On Death
“Why don’t you just fucking let go already“ death says to me daily. I’m not wishing for the end or terminally ill, that Im aware of. But death has been a theme since the breathwork session. Unexpectedly showing up in the integration process, death’s favorite way to show up. Mrs. Death Misses Death, the book I read last week and coincidentally bought a month prior, discusses Mrs. Death as a person so strangely familiar. Someone we’ve known all our lives. Highly recommend it, so brilliantly written.
Looking our biggest fears in the eye and accepting them is incredibly freeing and timely with the astrology at play. We’re at the end of the zodiacal year and many planets shifting after long term placements, you’re likely feeling the transition and tension of transformation.
We’re being asked to look at our attachments, and let go of all of them in order to find ease at this time. The way life was, the person you were, the goals you set, the opinions of others, the wardrobe that has been in your closet for 10 yrs never to be worn again, what comes next. Be present, roll with it, accept where youre at today and drop the rest.
This isn’t meant to be morbid or depressing. Discussing our inevitable deaths and all our fears around it isn’t something we like to do. Especially while scrolling instagram, but there is so much peace, presence and flow to be found in sitting with and accepting what haunts us, the heaviness we hold and walk around with. Face it, feel it and be free from it. Ive been surprised by the vibrancy of life since sitting with Mrs. Death. The creative process is flowing again.
Let go.
The extra weight, the expectations, the unknown. Let it all go. If it were your last, would this matter? A question Im asking myself daily. I invite you to do the same. Breathe into it.
Id previously apologize for having no chill and always swimming in the deep end, but I won’t. If you need help in this, reach out, to me or someone else. 💛
