The Descent
As a student of life, a devotee to the unfolding, the raw power of nature and an ever growing disciple to the great work; I have learned and am still very much learning that we do not control or get to have a say in when or how we will arrive to our initiations, our healing and our individuation.
There is no formula that guarantees your arrival at all.
There is only your lived experiences carrying you forward. Every solitary step of the way.
We may have moments of clarity, intuitive understanding or a deep integration of a pattern, that allows for moments of reprieve, joy or bliss.
You may even think “I’ve arrived!” Only to realize you’re no further ahead or behind. You’re only here.
And yet still - the descent is the path. The deepening is the way. The darkening is the undeniable process that leads you further into yourself and the truth of who you are.
No matter how much people try to sell you the idea that you control your own destiny and healing, the descent isn’t a choice.
You can accept the invitation or be destroyed by it.
Either way, the person you are becoming understands now, what it didn’t even remotely grasp then and the person you’re becoming yet still, knows nothing at all, other than we will lose everything to become who we really are.
The descent - the deepening - the wisdom that speaks through your bones, understands this.
We break.
We shatter.
We give it all up.
To know the tiniest pieces of the undying truth, the unshakable love, and the undeniable joy of this life.
Yet most spend an entire lifetime running from the very thing that saves them - the wisdom of your own soul.
Because pain lives here.
Grief lives here.
The unraveling is required here.
The descent will ask for everything. To know it all. To feel it all.
To
Love
It
All.
The descent is the way and you do not have a choice on how or when or where it will bless you with its rapture.

Indeed. This is what I mean with “the rapture of being alive!”
