Clearing the Pipes

Some time ago, I lived where there was a natural disaster. We didn’t have water for weeks, and when it returned, we had to flush the pipes.

We turned on our faucets and let the water run until it ran clear.

Initially the water coming out looked terrible! But I knew I had to wait, I had to leave the faucet on and trust that it would eventually run clear. 

Sometimes it’s the same way in our lives, energetically. We might start a new project or new relationship, maybe even a new way of thinking. And things start up going great, until a bump in road seems to slow things down.

We might wonder, what the hek happened?? Things were going so well. We might even have a belief that every time things go well, something strange and inconvenient happens.

I want you to know that you’ve done nothing wrong and that things are, in fact, working out in your favor.

It’s like those pipes that stayed unused for weeks. We might have energetic “pipes” that haven’t been able to run water for some time.

Water is your life force, your attention and intention.

Someone could absolutely love singing, they might have always dreamed of being a singer.

Within them is everything they need to be a successful, fulfilled singer. But they haven’t had the chance to sing, only to dream.

They created a beautiful, elaborate energetic system of piping where their life force can flow and erupt outward into song.

And still, for different reasons, they don’t sing.

Many years could go by with those pipes collecting rust and dust.

All of the times they said, “no, not yet.” The limiting beliefs that gathered over time, now lining the pipes with rust and grime.

When at last this singer is able to free themselves and begin to sing, they might encounter impediments on their path.

They might be angry or upset with the universe, or even blame themselves.

It might sound like, “I finally get myself together to live my dream and this is what happens?? Its not fair! Why do you hate me?? What did I do wrong?”

Etc.

Perhaps they become ill or lose their voice. A seemingly personal attack on their miraculous breakthrough!

The truth is, all is well. All is so well.

They can’t turn off the faucet now, this is when they need to persist forward.

Those pipes have been waiting for years to carry and stream that beautiful, singing energy.

The energy is pouring through, just like powerful water, bringing with it everything in its path.

Do not fear, do not fret. You’re on the right path, keep going. Sometimes you need to clear out the rust or build-up in unused pipes.

That can manifest as all kinds of things. Don’t take it personally, take it in stride. Let the water keep running.

Those icky manifestations will clear out soon enough, don’t look too deeply into them. Imagine you’re just flushing out the pipes.

Say, “Ok well, this must have been some old build-up in these pipes. I’ll allow it. I’m willing to let it get cleared out. It won’t take long.”

Don’t fight against the icky things that come up. They aren’t important, they are past limiting beliefs exiting out of your system.

In the meantime, take care of yourself. Stay as high as you can in your thoughts. Receive help if it’s offered from a loving place.

And most of all, stay in support of yourself and what you were doing. This bump in the road is only a bump. And your road is extraordinary, long, and winding.

Remember how it felt when you finally let those pipes carry water. That joy that came forward in the beginning of your new venture.

That is real and it is yours.

Say, “I’m right here. I love you. I’m still with you. Keep flowing, I won’t be deterred, and I won’t give up. This temporary discomfort is giving way to a beautiful, clear stream of joy.”

I have over 18 years of experience doing intuitive readings. I've done extensive research into metaphysics, the occult, and faith based religions. I regularly practice meditation and kirtan (devotional yoga). I acknowledge that our lives are made of the seen and the unseen and that Truth is a moving target. I can say only a few things with great conviction after all I have lived. One, life ebbs and flows and it is always up to you to come back into your light. Use every resource you can! Two, the source of all things is light and freedom. You are free to believe whatever you choose to believe, only you can convince or disprove your own ideas. Three, we are dynamic, enigmatic beings. Though society would like us to stay in certain boxes, the truth is we can't. I am so much more than a reader. I live my life with robust joy and great curiosity. Four, I have always been in touch with something that is beyond our conventional ideas of life. I always felt something beyond my five senses. There is a part of me that relishes in diving into the depths of existence. Into those lighter layers of perception. I like feeling where the flow of life is moving. And I truly enjoy doing it with others. Lastly, I am a lover at the core of my being. I love devotional practice. I love adoring the world and everything in it. I seek to shine my light wherever I go. Of course we experience hard times, I just make the absolute most out of all the other times.
