We've spent so much of this year shifting and changing. There has been grief, letting go, changes in families and jobs, relationships changing, old contracts ending, and a whole lot of figuring out what still belongs in our lives. Then August and the first part of September felt like Spirit kept asking us to look at what really matters. Where do you want to go? What actually aligns with you now? What are you ready to leave behind? This week Spirit came in very strongly with, okay, now we take action. I kept seeing this horse that's been chomping at the bit and hitting at the gate, ready to get out. That's what this feels like. Something may happen this week that pushes or propels you forward, and I think for many of us there is an opportunity connected to it. Everybody's opportunity will look different. It could be work, school, a project, something creative, money, a relationship, or simply a chance to finally move something that has felt stuck. The interesting part is that you may not know exactly how you're going to make it work. That's where the creative spark comes in this week. You may find yourself saying, "I really want to do this. I don't know how all the pieces are going to come together yet, but I'm going to give it a try." Maybe you apply for something. Maybe you sign up for the class. Maybe you put yourself out there. Maybe you start the project you've been talking about forever. You plant the seed before you know exactly how it's going to bear fruit. And I really want us to watch comparison this week. You may see somebody else get the promotion, find the relationship, have the opportunity, or get something you've been waiting for and immediately think, "Well, why is it happening for them and not me?" Come back to your own path. You're in charge of what you do with your life from here. Your opportunity doesn't have to look like somebody else's opportunity. Archangel Michael came through very strongly this week because there is excitement here, but there can also be fear around change. He's helping us stay grounded, protected, and courageous enough to move when something opens. Ask Michael to help you clear the fear, especially if your first reaction to something new is to immediately think of all the reasons it can't work. And remember, you're not doing all of this alone. Your angels, guides, loving ancestors, higher self, and Spirit are part of the team. Let them do their work while you do yours. 💜 Love & RelationshipsRelationships feel a little tricky this week because everybody seems to have somewhere they're trying to go. There's a strong forward-moving energy, and that can make people a little prickly. You may see more ego flare-ups, people trying to prove themselves, people feeling protective of what they have, or that "I've gotta get mine" energy. You don't have to participate in all of it. This may actually be a really good week to become the octopus. 😂 I kept getting that image of an octopus that can pull itself in, observe what's happening around it, and decide whether it even needs to get involved. There may be conversations this week where the smartest thing you can do is sit back and watch for a minute. If you're partnered, your significant other may be going through something with work, money, coworkers, a boss, or their own future plans. You could hear, "Can you believe what they said in that meeting?" or "My boss did this," and suddenly you're both worked up about it. Be clear about what you need from each other. Sometimes it helps to simply say, "I'm venting. I don't need you to fix this. I just need to talk about it for a minute." And if you both start getting irritated, ask yourselves whether the problem is actually between the two of you. You don't want somebody else's workplace drama becoming an argument in your kitchen. For singles, there is a similar message around staying out of other people's emotional chaos. If somebody is coming into your life with a lot of drama, mixed signals, or emotional intensity, observe before you jump in and try to rescue, fix, or figure everything out for them. You have your own things opening right now. Friends and family may need some grace too. People are under pressure. That doesn't mean you allow somebody to treat you badly, but you may understand a situation differently once the energy settles down later in the week. And if you're the one who gets prickly, own it. If you say something you wish you hadn't said, apologize. You don't have to spend three days beating yourself up about it. "I'm sorry. My energy was flaring and I shouldn't have said that." Then give the other person room to process it. I do feel people understanding each other a little better toward the end of the week. 💜 Work, Money & PurposeWork, career and life purpose are big this week. If an opportunity comes up, look at it. If you've been thinking about applying somewhere, apply. If you've been considering school, training, learning a new skill, starting something creative, building your own business, writing something, creating art, learning Reiki, changing careers, or doing something that expands what you're capable of doing, this is a great week to start putting energy behind it. You may not have everything figured out before you begin. Maybe you find the program you want and wonder how you're going to pay for it. Look for grants. Look for scholarships. See whether you can pay as you go. Ask questions. Find another route. This is a very resourceful week. I had my own little lesson in this when I uploaded one of my meditations and discovered something had gone wrong with the video. I had spent days on it. I learned new software. I rolled the whole thing out, gave members early access, did all the work, and then realized part of it had been clipped. Are you kidding me? 😂 I had to pull it down, fix it, and upload the whole thing again. And then the new upload got about twice the views. That is exactly the kind of energy I'm talking about this week. Something may not work the first way you planned it. Fine. Get creative. Fix what needs fixing and keep going. Don't spend so much time being mad about the problem that you miss what the problem is redirecting you toward. At work, be careful about getting pulled too deeply into situations that don't deserve all of your attention. You could spend half the week thinking about something somebody said, an email, a meeting, or some office drama, only to discover by Friday that it worked itself out. Keep your eyes on your own opportunity. Money may require some creativity too. An unexpected bill could show up, something may cost more than you expected, or you may need to rearrange something financially. Before going straight into "Oh my God, how am I going to pay for this?" look at the details. Call somebody. Ask questions. Look at the itemized bill. See whether there's another plan or another option. I had that happen with my internet bill. It basically doubled, and of course my first thought was, "What the heck?" I called them, found out my plan had ended, and they offered another plan that brought the bill right back down and even gave me a credit. Sometimes the resource is a phone call. If something financial comes up this week, ask your spiritual team for help finding the answer, then go look for the answer. 💜 Energy & IntuitionThe energy around us is going to be pretty heightened, so I want you paying attention to what you're picking up from other people. This is another reason Michael is so strong this week. If you walk into a meeting, a store, a family situation, or anywhere else and suddenly feel anxious, irritated, defensive, or overwhelmed, ask yourself whether that energy was yours before you walked in. You may need to pull your energy back, cleanse more often, cut cords, or simply give yourself some space from people who are having a rough time. And intuition itself is strong, but I want us to keep it simple. One of the things I talked about in the reading is my imaginary coin flip. When you're trying to figure out what your intuition is saying, imagine flipping a coin in your head. Before that imaginary coin even lands, notice what you're hoping it says. There's your first answer. The problem comes when we immediately start talking over it. You get the intuitive hit and then the brain comes marching in with 47 reasons why that couldn't possibly be right. 😂 Give that first feeling a little room. Your intuition has probably taken years to understand. Mine certainly did. We've learned what our own signs feel like, how our bodies respond, what a yes feels like, what a no feels like, and what fear feels like. Use what you've learned. And when the world around you gets loud this week, don't let everybody else's fear become louder than your own inner knowing. 💜 Predictions / What to Watch ForThe first thing I would watch for is an opening early in the week. It could feel like somebody is knocking, a door cracks open, an opportunity appears, or suddenly there's a way forward with something you've wanted to do. You may still have to figure out how to make it work, but I wouldn't dismiss it simply because every piece isn't sitting neatly in front of you yet. Around the middle of the week, I think some people are going to have a moment where they decide to go for something without knowing exactly how it's going to come together. You may apply, sign up, say yes, start researching, make the call, or put something into motion. Then the resources begin appearing as you move. I also think we're going to see some heightened personalities and ego clashes, particularly around work. Somebody may be worried about their position, money, job security, recognition
