Empty your basket - Moving house in the Vortex

My husband and I have a beautiful home. Its cosy, quiet, well connected and has a great view. The house has excellent energy but somehow I suspect that the energy comes from us being there.

I rent - so its time for us to shift to a new place. Now, anybody who has moved houses knows the enormity of the situation. There are two big tasks - 1) House hunting 2) the Packing and Moving.

I was determined to make this a happy move and wanted to move in the Vortex. And honestly I wasn't quiet there yet.

To begin with, my husband and I set an intention that we would find a house that we would love, without having to compromise on budget, location and facilities. 

We must have seen a total on 14 homes. The one we are moving into was the 4th house we saw and here is the full story.

I remember walking into the lobby of the building and my husband saying to me, I love the FEEL of this place, I love it. When we went into the apartment it was a different story, the current tenants were at home, the house felt heavy and dull. We left and continued our search. 

Something kept tugging our attention back to that particular house. So we requested to see it again sans the tenants. 

A few days later when we walked into that apartment, I could swear it was a different home. It felt bright, beautiful, cosy... promising. It was well connected yet in a quiet corner, fit our budget and timeline for our move.

Perfect!

What a difference it made without the other folks being there and I am glad we listened to that 'tug' and went back. I have no doubt that my husband and I will carry the same energy to our new found paradise!

Now I am more determined to pack and move in the Vortex. I look at packing the house as a chance to 'clean out' all the unnecessary things. I plan to leave behind 1/3rd of the stuff we currently have. Mostly clothes, kitchen stuff and other knick knacks that have collected over the years. 

I already feel a sense of relief and lightness. I love the idea of 'emptying my basket' and that too in time for the New Year!  I know the Universe will send good things to fill the space I create now.  

What a fun way to start the New Year!

Maybe you aren't moving houses but it's not a bad idea to do some 'emptying your basket' exercise. So join me 'virtually' to make space for new things to flow in.
