I always find it interesting when people ask me if I have read a certain book or listened to a certain teacher. I use my inner guidance to feel what I am vibing with. Sometimes, I do check into a teacher/book that was mentioned. By checking, I look at the cover of a book, watch a few minutes of a video, or look at their posts on social media to get a feel for what they are about.

Teachers come and go, ebb and flow weaving their way through my life. Some stay and some go. I have noticed that I enjoy 100 year old esoteric teaching (alchemy teachings), modern takes on ancient teaching, and definitely "enlightened" teachers. Since returning from my sabbatical, of sorts, I have been drawn to masculine/feminine polarity teachers.
Feminine energy has been something I have neglected over the years. I have worked in completely male dominant environments, and that completely distorted my views of being in this world as a female. I can see now that on a subtle level, I was wrapped up in the masculine distortion this society has created as well. I am beginning to see healthy masculine and feminine as well as distorted masculine and feminine views of reality. Which, I feel, will assist along with my own awareness of the distortions in my life. Putting these realizations into practice is my work at this time.

Wow, I have a lot to say about this today. One small observation that I haven't even gotten to yet.
Today, I saw a post, and I noticed a slight change in my energy and feeling to continue reading. A coach was speaking about a movie he had seen and mentioned another coach whom he parted ways with. I thought that it was strange and unnecessary to include a comment about another coach in a post that was about a movie. It wasn't strange that he mentioned the other coach because he does that once in a while. It's unnecessary cause it was about a movie. (This is simply my perception of the event) This prompted me to reflect on what happened to my energy, how I was feeling about the rest of the post, and how this affects other things I read.
My energy dropped a touch, I felt less interested in the post about the movie, and the question that a rose up in my awareness was, "Why can't people stay in their own lane and do their own thing?" (This question will receive some reflection about my own life) I also received an awareness about when this happens as I listen to or read other teachers/coaches. I often allow the drop in interest and energy to happen a few times before I move on from teachers/coaches, just to be sure of how I'm feeling.
It is a difficult thing for me to maintain my own energy. To stay in my "own lane". This is something I am working on. I am asking myself, is this something that needs my attention? Am I maintaining a small piece of awareness within my own being/body? How does this make me feel? Do I need to make changes? Do I have the awareness/consciousness to make a new choice? Have I created the peace and stillness to pause and know how I'm feeling?

What allows that feeling of peace, beauty, gentleness, stillness, or softness for you? What opens up the intuitive channels? The powerful feminine energy of creation.
