A week of release

We are in Libra season, and I think the first thing that comes to mind for most with Libra is the scale. The scale helps us to find balance. To discern what we need to add and remove from our lives in order to find balance.

I welcome more balance into my life.

The chapters that precede this one have felt demanding and challenging, though filled with many moments of beauty and gratitude.

It’s hard to express my sentiment in words because it is so full of contrast and contradictions. It has been challenging, yet it has also been expansive and full of adventure. I have accomplished life long goals. I have been to places that I couldn’t have even dreamt of. I have found my way back onto a beautiful path. And, it has all taken a toll on my body.

I suppose life is full of paradoxes.

This week, the theme is “release”. I didn’t ask it to, it just naturally is. And so I am listening and aligning.

I’ve said goodbye to my previous company. I’ve said goodbye to an entire bin of clothes I’ve been keeping around “just incase”. I’ve pruned my plants. Tomorrow, I have a ceremony to say goodbye to my grandpa. And as part of that, we are also saying goodbye to my grandma.

This week has been asking for me to slow down and feel it all.

I am processing loss, and creating space so that next week I can start cultivating something new.
