Dark Night Of The Soul
. Dark Night Of The Soul .
Have any of you lovely lot ever heard of this phrase before? Have you gone through it? Are you currently going through it? We’d love to know. So for those of you who aren’t aware of this phrase, what is the Dark Night Of The Soul?
As we walk the path of light, back to our true and authentic selves and reconnect with the truth that we are the light beings and not the body, we in turn raise our vibrations and begin to ascend. There are two sides to such, one side that speaks of the light - all the good and amazing high vibrational things that we align with when doing such, and the other speaks of the dark - the lower emotions and the struggles of ascending. This is what the dark night of the soul is. Please do not be afraid. It can be a difficult journey but it’s only a temporary stage in our enlightenment which once we come through, leads to the most beautiful life filled with authenticity and perfect alignment.
As we raise our vibrations, as we begin to ascend we in turn leave behind all that no longer serves us. This can be the start of a period of time where we see those things no longer in alignment with ourselves, fall away. Though it is for our best interests and will undoubtedly lead to new things coming in to our lives that are in perfect alignment with our higher energies, it can be a hard time of adjustment and an emotionally charged time as we say goodbye. It is not uncommon during this time to see the breakdown of friendships and relationships as sometimes, not everyone can grow with us.
We can also see changes in our career, interests and desires. We can see small changes and sometimes we can see big changes, depending on where we are at in our ascension journey and how much things are currently aligned or not aligned with such. I like to refer to this period of time as growing pains, as we challenge ourselves to face and work through the shadow work that presents itself to us. As we grow in light, we open up space and room for healing, transcending all that is of the dark (which is merely just empty space for the light to inhabit) and bringing new light to those areas - mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. It’s a time of dedication, perseverance, growing, learning and unlearning. It can still be a beautiful time as healing work is magical, it is alchemy after all. It can be fun to learn, grow and widen your horizons and push the boundaries of your beliefs. I promise you though you may see many people exit your life during this time you will eventually find new wonderful people who share that same energy with you. When that happens, it is truly magical. As painful as goodbyes can be, the welcoming into a new family, often a soul family, can be absolutely life changing and bring about an even deeper period of healing, surrounded by unconditional love and unwavering support.
