The Medicine of Creating Space
How creating space allows room for what you truly desire to be received
It’s no secret I am a super fan of purging.
I LOVE clearing out the old in order to prepare for the new. I love it because I love feeling light and free.
Every time I create space in life through the tension of releasing blocks, clearing stagnation, and letting go of the old, I am met with joy, freedom, empowerment, truth, and what I deeply need and desire on a soul level.
Sometimes it looks really big like throwing out one reality as I step into a new.
Sometimes its subtle and internal like letting go of a belief or thought form that is no longer needed, so I can embrace the faith and hope I need to alchemize my visions.
And sometimes it’s just cleaning house on a more mundane material level, but letting that create space mentally and emotionally.
Speaking of, you know that feeling when you have a messy bedroom (or a giant pile of dirty dishes if you are me 🙈 ) that you’ve been avoiding cleaning and maybe it affects your mood or you have trouble sleeping because of it? Then you clean your room and you feel so clear, free, and at peace? This metaphor can be applied to every area of your life.
If you want to call in a new job but are exhausted working endlessly at a job that drains you, then you simply do not have the space or energy cleared up for another job to come in.
And if you have no energy to create your life, you must look to what needs to be let go of, cleared, or where energy can be freed up in order to revitalize your creative magic!
These are fundamental laws of the nature of creation. Energy fills where it can easily flow. This can relate to energetic/emotional/physical capacity within ourselves, or it can relate on a more external material level, and often there is a direct connection between the two.
As someone attuned to the nature of this experience, following the weather of life, I am always guided into a creating space kick as the seasons turn. When the summer solstice came upon us, I suddenly had very specific creating space downloads come through for this season:
