Jennifer Hoffman – Q&A: Why Can’t I Make this Decision?
Dear Jennifer: I’m faced with an important decision that I need to make soon and I do not know what to do. Is this the best time to make decisions, because of the shifting energies, is there a better time or should I wait? Is this why I feel so confused or is there another reason?
Jennifer’s Answer: Any time is a good time to make a decision, as long as you have enough information and feel comfortable with what you are doing. When the energy is very strong, as it is now, it can make decisions feel overwhelming but that happens because of what the energy does for you, not the energy itself. As we are shifting and opening ourselves to new potentials decisions harder because you are viewing them from a new perspective and you almost have too much information in the form of many more choices to consider, although it can feel like you do not have enough.
You may have made this kind of decision, in the past, very easily without thinking too much about it. And if the results were not very beneficial to you, you may also have just brushed that aside and thought that this was normal. But with the new movement of energies, doing things your usual way is no longer possible and when new potentials are available, you have new options to consider in how you make your choices and to put yourself, your needs and the results you want into the decision.
And these new energies are pushing us out of our habits of suffering, being martyrs, saviors, victims and healers. Have you been any of those things with others? Do your past decisions reflect what is best for you or do you try to meet everyone else’s needs and then make that as your choice? This new way of choosing and making decisions suggests that we put ourselves first, and if we are not comfortable with that, then the choice becomes very difficult. From an expanded and more powerful perspective, you can consider all of the choices, pick the ones you are most comfortable with and the outcome you know is best and right for you, then the decision becomes clear. Also consider that you may decide that with the choices that you have at this moment, the decision is not right for you, and you will make it at another time, when you have more and better choices.
