For me, this is a time of testing, of making things right. Within us is a desire to create our reality but the truth is, there is a reality, regardless of our active creation of it. Sometimes things must happen in order for others to come - for them to come within our circle and find their place… so even though we are 'actively' creating our reality, we can only do so much.

Some say it's time to create… I say, it's time to "allow".

Rather than creating, open yourself up to the flow… allow that flow to work through you for your greatest good. Allow this energy to move you in directions you would not move normally but you need to move - within - to move forward.

Within "allowing", within the "flow"… there is great light, great benefit and a lot of love and support.

Ever feel like everything is just happening in your life and you have no control? This is what being in the flow is all about. It's not about being in control, it's about allowing yourself to just move within the flow which already exists.

Rather than actively creating your reality, perhaps it's time to 'go with the flow' in a bigger way than you have before.

I like to say, "Goddess I am here, for your will. Please use me. I am giving my life and myself up to You for Your purposes… please accept me and my life as your instrument."

I hope this method works for you as wonderfully as it has for me in the past sixteen years. I have had great abundance, great love and great joy come to me - and I love just simply 'going with the flow'.

My hubby and I have been attempting to create our own reality lately. Reading books and watching DVD's about this very subject… we thought it was time to become more active in our creation… the only difference I've noticed since we started taking the time to create our reality daily is a focus on what's not happening, what's not there… where is the 'daily creations' we are working on?

So, even though I was attempting to do something positive in my life, I ended up doing something which focused on the negative instead! So, as of today, I choose to "flow" rather than "create". I'll save my active creating for special times as I believe when you don't over-use something it has more power - at least that's been my experience.

I hope my little sharing assists you in deciding how you want to live your life. Perhaps creating your reality actively is the way for you… I can only suggest you try both and see which one makes your life happier and less stressful.

blessed be,
Aleesha
