the evil eye.

Unfortunately, no matter how good of a heart you have, it doesn't mean that only good things will happen to you or that good people will only be around you.

Unfortunately, some of your happiest moments can be ruined by sharing with the wrong people. 

Unfortunately, you have to know when to keep certain things to yourself in order to properly finish them or achieve them without outside noise and interference.

When I say noise and influence, I mean that figuratively and energetically.
 

The experience that made me sit and write today was influenced because I shared a video of myself working on my sewing machine on Twitter.

Almost immediately after I began sewing my needle broke off the machine. Shut my whole operation down with the quickness in order to teach me a valuable lesson and reminder. 

((This is me obviously reading very deeply into everything because that’s how I learn energy and energetic lessons from the universe.))
It’s repetitive.
If you’re paying close attention you’ll start to understand the deeper meanings.

So anyways, as soon as I noticed the needle had broken, my first reaction was frustration/anger. Like why me? Why right now?
Why when I'm the most excited to dive into this sewing machine tonight?  Then directly after I start panicking and being grateful as hell while simultaneously scared because omfg, that could have broken off and landed in my eye or something? Then I thought, okay, maybe I should take a sewing class and get proper training. I googled if it suggested wearing eye protection while sewing and of course it is.  So maybe I need to learn safety and professional sewing tips. That couldn’t hurt because going and sharing my every move, especially in my beginning stage.

I start thanking God for my protection and thanking my angels and guides for protecting me and teaching me that lesson without hurting me.
I cried, I was so grateful I was protected and I wasn’t harmed.

A lot of times I see this play out in my life by sharing too much, sharing with the wrong people, and watching the energy shift or break due to negative energy being sent to it from “evil eyes”.

I turned around and saw police driving pass with their lights silently on and that was another sign from the universe that I am indeed protected, they got me, and to just pay attention next time. 

Be on alert and do better with this new knowledge.

Of course after the needle breaking, I also start overthinking and freaking out about the sharp part being somewhere that my little one can find later, or one of us stepping on etc.

I swept,
I cleaned up,
and looked all around… nothing.
I finally say “okay, I trust in this and that I'll find it when I’m supposed to” and I wipe my hands to “let go” and walk away and boom.

Right at that moment.
There it was.
The broken needle.


Every time I genuinely let go, whatever I was putting stress and worry energy into, arrives in divine time. You can’t fake energy. That’s why authenticity with self is so important on your healing journey.
