beyond was a nice, but delusional, fairy tale.

But when I Googled some of the things that were happening to me then--two years ago--I came upon "Kundalini awakening," etc.  Mine was, apparently, completely spontaneous--I never tried to reach that state, because, even if I'd realized what it was thought to be, I'd never believe that it was a possibility, especially for someone like me.

Long story short--although it's not something I tried for, it was definitely precipitated by some things that were happening at the time, and that continue to happen, in my daily life.

So, my question for you is this: I get the impression that, in this "cycle", you're feeling particularly anxious for "something" to happen--something big, and clear, and immediate, and beyond this plane of existence (forgive me if I'm wrong--it's just the sense I get).  And I'm wondering if there's something in your own life right now that's precipitated that need to get answers from, or have some kind of communion with, the "world outside of your world".  Has something changed in your personal life?  Are you facing a particular challenge?

For a while, I was getting very excited with myself (not that I've entirely vanquished my ego by a long shot)--talking to spirits, seeing "visions", having what seemed to be premonitions...kind of thinking I was a big deal.  But recently I got a message (several of them, actually) telling me basically to pay attention to my day-to-day life, and the relationships I have with the living.  "It's easier to talk to spirits than to the living," was one of the things I was told.  What I think I was being told was (aside from "get over yourself"--politely!) that finding spiritual answers and following the "right" path starts not with all the really cool, dazzling things that seem beyond our mundane lives, but just there, in those very lives, and those "boring" details and relationships we have with people we see every day.

So, for you, I'm wondering--if something in your life has made this present cycle start with such force, could it be that THAT is part of the message, the lesson?  That finding the way to deal with whatever it is lovingly, with understanding and empathy and wisdom, might actually lead you closer to where you're trying so hard to go?

My own day-to-day life, more and more, becomes richer and more full of gifts and spiritual growth the more I see it as PART of my spiritual life--that it's leading me somewhere.  There's nothing dull about it.  As I wrote in my journal a few mornings ago, "I can wash the dishes and talk to God at the same time."  (I can also see and talk to spirits while I'm doing it, but it just feels like I have company...)

Just some thoughts (again!)...

I've heard of people unexpectedly having a kundalini awakening and not understanding what was happening.  That would be kina scary, not knowing whats hapening to you and all.

"I'm wondering if there's something in your own life right now that's precipitated that need to get answers from, or have some kind of communion with, the "world outside of your world".

I'm making a job change.  It's more than a job, very close relationships involved but its all cool.  It is definitely a "turn the page" time in my life but it is proceeding well.  As I mentioned earlier in my post, I have, through what seems like synchronistic events, been led to ideas that seemingly tie all the common threads of philosophy, spirituality and religion as well as a few controversial beliefs together.

if something in your life has made this present cycle start with such force, could it be that THAT is part of the message, the lesson?

These cycles come and go.  This one was precipitated with my closest friend getting a reading that told him that he was about to go through a spiritual transformation as well as a few other gems.  It wasnt just one reading, it was 3 or 4 different readings that very pointedly told him these things.  The readers also provided details about him that could not have been picked up by a natal chart or other method.  This friend is a person that I have almost daily synchronicities with and we both share many traits and life experience.  I could have been driven by ego or desire because he was making different progress along the path, but there were Ideas I had been presented with briefly before that resurfaced during this period.  This time the ideas were expounded upon and a new world of thought opened up to me.  Is there a message you can see in this?  I need to contemplate it for a while. Sometimes the answer is not so obvious...

I hear ya.  Gives life new meaning.  Having people that you can talk to helps as well.  I have been interested in this for years but my interest was tempered with not really having someone close to me to talk to and exchange ideas.  The last four years I have and it has been fruitful but its time for me to seperate and continue my path.  My spiritual partner and I know we will remain in close touch and I expect the experience will grow in both of us.  Glad to share more detail privately if you are interested.

Feel free to PM me if you like!
