Politics on an energetic level...

Is it possible to talk about politics without talking about politics, candidates, parties, or policies? Let's see.....

How many of us were dumbfounded by the 2024 US election results? I voted for neither candidate (I am Canadian), but was surprised at the number of people who did not see this landslide coming. If you were shocked or dumbfounded, I urge you to take some time to self-examine your own sense of awareness. On an energetic/spiritual level, why were you not aligned with your inner knowing? Did you forget that your soul has access to all knowledge and all wisdom as you tune in to your intuition, your inner knowing/divine guidance? Yes, but life is busy and I don't have time to dive deep, so it is so much easier to tune into the TV mainstream to tell me what I should think and believe. Even still... does it resonate? or does it breed fear? Love/fear should be your gauge. Why were so many of us focused on external obvious disinformation and misinformation coming from our media feed, allowing other people (who we may believe are smarter or richer than us) tell us what we should think and believe, and then we missed what we could have known all along just by tuning in?

Two days before the election, I creeped over to a friend's FB profile to check out what she sees from her end, based on her algorithms as a mainstream news follower. I found it interesting that she had (what she believed to be) credible graphs from established pollsters showing the presidential race being neck and neck, potentially going either way with the flip of a coin. She had reposted mainstream news narratives of the rival candidate. She obviously believed in her mind what they told her. Needless to say, she was one of the many blindsided by the election results. Now the question for many is, where did I go wrong? How did I not see this coming? What can I learn going forward? This is a great opportunity for us all to examine ourselves now. Unfortunately, post election, much of mainstream media and others seem to be blaming the results on the covid trauma years, racism, lack of university education of many voters, disinformation, lack of voter intelligence, or other external sources. They are looking at everyone else except at themselves.

Throughout the campaign, there was controlled opposition on both sides that would often throw people off. In their confusion, friends, family, and readers would send me media posts or videos to view and discuss. I would not have to get very far into it, whether it was good or bad for each candidate, before I would get a feeling of lightness or heaviness (what resonates/what does not) and would have an inner knowing if the article/video was true or false information. There is a big difference between wanting to believe something based on ego emotion or bias vs having a calm inner knowing as to whether something was true or false. If I trust my gut and intuition instead of ego bias, it ends up right every time. However, I struggle with ego as much as the next guy, but I believe it helps when we at least have an awareness of it. Truth will never breed fear, but rather it sets us free, and gives us a sense of freedom and lightness. It is not the truth itself that hurts, but rather the crashing down of our illusions of what we thought was truth... that is the painful part.

What am I saying? Tune in. Trust yourself... what you feel in your gut/intuition, not your head knowledge or emotion. Don't rely on your double degrees from the best universities. They won't help you with what is coming. We are living in a time where so much evil and corruption will be exposed in the coming months/years about what has been going on for decades right under our noses... and there will be pushback, no doubt. If you were traumatized by the election results, gear up, because so much more is coming down the pipe. This will not be fun, but necessary in order for change and rebirth in the world to happen. Be open and be self-aware. Let what resonates be your guide (soul guidance), not fear (human ego). Whenever I feel fear rise up within me, I know I am on the wrong path. I have to then realign myself with my peace and calm. Let go of those you idolize or those you hold up in high esteem above yourself and learn to get to know the greater You. All life's greatest answers are within us. We have access to all power, all knowledge, and all wisdom. As King David said, My soul knows it well', understanding that his soul had access to more than just his human experience. Trust your gut, your intuition, what resonates.... not fear-based news, and you will be the strong one for your friends and family when chaos hits the fan. It is possible to have calm in the storm when we are aligned with our greater being. God wins. All will be well.
