WOW! 2020 was quite the year, huh!? Everything changed including the way we work, shop, interact with others, go to school, etc. No doubt, 2020 had low points, BUT it also sparked “The Great Awakening.”

What is “The Great Awakening” and why was 2020 such an important factor? Many Spiritual and Religious experts have been studying, writing about and preparing for this for decades, and some prophets wrote about this thousands of years ago in ancient texts all over Earth from Christians, to Mayans, to Egyptians and more. Although the translations differ, the main concept is the same universally. There will be a period of time, where humanity “wakes up”. Now, with everything going on in the world with the virus, politics, secret gatherings, and ties to Elite clubs who do very dark things, people are starting to question things that we’ve been told. Once you realize the structure of who controls the narrative we’ve been fed for decades which has fundamentally shaped our lives, we can see where the concept “If you control the narrative, you control the people.” comes into play.

2020 was crucial for humanity to wake up and realize our power, because we as a collective are shifting to a higher vibration and the corrupt, lower vibration motivated elite who have been in control for decades are losing control. Their power is being threatened, and they’re grasping at their last desperate attempts to stay in power and control the masses. The Bible talks about this as the rise of a global government, aka the New World Order. As the vibration of Earth rises to what we call 5D from 3D, these old power structures can no longer work. Humanity is waking up and realizing that this isn’t what we prefer as a collective. This time in history is so important because as we shift into a higher dimension, for a limited period, we have the opportunity to choose our reality or what timeline we prefer to experience in the “New Earth”.

The timeline split is a difficult concept unless you study quantum physics on the reg. It’s helpful to think of it like you’re on a train and up ahead, the tracks split. You can go left, or you can go right. So, you can stay in the 3rd dimension, or you can move to the 5th. For a period of time, these dimensions will overlap. This is referred to in the apocalypse of Elijah, where it says you can look through glass walls and see the suffering of others and not be affected. Also referred to as the “dark night of the soul”. The important thing to note is that even though you will jump back and forth between 3D and 5D for a period of time, there will eventually come a time when the tracks that split become too far apart for you to jump to the other dimension. Where you are at that time, you will remain.

What’s the difference between 3D and 5D? The 3rd dimension of consciousness is rooted in the lower energy centers in the body. It deals mostly with ego, power struggles, service to self, survival and duality. Here we have a lot of “good vs bad” separation, fear and blame. In the 5th dimension, we move more toward the heart chakra or energy center in the body. Therefore, the focus is more on unity consciousness, service to others, and unconditional love. Here, we realize the law of mirrors. This is the concept that whatever you see in others is just a reflection of something in yourself. Maybe something you have suppressed and need to face (shadow work), or an emotion you’re sending out that repeatedly comes back to you like a boomerang. Since we are all one under the Creator, the Universe cannot assert anything onto you, but rather it shows you what your soul needs through relationships with others.

So, I’m going to give y’all a personal example of important shadow work I had to do over the last year. On New Year’s Eve one year ago, my dad passed away. We weren’t close, in fact I hadn’t seen him since I was about 5 years old. Regardless, there were so many emotions I had suppressed my entire life that I had to process. Even though my dad was not a part of my life, I realized that not having him as a part of my life was a huge part of my life. I had always thought there would come a day when I would hear his side of the story. That I would receive a letter or phone call or, hell… even a Facebook DM that explained why he chose things to be this way. When he died, I realized I would never get that clarification or closure. I would never get to know who he was as a person, and that hit me harder than I ever imagined it would. In addition, I realized how his absence had shaped a lot of my other relationships. In a way, it made me stronger, more self-reliant and more successful. However, it was still a wound that needed healed, and that was no easy feat.

2020 was a year of massive shadow work for a lot of people. This is because as the vibration of the planet speeds up and the energy is higher, this pulls a lot of wounds to the surface. These wounds have to be faced, processed and healed in order for the spirit to be able to match the higher vibration of the planet. Therefore, just as 2020 was an important year for healing the shadow, 2021 going forward marks the time when we can embody the higher self in a new dimension. It is a time to manifest and expect miracles. But, before we can step into our higher self, we must first heal our repressed wounds. Here are my tips to heal for the New Year:

1. Focus on your feelings – why do they arise and what do they mean?

Write a letter to whoever hurt you. Do this for every person you can remember who has hurt you over the course of your life. You won’t give the letter to the person, but this helps you to process the emotions and see them objectively. This helps with closure and healing. Last January, I wrote a letter to my dad and it felt amazing to let out all of my repressed emotions and allow myself to cry. Which brings me to my next point – Allow yourself one pity party per issue. Then get over it. If you continue to dwell on those feelings, you’ll continue to attract things that make you feel the same way through the Law of Attraction.

2. Treat yourself right.

Invest in yourself. Get your hair done. Get a massage. Pamper yourself and do whatever makes you feel amazing! Sleep and eat right. Take care of your body. A healthy body and mind is key to healing a healthy spirit.

3. Become aware of your relationships and their impact on you.

Are your relationships healthy? Who might you need to cut? There is absolutely ZERO reason for you to hold a space in your life, and devote precious energy to people in your life that make you feel bad. BUT be careful! Are these people making you feel bad because they say and do cruel things, or because there’s something about them that irritates something inside of you that might be a reflection of something you’ve suppressed and need to deal with? What can you learn from even the hard ones? Is this a projection of some shadow work you need to do? Make sure you’re giving AND receiving love from your relationships. Release and forgive people from your past with love. Most importantly, make sure you’re nurturing relationships where you can be your authentic self.

4. Reconnect with your inner child

Relive your happy childhood moments and feel those feelings of being happy. Do things a child would do. Take risks. Don’t care about judgment. Be who you were before life introduced trauma. Be around people who make you feel a childlike innocence. One thing that I’ve started doing to reconnect with my inner child is watching cartoons on Sunday morning. When I was a kid, I loved to watch cartoons in the morning, and doing so now brings back all of the lighthearted feelings I felt when I was a child.

So, there you have my tips to heal for 2021. Your life will be more amazing once you get through the difficulties you’ve lived through and suppressed. Now that you know what you need to do, create a routine to incorporate these tips. Journal, meditate, sing, create, or do whatever it is that helps you. Do it every single day. 2021 has the energy potential to bring you more than you have ever imagined, but you have to do the shadow work! Below is a quick video to explain shadow work.
