In having a
creativity perspective, you will find you will look at your
thoughts and the events in your life with the intention to change
your thinking and beliefs to honor
your creative spirit and
hold your creativity sacred. To help you to do this, there is a
phenomenon that can be used to access your creative ability and the
purpose for your life. It can best be described as to look to
where there is “magic” in your life or a synchronicity to your life
events.
If you look back over the years of your life, you will probably find
a few situations that appeared to be magical in what occurred. In
fact, there may have been too much synchronicity in the events to
believe as normal. It was as though there was a touch of magic. It
is as though there was some unseen force that stepped into your life
in a magical way. But it needs to be understood that we are not
talking about those profound events where people feel there was
Divine intervention to rescue them in some way. Rather, we are
talking about the more every day events that has a magical and
mystical quality.
For example, there was a seventy-three year old individual with whom
the author was assisting who was slowly accessing their creative
power through singing after many years of living the way others
wanted him to live. The singing made him fill alive and brought life
to him. He would always receive very positive comments about the
power of his singing even when he felt he had sung poorly.
Feeling the need to expand his repertoire, he went into a music
store for music from a particular singer popular about twenty years
earlier. The salesperson said they did not carry any music by that
singer. When the sales person checked the computer for the story
inventory and its overall availability in the music market, they
said no music by that singer was available. So, the individual began
to look through the music books on the shelf to see if he could find
something else that would meet his needs. He moved one music book
and there on the rack, behind the book he moved, was a book of one
hundred songs arranged for the particular singer for whom he was
looking. The book contained more than what the individual was
looking. Yet, according to the salesperson, the store records and
the availability of the music, this book did not exist.
How long did that particular book sit on the shelf, long forgotten
and overlooked, waiting for that one individual to find it? Some
would say it is luck Some would say is was a synchronicity. Yet,
because it was music that was brining life back to this individual,
finding this particular book when it supposedly no longer existed
was more magical than anything. In finding that book, there was an
increase in life in the individual.
Although this man did savor his singing for a while, he gave it up
as a routine effort. It was about a year later, he was asked to sing
again at a charity function. A year older, a year later with little
practice, and all the reasons his mind was giving him as to why he
could no longer sing, and being given a song in a key that he felt
he could not sing, he sang. His singing was even more phenomenal and
he received raving reviews. But, most importantly, he was given the
opportunity to see into the eyes of the people he made joyous as a
result of his signing.
When he saw what his singing did for people he was changed in a
profound way. Although he no longer had any doubt about the magic of
his singing for he experienced the evidence, it was still too much
for his rational mind to fully comprehend. His singing was something
he did early in life. However, he walked away from sing playing an
important part in his life because singing was not a part of life
that his mental understanding of what was important in life would
accept. Quite simply he walked away from the gift he had to give and
the magic of his life only to find it again at the age of
seventy-four when most people’s voices have become weak. Rather than
his voice being weak, it was renewing his life in a way that he
never really understood as possible.
When you align with your life purpose you align with your creative
powers. They are different aspects of the same thing because of how
energy flows within our being. When you are in the “flow” of our
creative life energy, synchronicity and “magical” events tend to be
common place. In most cases, they can be expected.
Alternatively, if you can see an area or aspect of your life were
there is synchronicity or magical quality in the events, that area
or aspect of your life is most probably where
the intention for your life lies. In fact, you can use the
synchronicity of life events to tell you where to look for your
purpose for incarnating. However, there is a caveat to this
approach. When “magic” and synchronicity is concentrated in an area
of your life and can readily be seen, it is easy to move into that
direction of life. For many of us, the magic and synchronicity of
events are more diffuse in life and tend to represent changes or
shifts in where we need to go in life. It is much as if someone or
something steps in, picks us up and moves us to somewhere else.
The important point here is to look at one’s life and see if they
can pick out those events that seem to be magical and/or contain a
synchronicity and how they unfold in our life. That information
provides guidance, or even a pattern, as to how we can anticipate
how “our” magic to manifest itself. One can even learn to use the
“magic” as a guide in their life.
Each of us are different. The way synchronicity unfolds in our life
to bring a seeming magic into our life is different for each of us.
As we become aware of these types of events in our life we can often
discern a pattern. The pattern we discern can help guide us to stay
aligned with our creative ability. For example, in the author’s
life,
review of life events indicated that he only needed to follow or
do what gave him an internal satisfaction and fulfillment. When those
events began to be less fulfilling the author knew he needed to
become prepared for someone or something to step in and take him to
the next adventure. You may find something similar true in your own
life of something completely different. Only you can look at your
life and see where the magic and synchronicity lies.
On the topic of synchronicity, what we call tragic events or
misfortunes are often also forms of synchronicity. It is just that
we have held onto something that needed to change so it appears it
was taken away by force and hence we call it tragic or a misfortune.
In these cases, one needs to stand back and ask themselves, “What do
I really see happening?” Often what happens needed to happen for us
to make the necessary changes for the creation for which we long.
But then, you may have to be out of mind, outside of how you
normally think and believe, to see it and/or understand it.
