During our spiritual journey, we face the Dark Night of the Soul. In this period, we begin to see clearly the illusions that is our life. We have chased after relationships, friendships, and jobs/careers that were not meant for us or not good or healthy for us, but our egos desire them and want to be right. So, around and around we go for soul lives chasing after these illusions as they become the lives we live.
When dealing with illusions, it is not only facing them as they are not real, but we must give our intentions to leave those illusions behind, and begin a new life that is different. If not, we will merely repeat the same unhealthy behaviors, and make the same decisions as before but with different people and situations.
I began to see my illusions in 2012 soon after my Kundalini energy rose as I was married to someone who did not want to move forward emotionally or spiritually with me, had a lucrative career that was stressful and unrewarding, and had friends with the same emotionally unhealthy and troubled life as me. When I realized what was happening to me, I acknowledged that I simply did not know my true self or higher self, as my ego controlled my decisions, behaviors, and reactions.
Today, my life is very different as I have done the hard work in the last three years by being alone, working on my emotional landscape through facing my worst fears nearly everyday, and making the decisions and taking the necessary actions to make true changes in my life. I stand proud that I have become the woman that I have always dreamed of becoming.
I learned to give up my ego’s needs, desires, and dependencies, to love unconditionally my loved ones, to no longer live in fear, and to live through courage, truth, and faith that everything in my life will be perfect as I walk the path of my higher self.
