Being Used By The Universe
Being used often has a negative connotation. As in “I was being used for them to get what they wanted from me” or “I was taken advantage of.” Yet knowing how to tell when you are being used for a greater purpose is important if you are to fulfill your purpose and role on the planet.
Being used by the universe is very different than being used in a relationship or for someone else’s career advancement for example. These types of being taken advantage of are steeped in personality desires.
Being used by the universe, however, is special. It always comes from the level of Soul in support of fulfilling a divine service to another. It’s humbling to think that one small action from you could set another Soul on an entirely new trajectory. Perhaps even placing them firmly on their Soul’s path.
I have long joked about “being used by the universe.” It used to be kind of annoying (I even resented it at times) until I realized this was part of bringing my Divine Purpose into the world through my Divine Coordinates. Now, it is a service I am honored to fulfill.
Am I Being Used?
Service or Sacrifice?
I had taken on an unconscious energetic signature of being taken advantage of. No wonder I felt for so long that my value lay in what I could “do” for someone else rather than in who I am. How exhausting! Houston, we have a pattern! Now before we go assuming that a pattern is wrong and bad, let’s go back to the start of this story with my Divine Contribution. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am here to Empower Truth through Authenticity and Possibility Recognizing Potential. It is what I am here for. And I can do that from a space of service or one of sacrifice.
Being used (sacrifice) and being of service are two sides of the same coin, opposite ends of the same spectrum (much like the spectrums of energy we work within Divine Navigation). It’s just that one is a high vibrational experience and the other… not so much. Let me be clear that no one “did” anything to me. I was an active participant and the one that had allowed this pattern to perpetuate in each and every situation. The actions and circumstances in service or sacrifice often appear similar if not identical, but the experience couldn’t be more different.
In the first scenario of service, I feel valued and valuable. In the second scenario of sacrifice, where I am Empowering someone else’s Truth (my north and south directional Divine Coordinates) and compromising my own Authenticity and Possibility (my west and east directional Divine Coordinates), I can end up feeling used and taken advantage of.
Left to their devices, your Divine Contribution as revealed through your Divine Coordinates can far too easily turn into sacrifice rather than service. Our Divine Coordinates help to illuminate the patterns that are running in the background of our lives. Those places where you think, “this again?!?!” Believe it or not, these patterns are also guideposts to your highest expression of service.
I invite you to be courageous enough to look at where you are sacrificing yourself in order to be of service or where you have taken on the false belief that your value lies in what you “do” rather than who you are. Your highest service and Divine Contribution can only be realized when you remember to also serve yourself.
Yes, your Divine Contribution will likely include ways that you will end up being used by the universe, but you will also always be served as well. This can only happen when you step into the fullest expression of you and make your Divine Contribution to the world.
