During life’s moments of shift, when new windows open, there is a need for taking serious stock; taking charge of what will contribute to the future, and what belongs to the past. And then dig a grave and bury the dead of the past. So many old patterns and energies are like barnacles on our boat, clinging on and trying to stowaway under the surface. There is serious work to do to make these conscious, bring up the boat and clean them off. Psychological housekeeping is the most important there is.
