“There is an inmost center in us all, where truth abides in fullness;….and, to know, rather consists in opening out a way where the imprisoned splendor may escape, then in effecting entry for a light supposed to be without.”
― Robert Browning
So, what is going on during these challenging times and how do we cope with all the feelings bubbling up? I am pondering the Browning quote and sitting with this week’s new level of discomfort.
We can all feel the shift in the air. The Great Mother is back, and she is pulling all the embedded shame and guilt that has been locked in our DNA as a species so we can marshal forth and take care of ourselves, the planet and each other.
With the directive of this quote, we can ask ourselves what are those dreams that want to be realized as we trudge through the storms? Once we can name our heart’s desire then we can draw into ourselves and create them. Many times, a wound gets locked into our bodies creating a barrier that keeps us from realizing the things we love. But this time is different. It’s an opportunity to create a new life. Once we can envision our goals then we can build the bridges through the wound into the world.
Based on the Browning idea we can create during these interesting times. So, name what you want and the time or person that played a part in implementing the pain. Then go to the child and tell her/him “I am creating a new life with you and for you. We are doing this together.” Next, see the wounded section of the body that impedes the goal from taking root and visualize a beam of light from the center of your heart transmuting the wounding. As a last step of gratitude, thank the Universe. As a daily practice keep a vision of your Higher Power one step ahead of you while also knowing this power of love lives at your center. All we need to do is have a little faith, see it, and believe it and then it is. Thank you, Mr. Browning for the reminder.
