Sensitive
In our modern, patriarchal and masculine driven society right now the word sensitive is commonly interpreted as weak, soft, delicate, careful. We look down on the word sensitive and we deem it less important than other attributes such as strength or power. We see those who are sensitive as emotional or subordinate.
But what I have realized along the awakening path is that being sensitive is a gate to the other realms, it is the connection across the cosmos, it is the opening of the heart, it is the joyful beingness of oneness.
Releasing the 20 Pound Weight
The awakening process strips so much away. It strips away your long-held self-limiting beliefs. It forces you to face your fears so that you can transcend them. It takes away so much of who you thought you were and the person who society expected you to be. It strips you, and shines light in all the nooks and crannies of your being. And just when you think there is nothing left, it finds another little dark nook, and through the process of awareness drives this darkness to the forefront of your conscious for you to deal with whether you like it or not. It forces you to face everything. Literally everything. No stone is unturned, nothing left to hide.
Post-Partem Transformation
After having a baby, it’s a very raw, potent, vulnerable time. Your entire life dramatically shifts from external to internal, from doing to caring, from socializing to being, from activity to stillness. Many factors come together to create a mixing bowl potent with the ingredients for transformation and growth.
Pressure Cooker
There are times throughout the awakening process and especially when you are amongst a powerful ego dissolution cycle to feel as if you are in a pressure cooker.
Cycles
Through these cycles, the shifts in perspective and realizations go deeper and deeper. It’s life calling out to life. The energetic shifts become stronger. You are cycling closer and closer to awakening to your true nature. To the point where you don’t just glimpse or embody the truth for a time period. But to the point when that which is truth completely submerges your being, because it is truly who you are.
Life/Death/Life Cycle of Awakening
Awakening is a continuous cycle of Life/Death/Life. In order to awaken, you have to shed, and something has to die. In this case, your ego has to shed, it has to die and then it has to evolve so a new you (a new state of consciousness) can live.
Essentially you have to give in, surrender, become transparent, and carve out holes in your ego so that the light of spirit, the divine, god, the universe, or whatever you want to call it, can shine through.
And this cycle of Life/Death/Life, it can be extremely challenging at times.
