The awakening process is, I believe, closely linked to the process of rebirth. This often feels like the energy of the Tower card—the experience of watching life as you know it crumble around you. That collapse triggers other shifts as you begin shaping a new reality. It is a necessary step to take you from your old self into what will become your new and conscious version of self. You start noticing behaviours and situations that once seemed “ok” but no longer feel acceptable. Things like rudeness and unfairness, TV programmes filled with violent content, news reports of war and famine in real time, endless true crime documentaries, the rude colleague at work, or even the subscription provider that charges extra fees just to remove ads.
You notice these things with a heightened awareness because you are no longer tangled in the web of illusion and separateness. You begin to watch as an observer. From that place, you can see you have a choice: you can engage with these things, or you can simply observe them and let them go. You can decide your level of involvement and the type of response you give. You are no longer blindly following a world designed to keep our heads down and our minds distracted—so that we don’t awaken to the truth that we are much more: bigger, brighter, and more divine than we have been led to believe.
It is no coincidence that you are coming across this message now. You are meant to awaken too. And as you awaken, you help others awaken. As you are shown the way, you also show the way—through your journey and through the experiences you’ve lived during this transition from tamed to free.
This is not arrogance, nor is it separation. It is the opposite. It is recognising other versions of yourself and offering a hand to those who will take it. Some will choose not to—and that is their choice. But we are one. We came to you through others like you, and we come to others through you.
All that is asked of you is to make yourself available—to be of service, freely and with joy.
What I wish I knew or understood from the start (wherever the start was), is that awakening is not a destination. It is a path you walk each day, choosing honesty, love, and awareness. Every choice you make—what you consume, how you respond, how you treat yourself—shapes the world you live in. And as you shift, the world shifts with you.
You do not attract what you want. You attract what you are. By becoming the embodiment of what you seek, life has no choice but to reflect it back at you.
