Hello, my name is Lydia and this is Align to Your Soul Purpose.
So what happened on the 8th of April 2024?
Hmm, well, a few things happened.
The one that's most obvious was the solar eclipse that we had.
And that's usually the new moon.
So the new moon normally indicates new energy coming in.
But what did it really mean? Why was it so hyped up?
It was just two weeks before that we had the lunar eclipse.
And no one was really talking about that one.
But you see, I'm a female so I do pay attention to the moon much more than I do any sun solar eclipse.
But they all affect us differently.
Right, so regardless whether it's solar or lunar, doesn't really match us so much to me.
What matters is the spiritual connotation.
What is it tied to? What does it mean to me?
As a spiritual being.
And this one was definitely spiritual.
Most people were expecting this monumental things to happen.
Usually whenever something is happening in the spiritual form, we get to see the real materialization of it.
So the manifestation of it comes in a bit later on.
Unless you have spiritual eyes to see the shift.
So between the lunar eclipse and the solar eclipse is about 14-15 days, usually 14.
And now we've gone over 15 days where we're feeling this energy of the solar eclipse quite strongly.
So what truly happened is this idea of the chosen ones.
And I say idea because it's quite a vast thing. It's not just to do with just being chosen.
There's many different ways that you can be chosen.
You know, just being selected is one way.
Being called is another.
A sense of purpose is another.
Right, and this all can be broken down into different archetypes.
Different ways of manifesting, different ways of appearing, different ways of consciousness.
Different ways.
So from what I've come to understand is this specific solar eclipse had a massive effect on our solar plexus.
And that's the third chakra.
We've got the root chakra, sacral chakra, and then we get to the solar plexus.
Yes, the solar plexus would be affected greatly because it's the solar, it's the connection to the sun, the provider of light.
So I'm not saying that the other chakras are not affected as much.
But that one, that's why people had some weird cravings, like wanting to eat some weird stuff.
You know, not enough rest or too much rest. You know, there's a slight imbalance for myself.
Oh my goodness, my sleeping patterns were completely altered.
And it's all right because I understand what was happening.
Sometimes you don't know what's happening until it happens.
But I'm one of those lucky people who kind of get it before it happens.
And even when I don't, my ancestors, my spirit guides get me on tune.
They're like, well, you better prepare.
Okay, so get ready.
So let's have a look and see what was happening prior to the solar eclipse, prior to the lunar eclipse.
What usually happens is this new trends come out, a new dance move comes out, a new diet comes out.
But the one that I got actually to understand about was the okra water, and that came out of nowhere.
I remember one of my Nigerian friends telling me that everyone in Nigeria has got this, it's on this trend.
They're all drinking okra water, you know, and things like that happen just before we get into the lunar and solar eclipse.
It's a preparation so that we can be able to receive the downloads.
So when you think about the downloads, it's basically just information.
If you think about it, whenever you're thinking of downloading something, it's told in form of data.
Or when you're wanting to upload something, it's told in form of data, and data is counted in bytes.
So if you think about it, bytes, that's B-Y-T-E-S.
But I'm talking about bytes, or bits.
Bites, what you're biting, what you're eating, what you're yamming into.
And I like to keep it quite humorous, I don't like to get too serious because when you do, you now step away from that sense of curiosity, that childlike nature.
So the okra water is something that just came out of nowhere, you know, I say out of nowhere, but there's people who've been doing or drinking okra water from eons of time.
But it became something that just became like at the finger of everyone's tips.
At the tongue, you know, everyone was just talking about it, everyone was just, I say everyone, but it didn't go worldwide.
This is specific people who got into it, you know, it's spread out in specific parts of the world.
Very specific, because if you think about it, Nigerians spread around the world.
And I'm not talking about Nigerians specifically, let me change that, I need to change that from being one nation to just being black people.
Because I'm not Nigerian, if you can hear my accent, I don't have an Nigerian accent, I'm actually from East Africa.
But I appreciate all millenian people, that's one thing for sure.
Like once you understand that this is a different kind of being, and that's why Africa is known as the motherland.
And regardless of what people want to say, there's a lot of things that have happened there, a lot of atrocities.
I'm not discounting anything that's happened elsewhere, I'm just talking about this specific continent.
And how certain trends recently, I would say things like Afro beats, Amapiano, different hair trends, different fashion trends.
They're coming out of this environment where things never used to be so popular.
You know, if you think about it, just about 10 years ago, which is around 2014, 2016, 2015, it goes far as 2012.
The idea of Africa wasn't about beauty, it wasn't as in the people who used to call African beautiful,
were people who appreciated Africanness.
But now it's become a trend that was actually made trendy by someone who's not African,
but they were able to admire that part of Africanness, right?
And I'm not even going to score so much into that, but this is known as the return.
It's the return of the original.
As we, well, I say we, that's making an assumption, but it is said that history repeats itself.
History is like a cycle. It goes round and round, bringing back the old into new and the new into old.
And that's why we've got trends that keep coming back around.
And then they stay for a while and then all of a sudden they're gone.
This is a specific trend that doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
We are returning to a sense of existence that took us away from the focal point of existence.
I hope I'm making sense there.
I'm channeling right now because it's a bit different from what I was expecting to talk about.
But heading back to solar plexus, the way I receive my information is through the crown
and then the way I interpret the information is through the other chakras or points of energy or vortices.
The way people talk about their portals, their doorways into other ways of existing or into other existences.
So for this specific one, it was about remembering who you truly are.
It was a glimpse of what you had made or what you had created before, how you existed before.
The way I looked at it, the way I received it actually, was a form of memory blast.
When something really bad happens and you block it out, you don't even remember anything or carrying.
Later on in your life, something happens where you get a glimpse into it and you're like, what was that?
That's when you start seeking, you know, counseling, therapy if you're wise, or you go and speak to your parents
or you speak to people who are around you at that time.
Just to see, to make sure that you're not crazy, but you know, that's what it was for me.
And I believe it was that same thing for a lot of others, especially people who class themselves as psychists,
psychics, mediums, shamans, prophetesses, prophets, high priestesses and priests,
people who delve into the spiritual realm with no inhibitions,
people who are completely and utterly open to truly receiving themselves for who they truly are.
They heard it. You might not like it. It's not always enjoyable when you talk about the spiritual aspect of a human being.
It's not about fun. It's about experiences and also understanding your true purpose, what you've come here to do,
what you're here for, and in what capacity.
Most of the time, solar eclipses and lunar eclipses are there to just remind us to get back in line, to get back in tone,
to get back in on our path, on our destiny, to align with what we truly believe in.
Well, not even believe. I don't even think it's about believing.
It's to align with what you truly know down to your core, down to your soul level.
It's not about what you like, what you need, what you think is the right thing.
You know, not the societal expectation, not even personal expectation or familial expectations.
This is about your innate being, deep down into your core. Who's there?
What's that awareness that says, this is my body, this is my hand, this is my leg, this is my car, this is my house?
Because before you owned it, you still existed and then you ended up owning it. It's like your hand.
You can have your hand with you and then you can lose it. But you have the idea of saying it's mine.
So it's that part of you that's able to be the observer and the experience, the one who experiences, the one who desires to experience.
There's that part of you that knows, it's fully aware.
Now you see, most of us have been programmed out of that.
And I'd say not necessarily programmed out of it, but kind of taught not to understand it.
Programmed into other things. So for example, like myself, I was taught, I was brought up in Christianity.
So I was taught about God being the maker of everything, the creator of everything, the head and everything, the omega and alpha.
Every single thing is God. If you're well, it's God. If you're not well, it's God.
Or you're suffering because you've made a mistake or you're a sinner and you've got to repent.
So there's a lot of these things that I was taught. But when I come down to it and understand who I truly am,
and to be honest, I don't think I can grasp fully who I am because every day I'm learning something new,
as long as I'm allowing myself to learn something new and not stepping into my own way or stopping myself, like jeopardizing myself
and constantly sabotaging my own destiny and my own purpose here on earth,
allowing myself to grow within the boundaries of my soul, the journey that is chosen to come and experience here.
It reminds me of who I am, what I am, who I've always been, who I always shall be.
Not this material aspect of me, not this avatar that I'm using to survive here on earth to experience the things through the five senses that we have
and through the seven chakras. It's bigger than that.
This specific solar eclipse reminded me that I'm not just a chosen one, just like a lot of you out there,
but I am whom I am.
And it's not about questioning things, it's about allowing myself to be with no judgment, no expectations, no attachments,
appreciating each and every experience with a good or bad, understanding that what I know very little, very little compared to what I'm yet to find out,
but it's about using that information that I already have, that sense of curiosity, that sense of wonderment, to allow that to be my driving force to move forward.
Just like all of you, anyone who's listened to this, you know what I mean.
You know.
It's nothing to do with this idea of what is expected of you, how trendy things are, or, you know, these are things that come very fast and go very fast.
You know, it's the trendy, the viral moment, you know, something appears and then it's gone.
I was watching a video the other day of a lady who was trying to look at the way we've evolved with the way we shape our eyebrows.
I don't shape mine, I don't shape mine. I just like them the way they are.
I don't try to manipulate anything on my face because I like it just as it is, you know, I'm not trying to fit in, I'm not trying to be trendy,
because that's temporary.
And she was talking about how it went from being very thin in the 90s, and then it changed a little bit in the early 2000s,
and then it changed over and over and over again.
And it's still changing.
It's called evolving.
We get, we view life differently every single time there's a change, and I would go as fast as say, it is controlled by the moon.
Have a look and see whenever something trendy has happened, just look at where, which position the moon is at.
It is astrological.
It is to do with the changes in the heavens.
We call it the heavens, but it's basically the universe, and it's what's available to us right here.
So what I would urge you to do, take time.
It must take time. It doesn't have to be 20 minutes of half an hour or two hours. No.
Five seconds is all that it takes. Just take a few deep breaths for yourself, and just go,
I am appreciative of life as it is, and I'm ready to take on whatever comes my way.
Good, bad, ugly, pretty, all of it.
I am ready.
And don't be afraid.
Because when you claim that, what you're doing is you're actually paving a path for yourself to be what you truly are.
Not being afraid of the consequences because they were going to happen, and it's inevitable.
The thing is, you can either choose to experience it in this lifetime, or in the next, whether you like it or not, your soul desires that.
So the best thing is to approach life with the least resistance.
I need to let you know this, that there's people who are not going to be able to go along with you in the new path.
There's people who are not going to be able to make it across the threshold.
There's some who are going to judge you for your decision. There's some who are going to feel very hot.
There's some who are going to be very jealous.
And it's okay. Let them feel what they feel.
The thing that I always talk about is the idea of don't try and control your emotions, control your breath.
The one thing that if you stop it, you're gone.
But you can change how you breathe.
You can change how you receive.
You can change how you choose to express yourself.
Once you start breathing, that's what I say, take a few deep breaths.
Because it helps you to just be in this state of receiving.
You're no longer rushing.
You're no longer in fear.
When anyone who's taking deep breaths is definitely not in fear.
Deep breaths is about controlling the fear away, getting the fear away.
So I'm not saying do not be afraid. I'm saying when you are afraid, deep breaths.
And things will just become more clear.
And the more you do it, the more you realize that, oh yeah, this is an answer to the question that I had before.
And follow your intuition.
You know, come on, you know, you do know the right thing to do.
Every single person knows.
But there's always this sense of expectation and obligation that we have set for ourselves that are just irrational, illogical.
They do not make sense, especially for you.
The thing that separates you from others, the things that makes you feel so different from others.
You're not meant to walk the same path as you do.
A yes to you is a no to them.
Okay?
Don't fight it.
Receive it.
Something that's positive for you might be very negative for them, or something that's very negative to you might be very positive for them.
That's why I said, be prepared for people to live your life.
Because when the people who live your life live, it makes room for the right people to come right in.
That's why I advocate to the idea of do not be afraid.
It's not a fearful journey. It's an exciting journey.
I'm so excited for what's to come.
And this is what took place.
So getting back to the solar eclipse, what happened this week?
On the 8th of April, we had this massive shift.
What happened?
Apart from just it being a memory thing, it was about us reconciling with ourselves.
It's like getting back to that point where you feel very much ready.
Ready to take action.
Ready to do something about it.
Apart from it being a new moon, it has this massive boost of new moon energy with the solar eclipse.
Wow!
Push!
Massive push.
That idea that's on your mind, get on and do it.
That thing that you've been wanting to do for the past four years, I said four years.
Yeah, the pandemic was a massive push. You know what I mean. Whoever's listening to this, you know what I mean.
2020 was like the first time when you felt like you had just moved into a new body.
Because it's called the rebirth.
Death and rebirth. You've been reborn.
Here we go again.
The ride into this new venture, it has started.
It's time for you to take it yourself very seriously in a fun way, obviously.
When I say seriously, I mean make a plan.
Make it happen. Or if you're not someone who likes planning, then don't plan. Just do it.
Do some things spontaneously. Just go, okay, today you know what, I'm just going to take this chance.
Go ahead and do it.
Thing is, when you don't do it, you do some kind of disservice to yourself.
And I don't want to focus so much on that because I've been there where you don't take action.
You hold back. You don't feel like it's the right thing to do. What do people think?
What do I think of myself? Will I be able to hold this off?
Because then it's great it's happened today and then what about tomorrow?
Am I still going to be the same person tomorrow?
You know, there's all these questions. There's all these things.
Yeah, tomorrow will deal with itself when it gets there.
Today is what you've got. Take that chance. You won't regret it. I promise you, you won't regret it.
What you will feel is you'll wake up tomorrow and you'll pick up from where you left off and carry on.
Is it scary? Heck yeah.
It is supposed to be scary because it's a proper, proper thing. It's the thing that you've desired most of your life.
It's the thing that you knew deep within yourself is possible. Now you're doing it.
So what I suggest is trust yourself.
Love yourself enough to trust yourself. Trust that you're not making a mistake.
Because I've not told you anything new on this. The only thing that I've mentioned that's new could be just the boost that you've got from this.
So like clips, everything else was already there.
All I'm doing is just confirming what it is that you already know.
Write that book. Get on that podcast. Get on that YouTube.
Write that song. Paint that painting. You know, go and get them herbs.
Go and get yourself a guitar. Just take the first step. That's all.
And then we'll move on to the next step next time.
Everyone who's listening to this, I've just prayed for you.
I've prayed the right word to use. But yeah, what I've done is I've communicated to my higher self, to my spirit guides,
to just support you in every single way, to speak to your spirit guide and to your angels, to your ancestors, to your higher self.
Just encourage you to make you feel that sense of strength.
I'm going to say just.
I'm trying to make it as soft as possible, as tender as possible.
I'm going to nudge here and nudge there.
I'd say if you're the kind of person who likes to go into nature, watch out for them birds.
Watch out for them feathers. Watch out for them leaves. Watch out.
Because when you see it, just know it's a confirmation.
And if anything that I'm saying right now does not resonate with anything that's going on in your life,
then carry on as if nothing happened.
But if I have said something here that touches one way or the other in some kind of way,
you know what I mean. You've been waiting for this.
Do you know how many times I've been saying, if someone else says this, then I'll do it.
If someone else says this, then I'll do it.
Well, here you go. I'm saying it.
Lydia is saying it.
So get on and do it.
You know what? You're loved. You're loved greatly.
As in, you might not feel it. You might not see it. You might not hear it.
But here you go. The love shines all over you.
Whether it's by people that you see, people that you love, people that you care about,
people that you don't care about, it don't matter. Love is there.
And this message is full of love. Because everything I've said right now,
it could sound like tough love. I don't really care. It's love.
Come back and walk away through this journey.
If you won't, obviously, it would be great to have you along.
Because I'm also taking that step. I'm taking my own advice and doing it too.
It's not easy. It's not meant to be easy. It's meant to be enjoyable.
Everything that's enjoyable is easy. You know, you just need to find that thing that just works for you.
Something that just makes you feel, that's amazing.
That sense of relief, weight off your shoulders.
This is just great. I'm really grateful for you.
I wish you all the best. I don't think I wish you all the best.
I'm glad you listened and you took action. Yeah, that's in future tense.
Future past tense, I think.
It's beautiful regardless because you took your time, you listened to this,
and now it's time to take action. So yeah, next time we talk, it's going to be about that action that you took.
Next time we talk, next time we listen and I talk, it's going to be about that action that you took
and how amazing it feels now that you've done it.
Thank you for listening.
