An Upgrade in Awareness.

In my last two posts, I mentioned the value of not knowing.  I've been playing with that one a lot in the last few weeks.  And while I believe the essence of it is correct, that knowing (specifically, the knowing of the mind, not the awareness of the Self...) places limits on possibility, the phrasing has been itching for an upgrade.  Mostly because describing what something isn't is actually not describing it at all.

So, I've been exploring other options.  How do I say what I'm doing, instead of what I'm not doing?  If I'm practicing being receptive, staying out of the way, co-creating with the Universe instead of trying to do it alone- what is that?  I didn't have an answer, aside from the sentence above.  I sought something succinct.

Then, in the wave of joyful little gifts that came my way at the beginning of February, I got some help.  I signed up for a series of webinars that focus on manifestation and clearing resistance.  And I found Rikka Zimmerman.  She delights me!  She has great clarity and great compassion.

She talks about the principles of Access Consciousness.  And it resonates with all of the truths that have been emerging from within me, only it's more developed and more refined from years of sharing and feedback.  One such principle is that conclusions close the door to possibility and questions make room.  Sound familiar?  It sure did to me!

She offers the idea of being in the question.  What if the universe has infinite resources and awareness?  What if the Universe is infinite resources and awareness?  That's the best ally I can imagine!  And what if the only thing between me and my most delightful outcomes is, well, me?

It's a nine year for me.  (Not changing topics, just adding a thread...)  Nine is all about finishing things, letting go and making room for the next cycle.  I'm letting go of whatever doesn't work for me.  I'm making room for the Universe to be as generous to me as I have been with everyone but myself.  Especially, I'm letting go of putting myself last.  I'm the only one I will spend the entire rest of my life with...  Right?

And to go where I'm going, which is a life that totally delights and nourishes me, I'm going to be in the question.  I wonder what will happen?
