Planning & Patience – Monday Oracle 28 October 2019

“When you do the things in the present that you can see, you are shaping the future that you are yet to see.”

~ Idowu Koyenikan

Hello, Lovelies!

October is a month for developing clear future vision and for believing in yourself and your dreams. You’ll be able to build on what you have already decided or created for yourself this year, aided by a deep knowing and intuition. Signs and messages are all around you, so trust your intuition! Keep October’s energy in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card DEATH ADDER brings us.

The Week Ahead

DEATH ADDER once gave me a very strong personal message. A Death Adder bit me on the foot when I was living on Fraser Island, many years ago. It was New Year’s Eve, and I had taken the rubbish out to the bin beside our bush cottage. The Death Adder was lying hidden in the leaf litter by the bin, waiting for a tasty bush rat or other critter to come along. I gave him a fright and so he bit me and I had to be medi-vacced off the Island, after which I spent four days in hospital.

Thanks to the Death Adder it was not exactly the New Year’s celebration I’d planned. But those four days in hospital helped me get the quiet time I needed to really think about my life, to plan, and to get my strategies together for the year ahead. And in that year ahead? Everything changed. That was the year I moved to the Kimberley and met my Aboriginal Aunties. Elders will tell you that the Death Adder comes to share his story with you when you are ready to change yours.

Death Adders are an Australian Snake, with a short squat body and a triangular head. They are slow moving, and so the only way they can catch their prey is to study the habitual movements of other animals, plan their attack, lie patiently in wait and then strike when opportunity arises.

Death Adders might be slow, but they are patient and clever. This week DEATH ADDER‘s message to you to is to study what it is you want to do with your life, be strategic in creating a plan, hold true to your vision, and remember to have patience.

DEATH ADDER wants you to understand that, very often, the thing you want can take time. That’s okay. The most important thing is to think carefully, and create a strong plan, and then patiently work that plan. Patience brings rewards. So be strategic and don’t give up.

This isn’t a time to race ahead , or for quick results, but it’s a wonderful time to plan for longer-term goals and to commit to results which might be slow to achieve. DEATH ADDER brings a message that there can be great power in going slowly and not giving up. Consistent small steps and patience can change your life, so don’t worry about the speed of your progress, just be committed to your plan and then trust in positive outcomes.

This week, working slowly and consistently, and with good planning, you’ll get much more achieved than you ever thought possible. Being slow, strategic and methodic will create real and tangible progress.

Your intuition will be on high alert too, so trust your own gut instincts over experts and gurus.

DEATH ADDER also has a special message for those who are ready. Change your story, even if it’s just the one you are telling yourself in your head, and it will change your life. Are you ready to step into a bigger, wiser and more open version of yourself?

Supportive crystals this week?

Labradorite is a stone for deepening mystical connection, intuition and soul wisdom. It brings understanding and helps you to think deeply, boosting intellectual capacity. Chrysocolla helps you to release negative energy and old patterns, bringing love, light and healing into your world. It is a gently positive and reassuring stone that promotes self care.   Smoky Quartz opens you to greater possibilities and a larger vision for yourself and your dreams.  Sodalite (pictured) will help you express your personal truth and anchor your creative vision with thoughts, words and actions.   

Helpful Essential Oils

Oils that help us to slow down, focus and which support optimism are what’s needed this week.

My choice for oils that will support focus, clarity, planning and patience this are Peppermint, Rosemary, Lime and Lemon. Choose one or all of them for your diffuser – they work beautifully together.

For relaxing and lifting your mood and enhancing intuition try any of these oils on their own or in combination – Wild Orange, Lavender, Geranium,  Frankincense, Cinnamon Bark.

I’m passionate about essential oils and their capacity to support our wellness journey and our spiritual and emotional wellbeing. If you’d like to know more or want to source the oils I recommend and trust visit this site or contact me at channelnc@gmail.com

Stay tuned this week as I share more tips here on the blog about how to focus, plan and strategise from a place of intuitive wisdom, and how to find that bigger picture for yourself.
