2021 Journey 6th Moon Cycle RELEASE
MY HISTORY — ORIGINALLY POSTED JUNE 16, 2021 ON INSTAGRAM@THEPOINTOFYOU
Last week we completed the 6th moon cycle — RELEASE.
In a nutshell, what we all saw during this cycle is that “RELEASE” is about releasing others from our co-dependent need for them to be “OK” (somehow), so that we can be “OK” (somehow). This is the “last stand,” if you will, of our “emotional defense system.” It sounds like … “I release you from my need for you to be comfortable with my independence (e.g. with my choices, with my freedom, with my Joy, with my competence, with my imagination, etc.)"
REFRESHER: the second 4 moon cycles (Apr 11th - Aug 7th) are about SELF-EXPRESSION and learning how to RELATE to others in SOVEREIGN RELATIONSHIP and co-operation instead of co-dependence...first, by shifting out of our default “self-defense mode.” This starts with choosing to DETACH from the default ways we've needed others to need us in order to “survive," and then RELEASE them from the (unspoken) needs/expectations we've had of them, in return.
Only when we ACCEPT, FORGIVE, DESERVE and OPEN to our SOVEREIGN POWER… then DETACH and RELEASE from our patterns of self-defense (that we no longer need) … can we actually LISTEN to others, without judgment or neediness and RELATE with GRACE, for ourselves and others, in SOVEREIGN RELATIONSHIP.
For me, SOVEREIGN RELATIONSHIP is about DETACHING from my “need" to solve others problems FOR them so that I can “belong” … and then RELEASING others from my “need” (which is not the same as my “desire”) for them to “be OK” so that I can "be safe” (not “guilty" and “abandoned”). In other words, I no longer "have to take" responsibility for other’s pain and then need to “control” it.
DETACH. RELEASE. Then LISTEN … the focus of the current moon cycle (Jun 10th - Jul 8th) … without fear or projection or neediness or judgement.
