Remain CuriousBy Derek John Thomas / July 11, 2024 Taking optimal advantage of the power of intention in creating our lives is a wonderful thing. We know that we develop preferences and make decisions about those things that we want to be, do, or have, and those experiences land on the course of our intentional lives waiting for us to move in their direction. Whether we are consciously aware of it or not, we are constantly sifting and sorting the information we gather into categories ranging from desired to undesired as well as things attention is given to and things attention is removed from. It is a wonderful advantage of intention and the law of attraction. There is a trap, however. Many people seem to think that we have come here to figure things out. They think we are here to decide or even control and regulate those things which are good and those which are not. Many think that we are to sort out our preferences, and that it is the sorting and determining that is our objective here in the physical universe. The implication is that once we’ve got it figured out, it is eternally decided. To put it in laughably simplistic terms, if we discover that we prefer chocolate to vanilla when we are children, then that is the decision till the day we leave this physical plane. It very well might be that we will continue to prefer chocolate, but many seem so attached to their decisions that when a preference shifts to a different thing, for example vanilla, God forbid, that there is something wrong with us. Something has gone wrong and it must be remedied. Just as we are here to evolve as we live our lives, our decisions and preferences must necessarily evolve with us. The wonderful thing is that the course of our river of intention will very easily and immediately adjust to match our new preferences. For this to be accomplished, we are called to maintain our curiosity about everything. Do I really want this experience? Who am I really? Is this thought true? The more we are willing and able to adjust our understanding to our newly evolved selves and environments, the more intentionally we will live. This week’s tarot and oracle spread very powerfully advises us to remain curious. If you want a private reading from me, my reading shop will be live on this site soon.
