I was compelled to read your blog as soon as it arrived in my inbox this morning. I need a Clearing of my office and will begin today! Thank you and blessed be. 🙏🏻
I've been in a physical transition for over 18 months (Texas to Philadelphia to Scotland to New Jersey and back to Philadelphia) and I finally have a place with a year lease. Some of my things (priority stuff I had with me, and loads of stuff from my parents house) got delivered mid September and are still in boxes completely taking over my living space.
I've also been wondering why I haven't done any of my usual clearing rituals. The building is very new, but there's a lot of heavy energy in the things I "brought" as well as a need to just reset the space to my own energy.
Commitment being one of my main issues rings true. I am so exhausted from not being able to root anywhere for a while, but I also don't know if this is where I will stay.
Just unpacked my Florida water last night though so it's a good place to start....
I've just returned home from a trip to Boston w/ my partner, mother-in-law & sister-in-law (7 hours there - 5 hours back). Big Space Clear sounds good right about now. Sometimes it feels as if I have infinite patience for others . . . can listen to their tales & woes, laugh with them, etc., and sometimes that is completely gone, absent . . . where it once was is empty. Guess which one exists now. Actually, empty sounds rather more pleasant than what is there . . . it's really get the fuck away from me. Sooo - yes, clearing is in order, and next up - continued work on boundaries.
As soon as you mentioned space clearing I knew I needed to do that. Oddly enough, I've never done a space clearing and don't really know where to begin. I've never done more than sage a space. My higher self recently walked me through clearing my bed by removing the mail and clutter I had piled up on my late husband's side, and then changing and washing all the bedding. Some ideas began to form slowly as I read your post, and I suddenly remembered that I have 3 bottles of moon water from last month's lunar eclipse and several unopened essential oils I was gifted long ago.
Last Thursday I finally had my two root canals and it was on the one year anniversary of the doctor visit where we found out my husband's cancer treatment hadn't helped and he was given 6-9 months. It was right around an eclipse and 6 weeks later he was gone. I'm having grief come up these last couple of days, and I think clearing our bedroom in the lead up to this eclipse is just what's needed. It's time to recognize that this is no longer our bedroom, and lay claim to it as my bedroom. I have some big feelings about that, and perhaps clearing would help me process those feelings.
I love how whatever you share always seems to be just what is needed at the moment. Thank you for being Nora.
I also had a funny synchronicity tangentially involving you. I saw an a FB ad for a free 1 hour training on Grief Yoga. I clicked through and then clicked through to check out the gentleman's book as well. When I went back to FB it refreshed my feed so I lost the ad for the training and I had intended to sign up. I searched for him by name, Paul Denniston and at the top of my results was a post of yours from 2022, and it turns out he's an old friend of yours. I noted the synchronicity and registered for the free zoom call this Wednesday.
Yes! I knew Paul in Chicago. We were in a Theatre company together. I last saw him last fall in Ojai. I ran into him at the Farmers' Market right as we had been offered the apartment we are in as an option. I took it as a sign when I saw him, someone had known in Chicago, that moving to Chicago was a distinct possibility.

Welcome home for however long it will be.

Your clearing sounds lovely. Thank you!
You're welcome and thank you!
Oooof, I know that "get the fuck away from me" feeling well along with the infinite patience thing and the paradox.

His work looks really beautiful.
Beautiful, thank you, for sharing, Amy Beth.
Sending you so much love as you come up on this one year anniversary of his death.
