Why Traveling Light?

Over a year ago in my morning journaling, I asked a simple question to my higher self. "How do I navigate these times?" It was early February, 2025, and I had been wrestling emotionally with the vast waves of change I could see and sense in the political landscape. It felt dark, wild, unpredicatable. The prior month I found myself with so many conflicting trains of thought and action. Preparing for physical disaster and prepping supplies to help my community if shit went sideways and at the same time investigating the actual logistics of moving out of the country. Preparing to stay, preparing to leave; my emotions were and up and down, all around. Am I overreacting? Am I underreacting? Am I crazy? Is everyone else? It felt very similar to early 2020 and the beginning of COVID but way more complicated.

Over 2024 I completed the Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, a big part of which is daily journaling. She calls it "Morning Pages" (or perhaps, during these times they turn to mourning pages) where the instruction is to write three pages first thing in the morning. So last year I discovered that after I bitch and moan and complain and get all that out, a space is cleared within me and I can hear higher aspects of me. A surprising way to connect with inner guidance. I just write a question and then get out of the way and write whatever comes up.

My question that day was "How do I navigate these times?" and the answer popped out:

Be light. Be the light. Open your heart and understand at the truth of who you are is much bigger than this. It's time to stop playing small and start playing light, in all sense of that word. Light, luminous. Light, lightness as in not heavy. Light as in traveling light. Release attachment to the old as it does not serve you now.

Allow everyone and everything to be as it truly is. Understand that you are connected to the Source of all things and you always have what you need. You always have what you need. Withdraw your energy from attachments and things that don't support you. Invest your energy in light.

Traveling light. You are traveling light (noun). You are traveling light (verb). You are traveling light (adverb). Understand all levels at once."

Whoa. Releasing attachment to the old resonates in a big way. I can see that collectively that is one invitation we are all getting.

So please, I invite to you join be on this journey of traveling light, releasing attachment to the old and bringing in something new and hopefully even better than we could have possibly imagined.
