I have posted a blog post called Travelling Together  on 11/11/25, and I thought I needed to write some further thoughts about this day, because it feels very meaningful today.

I attended a manifestation day on Sunday, facilitated by my Reiki teachers, Nic and Brooke. It was a powerful reminder about how guided we are. For example, we were asked to pick a small organza bag with an animal card and message in it. I often have an affinity towards owls, I believe they are spirit guides for me. I thought to myself, maybe I will choose an owl, and then thought that if I didn’t there would obviously be some other message that was meant for me and right at the time. Of course, out of the 25 face down cards to choose from, I chose an owl, and the message was pretty clear, that I need to take bold action on my dreams. It was a powerful reminder that I am guided and loved by the Universe. The goals that I have include building on the projects that align with my soul journey, such as this writing and sharing the journey, my Women’s Health Platform, GRRLFORGE, becoming digital nomads, working with our Horses, getting a dog, happy and healthy thriving children. The more I write, take steps and create, the more I see the path opening up in front of me. 

A challenging week

It has been a challenging week. My child has had some challenges. I’m putting it out to the universe that they will find their place. I’m here, and so are many who love him. I see he has an army of guides and angels behind him.

This has happened while I’ve been premenstrual and now menstrual, a low energy part of my cycle, so I’m extra tired. I’ve been grateful for the support around me, my parents, my friends, and my Love. It’s a challenge for me because I like to do things on my own, to make sure that I can do things on my own. However, the village is always there when I need it and I really appreciate it. So much.

There has been progress on the visa application, which is promising. And there have been times of light throughout the dark, and I am grateful.

We are now getting closer. The visa application we submitted in early August has been denied for the work side of it. After making a few modifications and providing some more documents to the Immigration, we have finally been granted a Visitor Visa, which will allow us to live together for a decent amount of time while we gather the missing pieces to fit into the partnership work visa. 

This is already a win for us, this journey is teaching us to receive, appreciate and be grateful for the small steps. 

I guess a part of what we are experiencing now is to work on the will to receive without having expectations and cultivate gratitude regardless. Without expectations, no frustration, right ? Easy to say, beautiful to read. For a human being incarnated in this life, what exercise to practice.. 

Wisdom teaching from the Universe is most certainly humbling. 

On a different note, we have booked our first trip together!
