Today is the last of six consecutive sea days on our way to St. John’s, Antigua. Once again, I’ve noticed something during my lectures, workshops, and conversations with the guests on board the Mein Schiff 2: The key issue with personal growth for many people is the lack of fertilizer.

Imagine placing a seed on the windowsill of your tiled bathroom. And there it lies – and lies, and lies. In some situations, the seed might stay there for 50 years or more. What you can surely imagine is that no tree will grow from this seed. Even though the tree is already present inside the seed. The seed contains the tree, not the soil. However, the tree cannot sprout because the seed is in the wrong environment. In suitable soil, it would be a completely different story. Instead, the tree remains trapped within the seed, a victim of its surroundings.

What would happen if you took the seed from the windowsill, planted it in your garden in nutrient-rich soil, and gave it some water? The future could finally unfold. But as long as the seed stays in the bathroom, nothing will happen – not even by the crack of doom.

Anke is our Human Design queen. She just mentioned that the energy of your environment – the people and things to which you dedicate most of your time – has a greater impact on your own energy than any astrological or collective energies combined. With whom do you spend your time? Have you found your personal Caribbean Rebels (our weekly community) to support you? A place that helps you grow and flourish, that holds you, and stands by your side through storms, wind, and weather? If not, then please find it as soon as possible.

You are a seed sent to the world to grow into a tree that shares its fruits with the world. That’s why you were born. So, what are you still doing on the cold tiles of the bathroom? Take your wonderful body out into nature and find the right environment for you to bloom, so you can make the world a better place with your unique fruits.

Warm greetings from the right environment (for me),
