In a deck of Tarot cards, there are 2 types of cards known as the Major and Minor Arcana. The Minor arcana is basically what we know as playing cards. The other – the Major arcana – is the story of the hero’s journey through archetypes. Our lives are our own hero’s (or heroine’s!) journey and the cards can tell us where we are along the way.

The hero’s journey begins with card zero. This is the card of The Fool.

The Fool (public domain)

The Fool is not actually foolish, but has a childlike optimism as he starts on his adventure. He and his canine companion are joyful, taking in the sun and the scenery, picking roses and no doubt singing a happy tune. Have you heard the saying “only fools go where angels fear to tread”? This is the card’s warning – to watch your step and be aware.

So, Happy Fool’s Day! Use this day to start your adventure new and fresh, just like spring. Reinvent yourself, step out of your shell and into the world***!

Wishing you joy and success on your journey!

PS: ** The World is the last card in the Major arcana and the hero’s journey. It means: fulfillment and completion, integration, satisfaction, a feeling of accomplishment and realization.

When you listened to the whisper of your soul, when you connected with your divine self from the exercise from the last post – what images do you see? What nudges did you get? What answer did you get in response to your life question? What synchronicities did you experience? Whom did you meet and what information did they have for you? What book or information found its way to you?

Many times we ask our higher selves for guidance and then don’t follow it. The guidance we receive may be outside our comfort zone. For example, you may see an image of yourself speaking in front of people – and then you say No WAY! Some people fear public speaking more than death! Maybe you are one of them. But what if public speaking could fast track your business success? You could follow your intuition and experience this – or you could make a decision based on fear (instead of love or truth) and not try public speaking. And you may not experience business success for several more years yet. There’s more than one path to the top of the mountain – and your intuition knows the shortcut!

Acting on intuitive impulses, inspirations, and dreams to follow your highest path and purpose – to express your divine self – will always lead to success and fulfillment!

To your joy and prosperity!

Blessings,

PS: Expressing your divine self in an income-producing manner is seldomly aligned with a J-O-B. My most recent case in point: a client was doing work he really liked for an enormous corporation. Then he got laid-off, but could bump someone of lesser seniority. The management kept him on awhile longer in this job that he liked, trying to get him back in. In the mean time, the executives slotted someone else into the job that he was laid off from stating that since he was laid off they couldn’t give it back to him. Go figure. The management then decided to give him a job he hates with less pay. But at least he has a J-O-B right?

You tell me – is this man following his life purpose? Is he living in Truth or Fear? We discussed that yes, he has a family to support and that comes first. But does he want to stay in the job that sucks until he can retire? Would it not be better for everyone if he were to express his soul purpose? To bring his gifts to the world? Everyone has their own unique gifts that must be brought into the world. Yes, you, too! Learn how to create a successful and fulfilling Purposeful Biz and bring your gifts to the world!

3. How To Tell If You Are On The Right Path

Your soul incarnates here with the intention of learning through life lessons and evolving through following the path of your life purpose. In your journey through life, your higher self (your soul, your divine self) guides you with the wisdom, love and patience through your intuition.

In business and in life, it is so important to trust your intuition. People and media try to influence us all the time on what to eat, wear, what to do for a living, how to make money and what to think. We have information (and advertising) overload. Now, you do a good job navigating this chaos, but overwhelm often results. And before the overwhelm hits, it’s best to already be using your intuition to navigate. Your intuition is your most trustworthy source of information – it is subtle so that it will not interfere with free will, it won’t lie to you, ask us to act in opposition to our values, and it can cut straight through the crap. No one else knows better than you how to live your life than your divine self.

Your divine self knows where you are going and understands where you are coming from. This inner wisdom is not a product of experience but rather a piece of your connection to the universal mind.

You tap into your intuition easily when you are connected to your divine self. So, how do you know if you are connected? You will experience one or more of the following:

• You feel a deep sense of joy, contentment, bliss or love.
• You see beauty in your surroundings. Elements in your environment may seem to be more luminous or brightly coloured, and have more presence.
• You feel a connection to the elements in your environment. Like you are one with the entire Universe, or simply the tree you are leaning against.
• You feel lighter and more uplifted.

There are many ways to access your intuition through connection to your divine self, and I am going to share one way with you.

Think of a question that you need an answer to and keep it foremost in your mind throughout your day. This can be a personal question or a business question. One question to get you started with is: What is my next step in fulfilling my life’s purpose?

When you have a couple of minutes to get quiet do so – preferably in a place where you will not be disturbed and where you feel an aesthetic connection (a beautiful park or other place in nature, a serene spot in your home, etc).

Spend some time looking for – and finding – the beauty in your surroundings. Connect with it. Appreciate it. This will lead to a raising of your vibration level.

When you feel that bliss, connection, beauty and lightness of being, bring your question to mind.

Set an intention that you be led through intuition and synchronicity.

Let go of attachment to outcomes.

Stay still and quiet for a few more moments in this state of raised vibration and see what presents itself. Were you daydreaming? What about? Does it relate literally or symbolically to your question? If you are outside in nature, did any animals appear to you? What did they do? How does this relate to your question?

Have fun with this!

To you joy and prosperity!

Blessings,

Keena

PS: A quote from Daily OM: “In the whole of your existence, no force you will ever encounter will contribute as much to your ability to do what you need to do and be who you want to be as your natural wisdom. Through it, you reveal your growing consciousness to the greater source and discover the true extent of your strength. If you heed this wisdom with conviction and confidence, the patterns, people, and fears that held you back will be dismantled, paving the way for you to fulfill your truest potential.”

Continuing the tale of my losing my soul, my way… and how I discovered my true path…

I have always been highly intuitive, but had really become disconnected from it in the previous years as well. So, I went in search of it, knowing that my intuition would have the right answers for me. Concurrently, I went searching for my life’s purpose. I had thought it was art, but that wasn’t the whole of it, so I found out – and that is why I felt so lost.

I learned to tap into my intuition and got a lot of guidance (especially synchronicities) from my Spirit Guides. The major turning point was when I was led to Soul Realignment and became a certified practitioner. It was through this modality that I learned my soul origin and history, learned my soul level gifts and talents and what I did to help people between lives. This filled in a LOT more information! And then I learned about how your life purpose can be read from your hands (a scientific practice, no less! No woo-woo here (as much as I love woo-woo)).

Now all the puzzle pieces were in place. Everything in the hand analysis backed up what I already knew from the Akashic Records and fleshed it out, particularly in the realm of life lessons. For once, I had a clear idea of my life purpose, life lessons, and great clarity about the choices I had made in my life to this point. I also now have great clarity about where I am going from here!

Strangely enough, even though I *thought* I was lost in a hedge-maze and not living my life purpose, and wondering what it was – I had been mostly on my path all along! So, for those of you who feel the same as I did in my dark night of the soul, please know that you are not as far off as you think you are!

The lessons I learned from this adventure so far:

Embrace the dark night of the soul. It’s a real wake-up call, and when it’s done you will emerge stronger and inspired for a fresh start. It is a metamorphosis.

Despite feeling “lost”, you are not really that lost after all! So take heart!

Know thyself. The better you know yourself, the smoother life will be. It’s the difference between travelling in a fog or on a crystal clear day.

Be conscious of your highest path and purpose. This fits in with knowing yourself. Life, your choices, your experiences, the obstacles that present themselves will all make so much more sense! There will be fewer struggles and drama, and more ease and flow. Life will be just so much more meaningful. And the other thing is, that even if you have a really good sense of your life purpose, as I did from the time I was a child, there were many more nuances than I suspected! It’s good to know these – it put me on the path I am now on – which I love, and may have never come to or understood before.

Even though a friend or loved one may recommend something, we have to trust our intuition and select a path that really connects with what our soul needs most.

I would love to hear the wisdom you have gained from your own journeys. Please share on the blog.

To your joy and prosperity,

Keena

Are the doors to your prosperity open?

You have all heard of – and hopefully consciously apply – the Law of Attraction in your life, right? And 90% of you – at least – are trying to attract more money and prosperity in your life, right? Well, how is it going to come to you?

Most people believe that you can’t just sit there and have a bag of money fall into your lap. It is true simply because you believe it to be true. In addition to the familiar stories of miracles such as Jesus’ loaves and fishes and others, there are reports of modern day yogis in India who can create food, gems and gold out of thin air, so it CAN be done and don’t let any Law of Attraction guru tell you that action is required. It is simply a belief.

“Your action has nothing to do with your abundance! Your abundance is a response to your vibration. Of course, your belief is part of your vibration. So if you believe that action is part of what brings your abundance, then you’ve got to unravel that.” — Abraham

Overcoming the limiting belief that you can’t manifest out of thin air, though, will likely take years of spiritual practice and rigorous self-examination. And so it is easier and more practical to simply say that manifesting on the physical plane requires action.

There are many ways to have money come to you, and the Universe is very creative: you could have people give you money, you could inherit it, your ex could graciously pay all of something for your child – for example, tuition, and thus you have the money you would have otherwise spent, you could get some coupons or find some good sales. The trouble with this is that they can be small amounts or they are sporadic or both.

A native spiritual healer that I am friends with says: “you don’t have to work for money to come to you.” However, he tends to think of it more as opportunities to make money coming to you, rather than the bags of money themselves. And in this we find our solution!

In order to open the doors to prosperity and manifest consistent increased prosperity over time – which is what we all really want – we are best served by having the means for the Universe to easily do it! The easiest, most fun, most spiritually and financially rewarding way to do this is to create a business.

Now don’t panic! This can be a small, side-income for you – it doesn’t have to replace your job. Some people do not have the temperament to cope with being a full-time entrepreneur. And that’s okay! Especially when you’ve never had a side-business before, you don’t necessarily want to jump right in. There is a lot to learn. But it’s fun! And rewarding. And can really be spiritually and financially expanding.

For me, ever since I was 10 years old I have had both side-businesses and full-time businesses – all related to expressing my life purpose. And so my businesses seem to be entangled with my spiritual growth. It has been a wonderful journey for me and it is this journey that I would love for you to experience, too!

You may have noticed some changes to the Simply Divine Life website in the past couple of weeks. I’ve changed the look slightly in celebration and to mark the difference. It’s not a change more than simply a tweak – an addition to the services and products I already offer.

Simply Divine Life is still about:

a)      discovering your life purpose and

b)      expressing it with success and fulfillment, too.

But now part b is more focussed on ways to create prosperity, success and fulfillment through the spiritual path of a purpose-based conscious business.

I can now help you start-up your business (and develop it), or if you already have one and it’s not going where you want it to, then I can help you tune it up.

Prosperity is more than business – and I will also write posts and create courses that have nothing to do with business and everything to do with prosperity, too! I am offering a course at CNC here in Vanderhoof on November 6^th, called “Wealth and Success from the Inside Out”. For those who can’t make it to the live event I will be making it into a digital course.

I am so excited to be offering this addition and I can’t wait to work with you!

Love and light,

Keena
