Is It Just Me?

This may seem like a bit of departure from what you're used to seeing from me (though you haven't seen anything from me in quite some time) and yet. I feel compelled to talk about it, so here goes.

Something is up in the Universe.  Something is most definitely up! 

As I write this, I cannot think of single person that I have regular contact with in both my personal and professional life who isn't experiencing some sort of existential event. And I'm wondering if others are noticing it too.  Here are a few examples of what I mean:

• There's the client who, until 2 years ago, was the  picture of physical, emotional and spiritual health and is being plagued by one physical challenge after another. 

• Another who is experiencing uncharacteristic and relentless ambivalence around implementing the really great program she's spent more than a year painstakingly developing.

• Then there are the 2 folks who seem to be sharing a challenge: each held executive positions before going into business for themselves and both are facing financial crisis because of their inability to dismount the debilitating roller coaster of self-doubt - despite cognitive recognition of their abilities and the stellar results they've had with the clients they've "practiced" on.

• Can't forget the friend who holds a prestigious position with one of the most stable Fortune 500s - a recipient of numerous outstanding performance awards -  who is considering ditching the career and industry altogether  because of a confidence-crushing perceived failure.

• Then there's my personal bout of epic and nearly comical technological challenges in the process of launching my most recent venture, MyHolisticVillage. 

There's more but I'm sure you've got the picture.

The common denominator for these people and their scenarios is that none of this is "typical" for any of them!  These are not folks whose lives are furnished with "victim" seats. All of them are articulate, personally powerful, energetically aware, positive thinking humans.  THAT is what makes me say that something is most definitely up!

I'm not sure what it is but I have a hunch it has something to do with the Mayan Calendar and predictions about 2012 being the end of the world.  Not in some Hollywood-apocalyptic kind of way, more like an energetic-end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it kind of way.  Truthfully, I'm not even all that interested in what the issue is.  I just want to know if I'm the only one seeing it!

Help me out here. Please  let me know if it's not just me?  Are things like this going on around you too - in your life or with people you know?   Drop me an email if you'd rather not post a comment but either way, wouldn't it be nice to know neither of us is alone on the SS What The Bleep!

There is definitely something in the water - you are not alone!!! I have been going through some business and personal challenges this year and know so many people going through some major rough spots and big life events of their own. You are not alone on the SS What The Bleep! Thinking of you Lisa!

Thanks for the validation, Dee. I've received several private messages confirming the same thing going on for others as well. Phew!

One woman, Shelly Riutta, is holding a telesummit dedicated to dealing with it! Here's a link if you're interested. http://bit.ly/kXq8Yu

I'm experiencing the opposite: after 6 years of trying to find my footing and bouncing around from niche to niche, and working through mountains of self-doubt, I'm ready to rock-n-roll, Baby!

My focus has sharpened dramatically, my motivation is climbing into the stratosphere and I"m relaxing into what I want to create rather than forcing it or trying to "do it" with 80 hour work weeks.

I feel free like the shackles I've worn for decades are finally gone or like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis.

What I have noticed is huge energy gyrations that are taking people to startlingly new places. The uncomfortableness is sometime interpreted as bad and sometimes as good but roller coaster none the less.

Thanks for bringing it up and talking about it.

Thanks for sharing the post-roller coaster ride perspective and congratulations, Marena!

I agree that the tumult is neither good nor bad, it just is.

I think it's one way individuals are experiencing and resonating with the Universal shifts in energy that are underway.

For those who are still riding, keep those energetic seat belts fastened!

You are right; the energetic shifts are bringing up all the places each and every one of us needs to release or heal. Sounds easy and it is challenging. However, it is our spiritual destiny and evolution.

Even as I move through these intense shifts, I know we are coal hardened into diamonds. Now it is time to see our diamond self and release all the rest.

Thanks for the coal to diamond image, Tara. Such a nice visual!
