Navigate Bargaining
At this stage, we are seeking a way out of our pain, yearning for something to make sense so that we can be free of our own illusions and guilt. The truth is, we struggle to let go of what no longer serves us, so we use every bargaining chip we have. We run through questions and "what if's" as a form of attachment and comfort because, if we see everything for what it is and not for what we want it to be, it becomes our reality, no longer confined to our minds. Our intuition is our stability throughout the entire process. During this phase, the best option is to surrender.
Allow the energy of the phoenix to transform and release any illusions or lies we have told ourselves to feel a sense of comfort. We do not have to control everything; logic is not necessary to make ourselves feel worthy.
Walking away from something, especially who we once were, does not indicate the value of our worth or lack thereof. It's the ability to release and surrender what once served a purpose. It still has value; it still has worth, but it no longer has a place in our lives.
