You could say the actual "Spiritual Awakening" is just the first step on the long path to enlightenment. Indeed, the initial awakening may happen in just a moment, but the process has many stages and can take years to uncover. Healing takes time. Understanding yourself through this process takes courage, as you unfold the darkest moments in your life. Learning to feel the immense energies flow in and out of your body can be overwhelming...But you got this...
A Spiritual Awakening is you answering a calling to your higher consciousness. A deeper mental awareness. Walking through personal transformation. Shifting moment to moment daily. Your old world views are being challenged as you walk through portals of change.
You may find yourself question everything you once knew. You begin to clear certain things out of your life (habits, relationships, old belief systems) and invite new, more enriching things in. You may feel like something is missing, but you haven't quite figured it out yet. During this phase, it's common to feel lost, confused, and down.
The Dark Night of the Soul
The dark night of the soul is a time that feels like nothing is ever going to be ok. You and your body are going through a very deep purging. Parts of you that no longer serves you, are being stripped away. Your soul is recalibrating, stripping away all aspects of the ego. It's very challenging, but once you hit rock bottom, there's nowhere to go but up—forcing you to make a real change. It is like Creator himself is telling you it is time for your change.
Creations
Once you've made it through your dark night of the soul, you're ready to begin creating your new and improved, "Awakened" life. In the third phase, it's all about trying things on for size and exploring. You begin branching out, trying different hobbies, religions, relationships, etc., as you figure out what meshes with your spirit.
The Soul Sessions
Think you've reached enlightenment yet? Not quite. The "soul sessions," can take some time. You're building the actual structure in your life through which your true spirit can thrive. This can take some trial and error and lots of different strategies. During this time (which can take years—even decades—BTW), your soul is growing and healing as you discover the routines and rituals that work for you. You are finding what works in your favor. Rediscovering your true nature.
The Surrender
Surrendering is all about releasing any remaining structures, beliefs, or facets of the ego that are keeping you from your truth. By this point, you've gotten to know your soul, you've figured out a lifestyle that works for you, but there may still be people or habits that hold you back. This is where you will release them so you can fully step into your power.
