If you are experiencing trauma in your life or an issue that is painful to you, the first thing you must do is step out of any victim consciousness you have acquired with the situation.  You simply cannot move into empowered change while embracing powerlessness.  Then, step back and look at your issue.  Ask yourself, what is my role in this?  How have I energetically contributed to this situation? What growth might I achieve through this?  Why would I have created this situation?  What are the gifts of moving through this experience?  You see, humans usually create trauma only after you have been ignoring the subtle bumps and nudges of your soul and your guides for quite some time. Trauma serves to get your attention.  It shakes you up and gets you to ask the bigger questions. The good news is, Dear Ones, that once you willingly start to embrace your growth and start to listen to the subtle guidance of your soul, you can begin to bloom and grow without needing trauma as the catalyst.  Further, once you have truly assimilated all of the experience, there is no need for your soul to create it again.  Once you understand these principles, you can start to move through you life experiences in a much more empowered way, and start to enjoy a smoother life expression. ~Archangel Gabriel
