Your Vision Is Too Big. Keep riding on it.

Or: How to make a soul's vision fit into a human body.
The world: "Aren't you afraid of your visions never coming true?" Me: "No. What truly scares me is a world that stops envisioning at all."
HEY BEAUTIFUL,
Visions augment our reality. They're daring the possible, knocking different cosmic doors, checking on where we're at as a species. What have we made possible so far?
Everyone rides on visions. But not everyone dares to stretch their visions beyond their own life bubble, beyond their own life time. That's okay.
Yet, I am especially passionate about those who DARE BIG. Those who long to "change the world", not just their own, but everyone's world and the world for those to come after them. Those who'd rather stop living than living while not creating towards transformation.
I'm passionate about them simply because I believe I'm here for such people, and because I'm one of them. ;)
If you're reading this, you most probably have a vision at heart ABOUT HOW THE WORLD COULD BE? A longing that doesn't stop pushing you towards creating transformation, healing, something new that's going beyond the vision of: what house to buy, which car to own and where to travel next.
Such visions can be charging. They can be activating for your daily creations. They can be driving you. And: they can be SO OVERWHELMING.
Justice for the world? No famine, no war? Healing patriarcy? Saving the Planet? Such visions are a matter of course for your soul. And: For the human you are they frequently lead into paralysis because: THE VISION FEELS TOO BIG TO HANDLE, the body too small to WEAR THAT DRESS!
Do you feel this?
First of all: That's okay. That's the beautifully messy part of being both, spirit and body. It's a gift and for some of us the biggest challenge ever!
But: You're here, so I guess, challenge accepted!;)
When I get stuck in such a paralyzed passiveness, this self-check-in always helps me out:
Transform the world by transforming your own:
Have you already seriously started to transform your own world?
It's a classic: Visionaries wanting to make BIG CHANGES while forgetting to start in their own every day world, their living spaces, relationships and habits.
It might seems "too small", "too irrelevant", but it actually needs a huge amount of humility, integrity and bravery to truly live the change. That's the only true way I know of GOING BIG. Why? Because anything else would lack integrity and thus sustainabiliy. It might be a big boom, a trend, that won't last. Because it lacks roots. It lacks being rooted in your life, body and being.
IT'S YOU who came around with that vision, BACK IT!
Don't get stuck in pictures: A little practice for you!
This happens to me ALL THE TIME! Let go of the specific picture of HOW your manifested vision is supposed to look like, WHO is part of it and WHAT exactly you're doing to get there. Always narrow down to THE ESSENCE OF IT, ride on it and allow new pictures to form. Your cosmic creative source is SO MUCH MORE CREATIVE than your mind can imagine. Your inner image is simply one possible translation of your vision's energy so that your mind and human can get the point;) See what new images, new ways, new shapes can come out of your vision, try out my INTUITIVE PRACTICE at the end of this letter!
Translate Your Vision: From your soul's language to a language your human can handle.
"I want to save the planet" might be an overwhelming vision for the human you are. And it's definitely a realistic one for the soul you are. Because your soul sees what's possible for you over life times, over generations, through the radiant impact of your frequency. It doesn't know about the concept of time.
Yet the human you are needs something relatable, something achievable in this life time or phase of life. So why don't you translate "I want to save the planet." into measures your human can embrace more easily? Like: "I want to leave the planet with more fertile soil than I found." or "I want to leave the planet with more people being aware of animal rights than I found." Those goals are big. They honour and spring from your soul's big plan. AND they are doable and achievable for the human you are.
Always remember: You're human. Powered by your soul.
Hold on and check in: You might already be there!
Not once have I found myself chasing a vision without realizing that it had already reached its realization. Maybe not in the image I had in mind (check point 2), but maybe even better, even more suiting for my life, a solution I had created without my conscious knowing. Here's a example: Some people wait for the perfect family picture to manifest until they realized they had created exactly what they were longing for, a feeling of family, but maybe outside their blood line, but with friends, community, maybe even animals.
Your vision is achievable, if you let it unfold in its own ways.
Your visions feeling too big is not a sign for you that you need to shrink them. PLEASE, DO NOT SHRINK YOUR VISIONS. Your visions feeling too big for you is a sign of you still expecting the human you are to create with the pace of your spirit. Your body needs more time. Earth needs time. Your body doesn't limit you, it allows you the sacred experience to create, grow and nourish something in an organic, sustainable way. One life at a time.
And one last thing I wish to remind you of:
Imagining is creating. Don't judge yourself for getting lost in your spirit's BIG visions. Those visions that you know might take a couple of life times to fulfill. Envision them. Feel them. Get lost in them. YOUR IMAGINATION IS PAVING THE PATH. It's setting the frequency right, you're tailoring the dress so that you and those after you can fill it with life.
So, please. Keep your visions high. Keep your vision big. Keep them focused yet stay flexible in imagining their shape. Be ready to transform your image but never let go of its essence. Your vision is so big, because you are. Your legacy is.
Thank you.
Today I'm gifting you with a practice that helps you staying true to your vision, while gaining flexibility and freedom with its way of materialization. A true game changer for each creative and visionary, I promise<3
Love, Jana
