\nIn 2009 I lost a significant person in my life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>It was a tumultuous relationship, with highs and lows.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>I knew I had to begin distancing myself from him because he was disrespecting me, and the relationship was no longer serving me. The more\u00a0<\/b><\/span>I began to see it as a reflection of my own disrespect for myself, it became essential to release him from my life.<\/b><\/p>\n

Shortly thereafter, he succumbed to an illness and transitioned.<\/span><\/p>\n

I knew on a deeper level we had a soul contract to reunite this lifetime and clear old karma with one another.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>But I took his death hard.<\/span><\/p>\n

I had come to depend upon him emotionally and financially, and it took time to release that sadness and pain.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>But looking back, I see that experience was an essential part of my awakening in this my last lifetime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shortly after his funeral, I came down with some type of respiratory infection, or virus.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>It kept me bed-ridden for nearly two months.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>I had a chronic cough, and it scared me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>At one point I didn\u2019t think I was going to survive it.<\/span><\/p>\n

I took some measures to alleviate the symptoms, but I knew it needed to run its course.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was very uncomfortable, but it served a purpose for me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>It gave me an opportunity to slow down in my life, stop caretaking my friends and relatives, and go deeper within myself.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>It was, in its own way, my \u2018Covid\u2019 experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

It pushed me to re-evaluate my life, and my relationship to people in my life. I was the consummate caretaker, and that was no longer serving me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Now I was in the throes of having to care for me.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Everyone else had fo fend for themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n

That would have been almost impossible for me to do otherwise. It took me another decade, but I have finally come to a point where I no longer need an excuse to put my needs first.<\/span><\/p>\n

So the illness helped me to release old energies in my body and my mind, and was a good way to go deeper into my own awakening process.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the Coronavirus and the current variant are also wonderful ways for people to go deeper and release so much stuck energies in their bodies and their minds.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>But like me those twelve years ago, most people don\u2019t recognize that the virus is serving the same for them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like the Maria from those many years ago, they see it as something attacking them from the outside, and something to resist and fear.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And, it\u2019s no coincidence that the Coronavirus often manifests with respiratory symptoms, which is about the heart chakra.<\/span><\/p>\n

For me the chakra affected was also the heart. I felt an opening of my heart at that time, as I faced so many fears, and sadness and grief.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anything that happens in our life, an illness, and accident, the loss of a loved one, or a job are all hallmarks of deep change.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>They are initiations activated by our soul, into deeper levels of ourself.<\/span><\/p>\n

In our awakening we go deeper, below the surface, as we experience the veil between human and soul dissolving.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most people see life as just surviving, and are not that interested in exploring the depths of their own soul.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>So most people need a kind of wake-up call.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And that\u2019s what the Covid was all about.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most people see accidents, illnesses or losses as random events in their lives, but on a deeper level, they understand that change always happens at the heels of such events. We humans are very resistant to change.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And that goes for not just our mind but our body.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Our body has its own consciousness, and often tries to hold onto stuck energies.<\/span><\/p>\n

But on a deeper level, even our bodies understand that change is inevitable.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, looking back, I can see the wisdom in the toxic relationship, and even in the illness that kept me home for so long.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eventually, I emerged from my bed, and went for my first cup of coffee in almost two months.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>That was the most delicious cup of coffee I have ever tasted.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>First because I was getting my sense of taste and smell back, and second because I felt renewed,<\/span><\/p>\n

I felt something had dramatically changed in my life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And everything that followed since then has been a part of my transformation from human to Divine human.<\/span><\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t mean we need to have a dramatic illness or accident to initiate change in our life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And most reading this have already been through their dark night of the soul. Or are coming out of that stage.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And if not, will be soon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Energy is always in motion and is ever changing.<\/span><\/p>\n

And I have learned through these experiences that it goes much quicker and smoother if we just accept the conditions we find ourselves in.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Face them with compassion. Don\u2019t try to distract ourself from the feelings with medications or Cannabis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because that just delays the inevitable.<\/span><\/p>\n

I faced my emotions of fear, and grief, and anger without ingesting anything purported to relieve symptoms.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>I knew I had to just feel on the deepest of levels.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And while it took courage and time, I\u2019m glad I did.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because it released layers of heaviness and guilt and sadness from my life, and has made it easier to feel my soul\u2019s presence in my life and in my body,<\/span><\/p>\n

Our bodies are being prepared through the light body, to accept our soul on a level that has never been done before on this planet, or anywhere in the universes.<\/span><\/p>\n

It takes time and trust and patience, but as I like to remind myself often, what the hell, I don\u2019t have anything better to do anyway!<\/span><\/p>\n

Go well my friend.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
