Challenging June

Trying to figure it all out

Every time I write a more “personal” blog post, I’m faced with the challenge of how to be open and honest without giving away too much information which could come back to haunt me, or hurt someone’s feelings.

This often makes me put off blogging until I can, “figure it all out”, but this is one of those times that I haven’t quite been able to figure it all out, and maybe I just have to take the chance and write down how I’m feeling as openly and honestly as possible.

So with that I say June has been an incredibly challenging month for me. I’m not sure I fully believe in things like the rare three eclipses that are happening this month affecting the energy of the planet (read more about that here), but certainly SOMETHING is going on this month in which I’m supposed to learn something about myself.

I don’t complain just to complain. I honestly believe that challenging situations are put in front of us to learn and grow. My goal is to try and figure out what the universe is trying to tell me, so I can do what I need to do to move on from it, and hopefully never have to face that challenge again. Otherwise I believe you are destined to repeat it over and over until you do learn. This is just what I believe…you may have a different opinion.

I could get into the specifics of what has happened this month, but honestly every time I relive something negative I feel like I’m just stirring up that emotion again and seriously, why bother doing that right?

I can say though that the biggest challenge I’m still facing is about my current profession. There are so many situations that happened this month that I’m still trying to figure out, process, and move on from, but there are still so many unresolved issues challenges that I’m trying to work through. And I haven’t got the faintest idea how to do that. All I know is when I think about it I feel a big knot form in the pit of my stomach.

The glimmer of light is my studying to become a life coach. I’m thoroughly enjoying the process, and at the very least I can say I’m working towards something that I’m very passionate about. I’ll leave it at that for now as to try not to bite the hand that currently feeds me.

I would like to end this on a positive note. If you believe in the eclipses their energy can bring you gifts as well, so I’d like to mention those.

First I had a very good experience being a facilitator at the HOBY Norcal youth leadership seminar at Saint Mary’s College in Moraga, CA.

I was hesitant only in the fact that I’m rarely around teenagers young adults so that was a new experience. I was excited though to put some of the things I’ve learned in life coach training to good use.

Although the schedule was grueling (not to mention I haven’t lived the dorm life in over 20 ye a long time! But what made it special was the student ambassadors, especially the ones in my group (The Hurricanes). They are some of the brightest, sweetest, and most ambitious kids I’ve ever met. Their motivation to change the world for the better was truly inspiring!

I also can’t forget about doing really well in a CBVA AA beach volleyball tournament at the beginning of June!

And a couple little gems that popped up this past week. One being I brought my Iphone in to the Apple store because it was acting buggy. I bought it in November and I have to say I was a bit careless taking care of it and the back was pretty scratched. And I, ahem, may have dropped it once or twice. Shhh, don’t tell Apple. Anyway with no questions asked I got a brand new phone, and also purchased a new protective case for it for good karma.

I also discovered that I had a $100 gift card from my gym (I have no idea how that happened) that was about to expire two days after I discovered it. My gym has a spa so I signed up for a 70 minute vitamin C facial that was absolutely glorious!!

So apparently there is one more big eclipse event happening July 1. So basically my goal this week is to just have an intention of trying to attract the most positive energy I can get. I guess I should really do that every day, not just this week, right? I’m hoping for the best!

What has your June been like? Has anyone had to face more challenges than usual? I would love to know!
