July 2025 - Personal Truth Rising

It is a hobby of mine to follow astrology. Did you know as we approach the last days of July, that the astrological alignment set us up to speak, and, hear the personal truth about our relationships all through the month.

For me, it was shocking to learn a person that joined our family through marriage, whom I thought we were on good terms, was actually annoyed with me but keeping it silent. My loving, caring feelings towards this person was obviously not reciprocated. Not sure why she feels this way and it really is not my concern. My concern is me and how I deal with it.

This brought on feelings of hurt, embarrassment and kicking myself for being stupid all these years. It was time to challenge myself, dig deep within, heal and set some boundaries. Once the process was complete I simply moved forward knowingly putting that person at arms length from now on. Holding onto resentment does not work, anger does not work, the only process that works is self healing.

As I have aged, I have worked hard at healing from the knock downs that life throws at us (we all go through this). The more I was knocked down, the more I strived for healing, peace and love. Living my life has been a goal of portraying compassion, kindness and love to family, friends and co-workers. What has definitely come to light through the past 3 decades, not many individuals can see your true self, your hard earned love and compassion for all.

People can only judge another through their belief system and who they are. When someone has judged you and possibly shocks you (because that was never your intention) the story is about them, not you. Does this make sense? Therefore, IF you are being judged for something you never intended, or would never think of doing, it is not about you, it is about the other person and their shadows.

What can one do to release the shock, sorrow and ill feelings of realizing you are being looked upon as as someone you are not? You could begin with communication, but in some cases it might be best to concentrate on healing yourself. You cannot, and will not change the beliefs of other people. Do you really want to? Life is short and in my world, it's best to do the internal work, raise my own personal frequency (vibration) and move along towards my own life dream. No one, and I mean no one, is going to stop what I am creating for myself in this lifetime.

The first place to start is to examine IF any part of the judgement is true. This is imperative for your healing! For me, I would never intentionally do or say something intentionally containing ill will. However, we are all human and sometimes it happens by accident. Just as no one else is privy to your internal thoughts and beliefs, we are not capable of understanding others internal thoughts and beliefs. We are all unique individuals that have been groomed by life experiences. We all have a history that has created life triggers for us and it is quite possible we are not aware until we take the time to analyze ourselves...its called healing. No one is perfect, we all have dark sides. It's the Ying and Yang of life!

Added to this equation, are vibrational frequencies. I have noticed the more I raise my frequency, the more I meet like minded people. The opposite is true, once you start raising your vibration many people in your life will be left behind somehow because they no longer resonate with your frequency. It upsets them, they don't know why and you are the one to blame if they are not on a healing journey themselves.

Personally, I have reached a time in my life where I prefer to work on my self, my inner critic, and my inner child to rise again into the person my intentions have created. When I wake in the morning, I prefer to look in the mirror and smile knowing full well, in my heart, that I am a kind, caring, loving, patient individual that needs only to look within during outside judgements.

Now living through my senior years, I can honestly say I have closed the doors on many people - family, friends and co-workers because they did not resonate with who I am. The old saying, "Birds of a feather, flock together" is a very true statement.

In fact, I have created so many new beginnings in my life, at times I have felt like a gypsy. However, sitting here in my temporary rental home writing this specific blog, I am manifesting my next new journey, my final destination, a forever home until I leave this Earth. My gypsy days of moving all over Canada are done!

When life knocks you down, stay down for a short period of time IF you must. Then find the strength, day by day, to rise again and create the life you truly want. It just might mean walking away from what no longer serves you.
