Grounding

You long for the free and open worlds of Spirit and light, yet you also yearn to experience the healing power and divine joy of sacred sound and living color. You are meant to bring joy, beauty and comfort to this world, to share the spiritual light. To do so, you need grounding. Your dreams want you just as much as you want them. Grounding helps you bring your dreams to life in your world for the benefit of many.

When a reminder comes from higher guidance to ground oneself, it is a loving encouragement, never a judgment. Grounding is a spiritual version of “remembering to call your mother.” It is a chance to check in with what is happening in your physical life and make sure you are giving appropriate time  and energy to what really maters to your heart. It is a chance to make sure your spiritual work is being applied in your life in ways that feel good for you. It is a chance to speak your prayers, rather than only think them. You might even dance them or create a colorful offering for your altar or sing them from your heart.

We are guided to ground ourselves when there has been an increase of light to the head. This can occur through meditation, prayer or conscious connection with Spirit. You might be on fire with ideas and inspiration, but struggling to express them all practically. You may even feel congested or tense in parts of your body where the energy needs  some help to flow. This is a sign to move in a way that feels freeing, strengthening and expressive and to add healthy relaxation and exercise into your lifestyle to allow for healing to occur. Then the light can move through your entire body, bringing vitality and helping you translate your ideas into your reality.

To do so, take care of your body. Be sure to get plenty of hydration and rest. Spend time in nature. Use salt baths to cleanse your energy. Eat foods that strengthen and nourish you. Ground yourself by releasing emotional content if you are either swinging from one extreme to another or retreating to your head to analyze rather than express. You can ground emotional energy by writing in a journal or by creating art, poetry, music or dance to express your feelings. You can also ground emotional energy through physical exercise or being in nature.

Practice soothing and calming yourself so that you can return yourself to a contented, trusting and peaceful state of being. This can be done by talking to yourself in a gentle, loving, encouraging voice, reassuring yourself that everything is working out according to a higher plan and that you are very loved. Guided meditations and relaxations that help you feel connected, peaceful and loved will also be helpful.

Choose what works for you. You’ll know when you are grounded because you will feel very connected to your body, aware of your emotions and clear, energized and present, with a sense of well being. If you are not feeling that way. this oracle says that you can. Your energy and well being can improve, and you can feel good about who you are and how you choose to live your life. Grounding will help you (and help the Universe to help you, too).

I enjoy being present, in the here and now, with my body and my breath, receiving spiritual light and shining it through my heart into the world. I love my body and my senses, my soul and my heart. They are all avenues for my spirit to experience and express in this world for the greatest good. May all living beings feel helpful grounding through unconditional love, for the highest good. Through my own free will, so be it.
