New Beginnings, New Energy: A Message From the Universe, 2 Queen of the Moon Oracle cards and crystals on a starry blue background

Today’s Message From the Universe is all about new beginnings, the period of difficulty that precedes and accompanies them, and a reminder of how important it is to manage your energy and mindset.

What’s Blossoming?

OK, it’s not blossoming yet. You’re working on it now, planting seeds, if you will. I’m feeling like you’ll start to see some happy little sprouts around the beginning of the year and some fat blossoms a few months later. Time is relative to your situation, of course.

This might possibly be a refreshing or restructuring of established routines, a re-thinking of your business approach, a decision to change how you show up in your relationships, or even a complete change of identity. However, this energy shows up for you; it’s got big glow-up written all over it!

If you’re catching this around the time of publishing, there’s a new moon in a couple of days that will be an excellent opportunity for you to put a little extra oomph into this creation or re-creation.

Overwhelm and Exhaustion

Of course, your brain may be running a million miles a minute on all the changes that need to happen, all the things you want to create, or things you’d like to try. Maybe there are difficult decisions to make or even easy decisions that just feel way more difficult than you think they should be.

Even the simplest of things are hard when energy is low. There is a lot happening in your brain and behind the scenes that’s using up more energy than you think. Selecting your priority tasks and getting them done early is going to be extremely helpful now, as you may find yourself running out of energy a lot earlier than normal.

This energy is ripe for big-time burnout, so please listen to your body as much as you are able. It doesn’t matter why you’re so tired, or wired, or both. What matters is that you do what you can to honor your needs and take proper care of yourself.

No, you can’t always just stop when your body or mind wants you to, but I know for a fact you can prioritize your wellbeing more than you do – and so do you!

Doubt and Uncertainty

Can this work? Of course it can, if you commit to it. What happens if you don’t like it? Well, you’re allowed to change your mind. Life is short, but it is also long; you will change and pivot many times. Are you good enough? Of course you are!

Even if your skills are not quite there, your dedication, time, and practice will make them so – just like everyone who ever became great at anything! Even if it doesn’t seem to be quite right for you, it will likely lead you to a path that is.

Feeling like a big fat fraud? Imposter syndrome, anyone? I’ve got news for you…we’re all just winging it! The more you know about anything, the more you realize how little you really know anything at all. We are all just figuring it out as we go along and doing our best to help each other while we’re at it.

Doubt and uncertainty are a natural part of life, especially when anything new looms on the horizon. Let those voices have their say, as they can help you prepare for possible challenges, just don’t let them run the show.

Work on letting the voices of hope, inspiration, and excitement become louder than the voices of fear and doubt. Seek them out on purpose, then build on them and dwell within them as often as possible! Let them be both your armor on difficult days as well as a fuel for your manifestations!
