Creating Space 

1/6/2012

 
As I looked around the rooms in my house, 
it became clear to me that though I speak of trust
in Goddess to provide for me, I hold on to 
stuff just in case I'll need it later. 

That 'just in case' thought?  It is a fear based stance.  

'Just in case' means I don't believe I'll be able to have my needs 
met and don't truly trust Goddess' infinite supply of blessings.

Until now. 

This week, I've taken a leap of faith and started to let go 
of more stuff with an intention.

By letting go of stuff and simplifying, I consciously create space 
for my big dreams to come into my life.  As I simplify my surroundings 
keeping and maintaining only the things I love most, I consciously open to 
all the wishes or anything better in alignment with my highest good to manifest 
in my life right now.

With those words driving me, off I went to be really present with these 
things to decide whether I keep them out of love or fear.  If they are feeding 
my fear, I let the go.  If I truly love them they stay.

Nothing was spared in this purge...not even craft supplies in the
Magic Emporium or the stuff I still hold onto out of love for my 
mom's memory. I can keep the memory of her love shining brightest
in the vast space of my heart.

Some things I've easily put in the donation bag while others, I've shed 
fear filled tears over as I let go.  The tears were coming from my Inner Critic 
being so afraid of letting go.  "I love you dearly and this will all be okay" 
I assured her as I looked deeply into my eyes.  

Funny thing happened as I was doing this.  

Coinage started showing up. 

With each space cleared, I found all sorts of change.  
Each time, I held it up and said 'Thank you, I am one step 
closer to the financial freedom I seek."  
It's taken several hours over 3 days to get all 4 upstairs rooms clear. 

This morning I woke up to bird song at 6:45.  I took the opportunity
to walk through these rooms while every one was sleeping.  The tears 
that stroll down my face today are tears of joy. 

Finally the spaciousness and love I feel inside is reflected outside. 

It's all starting to Emerge.

Ah Dionne, that knarly ol' 'just in case' is all to familiar with me! But when I remember how good it feels to let go of stuff that I no longer truly love....sweet bliss is my companion, bringing allsorts of magickal possiblities.
Big bright faery hugs to you my sweet :) xx

Oh sweet Dionne...I today became part of the Goddess Circle and you my sweet one is where I found myself first! Your posting today spoke very dearly to me.I too have had that 'tea' dream for many years and done next to nothing with it. But the clearing of things that must be let go...now that spoke loudly as well..I intend today to begin my clearing of all the "stuff" that really does not serve me. Not so sure about the craft room yet,perhaps in time! I look forward to getting to know you ....Thank you for being here for me today! Blessings...Judy

Bless you Ace! There is such delicious bliss in letting go that's one of the things I'm loving as I bask in the spaciousness.

Darling Judy I am so pleased you've become part of the Goddess Circle!! I think you will find the loving support you need in order to move to your mountains and to let go. Do only as much as your spirit is calling you to do right now dear one! It's all about trusting your inner wisdom. Bless you and thanks for connecting.

Beautiful post, Dionne. I have a sneaking suspicion that letting go - of objects, people and situations - is one of the lessons I'm here to learn this time around, because it feels so unnatural for me. I look at people who seem to manage it effortlessly and wonder how I could ever become like them.

Thank you for posting such a wonderfully honest description of how the first few steps of letting go have been for you. I feel just that little bit closer to trusting myself to know what to let go of and what to keep after reading it.

Blessings

This is beautiful, expressing the process in such a lovely way. I've been gradually doing this for a while, going in spurts of activity. But it feels more and more like it's time to really dig in deep and let go of even more. I'm craving more spaciousness...

I was really moved by this post Dionne - you show so much courage and I love that you nurtured your inner critic through the process instead of shutting down her feelings. I feel an abundance of blessings is finding its way to you and your sacred space right now! x
