Are you in the spiritual wilderness?
Oct 06, 2021Ohhhhkaaay… spiritual wilderness?
Rebecca…
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
Being in the spiritual wilderness, in my summation, means that you’re feeling lost, unmoored, helpless and possibly hopeless.
You know you need something, but you don’t know what that is.
You desperately want to get on your soul’s path, but you have no clue which way to go.
You know you need a teacher for whatever it is that you’re supposed to be doing, but you don’t even know where to begin.
You feel like a tiny boat floating in the infinite ocean with no sight of shore.
Or like a hiker walking stumbling through the woods at night without a compass or a flashlight.
There’s no clear path as far as you can see, and, frankly, you’re tired of trying to figure it out for yourself.
When you do try to go it alone, you wind up at dead ends or feeling like you’re walking in circles.
Ultimately you end up alone, stuck, wanting to go somewhere, but mired in place—alone in the wilderness of your own mind and heart.
The spiritual wilderness doesn’t have anything to do with your spirituality, per se.
You can be highly spiritual and still feel lost, disconnected, and uncertain of your next steps.
In the wilderness, you may be tapping into your lone wolf energy and trying to self-help-book your way out of confusion.
(It doesn’t work.)
Or, you may be turning to untrained people you know (family, friends, coworkers) but not only are they decidedly UN-helpful, but they’re actually making you feel worse for asking for the support or advice you need.
In essence, your vulnerable reach out for help backfires, and you end up feeling even more alone and uncertain.
I find that people end up in the spiritual wilderness when they’re on the cusp of a monumental change.
You’ve had a call to adventure—you know that there’s a life for you that matches on of your big life intentions (money, travel, creative expression, having kids, a loving partnership, etc.)—and you WANT to go there, but there are obstacles in the way.
Let me tell you a secret about the spiritual wilderness… come closer…
-- the only way out of the spiritual wilderness is with the help of a mentor.
If you’ve been waiting to figure it out on your own, love, you’re in for an even longer wait.
If you think it’s about timing, it’s not.
If you think it’s about money, it’s not.
In order to find your way out of the spiritual wilderness, you need a guide.
You will most likely need many guides on your journey, but a guide who helps get you out of the wilderness and onto your path is the FIRST one you need.
Think you might be in the spiritual wilderness in your life?
I want to invite you to a hour of free intuition-based coaching.
This is a free, no-catch, no-pitch group coaching call with me where I answer your questions and also tell you what’s coming through for you from your guides.
This isn’t prophecy work (I’m stepping away from that) instead it’s speaking the deep truth to you that you may know (deep down) but may have been ignoring for some time.
The call is 1 hour over zoom, next Tuesday, October 12th from 4pm PST to 5pm PST.
And please share this info with your friends and family — anyone who could use some direction out of the wilderness.
Questions? I’d love to answer them. Email me.
Otherwise, I’ll see you next Tuesday at 4pm PST.
Big hugs, Rebecca*
