Dear Friends,
Today I did a brief Shamanic journey with a skilled friend and during the journey, God's Light came into my thoughts and gave me a powerful message.
Many things have died in my life this year, as well as many new beginning have graced my space. God said to me:
A part of spiritual mastery is being able to accept death. This acceptance of death is a peaceful way of "being". We need not push death away, ignore it, condemn nor reject it. Once we can be in the space of accepting that everything dies eventually, then we can let go of expectations and allow new life to gently take over. All death is an important component of a cycle, like night and day. They work together harmoniously to bring life to one another. Without the ending of day, we cannot experience the beauty of night, and without the rising of the sun to melt away the night, then we cannot be warmed and refreshed by the daylight. This cycle brings forth the passage of time, for every night is different and every day is new. They are never the exact same night and day. This is because life grows during this cycle. Every day brings new height to a baby tree and every night brings new new learning for a baby owl.
All of death returns to life, maybe not in the exact same form, but it does return.
This, however, is not the same as killing. Killing and murder are the forcing of death, which is an entirely different energy. This energy does not spark growth nor love.
So allow yourself to sit quietly in the mist of an ending, a death, and allow the ashes to rain down upon you without trying to stop it, fix it or change it. Just allow it to happen. This allowance will cause the ashes to becomes seeds around you which will then grow into new life more swiftly than if you tried to control the process. We cannot predict the exact nature of this new life, but by Being with it, you allow life to return effortlessly.
