As Jason and I cleaned out the garage this past weekend, memories and emotions flooded my system. My grandmother's treasured holiday ornaments and milk glass, Jason’s first grade class picture and well loved action figures, my wedding dress, all squeezed in amongst old cardboard boxes and the lawn mower. A garage is such a fascinating place. A place where we keep our cars and trash and then some of our most personal memories and keepsakes. Oh how it can become cluttered and then cleaned out just to be cluttered again. Every time I clean the garage out, I swear that I will keep it organized, and I never manage to do it.
This latest clean out has been different. We dug all the way back and opened the boxes that have been carried from one home to another, carried unopened, stacked and kept but forgotten. We needed, I needed, to be with and sort through all of it so that the mystery could lift and I could actually decide if this years long period of hanging on had come to completion.
In so many ways the garage is like my physical and energy bodies. I need to actually examine and be with myself in the mirror and then travel within to experience the mystery of the energetic clutter and cob webs taking up residence. We are in a week leading to a full moon. A time to expand to release and be filled with what is true and authentic. I’m seeing that it requires a real cleaning and clearing out so I can truly see what fits.
What are you noticing this week? Is it time for some clearing and cleaning? What are you consciously calling in?
Much love to you and your spirit,
Sara
