There are periods in our life which change us, where we are no longer the person we used to be. Often these times can be challenging and test our strength.
In my experience, there will usually be an outer planetary transit happening that can give a lot of clues to what is going on and what can be done to not just ease the intensity, but navigate it in a way that you don’t get stuck in repeating patterns.
Sacred Timings/Transits/Midlife Transformation
Outer symptoms - what am I experiencing?
Often change or impending change is characterized by the following:
- Restlessness,disillusionment, questioning your life path
- Unexpected changes, situations to deal with, more responsibility in personal or professional life, often not initiated by you, possibly loss
- Authority issues, power dynamics in relationships that cause disharmony
- Decisions, decisions, decisions
- Burnout, disengagement, low energy/enthusiasm, feel stuck in career or life
- A general feeling of misalignment in life priorities, desire for simplicity, spirituality

What is really happening and how does it relate to the above symptoms?
Simply put, when we experience transits or change especially during midlife, the soul is trying to wake you up.
Its getting ready to activate NEW consciousness AND align to a higher path and your unique expression.
The situations are trying to remind you of what your soul has come to do that you may have forgotten.
Yes, you do have a purpose and its time to connect with it AND pursue it. Now. And not push it off till retirement.

What can I do to navigate these times effectively ?
Awaken your cosmic perspective: The timing of the transits is a way for soul to align you to the cosmic rhythm. Even if the situations seem ‘unpredictable’, there is a way to move through it.
Understand what kind of transit or sacred timing you are going through. They will give clues to the season (winter, spring, summer, autumn) of life that is calling your attention.
Know the symptom of the season to understand what change they are catalyzing. Winter (Pluto, Chiron transit) needs a different set of strategies than spring (Neptune) or summer (Saturn). Each sacred timing has a different energy/gift/skillset.
Activate self-agency and self-leadership: The transits and timings are always trying to awaken a higher consciousness within. Don’t be fooled by the intensity of the experience but be open to what lessons you need to complete so the new consciousness awakens.
Many get stuck in a pattern of just dealing with the intensity but fail to see what mental/emotional habits need to fall away and what new habits need to be cultivated. Be willing to walk this phase of your life with ultra awareness and intention. Be willing to face old and limiting patterns, fears and doubts and the discomfort of change.
Your a NOT a victim of your circumstances but have innate creation skills. Its time claim these skills and use them with responsibility.
Change power dynamics: This is perhaps the most important aspect of personal transformation.
Any place in your life with imbalanced power dynamics will show up clearly. What old power issues are ready to dissolve where you feel less than or greater than others or powerless or are misusing your power to control? What is your relationship with authority and authority figures?
Soul has an intention to step into sovereignty. Develop the ability to skillfully transform a dis-empowered state to empowerment and step into a new level of self-leadership and power.
As you clear blocks to personal power, you amplify your own ability to create your life.
And how do you manage the intensity and clear blocks to power?
The key to this is Life Force Mastery.
Life Force Mastery
Life Force Mastery is the bridge to transform the intensity of the timing/transits/situation into its gift - which is alignment to higher purpose and your authentic voice and perhaps even self-realization!
Ultimately the purpose is to become an impeccable conscious creator of your life so you don’t recreate the past (karma) but continue to align to a higher vibration and evolve.
Reconnect with principles of right creation: Recognize that you create your life through conscious and unconscious use of your life force. The situations you are facing now are the result of past usage of life force. When you reconnect with and remember the principles of creation, and how you utilize your life force to create changes. You transform the default way you create your life and hence the outcome.
This implies you connect with soul intent within and direct your life force from that place and not external inputs or expectations. You work with your life force energy (elements) and not against them.
Take charge of your own life force: Your life force includes the elements of Air, Water, Fire, Earth, Spirit - your thoughts, emotions, actions, body and connection to spirit.
Rather than using them by default and not understanding the consequences of each, you intentionally connect with each and understand their qualities. You master the ability to clear life force that is blocked and learn to direct them with precision towards your life creations.
Mastery of elemental principles of life force leads to creating with intention rather than random scattering of energy in response to outer inputs, which then you have to respond to through the consequences and situations that come to you.
Which element needs to be balanced, which is depleted or in excess, which needs attention - you learn how to move life force effectively. This helps you to become an effective creator and stop creating misalignment in your life.
This aligns you to your higher purpose and activates your authentic voice.
Embody elemental powers: The key to sustainable aligned creation is embodying the elemental powers. Water the emotional realm teaches about emotional maturity and holding equanimity within, Air the mental realm teaches the power of clear vision, holding a clean vibration and communication that builds rather than tears down.
Fire teaches about aligned action, authentic visibility and the ability to make timely transformation in life without burning down what is valuable to you.
Earth teaches how to create sustainable structures, work with time dynamics and stand as an individuate being.
Spirit teaches about expressing your unique essence.
Together, the unified field of all elements helps you to stand powerfully in your ability as a conscious creator.
If you reframe the uncomfortable situation or timing and transits as ‘sacred’ instead of a burden to bear or bad luck, and take charge of how you use your life force to break those old patterns, you greatly resolve old karmic chapters and open pathways to new consciousness and your unique authentic expression.
And what will expressing your unique self give you?
Authentic Voice
What the soul is longing for – expression of your unique authentic voice
When you connect with and express your unique voice, the following start to happen:
- Align to life mission, soul purpose and calling - what you were born to do. You find the reason for incarnating. Your place in the world.
- The unique expression of divine creator comes through you. You start expressing your original ideas, thoughts of your own, your thought leadership starts to emerge and you develop a voice of personal authority.
- You start living according to your purpose. This soul alignment keeps you on track for your evolution. There is freedom for the soul to expand.
- This results in consistent peace, contentment, joy, a sense of passion, purpose and harmony.
How do I activate my authentic voice?
Life force mastery and clearing where each of the elements which are blocked, goes a long way to activate your authentic voice. Specifically related to the voice, the following skills need to be developed:
Dissolve the false voice: Notice how you think, perceive and communicate. Often, our default expression comes through the filter of past pain, fear of the future, and judgment and the inner critic. These are NOT your authentic voice. These are habitual ways of thinking and using your life force that has the brain stuck in patterns that are not helpful. Once you start to clear the old pain, resentment, turn self abandonment into self love, your core unique wisdom is revealed. Once you transform judgment and self suppression and criticism to discernment, wisdom and mastery, transform your fears and doubts to create safety to go beyond your comfort zone, your authentic voice becomes loud and clear. Its already within you.
Listen for your authentic voice or Muse: This is a key skill to develop, to really listen to the voice of your soul, how divine creator wants to express through you. You learn to override the default expression of the false voice and tap into a larger vision of your soul. Embody those qualities of your authentic voice. This helps to expand the perception of your own self, who you really are, your larger more expanded identity.
Develop and articulate your voice of personal authority: Once you have faced the fear of big vision, identity change and possibility of expansive growth, once you start listening to your authentic qualities, your sense of self expands and evolves. Personal will aligns with divine will and starts to get articulated in your life as your own voice of personal authority. This feeds your calling and onto a path of ever evolving soul growth.
