Here are a few quick things to keep the relationship with your inner Gemini and those who are Gemini. This is not the ultimate list but contains a few reminders of some basics. This is how to build a healthy soul.
1. Gemini is ruled by Mercury. This means that Gemini is the sign of intellect and communication in the physical and, as such, have a strength for information, speed, talking, many projects on the go and knowledge across many different topics.
2. Gemini is speed. Gemini can be fast to the point of skimming and lacking depth in their life. As an Air sign, they like the stimulation. Gemini might find challenges in love with Earth signs as they may be too heavy and slow for a Gemini. Gemini will want to be on the move and adventurous for someone like a heavy Taurus or Capricorn.
3. Gemini and fusion. Gemini occurs during a time when we are building our possibilities for the next year which is a time to fuse the spiritual world with the physical. Basically, we can all manifest something new during this month and overcome something negative about ourselves in the process.
4. Twins of Gemini. Gemini is represented by the twins which represents the extremes of two worlds within. The good and dark and other dualities create a Gemini personality finding challenges, focus and balance or being calm very challenging. This leads to doubts and uncertainties. Focus is the key for Gemini.
5. Gemini's grounding. When a Gemini can overcome their nature, they find a better ability to cope and more satisfaction in life as they will be able to get roots, form deeper relationships, commit to what is in their life and settle their energy that can be very flighty. It is an air sign, and like the air, can be very hard to pin down or capture.
Here are a few quick things to help you overcome ego. This is not the ultimate list but contains a few reminders of some basics. This is how to build a healthy heart and soul.
1. Ego is the opponent. The ego lives in the last place you would think to look. It resides within and is our greatest challenge.
2. Ego is many different things. Ego is not just arrogance but the whole array of negative behaviour that can be expressed. It can include anger, jealousy, shyness, low self esteem, failure gossiping, impatience and anything that can make you feel better at the cost of someone else.
3. The game of ego. The game of our ego is to beat it. It is to overcome these negative traits and reveal our true selves. If we can overcome our negativity, we can master our own lives and control our destiny.
4. Ego at work. The ego is constantly on the go and we must be aware of how we react to challenges and change. The work we have to do is change our reactions and become proactive.
5. Beat the ego. Ego sabotages our success. To gain the things in our lives we really want we must hear the ego and do the opposite no matter how illogical it seems. The illogical is the logical in getting what you want.
The world can enable us to feel a sense of deserving. Why is better to earn something? How does deserving do us a disservice? What are the results of earning over deserving?
There are many cases of people in financially challenging situations who have won a lot of money. We get a sense inside of us that this is wonderfully fair and a great deal of good has been done. However, in a lot of cases, this new found wealth has led to disaster within these families including gaol, murder, bankruptcy and family distress. This sudden bolt of injection has burnt them like toast.
The better alternative is for us to grow with success. If we are financially challenged it is better for us to earn money and grow slowly within and outside for us to deal and grow with what is coming.
The same principal can be applied to a new relationship, job, family or project. For us to start to overcome our personal challenges and goals, we need to feel a sense of ownership and growth that is comparative. The more we earn, the more we feel positive about what we have including appreciation, joy and happiness, while a quick fix-it usually brings jealousy, chaos and more distress. Taking proactive steps to earn will lead to fulfillment and further prosperity.
In a speedy time when the world goes at a crazy pace and pressure and challenges are very present in our lives, it's important to take an audit of who we are. Are we behaving true to ourselves? Are we representing ourselves correctly in hard times? What do we want our time to represent and with what character do we want to express?
When challenges, pressures or hard time come into our lives it's very easy for us to become highly reactive. We can become angry, destructive, anxious, worried and all of those negative traits. We can also behave in a way which we think others want to behave and short-change ourselves through wanting to please creating our character as a victim.
It's good to have a mantra about who we are in these times. Start to consider the three most important and positive ways of behaviour the really characterise the true essence of us. It could be creative, balanced, powerful, loving and those kinds of attributes. This way we can look back and know we were true to how we want to be represented.
The same ingredient in anyone's cake of success is constancy to purpose. When do we fall away from our desires? Why is it so hard to reach that next level? What is constancy to purpose about?
One of the challenges in life is achieving a desire, a goal or a different existence with something than to what we have now. We have dreams, ambitions and yearn for some way of making a difference in our lives and the lives of others.
Generally, in the process of a goal, we might make one or two steps towards it or in fact go right up to a point where we are almost there. At that final hurdle something out of the blue happens. An unexpected occurrence happens that we have never counted on and would have been impossible to foresee. The universe sends a challenge so big for us that it goes from being another hurdle to an 20 foot high fence causing a block.
For most people, one look at the fence and we back away even knowing that their dream was just on the other side of it. Rather than pursue any attempt at getting over the fence, the ego kicks in our heads saying that told you so, that it's all too hard, we never could do it and we were never meant to have it. Boom. We resume to our victim status. The dream fades and the work we did before the fence disappears into thin air as if we never tried.
The universe never sends us a small hurdle or a large fence we can't overcome. However, in the grand design of life and the perfect order of light, it knows that we have a lesson to learn and a strength to find in order to maintain our goal and share it. Therefore, that big hurdle is a perfectly placed fence required to give us the grounding to cherish and receive the gift of our desire. The fence is necessary part of the process and run for it, jump it and land on the other side of it with certainty. It's all designed for you. Stay constant to your purpose.
It is very easy to go through life holding on to pain. Why is it hard to forget the past? Is the fear and pain real? How do we open our hearts and love unconditionally?
Amongst pain, hatred, fear, loss, anger, guilt and other such negative emotions, it becomes very easy for us to lose the power of our positivity. We can look for very short terms answers and quick, easy ways to then heal us of our problems which can often heighten the negativity. Looking for simple remedies through hurting others, over-indulging, gossipping and other such behaviours to boost our own esteem in fact bolster the issue and detach us from our true selves even further.
For connection back to our love, vitality, creativity, joy and fearless behaviour, we must return to a space without limitation. We must open our hearts to conceive a world without boundaries. These boundaries can be physical and personal. It is possible to heal our hearts by closing the gap with the ones with whom we feel the pain. Perhaps not always directly with the person, but at least in our minds, we must bring ourselves to hold unconditional love and in fact appreciation for these actions.
The love and appreciation for what lesson they have taught us and how that strengthened us as human beings will heal the damage. While revenge, jealousy and rage can drive our reactions, once you establish a firm footing in the world of thanks and gratitude, their actions will hold no power over us and we can carry on regardless defusing our stress and regaining proactive actions and certainty in our life. Let go and keep remembering how good it is have known the lesson.
The universe provides in a perfectly organised and divine order. What are the ways we can tap into this order? Why does everything have order? How does this order impact us?
In a universe where energy for the soul is endless, it would make sense that we are able to tap into this power or light when we wish and receive in moments without any realisation of time or space. However, in true soul work, we need to earn and share our abundance or desires to truly move our soul more towards this light.
Each point along this journey to our desire, we receive rewards for our spiritual work from the universe by placing us in the right situations to earn or to share. If the reward is a challenging situation on the journey, we must earn our way to our desire, for example, by finding certainty or pushing against our ego. If the reward a situation of opportunity along the journey we have opportunity to share with others which pushes us forward towards our desires and be like the light.
In the perfect order of the universe our desires are achieved by providing us opportunity to connect with the light increasingly and develop the relationship with the universe's energy. Always remember that where we are along our journey is the right spot for us and where we are meant to be. Remain in a state of appreciation that these challenges and/or opportunities are strengthening our soul to prepare us well for all the abundance we want to receive.
Finding the light or finding the good in every situation is a great challenge. What is the light? How do we become thankful for every situation? Why do we need to see the light in even the worst of situations.
Life and the world is full of bad things happening to good people all the time. It is hard to find the purpose of someone having a serious illness, losing their job or not living in peaceful countries. To understand or find the reason why we are thrown into discomfort are sometimes beyond us.
In times of immense challenge and despair, we need to look for the good or the light. We are given these challenges as opportunities to work hard against our ego. This is the chaos in which we can dig deep to find what true power we have inside to bring rectification. It is our chance to be proactive and demonstrate our good, strong, sharing, true nature rather than react and fall into a spiral of anger, fear, despair, pity or other negative emotions.
Life gives us a chance to fall. The further we fall the higher we bounce back and the more light and good we become. Our intention and behaviour during darkness is what leads to the success of our desires. We have more chance of success from hard challenges than having things too easy. From the opportunity to learn something about ourselves, face a challenge and the chance to earn our way out of hardship, we are given a space to be thankful.
Freedom comes from structure. Why is planning so important? Why does change come from committing to the goal? How do we create structure?
Through structure and keeping committed to our goals we bring a new window to open and let in a new freedom. Letting go of our limitations, fears and angst allows a space to dream. From fear, we are locked into our comfort zone and nothing new can evolve. Previously, we would write down goals for a year and surely enough achieve them. However, a year can not give enough time to go for the big stuff.
Of course,anything to be planned beyond a year or even a week for some of us can be met with fear. How could we ever commit to something for so long, so far away and invent something so big? However, if we do set a few desires and put in place some structure, we can be amazed at how we begin to open to express the kinds of things we truly wanted to do.
The next step on is to take it in three month chunks.Three months durations allows me to see the steps I need to take to get to the end goal. Expanding our goals helps get better results and ultimately bigger things to share. Marcus Weston, so well and beautifully said, "Be responsible and trust yourself." The idea to trust in the core belief that we can do it and the implication that the change will come from within us is amazingly empowering.
Every day, from applying a little structure , we now see a little miracle that happens giving us a break to get closer to what we truly desire. Albert Einstein is quoted as believing, "There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle." Dream big and structure will bring the dreams to your life and give you the freedom you want. Time to watch for the miracles!
Often, we live in a great deal of comfort in how far we believe we can extend ourselves. Wouldn't it be great if we could push just that bit further? How much more could we achieve if we stepped past our comfort zone? Can we make our lives as big as possible?
It's a real challenge in our day to day lives to see our potential beyond what we are doing. Each day holds a certain amount of routine and expectation. Within this routine we build a boundary or a barrier to what we could possibly be really achieving. We often dream of great things we could do but have a fear of putting these dreams on the line and turning them into reality.
What is a great desire to have in five years time? The challenge is not about creating a goal or aspiration as that can be something we do each day or each week, but to dig deep and commit to something that is big enough to hold for five years is a real stretch. The stretch is one desire we can really focus on beyond our daily and weekly routine.
To create a true desire it must be something that we ultimately share with other people. On top of pushing the desire to be a big stretch we must almost push past the boundary of whom we are willing to share the desire. We must push past the family, the friends, the neighbour and out into the community. The bigger the desire, the bigger the share and stretching ourselves to our full and true potential and fulfilment. Only then, real change is going to come.
Fulfilment hits us in short bursts. How do we attain ongoing fulfilment? What is it we want that would sustain a life that is constantly fulfilling? Is it something we deserve?
To be living a life in fear, jealousy, resentment or other egotistical states deprives us of the key thing we want to achieve. To be caught in the routine, trapped in the humdrum or the state of being a victim leads us on a road to nowhere. We forget our choices.
In our lives we can often feel the beauty of fulfilment and how living in the bursts of fulfilment delivers short amounts of joy. Yehuda Berg says, “Happiness is an effect of being the cause". In other words, a great first step to ongoing fulfilment is to be aware of our lives and start to make changes that differ from our current decisions. Create the power of choice. Take control of all that is wrong and be responsible.
Little things can start to achieve this such as getting up at different times, choose different things to buy, go to shops you would not normally enter or wait for the train at a different part of the platform and gradually from that confidence start to make larger decisions outside normal comfort zones. When the change is uncomfortable, the better we become at choice and ultimately ongoing fulfilment.
From the place of cause rather than effect, we can begin a journey into fulfilment. We can start to travel down a road earning the key things we want to achieve a face the challenges slowly on a bigger and bigger scale. As we achieve and gain more fulfilment, we have placed ourselves in place of an open heart and mind to share, thus keeping our fulfilment ongoing. The sharing of what we have is what sustains the growth and the fulfilment. In those moments we chose to receive fulfilment for ourselves, and not to share, is the instant in which the sensation diminishes.
