When we connect to the metal element we are able to <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">graciously let go of that which is no longer relevant or serving us (friends,<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">work, a way of eating, a mindset) and keep what is of value, which is often <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">the lessons in our experiences. When we hold on to what is valuable and <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">golden, it can flourish again when spring comes. <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">It is no surprise that this season is associated with the lungs and large <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">intestine. The lungs follow this same process of letting go. They breathe in <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">air, nourish the body with oxygen and release carbon dioxide. The large <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">intestine also obviously helps the body expel what is no longer needed <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">whilst retaining life-enforcing nutrients. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Those who have difficulty with <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">letting go or valuing themselves often find themselves suffering with<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">constipation. The first step in letting go is to establish your own self-worth <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">so that you can stand up for your values. When we do this we can <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">surrender with purpose, trusting that whilst we are in charge of our <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">destiny to a certain degree, when things become too much, we can step <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">back and let things unfold so that a solution or divine intervention can <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">come into play and solve the issues. <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">The next step in what is likely a painful process, is to feel into it, let the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">emotions (often strong or repressed) rise to the surface, hold nothing <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">back, feel the melancholia of the season, mourn and cry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"> Through this <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">release comes \u2018catharsis\u2019, a Greek word which means to purify and purge <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">emotions so that you can come into a state of restoration and renewal. If <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">you think of the Greek tragedies, where a lot of dark actions occupy the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">plot (murder, violence, deceit, incest), in the end, order is always restored <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">through catharsis. The process of letting go and allowing things to fall into <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">a new place with an attitude of \u2013 what will be, will be \u2013 allows for the <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">magical, alchemical manifestation of<\/span> <span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">the final solution.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Connecting to the metal element is important because it helps us to come into awareness of what we n&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":326,"featured_media":17529,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[137,141,145,138],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20560","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all","category-euphoria-methodos","category-metal","category-our-journal"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
