Have you ever wanted something so big and had no idea how it would happen? That’s the vibe of the current energies. Deep in our hearts, we all know we can do better, but how do we pull it off?
A friend of mine recently had a house fire. Everyone was physically okay, but her family was displaced and faced massive renovations. It was tragic, yet she also told me that leading up to the fire, she felt so sick of her kitchen and wanted to tear it all up.
Everything has to burn down for the phoenix to rise. 2025 is the phoenix. And right now, pretty much everything has burned. I’m not talking about literal fires. Metaphorically, we’ve walked through flames. During this solstice time of darkness in the Northern Hemisphere, take a moment to look at yourself. Go within, recount the tales, and tune into the legend you are. We learn through shared experiences and each other’s stories. When we’re together, the darkness isn’t so scary.
In the spirit of storytelling, I’m infusing this space with more of my journey. For years, I had a vision of the life I wanted; the future Shannon was healthy, happy and sober, but I was far from it when I moved to a new continent in 2021. I settled there, learned a language, and lost 50 pounds. I then left this new home and travelled around the world, literally circling the Earth. Next, I ended a relationship of 13 years and moved again, this time to the other side of the world. It all led to an emotional meltdown. Deep grief surfaced, and I could no longer manage my life, which placed me on a recovery journey and building a functioning relationship with myself. I’m sharing my process to show how growth is a series of steps; there are milestones and moments to pause, followed by moments to move.
Imagine there’s something in your life you want to shift, something you want to change or experience differently. Picture it as a river.
Now imagine yourself across the river. You’re having the experiences you want; you’ve worked through the things. You don’t have to know how you arrived. Just tune into the view, feelings, and vibe from over there. What does the ground below your feet feel like on the other side?
Come back to where you are, on this side of the river. You see stones appearing, like a series of steps guiding you forward. You know you have to test each stone to ensure it’s sturdy. You can’t rush forward. Where do you step first from this place of power, patience, and presence?
Now, just let it all go, be human and go about your day, letting life and the ethers send subsequent stones your way.
They say it’s darkest before dawn, and the first light is coming. We might not be able to see anything through this thick, dark atmosphere. Yet, within yourself, you know. Deep down, feel your happy ending emerging. We didn’t go through these intense journeys to keep repeating and re-enacting old pain.
The best way to end these cycles is to recognize how we have evolved. If we choose to be the change, the patterns shift. The external world will inevitably respond when we approach life differently. Let’s recognize that my insights are not exact; I'm just an artist doing her best to make sense of the universe and create something real. Deep down, I feel there’s more to humanity’s story and our individual journeys. There are solutions on the horizon. Just like morning stars, they’re appearing.
What do you know deep down?
What’s shining in your inner space?
What is the stardust within you saying?
Now is the season to go into the darkness, center and ask yourself these questions. Ask them with curiosity, an open heart and even excitement. When we relax, we lighten the darkness, which is the sweet spot. We’re in a space between realms, between an ending and a beginning. This moment of emergence is where creation lives. When a seed enters a dark womb, life is born.
Don’t buy into the fear. Let’s admit it: We’ve been desperate for change. Something had to give; we couldn’t keep on that way. What if we’re witnessing the fire leading us to our desired renovations or the breakdown leading to our best selves?
Let what wants to go, go and what wants to come, come. Know you’ve got life with you every step of the way. Trust yourself. From this place of faith, turn your focus to everything else.
