5 Signs You Are Going Through a Spiritual Awakening
Are You Going Through a Spiritual Awakening?
Spiritual awakenings look so much different than we expect them to. Often, when one thinks of going through an awakening, it brings to mind feelings of blissful peace and a higher vibration that suddenly appears and solves all of our earthly problems!
That concept, however, is far from the truth. When experiencing a spiritual awakening, you are shaken to the very core of our existence and are breaking down emotionally and mentally.
You are crawling through the darkness, exploring the very depths of your fears, and healing from the traumatic circumstances and situations in your life that caused them.
Many refer to this aspect as shadow work, but in a spiritual awakening, it is truly more like the dark night of the soul. This deep soul work comes forward naturally when one is going through this process, and challenges everything you thought you knew about yourself.
Most often, while in the midst of an awakening, you are unaware of what is taking place. You may only see it when you finally allow yourself to step back into the light.
The following are just a few signs you may be going through a spiritual awakening.
Spiritual Awakening Sign Number 1 – Things That You Thought You Were Over Suddenly Reappear
You may have been thinking you had healed any baggage you had been carrying, and had forgiven all involved in any situations or circumstances in your life that were hindering your spiritual growth, and then, all of a sudden, you are bombarded with memories in relation to those things.
You start to become triggered by those around you, and have old wounds start to feel fresh all over again, and maybe even feel confused about why this is happening to you!
Spiritual awakenings challenge every inch of healing still needed within you in the deepest, darkest corners of your being.
Spiritual Awakening Sign Number 2 – Your Circle of Friends Drastically Changes
You may find your circle of friends drastically changes when you are going through a spiritual awakening. You may simply no longer resonate with the things that once drew you together.
You will go through a “shedding” process where you let go of all situations, circumstances, and even relationships that are no longer serving your purpose.
It may seem like a lonely time, and you may even feel a bit depressed during this time of letting go of current relationships and the interim of waiting for new relationships to show up in your life.
Spiritual Awakenings Sign Number 3 – You Can No Longer Watch the News
As you go through a spiritual awakening, you become very aware of all types of manipulation and control. You may become very aware of all the “programming” in the world, especially on our world news outlets, but also all around us in every type of mainstream media.
You may even no longer resonate with watching movies or tv series that you once enjoyed watching because you can see and hear the “programming” that has been placed in even those.
Spiritual Awakening Sign Number 4 – Your Taste in Music Has Changed Abruptly
I have heard of musicians who once loved a particular genre of music no longer resonating with the same type of music at all. They become more aware of the influence they have over others in what they are creating, and therefore, become more conscious creators.
The same is true for those who love music and are constantly listening to music. Those going through a spiritual awakening often find they can no longer listen to music they once loved because of the feelings it now invokes within them.
You may seek out more healing frequencies, as well as, more positive lyrics, or even music with no lyrics contained within the songs they listen to.
Spiritual Awakening Sign Number 5 – You No Longer Resonate with the Career You Chose
This one is huge and, of course, life-changing. People often speak of feeling lost or suddenly unsure of their life paths. Many times, having put many years of school and experience into a certain career, they may no longer love the work as they once did.
You may have a harder time getting up and going to work than before the awakening. You may often not even understand why at first, but they become deeply aware of needing a change, or you may even feel a sense of urgency to do something else, but not really know what that something else is.
You may no longer be able to handle the politics, greed, competition, fear, and even jealousy often encountered in the workplace. The environment may suddenly feel heavy to them, and be exhausted by being around the same coworkers they have been around for years!
While these are only a few signs you are going through a spiritual awakening, they are big ones that shake you up, and bring forth a new, more healed, and aware version of you who lives more on purpose with creation and all that you create.
You may feel like you will never get through this challenging time while you are in the midst of it, but being more awake is so very worth it, as once you have awakened, you cannot return to the sleeping state you started with!
