control the vacillating.
Something happened during COVID that set in motion a chain of events that brought us to where we are today.
Whether you believe in fate, manifestation, or simply the chaos of the universe, I firmly believe that there was a split or a timeline shift that happened in 2020.
And if the past 5 years have been for you anything like what they've been for me, they've been full of change, personal and professional transformation, and a realignment and reckoning I had not anticipated, but one I had long wanted.
When I think about 2026 and how these first two weeks have felt like months, I am reminded to stay centered and control the spin. I find myself vacillating between old and new, past and present, and it has been challenging to stay grounded when the entire world around us continues to fall apart and crack.
I keep saying to myself - let it.
The steps I want to take to forge a path forward become more cemented as I shake off the fog of trying to reshape the world around me and leave things behind. Respect and reverence for the past are important, but more important is not getting lost in nostalgia. You don't have to - and can't - take everything into the future with you, and that requires deep examination of the present state.
Rather than engage with and try to control the spin, I let myself move beyond the boundaries that currently constrain me and learn to exist outside the chaos. The more I remove myself from the elements that want to maintain the status quo, the more understanding I find. The less I interact with beings who promote chaos and confusion, the clearer my purposes become.
In this practice of letting go, vacillation becomes less and less, and the resonance becomes coherence. Coherence is what the collective needs now.
