The Awakened You: What to Expect

Let’s begin with a reminder of what a self-awakening actually is: Self-awakening is defined as a hunger for growth, self-development, and self-discovery. If you are wanting to learn more about what a self-awakening is, and the kinds that there are, please check out my blog.

Now, here’s the question: You know you are experiencing an awakening by the signs you are exhibiting - but what can you expect from this ‘awakened you’?

1. It won’t be as crystal clear or as fast of a process as we would like.

It will be a challenge. The movies may show you a fast-paced montage, but changing yourself and life is not such a speedy process. Think of it like biking up a series of hills. There will be highs, lows, perhaps some stalling. Sometimes you’ll wish you could just turn around completely - but we must keep looking forward!

2. You will realize a lot of hard truths about yourself.

To change is to recognize who you were in the first place! This recognition is crucial, but not the easiest thing to do. Just keep in mind that we are all human, we all make mistakes, and we all are growing. 

3. Not everyone will like the changes you’re making. 

As you’re seeing changes within yourself, so will everyone else around you - and they may not take too kindly to that. Hone in on who your real support system is through your awakening. Waking up is the first step, but staying that way can take a village. 

4. You will crave inspiration - choose it wisely.

During an awakening, you may be seeking more than connections - but inspirations. This could be lifestyles or even people that you feel may keep you motivated. Choose what you allow into your mental space well. As stated in how to harness your energy, choose the things that nourish you!


4. And lastly, you will feel a difference. 

Mentally, emotionally and even physically. You may feel that you are more present at the moment- and that is true. Now that you are ‘awake’ you can be your most authentic self while truly appreciating the world around you!

As we journey into the significance of self-awakenings, I would like to take this moment to introduce you to one of the tools I use to look deeper within myself: reading tarot. Reading tarot cards helps me gain clarity and connect with my spiritual wants and needs.
