Sometimes All You Need is a Break in the Pattern

Happy Tuesday! 

Before we dive into this week’s offering…I’d like to check in. 

How are you feeling post eclipse and 11:11 vibes? Did you notice anything coming up or weird dreams?

<We had an amazing turnout for the 11:11 Activation Night and the connection, downloads and energy were super powerful! We are still in the 11:11 energy corridor for about 24-48 more hours-if you’ve been wanting to get more clarity, you can still get the 11:11 Activation Night messages and Meditation journey, along with the Deep Journaling and Ritual ideas that you can use for any New or Full Moon. Go here (scroll down once you click and you can purchase Part 1-recording).>

This week’s question from the community: 

Q: I really want to start dating again, but every time I get to the point of possibly having a date, I come up with all kinds of excuses why this guy isn’t up to par and just sabotage it before it begins. I feel so tired after work and I don’t want to engage in a date so I default to watching TV and cancelling. I know it’s not getting me closer to being in a relationship but I can’t seem to stop this. What is wrong with me? What can I do to stop getting in my own way? Help! 

A: Thank you for reaching out! This is a very common scenario, and there are a few layers to unpack here. But the first thing I’ll say is there is nothing wrong with you. When I read the energy behind your question, the word ‘tired’ pops out. When we are tired (mentally, physically, emotionally, or spiritually), anything that our subconscious perceives is going to require MORE energy can be seen as a threat. An energy depletion. So it’s natural that if you are tired, having to be “on” with someone you aren’t comfortable with seems unnecessary. It’s self-protection but at the core of your question may be a combination of:

  1. Energetic Management: 
    • Find out what small tweaks you may be willing to make to your schedule so that you are energised by what you’re doing vs depleting at the end of the day. This will make it easier to have the bandwidth to actually discern whether a particular date is in fact your intuition telling you, Don’t bother. Or…just a not today because I’m exhausted but I’d meet this guy for a date tomorrow-kinda scenario. 
  2. Let Someone Else Play Bad Cop: 
    • To break the pattern requires doing different things. If it helps, have a friend on call the day you know you have a date. You can instruct them to call or text you before to remind you to check in with yourself and to get out of your house in service to your bigger why-which is to be in a relationship! Even if it turns out that you aren’t attracted to the guy or vice versa, you never know who that person knows and they may introduce you to your future husband. But you’ll never know if you don’t leave the couch. 

The more you can call back your energy and re-assess what is actually draining you, and the more open you are to receiving support, the easier it will be to silence that self-protective, well meaning saboteur and get out there to meet your Mr. Right. 

Q: If you’re reading this and you’ve been through something similar, what have you found helped you? What advice would you give the woman above? Share your comments on the blog and as always, know that you are beautiful, worthy and deserving of amazing love NOW! 

Have a great week!

The Old Adage Really is True (Dating Advice)

Happy Aries Full Moon week!

The airwaves are powerful. 

Communications can be fiery, direct and full of passion. 

You may find you get a burst of energy from out of nowhere…or feel like you want to punch a wall.

It’s a great week to shore up your inner courage, channel your bold, bad-ass alter ego, and behave in ways that make you feel proud and may even shock you.

Today, I am answering a dating question about mixed signals:

“Diana, I’ve bee on 4 dates with this guy. All was going well (I thought) and we even talked casually about the next date. It’s been over a week and I don’t know where it’s going. I’ve been texting him and he does respond to me – and they are sweet, but he has yet to book the next date or initiate a text or conversation. I’m trying to stay in my ‘feminine’ but I feel so frustrated. What am I missing?”

A: Ah, yes the mystery of the great post-4th date. Often times in the first few dates, men (and women) are on their best behaviour and are often presenting their best sides. But by the4th or 5th dates, generally speaking, true colours may start to emerge and people’s natural way of being becomes more apparent. 

So, in the spirit of being bold and direct with the Aries Full Moon, it boils down to the old adage “Actions speak louder than words.” Yup-if you have not received a message from this man and he’s not trying to book the next date and nail dow a time with you, he’s either a). primarily a feminine-energy centred man (in which case, he will happily respond to your texts ad initiated conversations and invitations) or b). it’s simply not a priority for him.

If you are a feminine-energy centred woman naturally, then it may feel a bit weird to always be initiating conversation. If imitating feels easy and natural and you are more comfortable in your masculine energy, then you can be cold and ask this guy out to the farmers market! But if not…then giving him space t have to make a move is key. And if he doesn’t…well, then take that as a clear sign through in-action that the is not interested and move on goddess!

Q: Have you had an experience where the communication/attention wanes after the first few dates? What happened and how did you navigate that? Share with us below!

Is Ego bad? (Q+A time!)

Happy Tuesday! 

How was your Equinox?

Thank you so much to everyone who signed up for the Autumn Healing Meditation!

If you’d lie to get a copy of the recording to listen to and gain the energy benefits, you can go here and we will send it to you!

Today, I’m answering a question from our Goddess community.

Q: “Diana, I’ve been really working on my spiritual practice and trying to not take things personally in relationships. It’s not easy! One thing I wondered about – Ego bad? Where is the line between having a healthy Ego and an unhealthy one?

I love this question! Ego gets a really bad rap but really it has a very important purpose in our Lives!

Understanding this purpose can help you in all relationships.

Let the Universe Help You

Happy Tuesday! 

The other day I was driving to see a friend and I was strongly called to look over to my right.

A sign, literal sign for some business and do you know what it said? 

“All things possible.”

I chuckled because I’d been having a strange week with a lot of unexpected twists and turns. 

I teach this stuff, but I’m not immune to having days where I have trouble trusting that I’m being supported.

So that sign was very timely.

It helped me get into a more expansive mindset beyond the realm of the “problems” that presented themselves. 

So often we get caught up in the mind, in fear or anxiety about the future, that we forget we can slow down, ask for a sign, and relax. 

This is the Feminine Flow State-it’s not passivity-more, just powerfully deciding to receive signals of what our Deepest Truth is from the outside world. 

One wa to get into this Flow State is to start your morning quietly.

Do something that takes you out to the realm of the linear, production-mode into the liminal, Yin state.

So you can actually hear yourself and also make loving, clear requests for the Universe to co-create and support you.

One thing I love doing is making morning tea. 

I love the sensation of boiling a post of hot water, selecting my tea or sometimes just adding lemon, lighting a candle and journaling. 

Some days, not much comes out.

It feels like dribble.

Other days, I channel content for an entire course! (Hello-Embody!)

And it’s my time to get still and ask, “Spirit, here’s what I’m feeling/knowing/contemplating. Can you give me a clear sign to let me know I’m on the right track or help me course-correct please?”

So this week, especially since we are still in Mercury Retrograde, I invite you to switch up your usual morning M.O. and do one thing to tune into yourself.

Make a request from the Universe to send you a sign.

And give yourself permission to stay receptive and trust that if it’s truly a Sign, you’ll know. You won’t miss it.

Q: Are you game? If so, hit reply and say YES!

Enjoy your week and sending you tons of blessings!

Love, 

Diana

A Simple Shift Can Open Up Your World

Happy Tuesday!

Did you ge a chance to see the gorgeous full moon this weekend? 

It was hauntingly beautiful and here in AZ we had almost every type of weather you can imagine over 48 hours.

Blinding, hot sun.

Monsoon rains and humidity to follow.

And last night, there was the whole thunder and lighting and wind shebang.

It was like the Earth was rolling through all her emotions!

Right now, there may be rumbles happening in your life too. In your relationships.

But any shake-ups are way-ups.

Where can you go about it differently? 

How can you see a new perspective? 

Who do you want to be and how can you embody that more? 

One question you an ask yourself when something confusing, weird or just plain out of nowhere comes into your orbit is… “What COULD this mean?”

This is a very simple tweak in language.

Most of us are taught to ask, “What DOES this mean?”

But when you change it to could, you tap into curiosity. Possibility. Non-linear thinking. 

New insides could resent themselves with could.

So this week, let’s keep it simple. 

Will you play with this question? 

What could he have meant by that text? 

What could I do if this situation? 

What could…

Wishing you a wonderful week! And if you’d like to step into more joyfully receiving, join me for EMBODY: 21 Days to Expand Your Capacity To Receive!
