Lesson 272: Burning Questions

I feel like today’s lesson is a repeat of what I’ve mentioned in previous lessons. When we have those burning questions and no answer, sometimes we need to just walk away and do another activity before we gain the clarity we need. Sometimes going for a walk to clear your head will allow the clutter to clear in your mind in order for the answer to come. If you ask the Universe before you sleep to give you answers in your dreams and allow you to remember them in the morning, that’s another method of gaining some answers. Maybe you might take a hot shower or bath, to relax your body which in turn relaxes the mind before an answer pops up. Whatever the method, sometimes we just got to distract ourselves for a moment to gain an answer. I personally meditate to gain some more clarity. The challenges I’ve been having during the week have been answered through advice of friends as well as seeking answer from my guides in spirit. In the lesson, it’s mentioned that to gain a clear answer, ensure your question is clear. I think I try to be specific as possible because I know in my witchcraft, if you’re unclear in what you want, you may not necessarily get back what you seek. The more specific you can be, the more the answer is precise. I believe this to be true, does this work the same for you?

Day 272 - A Year of Spiritual Awakening - It is Hard to Understand...

Lesson 272: It is Hard to Understand...

…everything in human existence all at once. It’s not possible for the brain to grasp everything whether it is all the simple things or complex concepts. We can’t grasp it all at once especially the sacred and the mundane. Today we are to think about a mundane thing in our lives and make it sacred and also do one thing that is sacred whilst doing something mundane.

I kind of mix up my mundane and sacred more than I realise. It’s not that I mean to, it’s just that it happens that way. My mundane activity was to go for a walk along the main river of Melbourne. I didn’t know where I was going but I just walked to get some exercise in. Whilst I was doing this activity, I stopped to appreciate nature and the animals. I was praying that one day the river would be clean and that the ducks would have better waters to live in. This was my sacred mixed in with a very mundane task.

On the other hand, I was doing sacred work with friends that night which involved tarot and oracle readings. We ate Mcdonald’s (I only ate chips as I’m vegetarian) and ate chocolate. We also talked shit whilst doing what I normally would consider my sacred work.

I unintentionally did these activities this day before knowing the lesson. I think I do this a lot. I sometimes put up my witches shield as I’m walking to work. I meditate whilst the noise at work is going around. I meditate whilst I am in the shower. I also chant whilst in the shower too. I just think it’s normal to not over think and just do my spiritual work during mundane tasks.
