43. Intermission

Back when I used to give readings, I noticed how often people booked sessions during a time I call “between the movies.” Each chapter of life can be like a film. Everyone is the cast, our surroundings are the set, and we’re the star. But, often at certain karmic junctures, one movie ends, and we wait impatiently for the next.

Sitting in the unknown.

Imagine you’re in a double feature. The first movie has ended, and there’s an intermission. You’ve gone to get popcorn, maybe a drink. You’re in the dark, contemplating all you just saw. Nothing to do but wait for the next show.

And sometimes our intuition even reveals the coming attractions.

I gave a reading once to a woman in a marriage she’d long known was dead. She was mustering strength to tell her husband of twenty years that she needed to go.

For the past year, she had experienced extreme shortness of breath. No medical tests showed any physical obstruction. Yet she felt more and more often as if the air were being squeezed out of her lungs by her life.

At the same time she kept having flashes of herself in a sun-filled studio with shiny wood floors, on her own.

When she called me, she was paralyzed by indecision and fear, overwhelmed by how to begin again. We talked about calling Divine Order into her life.

I suggested a prayer like, “Dear God, this entire partnership belongs to you now. If I am meant to stay, make it obvious. If I am meant to leave, open the way. Fill me with courage to take the right actions. Speak and act through me. Guide me to the new life that’s already waiting.”

A few months later, I spoke to her again. She had in fact left her husband with unexpected ease. He even agreed the marriage had ended long before.

Her new movie had begun. She was actually living in that small, sunny apartment with polished wood floors that she had “seen.” She could breathe again.

It was perched in a building above a store called Next Chapter.

Change me Divine Beloved into One who can offer all decisions to You, breathing and flowing with the unknown. May I trust during times of transition that the perfect actions will be shown. Grant me patience to allow events to line up as they need.
