The blessings of illness. When the body is weak, the mind cannot fight. The fever shuts down all resistance, all thoughts, all cravings, that we have to do this and that, act, get things done. The body is stopping you so you can listen...
Illness is bringing you space. Illness is a gift for you to reflect and listen. For what comes next for you.
Space is the first of the five elements of creation. Space is equivalent to sound or ether. Space IS the sound that we hear. We need space to listen to what comes next. Illness gives you that time and space. Every now and then, we finish a big cycle of creation, and we start again with space. In whatever way that space is created. The soul takes what it needs, sometimes through the body. The illness cleanses what no longer is needed for our new cycle of creation, the patterns we don't want to take with us on our next journey. And the illness buys you time. Time for re-evaluating what's important to you. Time to think about your values. What you want and what you don't want. Letting go of all the things, people and situations you were trying to accept and keep up with but instinctively know they are not good for you and your evolution. Now is the time to stop holding onto them, to let them go to create anew.
Your body won't allow you to do anything else until you listen. Your soul wants to make sure you've heard. So you can be careful with your wishes. Because what you create is important. It has to be careful and thought-through so that your new creation of life is the best possible result for you.
So take your time, don't do anything else, but listen. Notice. Observe what comes up. It is like a holiday from doing. It is a gift for you. It's like sorting out your old clothes to make space for new ones that suit you better and you feel more comfortable and beautiful with.
Take that time to do a big cleaning of your life, throw away and detach from all situations and patterns that don't bring you further in your life. Retreat in meditation. It does not have to be in illness. Just be space, be the emptiness. Allow the nothingness to fill it with what you want. And then create your new, even better version of yourself.
With love, light & creation
