During this time of self-quarantining, one of the most common experiences arising to be healed with love is loneliness. All too often, loneliness is perceived as something to discard when, in fact, it is something to transcend by learning to embrace it with openness, maturity, and authenticity. To assist you in facing loneliness from the perspective of your soul’s highest wisdom, I channeled the following insight from the Universe as a gift of clarity on this Easter Sunday:

Loneliness is not something to be surrendered. Loneliness is what we surrender into as a means of exploring our deepest vulnerabilities to set free any barriers unknowingly built up against the love we often insist must come from another.

To surrender loneliness is attempting to cast away, push away, and bypass the very experience the Universe insists upon you having. When experiences seem unavoidable, this is the Universe's way of reminding you how any personal power demonstrated in separation or opposition with the Universe will only reap greater feelings of weakness, since this is the ego’s attempt to fight with the very truth of existence that the ego is not created to perceive as its Source. While the ego cannot remember itself as a creation of Source, it is the intrinsic function of your consciousness to remember itself as the very Source within the form of your experience. In order to abide in the autonomy of oneness with the Universe, it is a matter of surrendering attachments to the ways in which you require life to be, so to allow Source energy to be your most faithful guiding light. This doesn’t mean you’ll never get 'your way', but more so in an evolving relationship of compromise. Your role is to let the Universe know exactly what you desire, while remaining open to the options at hand and making the best choices with the possibilities given.

If and when you find yourself in positions where options are limited or not reflecting the will of your desires, it is your evolving faithfulness that can realize, “if everything I want is absent from my current reality, it must not be time for such creations to be birthed. If it’s not time for such creations, my begging, pleading, and negotiating are ways in which I’m attempting to veer off my path, despite believing how off course I feel without having the things I seek. No matter how deeply I desire the things I want, I accept that they might distract from the evolution of my journey even though I insist how much they will compliment my life.”

This is why loneliness cannot be surrendered as a means of inviting greater intimate partnerships. Loneliness is not blocking your ability to call in intimate partnerships. It is the very depth of intimacy reminding you how much self-love is needed to fill your heart in order to take back the power you gave to others while believing it was their destiny to fulfill you. As you surrender into the grace of loneliness, the harrowing despair that often feels unending is not a permanent prison sentence. When letting go of the need to be anywhere else or feel any other way than how you feel right now, a cease fire is called across the battlefield of your awareness as all aspects of self are embraced with kindness, acceptance, and loving compassion at whatever pace is most authentically supportive to your evolving instincts.

Sometimes you’ll hold immaculate space for your feelings
and other times you’ll give yourself the chance to kick and
scream at the speed at which life is, or isn’t, giving you
exactly what you want.

Each and every time, there's no need to judge the varying degrees of surrender but instead, to honor it as the very process bringing you into greater faithful alignment with a Universe that will not let you fail under any circumstance. This is why loneliness is not something to be surrendered. Loneliness is what we surrender into as a means of exploring our deepest vulnerabilities to set free any barriers unknowingly built up against the love that we often insist must come from another.

May this time of self-quarantine be used to face each feeling as a way of deepening your relationship with Source by offering comfort, care, and compassion to the most displaced and shut down parts within you that cry out for love.

Many blessings of triumph, renewal, and resurrection sent your way on this sacred and auspicious Easter Sunday. Such a day is not limited to the belief systems of organized religion, but is a reminder that no matter the circumstances that life seems to take away, each experience can only inspire a greater radiance to shine within you as never before.

All For Love,
