Letting go is not about accepting defeat

Letting Go Isn’t About Accepting Defeat….

Posted on April 6, 2016April 6, 2016 by Debra Taitel

Have you ever tried to let go and found yourself stuck in an endless loop of blame or continually asking “why, why, why” then wondering why you’re having difficulty letting go?

If you’re looking to make sense of things or waiting for an apology it simply may not happen. The fact is, it may never make sense and you may never get the apology you deserve.

Why is it so hard to let some things (or people) go?

Letting go has absolutely nothing to do with accepting defeat. It has nothing to do with failing. It’s difficult to let go when you are in resistance and if you truly break it down, trying to make sense of something is a form of resistance. Waiting for an apology or the truth or waiting for anything else you are waiting for, keeps you stuck waiting.

Maybe it’s time to open your heart, mind and soul to the lesson learned. Maybe it’s time to release the resistance and live again. You do have a choice in how you allow people to treat you. Maybe it’s time you forgive and love yourself.

Maybe it’s time to connect with God’s love. A love that “will bring people into your life that will love you, respect you, fight for you, show gratitude for your love and want to be a part of your life mission.”

“You might not get the apology you deserve. You might not get answers to explain the actions of others. You might not get truth that makes sense to you. You might not get people to understand what you went through because of them. You might not get communication.

You might not get maturity. You might not get mercy or even common decency. You might not get respect or the chance to explain your side of the story. However, you do get to choose how people treat you. God loves you enough to bring people into your life who won’t hurt you, abuse you, betray you, lie and gossip about you, psycho analyze you, break your heart or make you an option or choice.

He will bring people into your life that will love you, respect you, fight for you, show gratitude for your love and want to be a part of your life mission. The best part of this is you don’t have to convince them of your worth. They want to be there. They know your value. They know your struggles. They are in touch with their own faults and understand you struggle just like everyone else.

They won’t hold you to a greater standard then they do themselves. They care about you and don’t want to see you cry, feel discouraged or give up on this life. When you know the power of who you are and what you have to accomplish you will scratch your head in disbelief that you allowed other people to dictate who you are based on little knowledge of what God knows about you and your life purpose. Letting go isn’t about accepting defeat or acknowledging you were wrong. Sometimes letting go is realizing that God has something better in store for you.” ~Shannon L. Alder

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse March 23,2016!

Posted on March 21, 2016March 21, 2016 by Debra Taitel

“A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth and Moon align in an almost straight line.

When this happens, the Earth blocks some of the Sun’s light from directly reaching the Moon’s surface, and covers a small part of the Moon with the outer part of its shadow, also known as the penumbra.

The rest receives direct sunlight and can be as bright as a full Moon. Because of this, it is often hard to differentiate between a normal full Moon and a penumbral eclipse of the Moon.”~TimeandDate.com

“I find I am constantly being encouraged to pluck out some one aspect of myself and present this as the meaningful whole, eclipsing or denying the other parts of self.”~Audre Lorde

Eclipses fascinate me. They are significant energy release boosters when, with awareness, we allow them to eclipse out that which no longer serves. What’s so very interesting about this full moon eclipse is that although it will be visible from most parts of Asia, Australia, North America and South America it will be so subtle, it may be difficult to observe.

For us to use this cosmic event it is important to be aware of what’s going on the day of, and the days around it. Allow the energies of the earth, moon and the Sun to point you in the right direction. While the energy of a full moon illuminates those parts of ourselves which live in darkness, the energy of an eclipse, even a partial one, eclipses out that which no longer serves. It is best to use these astrological ‘events’ as reminders to help us grow and expand.

What parts of you are difficult to see? Which parts do you not want to see? What parts do you deny? Which parts do you “hide” out of shame or feeling you’re not good enough? What if those parts you’ve denied about yourself are insignificant but you’ve been so focused on them they grew out of proportion? What if those are the very parts that make you whole?

We don’t always want to see the parts of us that aren’t perfect. We don’t always want to share when we are in pain and going through tough times. Isn’t it true that during challenging moments just as the moon looks full during a penumbral eclipse we tend to show others the light and deny or hide what is simply passing through a dark phase for a few days?

“We should always endeavor to wonder at the permanent thing, not at the mere exception. We should be startled by the sun, and not by the eclipse. We should wonder less at the earthquake, and wonder more at the earth.”~G.K. Chesterton

Enjoy the eclipse even if you can’t see it. Know there is a subtle alignment happening as you gaze at the seemingly full moon then, with wonder, look within and align yourself just as the Sun, moon and earth align.

See the light and marvel at its beauty. See the beauty in the darkness too. We are light and we are shadow and when we accept both parts we begin to heal and become whole. It is simply resistance that keeps us from the light.~Shine Your Light Debbie
