Today is the 4th May, and Facebook is scattered with Star Wars memes.

May the Fourth be with you!

So today is the perfect day for me to share a message I got from my guides a few weeks back when I was feeling completely overwhelmed.

There are so many beautiful and powerful spiritual messages in the Star Wars movies, and recently I was reminded of one to help me in my own life, and I am sure it will help you too.

I spend a lot of time on Facebook (probably too much time), and there are so many clever, insightful people sharing their knowledge and insights into the best way to run your life and business.

When I'm feeling lost or confused about what I need to be doing (which has been quite a lot lately, to be honest), I have been seeking answers from other "more successful", "wiser" souls.

And this is wonderful... except that many of them have opposing views on the best way to do things. 

Which leads me to feel MORE lost and confused. 

A few weeks ago, as I was carrying the wet clothes from the washing machine to the clothes line, lamenting about what I needed to do next to improve my situation... I asked my guides for help.

I had a flash of inspiration. It literally stopped me as I was walking, heavy wash basket in hand.

It was a vision from the very first Star Wars movie, which I loved as a child, and haven't thought about for YEARS.

The scene is near the end of the movie.

Luke is in a small jet fighter and on target to blow up the Death Star. It is frantic and dangerous - he is dodging bullets left, right and centre.

He suddenly hears the voice of ObiWan...

"Use The Force, Luke"

He switches off his targeting computer, and decides to use his intuition for the exact timing he needs to fire the gun to fulfill his mission.

Here's the scene (I looked it up at the time so I could share it with a friend of mine - and was stoked that it was 2:22 long - if you didn't already know, I LOVE repeating numbers, I see them as a sign from spirit that I'm on the right track).

 

As a child, this was my favourite scene in the movie.

I used to recite these lines:

Control room: "Luke, you've switched off your targeting computer - what's wrong?"

Luke: "Nothing. I'm alright."

And this was a powerful reminder for me to realise I needed to STOP searching everywhere else for answers and solutions.

I have ALL of them in me, I just need to slow down, breathe, relax and trust.

Follow my instincts. Wait for inspiration.

Journal, do yoga, walk amongst the trees, meditate and trust.

"Use the force."

This is also why, in my coaching I may offer suggestions and guidance but I will NEVER tell you what to do to move forward.

Because you need to be the Captain of Your Own Ship.

Move forward according to your own agenda.

Sometimes, this is easier said than done. Luke had years of training to learn how to be in touch with that inner guidance system, and I love teaching my clients how to do so.

It is a natural skill that we all have, but unfortunately, we are conditioned out of it as children. We are taught to listen to adults and others that are "wiser" than us and we forget how to find the inner knowing within ourselves.

Of course we can learn from others. The trick is to discover what information resonates with us and therefore the path we want to follow. 

This is the key to being in alignment and will fast track your success.

What can you do today to access your inner guidance?

Remember - all the possibilities lie within you.

Love,

Steph
