What I am actually saying is that we need to be willing to let our intuition guide us, and then be willing to follow that guidance directly and fearlessly.
Shakti Gawain

The more we learn to operate in the world based on trust in our intuition, the stronger our channel will be and the more money we will have.
Shakti Gawain
Image
As long as we focus on the outside, there will always be that empty, hungry, lost place inside that needs to be filled.
Shakti Gawain
Image
Freedom and relationship are polar opposites - they both exist on the same continuum. You DO want a relationship - and you DO want freedom - what you really want is BALANCE, you want wholeness.

That has been my personal relationship with God-a connection with the powerful, loving, wise energy in all of us, in all creation. It is the life force itself. We can all have contact with it each moment in our lives, but it takes commitment and practice. We must be willing to move through all our deepest fears, doubts, and misunderstandings.

No scoundrel is so stupid as to not find a reason for his vile conduct.
Shakti Gawain
Image
When we consistently suppress and distrust our intuitive knowingness, looking instead for authority, validation, and approval from others, we give our personal power away.
Shakti Gawain
Image
Every creative genius has been a channel. Every masterwork has been created through the channeling process. Great works are not created by the personality alone. They arise from a deep inspiration on the universal level, and are then expressed and brought into form through the individual personality.
Shakti Gawain
Image
Your intuition will tell you where you need to go it will connect you with people you should meet it will guide you toward work that is meaningful for you - work that brings you joy, work that feels right for you.
Shakti Gawain
Image
A deadness occurs in relationships when people are no longer willing to tell each other how they really feel.
Shakti Gawain
Image
Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful
Shakti Gawain
Image
The universe will pay you to be yourself and do what you really love.
Shakti Gawain
Image
Very seldom do we receive any support for trusting ourselves, listening to our own sense of inner truth, and expressing ourselves in a direct and honest way.
Shakti Gawain
Image
Problems are messages.
Shakti Gawain
Image
When I wrote Living in the Light, I wanted to share about how I live my own life and to encourage people to tap into their own inner wisdom.
