It has been quite a storm of spirituality lately, hasn’t it? It has brought about much change in my life, but now I notice that my feelings are changing tack.
I feel bored with the spiritual hype.
I followed it for two years and got right into all the things. I focused hard, and I went in deep. However, I see now, that –
An Open Ajna perfect storm.
And an Open G dream.
(I am referencing Human Design not-self keynotes).
The spiritual hype is old. “Homogenised”. And much of it is recycled and unethical.
What I’ve learned is that my way forward is the 9-centred way. This means, figuring out and living life as MYSELF. Not following the diet and “wellness” mania, the 5am club, asleep by a certain hour, daily this or that, abstaining from whatever – just because someone wrote a book about it being beneficial.
My open head has gobbled up SO MUCH random information and inspiration over the years, but it’s a hungry ghost. Never satisfied, because it has no idea what’s inspiring, or not.
Human Design has shown me deeply who and how I am, conscious and unconscious. It is an experiment that I am living, and discovering more about myself, the good parts and the shady. I am stronger than I’ve ever been, because I know how to live as myself. I’m here living life and it isn’t “perfect”, but so what? The point came that I had to let go and just let life live me, and that’s what I’m doing.
There is no one “right way” to live. No one right path to satisfaction, success, peace, or surprise.
Following a mental trip like trying to squeeze into a certain size, job, relationship or interest can only meet frustration, bitterness, anger, or disappointment.
My solution?
Know yourself, see your uniqueness, your shady parts, your brilliance, gifts, skills, life path trajectory, and culmination of experience that makes you a unique and specialised being.
Human Design and Astrology have shown me this about myself, and it has changed my life dramatically, like it has for many others.
It is not a secret that material gains bring mostly temporary happiness – temporary rushes in dopamine and validation. But the greatest pleasure in life comes from knowing yourself inside out and discovering that you possess the courage live fully this truest version of yourself.
I have always loved money and nice things, but what I didn’t expect from starting this journey was just how much sweeter material additions would become since knowing myself as deeply as I do, and living correctly as a Projector.
I invite you to know yourself in a new way; to stop chasing after what you’re not, and allow your cells to relax. Living a life of least resistance, not because me or someone else told you that this is your purpose or journey, but because this is what you have figured out for yourself through saying Yes to being different. In this way, you are on the path to true love, which includes loving others for how they are, too.
