Dream big when you want to transform your life

The butterfly metamorphosis is a beautiful process of transformation. This same process can be found in our lives when we go through life transformations with all its steps. So, wherever you are in your life transformation process, it is helpful to understand the journey. I wish I had this knowledge when I was going through my biggest life transformation, so I want to help you out and share this with you now. Let’s start from the stage 1. Dream Big.

In this first Dream Big stage, the butterfly has laid eggs on a leaf, and these tiny eggs can be hard to find. But when you look close enough, you can find them. You can also see that the caterpillar is growing inside these small eggs. 

This stage is where you are living your life and starting to dream of a totally different lifestyle, career, or way of being you. You dream big, but those dreams are only visible to you because you are processing it all. You might be feeling it within but are not sure of what it will be and how and when – if ever – the transformation is arriving. So you go about your day but keep being reminded of something greater and better. 

This stage can last for a short or long time because it is easier to dream than to do as it does not evolve any risks. Besides, you are not ready yet to leave the old behind in this stage. And you do not even need to, as you should be dreaming of the person you will become.

Which chakras should you focus on at this stage?

In the Dream Big stage, it is essential to understand the power of your Earth Star Chakra and your Crown Chakra. And how those can help you during the first stage of your life transformation. The Earth Chakra is a 5th-dimensional chakra where your soul mission locates. It also is powerfully guiding you to specific locations on this planet Earth. By accessing its wisdom and being in strong contact with nature, you can dream bigger and be limitless. Just what transformation is asking from you.

It would help if you also focused on opening the Crown Chakra. Especially in 5D energy, it expands into receiving even more knowledge and wisdom from the higher dimensional beings and databases. These higher sources will guide you on dreaming bigger.

How to know if you are currently on the Dream Big stage?

  • You dream of a massive transformation that will ask a lot of you.
  • You are keeping it to yourself.
  • You live your everyday life and, once in a while, are reminded of the dream.
  • You might feel invisible and that no one hears or understands you.
  • You are not ready to make changes to your life.
  • You are comfortable where you are, but at the same time, dreaming about something else.

How can you dream big and move on to the next stage?

The work that is required at this stage of your life transformation journey is to: 

  1. Accept that you are in this stage and trust that the next step will come
  2. Dream BIG! About everything and especially about the new you:
    • What is the aspect of your life you would like to transform?
    • What is your desire?
    • Who is this person / the new you? What does this person do? 
    • How does this person look, talk, smell, and behave?
    • What does your dream life look like?
  3. Focus on opening/healing your Earth Star Chakra. This way, you can find your soul’s mission and purpose in life. These will also help you to dream about yourself.
  4. Focus on opening/healing your Crown Chakra so that you can take in information from other dimensions.
  5. Get to know yourself and understand who you are. Do this via self-healing work: yoga, meditation, energy healing, reading, studying, attending therapy, etc.

This process is so personal, and one might be faster than the other, but you need to remember that it is not a race. Just keep on dreaming big – and even bigger. The day will arrive when the caterpillar is here, and you are moving onto the second stage of the life transformation process.
