The Fire of Your Personal Power
The universal element of fire represents
transformation, creation, and empowerment. Fire’s energy is a
powerful tool to bring thoughts and words into action. We can
effectively use fire’s energy in our lives when our personal power
is aligned with our soul, and our intention is spoken with
authority.
It is important to harness your fire through
speaking and commanding with a voice of authority and power.
Learning to embrace this task will help you gain a strong sense of
self and obtain your needs from the world around you.
‘Command’ and ‘authority’ are a strong choice of words for a
spiritual concept. It is likely to trigger images of someone being
authoritarian, rigid, and controlling; traits that contradict being
able to go with the flow and be in the present moment. Yet, both
play an important role in spiritual paths.
Finding your fire
is about tapping into your personal power; your ability to say yes
or no to things. It is about deeply having a clear vision of self at
a soul level (versus the conscious mind), and then standing up and
declaring to God and the Universe what you are all about, and what
you intend to manifest. It is about declaring with every ounce of
your fire that, “I am staying the course, no matter what. I am
single minded on my course. I am not wishy-washy. I am not easily
swayed. I stay the course.”
Why is this important? I believe
that until you are strong and forceful about this, your life can be
like limbo, feeling stuck without being able to find an exit or
solution.
Many of us want
abundance, yet it alludes us. Fear
sets in. We say the words “I am abundant in all ways.” However, when
two weeks go by and things are the same, we turn to worry, often
feeling frustrated and alone. At some point we need to step up and
say; “I am no longer afraid. I trust God and the Universe to support
my abundance. I declare this as I am worthy and deserving.”
Declaring your worthiness and truly believing it is a huge
expression of your personal fire! Once declared, never step onto
that ‘fear path’ again. Be single focused in your trust, and enjoy
each day with joy. Watch and see what happens.
If this seems
scary, consider what do you have to lose? The other way isn’t
working, so it is time to try something else. Let your personal fire
fuel this new direction.
Several years ago, I was working
about 30% more than usual while seeing only a small financial gain.
Although I affirmed my abundance, I was exhausted in my execution
of it. My heart and soul did not want my life to be all work. My
heart and soul wanted time for reflection, time with nature, and
time for fun. I finally declared from a place of spiritual alignment
and with a sense of worthiness, “God, I do not want to work this
hard. I am scaling back to have time for my spiritual self and for
me. I trust you to bring me a way to support myself in this life
style. I intend this, as I am worthy to have it.”
After
this bold declaration, I never looked back. I cut back on my events
and client appointments and I started to carve out time for
activities of my choosing. I never worried about how it was going to
work; I just did it. All of a sudden 5 months had gone by, and I
realized I was still able to pay all my bills.
How did this
happen? I realized that by reducing the number of events I held,
50% more people were coming to each one. So instead of facilitating
two small groups, and traveling out to see them, one large group was
coming to see me. The time gained by not traveling, preparing for,
and holding so many events was easily used for my personal goals and
for a few additional client sessions each week. In this same period
I was also gifted with an unexpected, sizeable reduction in rent. It
may not have been what I expected, but it sure worked! I had time
for me and the money needed to support myself in a much easier
manner than before.
Declare your soul’s desire with the fire
of your personal power. Then step out and act like what you declare
is true. Your
angels and guides will help make it all happen, even
if it happens in unexpected ways.
