One of my clients recently expressed concern about some coincidences she’d experienced that were giving her a case of the “heebie-jeebies”. For five days, she had been repeatedly hearing and seeing the name, Karen; and then she met a woman named Karen. Turns out, the two had met several years prior but hadn’t seen each other since. Another experience occurred at the DMV, where she and the clerk assisting her coincidently shared the same birthday and had several other things in common. Then, after telling a friend about her encounter at the DMV, her friend told her that he knew the clerk and that they had once dated. My client then told me how she’d been craving Mexican food for two days before going on a blind date with a guy who suggested they meet at a Mexican food restaurant, even though she hadn’t mentioned anything about her recent cravings.
Coincidences like these can indeed sometimes leave us with a case of nerves along with feelings of being out of control. Yet these coincidences are great opportunities to forgive, to heal and reset ourselves, as well as to reconnect to our true inner power. They provide us with an opportunity to move beyond the limitations we impose on ourselves and therefore more quickly get over those “heebie-jeebies” when future events cause them.
Coincidences are the universe’s way of telling us we’re in sync with what’s going on around us. The uncomfortableness we feel when they occur is caused by the lingering trauma of disappointments and subsequent loss of power we may have experienced in the past. Although we may at times feel powerless this month, we can choose to embrace our responsibilities despite the things that happen to us, no matter how coincidental or significant they may seem, and move forward. What may seem like an obstacle is quite often a prompt and opportunity to act.
We must be willing to work beyond our perceived limitations with neutrality and compassion. Keep your vibration high. If you feel yourself slipping into darkness, remember the vibration is high this month. Aspire to go beyond your limitations. Abundance will come this month in proportion to how we express, connect, and let our vibration shine through. And hey, if you find yourself feeling those heebie-jeebies, take advantage of them; they’re just one of the universe’s many peculiar ways of nudging you to move forward.
