There's always a lesson we're supposed to learn

[kimmerspixelated]

when things get rough. I am wondering if there is any way to preview what I am supposed to learn, so that I can maybe get through things a little easier. It's one thing to have a plan, do this, get through that, blah, blah, blah, but I'm really hurting today and I'm wondering if it is as simple as looking for clues in everyday signs and numbers, that kind of thing...? DO I just say I AM Open to healing and the universe delivers??

1. Yes,

Don't question why. Just let the universe know that you don't need the lesson (unless you really do need it), and to help you through this as gently as possible.

Whenever we ask why something is happening the universe figures we didn't get the lesson, and makes it happen again. Over and over again, as long as we keep asking why.

I wish you well kimmers. You are loved and valued here.

2. Thanks, Kookaburra,

That's an interesting take. I'm misty now..:hug:

3. I think it's about getting your attention.

Agree w/kookaburra, it's about jolting you out of a situation, rut, "comfort zone" for your own good, or growth. If things get too miserable for us, we will usually take some action to escape the misery.
If it helps, I'm going thru this now myself......I think LOTS of people are.
Hang in there.

4. Yes, your MIND cannot solve it

figuring it out won't work
as they said above, let it flow up from the silent voice
let it be, then you'll know because you are very wise
Neptune will take all of us quite some time to adjust too, but we will
It makes you very very sensitive for "no reason"

6. Once again, Thank You!

How long will Neptune be making us SO sensitive...??

But if you are listening to the silent voice..aren't you using your mind to decipher?



****Or maybe you are saying our hearts have invisible but freakishly large ears??(HAHA)

Either way, Heavy Sigh, my friends, Heavy Sighs!

8. It's not how long Neptune will affect us

she'll be with us always, and in Pisces for about 12 more years but
it the beginning part where we have to get used to the CONTRAST between Neptune which WAS in Aquarius and is NOW in Pisces.

Aquarians base EVERYTHING on the mind. That is the one final lesson of the zodiac, the highest degree of mind is Aquarius, the highest degree of feeling is Pisces.

So the impulses (I think) from the heart or the silent voice is not decipherable or arguable or able to be intellectualized.
It just IS.

If you are thinking, it's not the silent voice
the silent voice works thru KNOWING. At least, that's my opinion and I tried to say it as clearly as possible.
In other words, make it simple: HOW DO YOU FEEL?

PERIOD? My opinion is that your heart will save you.

14. Thanks, Rick, ma dear!

I think(uh-oh).. there are a number of things within my heart..I realized that was the problem...if it was just one thing...it would be so much easier. I guess you are going to tell me the heart part that is possibly attached to the ego just a hair, must be less of a consideration?

[Ricochet21]

16. Oh we all get so worried about ego ego

Just state how you feel, that's not ego, that's just you. Your heart is beyond ego :hug:

12. I can SO relate to being sensitive over the past week...

getting teary over small things...over things from the past and feeling such empathy and sorry for certain people, and getting teary all over again...I do know all of these things are coming up to be healed and it's so true that it's important to let them "flow". Feel better everyone!

5. I hope things get better for you soon, kimmers.

I'm sorry that you're hurting so much. :(

:hug:

7. I Heart You!

Thanks!:hug:

10. kimmers, I have absolute faith that you'll get through this...

and come out on the other side much wiser. When I've been in situations where I just don't know what to do, I have simply forced myself to choose the most loving thing that I can do in reference to every decision I have to make or action I have to take regardless of what my ego was telling me to do. (Of course, while also taking care of myself.) These periods of time are the times when I've grown the most in this life. They are so painful but when they're over, I've always been a stronger person and soul from having gone through them.

I just posted this quotation on my Facebook wall, and I'm posting it here because maybe I got it to share with you. Sometimes we need to be reminded that we're so much more than this little ego being who is going through this painful experience. You are an amazing being of light and love and have everything you need within Yourself to get through this and be better for having done so.

"I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but they whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves their conduct, will pursue their principles unto death." ~ Leonardo da Vinci

Finally, as you may already know, Ganesha is the Hindu god who is widely revered as the Remover of Obstacles and as Lord of Beginnings. May you be graced by Lord Ganesha staying close to you as you make your way through this difficult time. (Even if you don't resonate with Ganesha as an actual being, the Universe can still bless you with aid in these areas.)

15. Oh, My Goodness, Wow!

I can't thank you enough for these wise words. I am going to print these posts out , because I treasure them so much. Ganesha, Huh? Before I read it, I was so intrigued by this pic of the Buddha elephant!! HAHA! Your the tops!

9. That's a tough one.

From what I understand of the way things work, we have lessons to learn, and we'll learn them somehow. And it seems as though not knowing just what those lessons are supposed to be is a fundamental aspect of how it all goes.

I know that for me, asking myself "What lesson am I supposed to be learning here" can actually sometimes help me. I'll come up with some possibilities, knowing that I may not have figured out if any of them are even correct, but simply pondering them seems to help.

Hope things do get better for you.

11. "Change doesn't happen in our comfort zone"

... so says my wonderful mentor Andrea Hess.

I would agree with the wisdom others are sharing here: let your Guides know that you got the lesson this go-round. Often when lessons hit us HARD it's because we didn't see the signs the first couple times. And that's okay because it's how we learn. You can also ask your Guides to send future lessons in a gentler way and your part is to get them the first (or second) time around.

Remember that at all times you create what's going on around you so if you don't like what's going on, work to shift your vibration attract what you DO want. Being open to healing is but one part of it. Action is the key. Ask for guidance (be as specific as possible), be open to receive it, and then TAKE ACTION on what you get.

19. I completely agree with you, mysticalchick.

I tell the Universe all the time that I truly want to learn my lessons because I know that they are for my highest good and that I set them up for myself before I came here. I feel that because it's understood that I'm open to them rather than resisting, my lessons tend to be pretty gentle. There are definitely exceptions, but when it gets to the point where the Universe has done everything except bop you upside the head, and you still haven't learned what you're supposed to learn because you're resisting, you're going to get bopped upside the head next.

Bottom line: If you're truly trying to learn or to even understand what you are supposed to be learning, that goes a long way with the Universe; It wants to be gentle. I sometimes just have to tell It to speak more loudly. :D

13. "I AM Open"

Those are some very powerful words, my dear friend. I know you are feeling beat up from the things coming down in your world right now, but those three words are your own Spirit, reminding you to stay pliable and flexible as you are moulded into something and someone NEW

talk about owning your knowing! :hug: betcha didn't even know you knew that! :)

When i am in that state of crux andf flux, one thing that is good to remember is that our 'oversoul' or 'spiritself' is was and will always be accessible...since all lifetimes are happening at once, you have the power to tap into the self that is an amazon queen, a wise priestess, a goddess... know that you have those answers already inside you. the only thing that makes you think you have a 'lesson to learn' or that you don;t already know it is the illusion that you are this little 'human' who doesn;t know diddly.

you already KNOW... time is the illusion...
so by saying you are OPEN, you can open the door to access those pieces of your spirit that are all knowing and wise.
and it also doesn't hurt to tell your own guides and angels to be gentle, that you are feeling like a 'little human' and need them to go easy on you...

:hug: i know you will be just fine, you already ARE!

17. Wow!, Thanks FirstLight!

I will definitely keep all your good points in mind, and will try this. Thanks for OPENING up to me, with this!!!:hug:
