Are you Blocked? (Compassion) When devastation hits full force and things and people you love are taken from you it is hard to connect to the emotion of compassion? You are allowing grief from a past situation to block your ability to be completely compassionate and caring for others and towards yourself. When we don’t understand death or loss, we tend to cover up our hurts and tell ourselves that we are ok and able to move on. We allow grief to take hold of our emotional centers getting distant which blocks us from future loss. Take a good look at how you interpret death and loss and see where the emotion of these situations hit you? Where do you feel charge run through your body and how does this make you feel? Start to understand that feeling means you are human and to be human means you can grieve. This is the natural order in letting go, finding compassion again will bring balance.
Shadow: Indicated by death or the skull, it represents a time to end a cycle. It takes a willingness to transform, opening one’s eyes to the dark, to acknowledge the light that is held within. Death is a messenger of change, initiation, and transformation. Those ready to change and willing to do the work to get there will bring out the shadow. This means if change and recognition of the shadow aspect are understood concerning the current block, growth is sure to follow. If the block or stagnancy are not acknowledged it could mean a long road ahead of unwanted experiences that bring to light all that you are unwilling to release.
