Mmmmm, hello. I am Nova, and it is such a blessed pleasure to connect with you here.
What a treat to have a fresh new space to grow big new dreams.
I'm not new to blogging, and I'm not new to sharing my life as a form of inspiring people to greater heights and expansion and depth in their own lives.
I am new to this space, though. How yummy.
I am excited to share whatever I feel called toward here. It feels like I will be sharing about divine guidance. How I find divine guidance. What my divine guidance is (in case it helps you, too). And how soul-deliciously it all plays out in my beautiful life.
My life is a sacred practice.
I am divinely led, and I strive to live every moment by following mystic callings, and it has created a life I never would have imagined.
I didn't always live this way.
I was raised in a sacred home, but the deeper fears concerning faith (or lack thereof) led me to identifying as a spiritual atheist. I studied world religions and philosophized about spirituality, but I didn't believe in anything, nothing moved below my brain, and my life wasn't a living prayer.
I lived a successfully practical life. I was a single mama with my own apartment on the coast of California, working full time and going to school full time - I was even an honor's student. It was an awesome accomplishment, especially considering where I came from. And then I met my son's dad, and I was still a single mama, but now I had a grown adult to guide into abundance, too.
I finished my BA the year I had my son, and I looked down at him, and the world fell away from us. I let my job of 7 years go and I let the masters program I had been accepted to go on without me.
All that mattered in the world was being with my baby boy. I couldn't do another child in daycare, more hours away from me than with me, the longing we both felt because we were made to be together.
The silence was deafening, and for the first time in a long time, I wasn't on a track for anything. There was just wide open space around me.
I asked his dad to step up, so I could stay home and revolve my life around being a mama. I found an online tribe of mamas who connected with my soul, helped me transform my parenting and values into something deeply authentic, and breathed believing in me under the wings of my endeavors. I took my 8-year-old daughter out of public school and started homeschooling her.
I asked my son's dad to leave. I soon found myself pregnant with 2 children and living in a homeless shelter. We got a house. I had an incredibly goddess-centered pregnancy and unassisted birth in a pool of water in my birth cave bathroom.
I took my job as a homemaker very seriously. We gave up our house and our housing for an RV and gypsy dreams. We wandered. We wondered. We really lived. I delved deep and dug out the ick and we found true bliss. We did some traveling. We connected with our greater tribe. We found possibilities and opportunities. We went through hell 2014 and came out in paradise 2014.
I have taken so many leaps of faith that I lost count. I defy limits. I make magic happen on the daily. I am a powerful manifestor.
I want to share this with you here.
I want to share the soft slow daily and the wilder big.
I want to step into my deeper calling as something shamanic. I want you to witness me.
I want to offer you gifts along the way. I want to offer you Another Way, or Affirmation along Your Way. I want to offer you my invitations to read for you and with you, and my creative pursuits in the land of e-products, like e-books and e-workbooks and e-courses. All that deliciousness that stirs your soul and rolls around in your life to make it glow.
I am ready to offer this to you. And I look forward to the learning journey of This Blog.
