Daily Nugget #119
Kali
i don’t know much about goddesses
but i sure like them.
Kali popped up for me today as i was contemplating.
contemplating what you ask?
just about everything, i guess.
today truly feels like i stepped IN to a new
and
left behind the old.
the Kali card that i pulled spoke of Endings and Beginnings
(among other things. but that a whole other Nugget!)
i started something new today, yes.
i also contemplated ending something too.
questioning what i really want to do with my life and my time.
‘let the past go,’ she says, ‘it’s time to move on.’
ah.
why do we hold on?
what are we holding on to anyways?
a feeling?
a memory?
the way things used to be?
don’t we know that we can access our own timeline
anytime we want?
we can visit those times that are close to our hearts.
we don’t have to reach and hold.
just visit. that’s all.
leave only footprints, right?
we can’t carry the weight of our entire life with us every day.
even the good stuff has weight.
and it ALL keeps us from graceful forward movement
IN to the life that we seek.
do we really seek the past?
do we really want to go back there?
sure we might miss people that used to be in our lives
but we can just pop in and remember the feelings
and
choose NOT to cart it around with us
all the freaking time.
gosh.
let go of the past
we can’t change it
or
go back.
in order to experience new opportunities
we have to close some doors.
if we look at our lives as a house,
many of us have stuff stacked from top to bottom
in every crevice.
there is no room to bring in something new and beautiful.
there is no room, even, for anyone to hang out.
we are stuck with all the stuff.
outdated. old. dusty. unusable. stale.
i mean
who the heck wants a phone these days
that’s attached to the wall with a cord?
and
who wants to read a newspaper from 1990.
well, that might be funny actually
but you get the idea.
as we rocket thru space
the energy of our planet is moving forward
and
since we inhabit this beautiful planet
we must move too.
allow yourself to let go.
it’s ok!
i’m giving you permission.
you don’t have to feel obligated
or
controlling….
or
bla bla bla.
i’m giving you permission
to dump your load.
to get off (quick!) at the next exit.
you don’t need anything.
go light! go lite.
ahh. the Light.
‘let the past go,’ she says, ‘it’s time to move on.’
in the spirit of Kali
burn some stuff!!
i love burning stuff.
old letter. papers. journals. pictures (yes pictures!)
we don’t need any physical anchors.
it only makes the release that much harder.
in every ending is a beginning.
magic lives in the doorway between.
give yourself the gift of NOW
and
experience magic beyond your wildest dreams.
what does YOUR doorway look like today?
