As you enter into springtime, it’s time to plant your new ‘seeds’. It is also a time to tend to the ‘weeds’, which can get in your way. Within a garden, just like within you, weeds grow amongst your flowers and plants.
Weeds can take over and even choke the life out of the garden you’ve planted. Weed growth can run rampant, which will hinder you from bringing your garden to full fruition. The ‘weeds’ for you to attend to are those that are out of energetic alignment with the ‘seeds’ you have planted.
Your ‘seeds’ are the intentions, goals, and dreams you have claimed for your Self … it is what’s possible for YOU!
The ‘weeds’ can be outdated belief systems, negative self-talk and ‘stinkin thinkin’, pain from the past, and wounded feelings, such as anger, disappointment, guilt, shame, sadness, and/or depression. None of which help you to water your garden, nor help you flourish.
Think of it like this … the ‘weeds’ are the 3rd Dimension vibrations, which are based on fear, survival, and the past. And, the ‘seeds’ are your 5th Dimension opportunities and SOUL-Aligned possibilities sprouted from love, joy, and living in the present moment. It’s vital to pull out the ‘weeds’, so your garden can come into full bloom, and be beautiful and vibrant!
So, it becomes a Conscious Choice … either stay where you are and hold onto the vibrations of the past and be a ‘victim’ to it, OR to resolve and heal the past, so you can move on and play in the vibrations of your new beginnings.
This is a perfect metaphor for tending your ‘inner’ gardens and creating beauty on the inside as well as on the outside of you. It’s imperative to pluck those ‘weeds’ of negative and discordant thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and perceptions, which get in the way of bringing forth that which you desire to manifest in your life.
What’s the state of your inner garden? Are the inner ‘seeds’ that you are planting full of High vibrations, inspirations, and SOUL-Aligned Possibilities? What are your ‘seeds’ – the intentions and goals that you are setting in motion by planting them within your heart and mind? Will they be able to emerge and vibrate out into the world from you, and grow into hearty, healthy plants with lots of buds and blooms?
Or, is your inner garden overrun with ‘weeds’ of incongruency and, negative or stuck thoughts, feelings, and beliefs, which are thwarting your growth and ability to manifest what you want in your life, relationships, and business? Are these ‘weeds’ so entangled that you don’t know where they begin or end? Are you living in the land of ‘shoulds’, which are based on the past, limitations, and the need for power and control?
Or, are you Consciously Choosing to live in the vibrations of ‘could’, which are the opportunities and potential at your Highest Level and that of your Soul’s Essence, rather than the wounded egoic Self.
Think about it. If your ‘weeds’ are issues such as co-dependency (which does ‘run’ most people on some level), then most likely the co-dependent behaviors are overpowering and strangling your garden. They choke the expression of who you Truly are and what you would really like to say, feel, or do. Your ‘weeds’ could be the past stories that you keep bringing forward such as abandonment, or what someone did or didn’t do? Perhaps there was a difficult time in your life, which created pain for you? Or, maybe there was a time in which you felt you made a “wrong” decision, “failed” at something, or things didn’t work out like you thought (or expected) they would?
It is always a choice to live and create from the past and let it ‘run’ you. Or, you can Consciously Choose to learn from it, heal from it, and grow from it, so you can move forward. The past gives you opportunities and gifts to realize the contrast of what you want and don’t want, what you like and don’t like, AND what works for you and what doesn’t.
The past does not need to be the story you keep retelling, reliving, and recreating. Again, a Conscious Choice. Let the past be a reference point, not a way a ‘BE’-ing, but a way of co-creating your present and future success in your relationships and life within a new story. Use the past to help you discern what’s True for you in the present moment by tapping into the wisdom you’ve gained, after you’ve healed and completed the energetic cycle from the past.
Here are some co-dependent tendencies to consider if they ‘run’ you. Do you …
- People please?
- Tell people what you think they want to hear?
- Make sure everyone else is happy, regardless of what you want?
- Always try to figure out how someone will react to what you say or do?
- Table what you’re feeling because you’re afraid of how others will respond?
- Justify or try to defend your ‘position’ or your actions?
- Try to prove you are worthy, deserving, enough, good enough, and loveable?
- Withhold because you have a fear of love, vulnerability, or intimacy?
- Shut down out of the fear of being hurt again, or not being accepted and loved?
- Have the need for others to like, love, accept, and approve of you?
- Gather evidence from the past, so you can be ‘right’ about how you feel?
- Have the need for others to understand you, and what you say, feel, and do?
- Over give, over do, over compensate, or are over responsible and over [you fill in the blank]?
How many times have you stopped your Self from going for what you REALLY wanted? How many times do you let other people’s opinions count more than your own? How many times to you live someone else’s life, rather than your own?
All of these tendencies are ‘weeds’ in your garden. Not to mention the judgments, beat-up, regrets, resentments and anger you inflict upon your Self or others, due to the shoulda’s, woulda’s, coulda’s, and ‘what ifs’.
If you live in the past, or worry about the future, then you can’t be present in the moment. When you’re not present in the moment, the weeds can grow like wildfire.

I actually love to garden, even in the beginning when it seems like there are only weeds. I pull them with a deliberate intention to completely eradicate them from my garden … from my mind, heart, and spirit. I make sure I pull them from the root, so they don’t have the chance to regrow and resurface.
Imagine it as though you are digging around and discover the root cause of your pain, your wounds, and your issues. Where is the Core Origination point? Where did it begin to infiltrate deep down within you … into your subconscious, and into your cellular memory, then spill over into your behaviors, habits, and actions?
When you approach your inner garden with awareness, discovery, and healing, then you can let go of AND resolve the past, once and for all!
I love observing the results … how the flowers begin to thrive and come into full bloom, dance in the light of the sun and lift their little faces to drink it in. I love the feeling of joy and the inspiration it brings me!
It’s also how great I feel, when my own inner ‘weeds’ are pulled and gone forever. I feel the freedom to live and thrive again, so my inner AND outer garden can grow and blossom!
There is room to breathe and allow my Self to expand into my brilliance and beauty … to ‘BE’ my True Self, and to create from my True ‘BE’-ingness, which is LOVE … Living Only Vibrant Energy. Thus, my outer gardens also thrive and my goals, dreams, and visions come to fruition very quickly.
As a reminder, co-dependency, or any other issues of the past can limit, block, or stop you, are based in fear. Your ‘weeds’ will Find Evidence that Appears Real.
They will be your old ‘stories’. They will be the critics, naysayers, doubters within you, that will try to keep you (supposedly) protected. Your fears will try to convince you to stay with what you know and what’s familiar, even if it’s painful and uncomfortable. They will be the ones that will argue for your limitations and try to have you accept your perceived limitations. They will continuously debate all sides of the coin to keep you confused from making decisions and from moving onward.
OR, you can Consciously Choose to utilize FEAR as Focus Energies to Alter Results. When you approach your past, your co-dependency, and your issues in this way, there is an opportunity to learn, heal, and grow your inner garden. This then affects the manifestations of your outer garden … all of aspects of your life, including your health and well-being, your relationships, your finances, your vocation, and much, much more!
So are you ready to pull your ‘weeds’? Are you ready to build a beautiful, vibrant garden within you, so that your life, your relationships, your purpose, your passion, and your contribution can grow, prosper, and radiate your brilliance out to the world? Your SOUL is ready!
