The Divine Reset
A Spiritual Recalibration
This morning as I contemplated this week’s chat, I heard the words: Divine Reset.
As I have attempted three times to create this chat, my computer has glitched and everything I wrote disappeared, so hopefully by the time you actually get to read it, I will have perfected what Spirit wants to say.
What an example of a Divine Reset. I start typing and when I am feeling really good about it: glitch! and it all goes away.
That is what this year has felt like for me!
How about you?
In January, collectively as the family of humanity we entered into a ‘1’ year in numerology. Every nine years we have some form of a reset. The number 1, being the first number of 9 before we repeat them over and over into infinity, each cycle growing upon what we experienced in the last cycle, and then repeating if we didn’t shift how we were doing things.
The last reset according to numerology was 2017. That year, we in the U.S. inaugurated a new president, and we are still in the aftermath of that decision. For me personally, my husband and I sold our house and moved into the house where we currently reside. Life changed significantly when we moved.
Prior to that, before we decided to move, a couple of things happened. I was seeing clients in my home, however, the house was small, and the room that I had set apart to see clients also substituted as the guest bedroom and the grandkids room when they visited. I was constantly shifting furniture in and out depending on the circumstances.
I decided to begin to manifest a change. I created a statement that went something like this: “I enjoy a space that is designated for my spiritual work. I enjoy a home that is surrounded by nature but close to town for easy access to conveniences and not to far for clients to travel to see me.”
The problem was, my husband had said that he had no plans to ever move again.
There was no arguing. I just said my statement. I left the details up to the universe.
Then some neighbors moved in next door who I would have preferred not to have living beside me. I had previously been successful in manifesting pleasant, law-abiding, and energetically friendly neighbors, but when they moved in, I could almost hear the spirits who moved in with them laughing at me.
I wondered why what I had always done in the past stopped working!
As it turns out, sometimes Spirit has to motivate us to make changes when we are a bit hesitant to do it ourselves. It seems my statement about manifesting a new home and manifesting law-abiding, pleasant neighbors at the house I was releasing were not mutually compatible.
Some family dynamics shifted. Within a few months, hubby was on board with moving. There was no house hunting. The home we now own was previously owned by my stepson. Our home sold three days after we put it on the market and we have now been in our current home for nine years. I have a room designated for my spiritual work. There is nature all around. We are only ten minutes from town, depending on traffic lights and traffic.
I have written many times about how you can shift circumstances in your favor using your intentions and words because you are the one in charge of your life! I have many examples of how this has worked in my life, described in my books, previous posts and to my individual clients.
But when the universe is conspiring in your favor, or your higher self is going through some sort of reset, you may find that your normal spiritual tools stop working.
So far this year, I have found that some of my normal tools have seemed to stop working. I haven’t yet figured out what is in store, but given my previous story, I know that something is shifting. As I wrote in my post describing 2026, in ‘1’ years, we begin a new cycle.
You can read what I wrote back in January about what the year may hold here.
As I reread my post before adding a link, I am beginning to remember the things that transpired around the end of 2025 and into the beginning of 2026. A traumatic family experience definitely flavored what I wrote. It does sound a bit salty compared to my usual style, so when you reread this post, remember that!
Here we are in mid-April! Back in January, I was sure that by April things would be much better. Each time there was some sort of astrological event which was supposed to shift our experience of life, I would breathe a sigh of relief, only to feel disappointed a day or two later when it felt like nothing changed.
Last week, we had a slew of planets in Aries and an Aries new moon. Lots of hope for a new beginning. New moons are our opportunity to start over every 28 days. Aries is the first sign in the zodiac. Surely the reset will take and we will begin to gain momentum.
I am happy to report that last week did feel better for me personally, but certain aspects of life have not changed. I am hanging on to the hope that soon, very soon, forward momentum will kick in.
What happens when you go through a Divine Reset?
I surely like this term better than ‘dark night of the soul.’
But truthfully, sometimes I feel like the latter may describe it better.
Everything you believed or hoped or thought or experienced comes under a review.
What has worked in the past stops working.
Your familiar ways of receiving guidance feels off or you misinterpret your signs.
You struggle with things that used to be easy.
You rethink your goals, dreams, aspirations, or visions.
You begin to wonder if your Guides, Angels, or whoever you talk to have gone on vacation.
You begin to run into evidence that some or all of what you have believed may be flawed.
Do any of these suggestions speak to you?
If so, congratulations! You are experiencing a Divine Reset!
What Spirit is telling me is that in the past, Divine Resets happened more on a smaller scale. Yes, people would report going through these things, but now, almost everyone is going through some form of it!
The good news is, after the reset is complete, those of us who have been experiencing a spiritual reset will feel a little more connected, a little more awake and aware, and we will begin to see through the facades and illusions that have dictated to us how we navigated our Earth experience. When the veil lifts, we will begin to see the truth. And the truth will set us free.
Last week I shared how one of my client’s Angels offered her a message which I thought was so profound and inspirational I shared it with all of you.
Her Angel said, “Are you going to focus on the problems or the possibilities? Are you going to focus on the mountains or on the miracles?”
HERE is a link to that post.
Yes. Maybe we are all going through some sort of Divine Reset.
Maybe some of us are beginning to come back online. Others will follow when their process is complete.
When we have upgrades or updates to our phones and computers, they normally have to be rebooted and then everything starts back up and some of the internal programs have been changed. Old programs are removed and new ones are installed.
Think of your Earth experience and your soul at this moment in time as going through an upgrade. Sometimes we get really attached to our old programs. When our phones get an update, sometimes we don’t like the changes! Sometimes I have been known to say, “Why did they have to change this? There was nothing wrong with the way it was working before! Now I have to relearn how to do this!”
Collectively we are relearning the internal programs that are being shifted. Our life is being shifted in so many different ways. The way we look at life has to change!
We can’t just believe what we are told anymore. Anytime I read something, on social media or otherwise, I have to wonder if this is AI generated content, if it is true, or some made up story.
It is time for us to take charge of our own internal programs. Ask yourself if something you have always believed still rings true for you, or if you may need to uninstall an old program that has been running the show for far too long.
I believe that those of us who have been walking a spiritual path for a long time are having our job titles change. Our roles within the spiritual framework are changing. This may feel uncomfortable.
In the collective, we are all having to rethink how we live our lives. We may have to drive our cars less or eat different foods. Our forms of exercise, entertainment, and community may be undergoing a change.
Rest in the knowledge that it will all end up okay!
Our consciousness is undergoing an upgrade. We will think about things in a different way. We may be able to see through untruths or inauthentic leaders who we once admired. We may find ourselves questioning certain aspects of life we used to accept readily. We may decide to move, end relationships that are not feeding our souls, quit or change jobs, or see ourselves and our community in a different way.
When we are undergoing major life shifts like this, we may not come back online right away. Give yourself time to normalize. Don’t feel like you are falling behind if others are reporting that they are feeling better and you are not. You don’t have to follow a timeline that everyone seems to be navigating toward.
Breathe. Rest. Relax.
If you feel energized, then move forward. When you feel exhausted, rest.
I hate to keep moving forward a date when I am hopeful the shift will be complete. Some spiritual communicators are saying the shift is complete now. I have not felt this, but I am happy some are feeling complete already. Some days it feels like I can walk five miles followed by hours of yardwork, and then some days I want to sit on the couch with my hot tea and my warm robe and watch mindless feel-good movies. Most days are somewhere in the middle of that polarity.
Here in Virginia, last week we enjoyed unseasonably warm days. A couple of days ago, I had to grab all of the flowers and plants I had worked so hard on last week and carry them into the garage because the temperature dipped below freezing.
So yes. Sometimes when you have a week or so of warm weather, you may forget it is only April and there still may be some cold days and nights, and maybe even a freeze.
That is also what we are navigating spiritually. Some days we feel really good and connected and hopeful, and then there are a couple of days of exhaustion and wanting to stay in bed.
Keep focusing on the possibilities. Keep asking yourself what programs are not working and what or who you need to release with love. If you are feeling energized and hopeful, reach out your hand of kindness or a word of encouragement to someone who is struggling.
Trust the Universe.
Everything happens in perfect timing, exactly how and when it is supposed to.
Focus on Divine Love.
When you are offered an opportunity to be of service to others, do it.
Often, we feel better when we help someone else feel better.
I do believe that this particular Divine Reset is about complete. For some, it is already. For others, it will be soon.
There will be others.
There will be starts, stops, and resets.
Some days your internal computer will glitch and you will lose everything you have been working on. You will have no choice but to start over.
The next version will be better anyway, so don’t fret it.
I want to end this chat with two dreams I had within the past couple of nights.
In the first dream, I had a tiny baby in my hand. It was so small it fit inside of my hand. It was struggling to live. I had it keep it warm and protect it. I had to feed it differently than I would a normal sized infant. Once, someone sneezed and their germs almost killed it. But I cleaned it up (I am saying ‘it’ because I can’t say male or female). I kept doing what I was doing until the dream ended. The dream did not end with the infant surviving or not. The outcome was undetermined.
I believe that we as lightworkers are caring for an infant that is trying to survive. The timing may have been a little premature (or a lot). We do the best we do. The outcome is not yet determined.
In the second dream, I was in a large house and my loved ones had planned a surprise birthday party for me upstairs. One of my grandchildren asked to me to cover my eyes as they led me up the stairs. As I topped the stairs, everyone yelled, “surprise!” I looked around and saw many people who I had seen during my lifetime. Some I barely knew or recognized. Some were familiar. I tried quickly to greet each person individually and thank them for their presence in my life but some left before I reached them. I woke up feeling happy, but a little sad that I had not made it to some of the people to let them know that their life and their presence in my life mattered.
I would suggest to you that every day, you greet each person with love and gratitude. Thank them for their presence in your life. Let them know how important they are to you. Don’t get distracted by all the things that attempt to steal your time, your energy, and your focus.
We don’t know how much time we have left on this planet. No one is guaranteed tomorrow.
Do the best you can.
Love deeply.
Release judgements, regrets, and efforts at things that are no longer worthy of your attention.
If someone throws accusations or judgements or anger your way, politely decline. Don’t catch the anger and throw it back. Tossing anger back and forth solves nothing.
Navigate the changes in your life in the best way you can. You will have good days and some that are not so good. Be easy on yourself.
Do the stuff you need to do.
If you feel that you have been navigating a Divine reset, the key to a successful upgrade is to lean into it. Don’t resist. Don’t try to hold onto what is going away or changing. Your higher self, or your Divine Wisdom is navigating these unfamiliar waters. Rest in the understanding that you are a Divine being having an Earth experience. If you are still breathing, the game is not over yet.
