Obstacles and Your Intuition

I went for a hike yesterday. It was cloudy and the weather apps all said there was a 60% chance of rain. The people ahead of me on the trail were deciding whether or not to keep going. I was almost half way through the loop and I kept having this vision of walking along the green hills, farther than we'd (sammy the dog and i) gone before. Didn't make sense, this vision pulling me forward. So many people turning back because of impending rain. It didn't feel right to turn around, my body actually felt heavy...turning around out of fear of something that may or may not happen. Though, it did seem like it would rain. I had an umbrella. What's the worst? We get muddy? We get wet? I decided to just trust that whatever was going to happen was going to be a part of this vision I had to wander sprawling green hills. We kept going. The sky cleared. The hills were so alive and green, my whole nervous system sighed with relief. We adventured and found new places to explore, more magic to take in and of course, my trusty trail friend (sammy the dog) found a lost ball for us to play catch with. It never rained. The trails were cleared with people. We felt free.

​Listen and trust your own inner voice. Even if there are obstacles, trust it is a part of the process because sometimes there will be rain or hail or mud or a fallen something blocking the way. Sometimes there won't be. Obstacles don't mean that your intuition is wrong. Sometimes we are lead in a direction to learn perseverance and persistence and the power of our own strength; your devotion your inner truth. Keep checking in. Making offerings to divine within you to honor the love that is always guiding your way. Notice what feels like a contraction in your body when you move back away from your vision, truth or desire. Notice what it feels like to move towards what propels you to feel more open and spacious, happy and free. Your body never, ever lies.
