So much of the shift from the old world experience to the new world experience is directly tied to the journey of forgiveness, that it is hard to tell which comes first, forgiveness or ascension, because they are so closely related.
In order to ascend, we have to trust life enough to let go of the old and move ahead into something new. This in itself is an act of forgiveness. I feel it is really trust in ourselves; we trust that what we are learning and gaining through our experiences is worth the investment of hard work and often suffering that life has entailed in our journey through the old world. We trust in our innate value and inner worth, even if it seems hidden sometimes.
As we ascend, we get to know our own value even more. There is a deepening awareness within our expanding true self that encourages us to forgive past hardship and be open to something greater which is coming now. It comes in incremental shifts, fits and starts; much like the incoming tide, which rises a little further up the beach with each passing wave, and then retreats again, only to rise higher. This is our experience of the emerging new world within ourselves.
With each new world increase, there is a letting go of the old experience. The letting go process is sometimes uncomfortable physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually. We may feel anxious and may grieve as things within or without which we have relied on move out of our experience, like the latest wave of the tide retreating from the beach of our lives. Then we feel enlivened and grateful as the next wave comes in, bringing new light, truth and experience to support us.
Forgiveness is the act of releasing both the suffering and that which has sustained us in the old world. It is the trust that allows us to release and to make room for what is newly coming our way. Going through this is the journey of realizing your true self, right here within the world and within your life. You are worth it! It is also the journey the planet is undergoing. We see it politically, socially, ecologically, economically and at every level. The new world is worth undergoing these changes and shifts for. She is making room for something new and better as well.
