Before you can follow your star, you want to know where your star is.

Before you can reveal to yourself who you are, you have to know who you are.

In life, you strive to find the star you swing on. No matter how many moons you have lived on Earth, you are trying to find out this answer.

You know all you are not. You are good at that. Too often you don’t know who you are or what you really like nor do you begin to know what you are capable of.

It is as though you were in summer theater. You put on a costume and wear a hat. You play a part, and yet the part you play is hollow.

You put that costume and hat aside, and next summer you put on another costume and hat and act in another play, and all the while you wonder where your star is to wish upon.

All year and your whole life, you have wondered when you will find the ship that is yours to sail, and, you wonder, when you see it, how will you know it’s yours?

It has been said that you find yourself by losing yourself. Lose your search for identity and belonging, and you may well discover your star as you are not looking or looking so hard.

We’re familiar with traditional zodiac signs like Cancer and Virgo and Aries, but in true Zodiac form, there is a 13th sign.

Ophiuchus

According to mythology, Ophiuchus is identified with the great healer Asclepius, the son of Apollo, who could revive the dead. Hades convinced Zeus to kill Asclepius with a lightning bolt when he realized his true powers, and he was placed in the night sky as a constellation after his demise. Constellation Ophiuchus has been mapped since ancient times. It’s better known as Serpentarius, the holder of the serpent. Astrologers haven’t yet included Ophiuchus in the wheel of signs because the sun only rests in that constellation for 19 days. As far as they were concerned, the sun proceeded from Scorpius to Sagittarius and that was that.

But not so apparently.

HJ: Flow and effortlessness is a result of choosing the path of least resistance.  That doesn’t mean choosing an easy path, per se, but to choose a path that has the least internal FEELING of resistance.  This is your unique path of flow.  Follow the feeling and it will lead you to great places.

A Brief Guide to Effortless Action

By Manal Ghosain | One With Now

Can you remember a time in your life when you got lost in what you were doing? You lost track of time, had no sense of where you were, you were fully immersed in the experience.

When you were done, you felt exhilarated, yet calm. You finished what you were doing without struggle. You didn’t have to force yourself to focus, or to stay in one place. You didn’t even think about it. You were in the zone. It just happened.

Dear Ones, what advice would you want the world’s youth to take to heart? Would you want them to love, or to fear love? Would you want them to unify, or separate? Would you want to follow their passions or sacrifice and live a life of drudgery? Would you want them to live a life full of joy or one of denying self? Would you want them to embrace freedom and self expression or constrain and control them? Would you want to model to them the beauty of growth and expansion or the density of fear, doubt and stagnation?

What we are trying to impress upon you is that you are the most powerful teachers by example. You cannot expect evolution to occur without walking your talk. Love yourselves, and your next generations enough to blaze the trail for them, to demonstrate new ways, to create new paradigms, to instill empowering belief systems.

Do you see the power of this? The massive shift that will occur when your children are encouraged to honour themselves and have little to no conditioning to overcome? The new children flooding your planet right now are so highly evolved and so very sensitive. Create the comfort they need by honouring their beingness, as well as your own.

This is the power you all have during these amazing times. The changes start within each and every one of you and spread from there. That is the heart of the revolution of love and empowerment you are anchoring right now for your humanity. ~Archangel Gabriel
