Monthly Outlook - August

August is for journeys. August is for beginnings. August is for confidence.

It is time to prepare for your journey this month. This is a journey you perhaps have long desired, but have felt unready to begin. Perhaps your journey is a physical one, or maybe it is a mental journey. On the outside, it may be straightforward: a change in relationship, or relocation. Or it may be more subtle: a commitment to self-growth, or spirituality. Your journey is personal, and only you can walk this path. It is always helpful to have support along the way, but no one can walk this path for you. It is your own.

No matter your journey's outward appearance, it will transform you, and have great life-changing and positive effects on you. There will, of course, be challenges along the way. You may experience situations that want to stifle your growth, but do no waver, even if you shake. Do not allow yourself to crumble no matter the weight of these situations. Take a moment to regain balance and clarity. Do not let these conflicting situations keep you from starting your journey. You are ready to begin. You need this.

Remove those thoughts that you may need more time, more growth; that you just aren't up for the challenge. You are. Do not allow your self-esteem to slip in these ways. Do not allow these thoughts to become so deeply ingrained in your identity that you cannot separate them from your true self. The self of confidence and pride and power. Wear this confidence like armor against negative egoist thoughts. Your confidence is your compass to finding your truth and divine place in this universe.

Allow yourself to be open to the future of your journey. Let it flow through you. Let it mould and shape you into new divinity. You are growing and evolving into your best self. No matter the outcome, you will become the being you are meant to be, in the moment you are meant to be in. Allow yourself to become. Embrace change in it's exciting unfamiliarity. Be excited. Rejoice in the self-focused nature of your journey. Your journey is for you. You are special. You are the guest of honor.

Push procrastination away and allow yourself to evolve into this new, shining star. Now is the time. Not tomorrow. Not in a free moment. Not in a few minutes. Not after more development. Right now. In this very moment. You are ready. Take your first step. "I have done the work. I am beginning now. I am ready. This is my time. My journey." With this growing conviction, thrust yourself forward.

This month, you will learn to wear your confidence every day, and every day, your own power shall grow. This month you will know, without question, that you are ready for this journey. No matter what may lay ahead, you are prepared. You have the strength. You have the determination. You have the power and the knowledge. Now is the time to dance and grow into the divine being; the shining star. Now is the time to embark on your journey.
