Energy Reading May 3–10, 2022: Why This Is A Great Week To Widen Your Perspective

Last week, I did an intuitive reading for a client whose brother had passed away the year before. I love communicating with people who have passed because most of the time they have a much wider perspective than those of us still in our human bodies.

When the ego isn't at play anymore, it is much harder to take things personally and much easier to feel how so many of our problems come from the limited stories we believe about ourselves. Stories like, "I'm not enough because no one appreciated me in middle school," or "I can't achieve my dreams because I'm not talented" dissipate when we can feel how limitless we actually are.

In this case, my client's departed brother was telling her how much he appreciated the work she was doing to clear ancestral patterns that had affected their family because he was learning from it. She was surprised that her work could help him because she thought that once you die you just know everything. He showed me an image of the entire galaxy and said, "No one can ever possibly know everything. The Universe is limitless. There's always going to be more to learn."

When we adopt a wider perspective this week, it will become easier to find answers. But we also must remember that sometimes, there are no answers to be found. When my client's brother told us that we will never know everything, I felt relieved. Let this be your reminder: You will never know it all, so you can stop pressuring yourself into thinking you will.

This week, what if we put our energy into feeling gratitude for the vastness of the universe and the miracle of how things are instead of needing to know why things are?

I know that sounds a little pie in the sky, but in our society, the body's wisdom is so minimized over the brain's. And yet, the emotional answers to our questions are often found by slowing down and becoming aware of where we feel things in our body. Sometimes, when we do this, our need to find an answer dissipates and we can feel the joy of the present moment.

If you find yourself fighting against the tide this week (classic Mercury retrograde energy!), try to remember to slow down. Allow yourself to surrender to the waves instead of fighting them.
