-Starting this Friday I am gong to be starting a special series of blog posts addressing the Gay Soul. My soul has been directing me to do specific dialog and healing work with members of the men who love men community. During these blog posts I’ll address topics various topics that affect our community: shame, homophobia, community engagement, overculture pressure, relationships, and more. I am also going to be creating a Facebook group that will allow us to discuss some of the topics I’ll be addressing in the blog series. If you are interested in joining the conversation you can email me at: michael@michaelbrazell.com, or message me via my facebook page: www.facebook.com/soulintuitive

-Mercury retrograde is upon us (Oct 4th – Oct 25th)! Stay centered and be prepared. As the years have progressed, the intensity of astrological alignments have increased. It is vital to have patience, to center, and to stay aligned with your soul mission. Even if you feel that these astrological alignments do not impact you directly, they may impact those that you deal with. Pay attention to communication, plan ahead, and be prepared.

-The ripples from the global events are impacting all of us. Many of us may feel helpless as the world moves through its upheaval cycle. You are much more powerful than you think. This is a time for us to step into deeper places of service. Shine your gifts out into the world. Shine your soul’s light into the darkness. Engage in prayer, meditate, activate your healing modalities, and stay informed! Many of us turn away from the news of world events, but just because you ignore it, doe not mean that it will not impact you. Do your research! Do not take things at face value. Dig deeper and ask questions. As we move forward my intuition is directing me to share more information and solutions. Each week I’ll post an intuitive geopolitical update, but also action steps that we can take to help increase awareness, and decrease the impact of these actions on our lives. We will also look at how we as individuals can increase the energy of light in the world.

Soul Message:

Beloved, KNOW that you are loved. This is a time of change and transition. Many of you are feeling the impact that upheaval and change usually brings. Know that these changes are bringing you an opportunity to come into greater presence. Many of you seek to escape your situations, but this is not possible. Coming into presence allows you to coming into alignment with the power of your soul. Trust the deep inner knowing, the deep stillness, trust that even in the chaos the divine hand is holding you in grace. Do not fear as movement begins, this is a time of initiation. Trust the process that your intuition is offering you, it is able to give you solutions to the problems you are facing. Remember how deeply you are loved, hold this at your heart, and live it.

As always—-

You are loved. You are Beautiful. You are Divine.

The Power of Structure

September 14, 2014 / soulinteraction / Leave a comment

I love fluidity in my spiritual work, but I’ve noticed that I have been a little too loosey goosey with things as of late. I’ve seen this in a lot of friends and clients as well. In the past few weeks I’ve had a lot of time to self-reflect. I’ve been able to dive a bit deeper into my personal experience to see what I need to do to get myself back on track, to go deeper. When there is structure, there is foundation. Today, I sat with my intuition. It told me that I need to be a bit more structured in how I approach my personal spiritual work. I have a military background, so structure and discipline are nothing new to me, but it can be a bit tough to step back into those waters, but I feel that it is necessary.

Today is a good day for building a new foundation. The sky is a bit overcast, and the temperatures are starting to cool. Sitting outside in nature allows me to see how everything is just moving at a beautiful rhythm and pace, it has a structure… not one that limits, but one that allows for the deepest expression. Over the past few weeks I’ve seen myself slowing purging from my life the things that are no longer serving my highest intent and purpose. Friendships have changed, evolved or fallen away. What I choose to give my attention to has also changed. I do feel the deep call of distraction from time to time. Too often we feed our distractions, because to feed our points of power means that we have to change completely. Now that I am aware of those distractions I’ve started the process of removing them. I’ve deleted unnecessary apps from my phone, am limiting my time on social media, and am doing a deeply structured fast this week.

Structure shouldn’t be looked at as punishment, but if we are just floating through our experience and not engaging a deeper sense of purpose, we need to take a look at that. Everything has intention behind it. Even when we choose to step out of our light, that carries intention, and that ripples through all of creation. For me, structure allows me to be more powerful, it allows me to be fluid with purpose. It also helps to eliminate fear.

Starting this week, I am making even more changes with how I work with spirit, but also in some of the direction I take with engaging the world and my soul community at large. I’ve seen other amazing people stand deep in their truth, bringing new perspectives to light, and opening their inner awareness.. these individuals have inspired me to no longer hold back. For a long time I’ve preferred not to rock the boat, but sometimes you have to rock it to clean off the barnacles. Having structure also allows us to be okay with whatever happens when we take those steps onto a new phase of our journey. The things I’m going to be bringing forward are going to be new for me to talk about, but are things that I and my Soul feel are important to start sharing.

What would having more structure look like to you? Where do you need more structure in your spiritual life? What can you do right now to move towards deeper connection and commitment?

You are Loved. You are Beautiful. You are Divine.

Breathing in… Breathing out

September 11, 2014 / soulinteraction / Leave a comment

I‘ve been sitting in front of a blank screen trying to decide what to write. Life has been interesting the past few weeks. It seems that “loss” is theme that I’ve had to deal with. Don’t get me wrong, nothing too tragic has happened, but the small losses remind us of the bigger ones we have faced in life, and remind us of life’s ever-changing landscape. I’m also noticing that we are all more reactive than usual. There are a lot of unusual astrological events occurring that are making us a bit wonky, but since I’m not an astrologer I’m not going to be going too deeply into those. The world is also moving from crisis to crisis, and we are all trying to hold onto a bit of sanity.

I’m finding myself going a bit more inward, and am hearing my intuition telling me that things are going to balance out soon. I’m finding that in order to move forward with clarity, that I’m having to let go a bit more… and not a superficial letting go, but letting go from the core… deeply releasing elements of my past so that I can stand present in my presence. My journal has become my sidekick, tho even at times I resist visiting it. When we go through lots of rapid change it challenges our identity. We come a bit unglued. We see whats really beneath the surface, and this gives us an opportunity to ask ourselves the tougher questions.. “who am I”.. “what is my calling”.. and “where am I going”

I believe that God in its infinite wisdom knows that if we are shown the final destination on the map, that we would run away screaming as if tho we were just lit on fire. So, we get small snippets of grace. We move into and out of alignment so that we can learn a little more about ourselves, about the universe and about the people in our lives. Over the past few weeks I’ve learned a lot about myself and what I want to create with my path. My life is in a state of evolution, and that means that more changes are on the horizon in regards to my work, what I will be offering the world, and what I will be doing. I feel that I need more authenticity in my personal walk with God, and I feel that as this opening continues to happen that it will be for the best. When we are called to service, we are called to respond from the very core of our being. It requires brutal honestly, and deep vulnerability. I think that too often we are afraid to step onto our paths for fear of what we will lose by taking those first timid steps… and the answer is: everything.

Each breath is an invitation for us to join life, to step a little more deeply onto the path in front of us. We don’t have to know where we are going, but we do need to show up. Showing up allows us to begin. What keeps you from showing up?

I’m going to be more personal on this blog. I am also going to be dong a lot more teaching centered work. My goal is to empower others to stand in grace, to claim their power, and to create community.

Stay tuned for the changes. 🙂 I appreciate each and every person that reads and follows this blog.

You are Loved. You are Beautiful. You are Divine.
