We hear the word compassion all the time.  In fact, it is becoming kind of a buzzword in the spiritual community. 

What does it really mean? What is it about?

Compassion comes in a flow when we allow ourselves to be who we are through anchoring ourselves into our own experiences and looking with higher vision and heart at what is happening in a situation or event allowing us to be moved by the suffering we see. And, it is experienced by choice.  Yes.  We choose it.

Compassion is both an experience and an action. When we are moved emotionally by something we can also be called into action around it.  This is commonly known as engaging in an “act of compassion”.

What are some emotional qualities of compassion and how do we experience them? This is what it may look like.

Compassion for a person/persons who are in pain; emotional, behavioral, or spiritual, happens when you have the:

• Ability to feel love for them

• Ability to experience patience for them

• Ability to choose kindness in the situation

• Ability to extend open arms

• Ability to tap into your Divine wisdom in the situation

• Ability to step into action that is helpful but not rescuing

Acts of compassion can look like:

• Self-care

• Accessing healing services

• Practicing self-love

• Allowing grace

• Empowered choices

Compassion is needed for both ourselves and others.  And, it is an essential part of our ascension process.

When we are on a journey of soul expansion, we go through a lot! We are diving into creating greater clarity around our life experiences. The work we have been doing has begun to clear the brush from the path. Our eyes might be opened more to our ability to transcend. We might be navigating new awareness…and so, it’s possible, we may be in the “feels.” Doing the “work” can feel confronting and bring a range of emotions. 

So, when we begin this journey it is JUST AS IMPORTANT to create awareness and process for having compassion for yourself as it is to practice doing the work.

What is the first step in moving into compassionate practice? 

NEUTRALITY.

Can we play with the possibility that everything has the right to exist and understand that our perspective is just one? This is needed for us to access the choice point of connection into compassion.  If we can’t see another person as equal in their right to express, whether it is their choices, celebrations or their pain, we can not step further into compassion for them.

THIS is why it is such a vital step in our ascension process. Compassion indicates connection.

When we are truly compassionate in our connection and action, we have lifted into a higher level of consciousness.  This is ascension.

Three Things to Know in This Month’s Energy

1. We start April with a bang and with the new moon in Aries on 4/1. This is a master number day. Set your intentions with INTENTION. This is a profoundly powerful manifestation period with the moon in this sign. It is not a time for intention with lack of clarity and remember that the Universe is literal. You are fueled with confidence in what you are doing and who you are. It is time to play your hand and stand firmly in what is in your alignment and set boundaries for what is not. The full moon on 4/16 will anchor acceptance energy that has been birthing and we have been bathing in the showers of light codes through solar activity around this. The full moon ignites our hearts. Can we be peace? This big energy requires us to ground.

2. Divine Relationships will be a focus for this month of angels (4 represent angels). Heavily supported by Aries energy and the incoming eclipse season, you will see what is ready to come to closure and be released soon. As you are firmer in going your own way, challenges in intimate relationships may come forward. Remember, love and forgive them for they know not what they do. The relationship focus will bring forward another layer of continued look at Victim Consciousness.  Are you in a cycle of abuse, victim, rescue? Watch for hesitancy, doubt and fear when being pushed to express your needs, truth or alignment.  Call on the angels for support and hand over any struggles to the Divine. It is time to look at simplifying all areas of your life.  If it does not align, it is time to temporarily step away. Trust the process, let yourself simmer in it and allow transformation to flow. You don’t create the transformation. You allow it. Watch for where you sabotage.

3. You are your own holy grail. Go within for your guidance. Stay focused on your personal path. Trust your intuitive guidance. This is a spiritual quest. Things need to shift in order to bring you the massive blessings awaiting you. It is time to stop searching outside of yourself. YOU are your guide. YOU are the answer. Your light expands in your sovereignty and space of empowered compassion and collectively we rise in harmony this way. You are that important. PEACE is here if you choose to be it when asked to fully accept others perceptions and choices as their right. It is time for us all to be done with playing small. BE fully YOU and serve from your light in the awareness that it is just the right thing to do! Create from this space. Abundance is here for you. We must connect to one another in our unique vibrations to activate the light codes that are here for us. Are we ready?
