For the Sages and the Crones among us
There are priceless pieces of wisdom that only age can provide. As I near 60, I see that this time of transition for women is one of the most potent portals we will come through. It’s where we will truly own our power.
The reason many of us seem to “lose our magic” during this time, is that we are being called to a complete reorientation and reorganization within our body , mind and spirit.
How we think about ourselves is a small part of it.
The bigger piece for those who are tuned in is that we are being called into the work of our souls. Even deeper. And the tools we used earlier in life, the chemical processes in our bodies we counted on, can no longer be relied on in the same way.
We have to truly surrender to the will of the divine. There’s no other choice.
“My will” is rendered impotent.
It is humbling.
And liberating.
We are being called to a new level of magic - that’s why we seem to lose the magic we’ve relied upon for so many years. It’s by design. The magic is completely different and even more potent when we allow it.
In midlife we are not given a choice of preferences. The divine says, “Now is the time.” We can do it the long hard way - trying to get our old magic back - which is painful and prolongs the process.
Or we can listen to the whispers of age. Surrender. Allow Divine Will to carry us. Allow ourselves to truly receive. This is where the beauty of life blossoms like never before.
It is a breathtaking ride. It is a time of honor. I honor each of us who is going through or who has traversed this sacred portal.
