CHOOSING LIFE…. Healing Your “Death Stuff”

June 28, 2012

During sessions, many of you have heard me say, “Oh, this is just some death stuff.”  This is a topic that most people avoid, but in my world, it’s not really a big deal—just negative subconscious material that needs to be cleared.  However, if you don’t clear your “death stuff,” then ultimately, it will manifest in your life in some form or fashion. 

To explain “death stuff,” it’s what I call programs or beliefs, such as, “Get me out of here, I can’t take it anymore;” “Life is such a struggle, I hardly want to be here and keep doing this;” “No one cares about me, I wonder why I even bother to keep being here;” “I feel so alone so much of the time, who wants to be here with life like this?” 

We all have such stuff. It comes from having had challenging life experiences, during this lifetime or even past lifetimes. It’s part of the human condition. Occasionally, negative circumstances occur that trigger these old programs. This is a good thing (from a Higher perspective), as it gives us a chance to dump a part of our subconscious load that we no longer need, and it helps us to grow spiritually and attain a higher version of Love and Light in our lives.

“Death stuff” isn’t bad, but in my world, it does need to be addressed. If not, it will start attracting unwanted experiences in your life, from hurting your finger or stubbing your toe, to literally creating circumstances that will allow you to leave the physical plane—which is probably not what you consciously want.

The reason I’m writing this to you now is that our friend Pluto, the quintessential bringer of “death and rebirth,” is now quite active in the heavens and affecting many of us. The energy of Pluto, when it aspects the planets in our astrological chart, supports us in transforming ourselves deeply, whether we like it or not. Pluto dredges up deep subconscious material that is ready to be transformed, but because it is out of our awareness, we often feel overwhelmed and out of control during such times. Anyone recognize these feelings lately?!! 

On January 25, 2009, Pluto entered the sign of Capricorn. Capricorn represents our society, our world, and essentially our structure on all levels. It also represents our bones and knees. (Interestingly enough, I learned about and started taking new supplements to help my bones and knees during this period!)

When Pluto entered Capricorn, it started signaling an opportunity for us all to “change and upgrade” our structure. You can see this in the world, how it is “up for us” to re-look at the way we do things, from banking to business to how we live and what we do for work. There is a lot of global change taking place. Many people are changing the structure of their relationships as well.  

At first such change looks like a “death” of sorts, in that Pluto first brings “death” or destruction of the old form which is no longer for your Highest Good. Then, it transforms you from within, so that you can recreate your life and manifest a new form, a new structure in which to rebuild your world.  

If you are totally unconscious about the need to create a new structure in your life—and there is no judgment here, since we all have issues that are subconscious or out of our awareness—then it may seem as if Pluto is having a field day with you. “How did I lose my job?” you might wonder, totally bewildered. “Why does it seem like my life is falling apart? I just don’t understand.” 

There are simply forces at work here that are moving you to make changes to be more in alignment with your Highest Spiritual Good. At the same time, you will want to clear all the negative programming that is attracting these unpleasant changes, so that you can truly take advantage of this time as a major growth opportunity. 

Pluto isn’t bad. It simply brings changes that are necessary for you to be more aligned with who you are spiritually. However, such changes never seem to be easy. If Pluto is bringing you to your knees at this time, give thanks for the changes that are happening in your world, and do your best to “surrender” to all that is going on in your life. Freaking out doesn’t really help things, although this is a common reaction for many people. 

The important thing at this time is to CLEAR, CLEAR, CLEAR your stuff. I can’t emphasize this enough. Don’t just think: “Oh, this will pass.” Yes, it will pass, but YOU don’t want to pass in the process, you know? If this brings up fear, just work on clearing it. Again, it doesn’t HAVE to be a big deal. 

I just got back from a two-week vacation. Upon my return, I learned that 7 people I knew had a parent or loved one who died unexpectedly. It was really weird. I took it as an opportunity to clear MY death stuff, since it occurred in my world.  In the following two weeks, I learned of several more sudden deaths of people, and several friends who had scary car accidents. Again, I worked on clearing MY “death stuff” (as well as theirs!!!) since it felt traumatic for me that this happened to a number of my friends.

In addition, I just read that on June 24th, Uranus formed the first of seven exact squares to Pluto that will persist until 2015. Most astrologers I know say they can’t even imagine all that will be taking place in our world as a result of these powerful transformative energies affecting us all. Again, the best advice is to “hang on for the ride, and do your best to flow with the circumstances life brings to you.”

In my world, you want to do your best to keep yourself clear, peaceful and harmonious, and deal with your inner negativity when it comes up. This will assure that you will ride the “high side” of all the shifts and changes that are upon us. Don’t let your negative thoughts or emotions get to you. Work on changing your experience via sessions, mini-sessions and practicing the techniques I have created to help you*.

I feel that techniques are important. They provide valuable “life-saving” tools that can help you extricate yourself from unwanted negativity fairly quickly. If you don’t do something to change what you’re experiencing, it’s far too easy to get waylaid by it all and “go down for the count.” Take responsibility. Do a technique. Call for clearing. Do something to transform what you are experiencing so you can truly grow from the circumstances you attract in life.

Trust that life is unfolding for you exactly the way it needs to, for you to grow and become all that you can be. Another way to say this is, “God will never lead you to a place where His Grace cannot sustain you.” Or, your Higher Self always leads you to places that support you in growing and transforming. None of what you attract is ever an “accident” or more than you can truly handle.
