Reflection helps your redirection.
By Kate Rose — Written on Jun 16, 2023
Manifestation, like life, is continually bringing your awareness into the present moment and then seizing the opportunity for reflection. To reflect means to process your emotional feelings, logical thoughts and the physical sensations in your body that a situation or moment causes. Doing this makes you more aware of what feels aligned with your truth and what doesn't.
Although being committed to your intention is important, so too is slowing down and going into a deeper reflection about how you feel about it and what is currently happening within your life. The process of manifesting and creating a life that you love isn't one to be rushed but to enter into with great awareness, humility, and the desire to learn. This ensures that as you progress through it, it becomes not just about you living your dreams — but transforming into the person you are meant to be.
As Pluto reenters Capricorn during its retrograde journey, you are being given to returning for deeper awareness so you can settle the past, bringing closure to it, before you take a giant step into the new beginning you felt calling to you earlier this year. It isn't backtracking but a chance to build greater stability as your reflection process helps you know precisely where to redirect your path and energy now.
