What you call “home” at the moment may be feeling quite difficult for you, or you may be facing the idea that what you considered your home will no longer be a home for you. Maybe you are couch surfing, in a shelter, or even on the street. You are not alone.
Here in the US, our “houseless” population has been growing steadily for some time now. Rent is unaffordable everywhere here, and many are seeking alternatives. Having roommates or living with family is no longer frowned upon as much as it used to be, but it can be quite difficult for someone who thinks dependence on or help from another means they’ve failed.
This is your reminder that our obsession with hyper-independence was never healthy or practical, and it’s completely unnatural! It’s also a reminder that every storm must pass, and that includes your current difficulties.
The real message here is about learning that you are your home.
It’s about making the best of your situation, and possibly considering alternatives you thought were beneath you. You may very well find that you were mistaken about those alternatives. Not only are they not beneath you, they are often choices that are so much better than what we all think we’re supposed to be doing.
A great example of this is living in your vehicle. Of course, it comes with its own set of challenges, but it can often bring freedom and a more connected way of living. This is actually my big goal right now. Not because people on social media make it look cool, but because it just makes more sense financially, especially because I love to travel and want to do a lot more of it!
Temporary home feeling not so temporary?
Let yourself make your space as comfortable as you can. When we’re in these temporary spaces, we tend to treat them as temporary, and that just makes things more difficult. Hang your favorite painting, get yourself a little throw rug, and create a cozy little corner for yourself. Trust me, it will not make you lose your motivation to better your situation; it is much more likely to give you a boost that keeps you going!
Life is gonna life, so we must do what we can to find comfort and even a little joy while we’re experiencing the rough stuff.
What are you struggling with right now? What about this situation is out of your control? Is there something you can do regularly that may move the needle? What can you do to make it a little more tolerable for you?

Autumn's Difficulties & Magic: A Message From the Universe
This is a period of inspiration, learning, teaching, and collaboration. This is the dawn of a new day when, naked and vulnerable, you are no longer attached to what made you that way. You’ve learned, or are learning, that what made you that way was a part of your journey, not your identity.
