Cycles in Life
Wednesday, June 1, 2011 at 09:42PM Sometimes in life, things come to you when you least expect it... and it happens all the time. I talk about asking for a sign to show me that I am making the right decision in life. Holly and I talk things over and I trust what I hear and what I am feeling, but there is nothing like getting a sign from the universe too. This week on my Radio show I interviewed Gregg Braden who totally bridges the gap between science and spirituality and it's something that I have been interested in for years as my father is the skeptic and need science to prove many things.
Anyway, while I was reading his book Fractal Time, he was talking about the cycles that we have in life and that even though it's the end of the Mayan Calendar, it's just the end of a cycle in life. So while I was in the shower I was thinking about my life and the cycle that I am in now. I have always worked in 7's and that every 7 years there is a new cycle, and I didn't think it was true this time round. However I realize it is true. Things don't have to suddenly stop or change on one day or within a year... it can be that you have to close things down over a period of time... being the cycle. And my cycle has been 3 years.
I had a reading with a great Australian Psychic last year and she said that there would be an end of a era... a wiping the slate clean... and I kinda knew what she meant by it, but I didn't want to deal with it. Burying my head in the sand is something that I have been known to do but then I get a sign and it's all change for me. I had wiped the slate clean in so many ways, stripping away the things that I had taken on in my last life (so to speak) but I didn't do it totally...
I knew I had to complete the task... and finally I have had to take my head out of the sand, thanks to Holly and Charlie and having Gregg on my show was universe's way of reenforcing what I have felt for a while. Finally I have to finish and complete what I started. So when it comes to an end of an era, you don't have to complete everything in one day or year... its a cycle and that cycle can last a period of time. However there has to be an end. When the end comes new beginnings can happen and if you don't have the end, the new beginnings can't come.
You can't grow when you don't have room... almost like decluttering your room... or Charlie's room as the case was for me. So just know that time has to change sometimes and that you have to face things. Complete change doesn't have to come in one day but it can happen over a period of time... Seasons and reasons is how we often refer to it.
So, I know that I have to finish things up and make room for new growth... yes it's scary, yes it's exciting... but facing it has been the hardest thing and often in life... thats all you need to do is face it and then you can get your ducks in a row and start to plan. Here's to new beginnings!!
Sending love your way.

My husband died 8 months ago; we had been together for 42 years (since sophomores in high school) and were married for 37. I feel like I have come to an end of an era and don't know IF I can face the next cycle ahead of me. I feel so ALONE, scared, and at times completely overwhelmed. I have become somewhat reclusive and I don't know where to begin. Any ideas on how to start a "new beginning"?
Hi Lisa, it is so true that we do have to face up to changes and yes they can be scary but they also can be very exciting!
Since my husband's passing last october I have been trying to find my way , my new beggining and thanks to some very close friends and you I am on the right track. I saw you in Newcastle in March on the 9th ( which is my late dad's birthday) and have been encouraged by the way you have dealt with your life and changes . I like you am a Gemini and I'm all over the place but I also look ahead and try see what is right for me and that is what I am doing know, I am looking after me for the first time in my life and I'm hoping i will be as lucky as you and find someone new , like you found Holly. I too have decided to be true to myself and realise that I have always been drawn to women, so next time around this is what i will do!
I had a wonderful life (32 years) with my husband, he was my first boyfriend, and although we had tough times we did love each other inmensely and we had 3 beautiful children.I have lots of great memories of our life together and he will always be in my heart and a part of me.
Thankyou for your inspirational words and all the wonderful work you do and I can't wait till I see you and Holly at the Gold Coast in November, much love and peace Ana Maria
You and your blog were my sign, thanks lovely. Hugs Racca xxxx
Thanks, Lisa. I've been getting TONS of blatant signs, two to three times a day that overwhelminly remind me that I'm beginning an end, so that I can soon start a new beginning (that sounds confusing, lol!). May I ask how you came to figure out your particular cycle and how others can figure out theirs?
Many blessings and love,
Lydia
I might know what Vicki is going through, cause I had lost my husband 2 years ago.
Lisa I wish I was able to see/feel/hear things the way you do. I know I have to make changes but, I am "blocked" as they say. It's my own doing and I don't know how to "unblock" it. Most of it is fear of the "unknown" when it comes to being open to the other side and also of making the correct decisions along the way in life as we know it. If it was just me I wouldn't be so cautious but, I have family to think about so it's much harder.
I've been reading your newest book and it's helped me with coming to terms about death (rebirth..lol) and has allowed me to cope with my mother having cancer. Actually what you write about has always been my outlook on the afterlife and verified what I "knew" all along..if that makes sense? lol But it also gives me comfort as well to have some sort of verification that we don't just die and *poof* that's all she wrote!
Take care in your journey and I hope to see you back in the states soon I'd love to attend one of your shows again in PA!

Hello, first of all I want to send my DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO VICKI. I am so sorry to hear about your loss and I can imagine what you must be feeling. Know that he will always be in your heart and he will send you signs so you know that he is always around you.
Lisa, I want to know how you would know the beginning or end of your cycles. I too have always felt it was a 7 yr process but would like to know when the bad luck of the 7 yrs is over and a new will start????? Can I go back to the beginning of my life from what I can remember??
Love & Hugs, Judi :)
New beginnings are good. Hope all goes well as you finish and begin....
Greg Braden is great. Just attended a lecture by him in Toronto in May.
Interesting...the cycles.....this was the 2nd time I have heard Greg speak.
He makes a lot of sense.....
I love change, some days i feel i am waiting for it then BAM! it just comes, sometimes it very scarey and very exciting, I welcome change!
Hi Lisa.
bear with me when it comes to my english xD
I have a question I hope you can answer.
How do you know that the spirits you communicate with are the real spirit of a person, and not something else?
Another question: meny religions believes in the next life...and the next life may be painful or better then this life (hell vs. paradise), whats the connection between tthis and the spirits you communicate with ?
I see ur gift as a fantastic ability to really prove discussions which have been a problem for hundreds of year.. is that possible for you to work with or is ur gift limited?
Greetings from norway
from a curious fan of you whos watching ur show on norwegian tv righ now, fantastic job may i say
It is always about timing Lisa,
So it made me smile to read this blog, yes Cycles are always in the curve of our Life path... waiting for us to take action..
Sending you a bouquet of Maple Leafs

Hi Lisa - I was at your Sydney show and you wrote in my book "Stay strong". This has been true on so many levels - but mainly with positive results - including my changing cycles! Thanks!
PS I know who the message was from too: took me a while to work it out but a couple of well-placed songs gave it away.
Dear Lisa..
You blow me away.
Thanks God for giving us Lisa - this incredible woman.
Every time I read your blog I get moved in tears.
You know how to come into my heart every time.
My bedroom is a big mess with no control of the clutter that's in it..
I don't have the energy to clean and fix it anymore..
When I fix a little of it, I'm exhausted..
And before I am in medical shape to fix more much more mess has come and filled the space doubble up..
It has became a burden for me. Omg I have open myself up here..
But I hate cycles. I am so afraid of ending things that feel comforting.
Even though I do know that; "When God close one door to the light, he open a new one for better light"
Blessed Be Lisa
Hugs n Kisses.

De-cluttering the house is the only way to move on. I've been working at this for the past two years now, after the loss of my husband. I thought it was in preparation to physically move out of the house. It still could be that, but at the same time, overall it all makes sense to de-clutter my mind and move on emotionally to the next part of my life. To think clearly and focus on my next step, one step at a time.
Thank you LIsa

Sweet Lisa, I felt such an understanding with your words burying your head in the sand. I tend to do that hoping that things will clear on their own, without any work or doing on my part, but it's never seems to help LOL!. I am at a cycle of change or life too it seems, I am at a complete standstill in my life, not knowing what direction to go after having such a driven direction for the last 12 years. I feel lost and unsure of who I am and my place on this Earth, so I suppose that I am putting my head in the sand hoping that one day things will magically change and the greatest answers will come! LOL! Can you share some insights into how one can get their head out of the sand with bravery and not fear? I guess my greatest fear is that I have failed so many things in my life and I am running out of time, sorta speak as I'm not getting any younger! Hugs to you sweet Lisa...
Yes, yes, & yes! Thanks for the words of wisdom. I feel it too.
It makes so much sense to me. Just trying to hear/see the sign of my current cycle end that just seems to have been stagnent for soooo long. All good things are worth waithing for...So the saying goes.
It is so true, your blog and words often are in sycronisty with what is going on in my own life.... It us experience to often and impossible t
Absolutely love your blogs! And I have especially enjoyed reading the web transcripts. I am receiving so much information. By the way, I've been wearing Amethyst for a few years now and the word "believe" is my favorite word and can be seen all around my home long before I knew about you. I like your style. lol. I am looking around your site to see if I can find any live recorded shows. I record your tv shows weekly, then watch them when I get home from work. I really look forward to seeing you help so many many people. You are a precious gift to so many. Thank you for stepping out of your comfort zone; for having a web site; for your shows, for your blogs; for being real. I appreciate you so much!
