The Dark Night of the soul

A terrible cleansing

September 30, 2024

When I ask myself, “what have I done to offend You”? I should remember I have not offended. I am a seeker. I have questioned my existence. I have doubted humanity. I have sought answers from the Divine from very early on.

I am questioning again in my loss of faith in humanity. My soul feels dead and confused. I need His help at this time, no one else will do. I am avoiding the madness inside of me.

This isn’t God lashing out in anger. This is not a judgement. This is a terrible cleansing in answer to my prayers.

The Dark Night of the soul

There is no more battle to fight

September 28, 2024

My anger returned. My judgement ensued. I did not lose my grasp on reality, but felt solely responsible for the disconnect between myself and the rest of human-kind.

It didn’t terrify me.

Now I feel His Light and complete comfort again. It, settled deep within me. Perhaps this was another purging.

I only want to be back here in this space of stillness and utter peace.

I am reminded again that I have lost the will to fight.

 

The Dark Night of the soul

Will I ever be the same

September 25, 2024

I feel His Light within me and it terrifies me. Will I ever be the same?

I fear for my sense of self. I fear for my intellect. I fear for my grounded-ness to all things mundane.

I fear those closest to me that will take me away from this Light. I fear The Dark Night once again.

I am very very calm… I don’t feel itchy to move. I don’t want to talk. I don’t want to connect to others. I don’t want to think. I want to be still.

I feel euphoric. My head is somewhat dizzy. I wish I could feel this way always. I feel solely connected to His Light.

I don’t want to be the same.

Angels

ME: “Maybe I am just distracting myself with learning all this archetype stuff.”

THE ANGEL: “You realize that’s exactly what you are doing.”

Author's Notes

When you are at a level where you see things so clearly, but you are walking with others who don’t see clearly, in order to balance that your soul must have great stamina. This is where the pain lies.
