Collectively we are dealing with radically uncertain times. All around us, we are feeling the charged energy vibrating throughout the cosmos. You may even be feeling triggered and unstable in many areas of your own personal life.
I believe the world is experiencing a spiritual descent into the Underworld.
When I speak of the Underworld, I’m not referring to a physical place, but a metaphoric place within ourselves. The Underworld is the deepest, most hidden part of ourselves where we suppress, repress, and bury all that we don’t want to look at, see, deal with or heal.
Carl Jung refers to this as “shadow work.”
Many of us are experiencing a descent into our shadow material, to our own darkness, shedding what no longer serves us.
As we approach these deep parts of ourselves, we have the opportunity to let go; to clear the old, stagnant and oppressive energy so that we may be born again into a more expanded version of ourselves. This requires acceptance.
The Universe is in constant expansion and so are we. Just as we are not separate from each other, we are not separate from Nature or the Cosmos.
When we look around, we see everything in nature going into a deep sleep or dying away. The trees are losing their leaves, but they are not dead- they are in a time of transition where they will come back to life again in the Spring. This transition is occurring within you, too.
We are planting the potent golden seeds for a new beginning.
We’re called to have patience and enter a state of deep rest, repair, regeneration, and acceptance. To let a part of our lives, or even who we once were, metaphorically die in order to seed, sprout, bud, and bloom again.
This is called resilience.
It is a reminder to all of us –
We must trust and stay open to what is dissolving away to make room for more light, expansiveness, growth and healing.
We must be willing to let go and grieve the death of what once was and no longer needed.
It’s easy to mistake this phase of growth as one where everything that once felt safe and secure seems to be falling apart. But beneath the surface of the dormant soil, things have never been more active.
We are experiencing a phase of initiation, renewal, and rebirth. Collectively and personally. You ought to give yourself time and space to recover and rest.
This is perhaps the most important part of our growth. And it takes faith and surrender to do it.
This is a very tender, powerful time. Trust the sureness of the fertile soil.
