Autumn is immersing us in the reflections of organic closure. As we witness the shifts in the land, we can track the changes occurring within ourselves and relationships. The plants are decomposing and preparing for winter’s rest. We may feel a similar process of release. It is a time of thresholds and deep opportunity for re-patterning relational blueprints.
The energy of this moment is highlighting themes related to the fine details of how we communicate. Relationship endings are admittedly difficult but they don’t have to be.This is why relationship endings have to be done with great attention to detail and great skill. Messy endings are what keep people in cycles of the drama still playing out, particularly in the subtle body. Accept the endings that serve a greater life for you. Every person plays a part in the ending and sometimes your part is that historically you see red flags but stick around anyway to see how things play out. What cycles are you breaking and what lessons are you working on?
Trust the organic process of change that is occurring. Make space for what is emerging. A wonderful practice to resource oneself in times of closure is to rearrange your living space. Your home is an extension of your energy field. This is why practices like cleaning your home, rearranging furniture, organizing your closet and getting rid of objects that are cluttering your space can have a profound impact on your own mind, body and spirit. This process of clearing and resetting, internally and externally, can support us to show up with greater integrity in the transformations that are beckoning us.
You don’t have to either run away from or fully engage head on with power dynamics. There is so much range in between for how you can show up skillfully while still mastering your own response. Many relationships end because you realize someone never actually cared about your feelings. Often they end when you recognize someone constantly leaves you feeling drained or depleted. But sometimes you just recognize you and someone else are just on different paths. Not every relationship ending means something went wrong. Center yourself, connect to your home frequency, and trust that the path of your own integrity is the guidance you need to navigate the changes.
