“The spiritual life does not remove us from the world but leads us deeper into it” -Henry J.M Nouwen
Spiritual Awakening comes in all forms and experiences. It means having a sense or awareness of the feelings of connectedness to a universal network of energy. This experience is sensory.
Our intellectual understanding comes afterwards from study, reflection and the transference of information. This is often referred to as downloading. When we are connected spiritually and receiving information through the spiritual super highway, it changes how we see the world.
Our Awakened Spiritual Journey begins when we acknowledge within ourselves that there is more to life than what we logically understand. Our experiences show us glimpses into another landscape.
Our response to these experiences can vary dramatically, but a larger number of us are embracing the ancient wisdoms of Spirituality. You may ask: “What are the physical sensations or signs that we are Awakening Spirituality?” Let’s start with the very common experience of overt occurrence of co-incidence. For instance, every time you look at the clock you see double or repeating digits. You increasingly see feathers, stones, objects, birds or animals at unexpected times and places. You are thinking of something or someone and they, or it, appears physically or in a message. You wander into a random shop and find just the thing you were looking for. Once might be coincidence, but repetition is a message.
One day, floating in a pool, I saw continuous cloud formations of a Phoenix. When I went home, I found a very important message waiting for me.
Likewise, you might hear, see or feel entities. These may be experienced as changes in atmospheric pressure, catching movement out of the corner of your eye, or seeing and hearing people/beings. You might have the feeling that people or beings are with you. These interactions can be a little more unnerving to the uninitiated and they can trigger fear. In me and I hope in you too, they spark a curiosity to continue and learn more.
Theses interactions are a little more earthbound in nature and we are working with spirits rather than working with energies. In my house, I often find things are moved. For instance, the tea tin is found in the pan cupboard. Keys are removed from my bag and found with the towels. This activity did lead to quite a few discussions about boundaries and appropriate behavior, plus some additional space cleansing!
Regardless of how you may respond to these interactions, I recommend that at this stage you take actions to make sure that you and your environment is clean.
A good cleansing ritual is a foundation awakening skill we all must master. Use white sage, clear quartz, selenite crystals, salt, singing bowls, tea tree or eucalyptus oil in a burner. They are all excellent energetic cleaners and easy to use. Cleansing activities will eliminate any negative energy or entities that are not there for your Highest Good. If you feel uncomfortable, you can spiritually & energetically clean your house and space because not everyone has your back on the spiritual super highway.

In my early days, I would often call in both of my Grandmothers to protect me. They were both passed and both formidably protective. Whichever friend or relative that you think will safeguard you, ask them to do so. Likewise, they will bring in whoever they know to help keep you safe. Please remember to ask permission and give thanks to whoever you call in.
Once the spirit world has your attention, is your curiosity peaked enough that you want to go the next step? If you are, what awaits you is a journey like no other. An awakening of your senses to dimensions of heightened awareness, subliminal connection, conscious awakening and Universal Consciousness.
The path you embark on will be one of personal growth, a shedding of several old, even comfortable skins. It’s the re-wiring of your mind to embrace new patterns of thought and action. As with all learning, it will take commitment. There may be moments of frustration and even grief as we leave behind what we have known and what has in the past, supported and served us well.
If you can embrace the spiritual path and venture on your unique soul’s journey, what awaits is a life of awakenings. A life of emotional and psychological well being that is internally referenced, but existing within a context of being freely externally supported, via a purely harmonious energetic network. You will have moments of pure Nirvana and a relationship with the world which has completely changed how you are and who you are.
Is that not worth the commitment to YOUR Spiritual Awakening?
