» ) : VENUS ( '): Love and loss

How to keep an open heart in the "hell"

What you value is what you love or what you're like. Is that what you're in harmony and beauty where you find to be in contact with it. The process of Venus comes to how we find our own worth through others or in ideas and activities. Talks about what happens when the mirror is broken, when in fact others do not behave the way you want to sustain an image of perfection, beauty or whatever you expect. The things we value, where we have our own value, are connected with our self.

If you love something let it go and if it is truly "yours" will return to you

The need for separation: the case in any relationship, friendship, partner, partner. There is a moment where all the changes and actually received the blow of separation, and then things are not the same. It's not about not loving someone, but what happens when we have the separation and how to face this process so that we can keep our hearts open. The work deals with how to keep your heart open in the "hell". The opposite is to follow the path of revenge, punishment, victimization, hate and fear.

The Journey of Venus has a great teaching about love, loss and mourning processes. We spoke about what happens, what we do and our behavior when we lose something we cherish. Losing the feeling of being loved, lost one ideal, you may feel as if you want to die. It has to do with the experience of loss of self. You can have everything in the world and still feel in hell, if the connection to the source, your true essence is lost.

"If you get this or that ....". But the spirit does not care about these things, while representing just compensation for our feelings of inadequacy. We spend our lives trying to fill the gap that arises from this central feeling of inadequacy, without realizing that by their very nature, the ego or personality is made of our attempts to cover feelings of inadequacy. Are based on the deficiency, by their very nature. All their actions are intended to fill that void. Only when we understand this is where our journey really begins to awaken. Our perception of this gap and our feelings of inadequacy are often the result of grief and loss. When you lose something that you truly care, then put everything else into perspective because then, nothing else matters.

THE POWER OF VENUS

The power of Venus is not about how much you have harmony or balance, or if you are very sexy ... The power of Venus is the awareness and ability to be with whatever arises in your life, be able to include everything. This is a very deep kind of love, because it is genuinely inclusive.

(*): Venus is a planet interior located between the Sun and the Moon. Some issues associated with it are: Balance, Justice, Harmony, Beauty, Love ... Venus is how to bring heaven to earth ...

Duality

With Venus (♀) look like we hate most hurtful feeling sometimes arises from the same person we love. We can kill or destroy what we love most. The process of Venus is about what you do when you hit the energy of the ego in yourself or another person. The key is to accept the duality, which inevitably means some times of conflict. Being able to live with it, keep your heart open in the "hell". Ability to let go of something is our life, that is to open the heart and going through the encounter with oneself, with the pain of loss and the potential for anger and destruction. Only then can we ensure that we absorb and then be compelled to react the destroyer, the vengeful, that hurts.

There is much suffering in our world because our grief is incomplete. Your first loss, irrespective of (the teddy bear when you were a kid ....), Without any kind of support or how to cope with that experience, did in a race to engancharte bring something to fill the hole, usually via a superficial level of personality.

VALUE

If we believe that essentially no worth, it is difficult to allow people to enter our hearts or our lives. If you feel identified with states of deficiency and desvaloración, your shadow is to the contrary, a great source of energy for life. Venus essentially deals with the relationship with ourselves, if it does not work, do not feel worth it, because there is nobody there, empty. We all the time to please others.

We tend to project to other heavily when we reject something that seems to embody that goes against what we really value. The more reactive to what we see, the more likely they have a focus that is not digested it, which resonates in us. It is an invitation to see yourself, see what bothers you or reject the other, because they always react with aversion stems from areas of personality they feel a need to protect themselves. The process of Venus invites you to meet you, to ask to look in the mirror what is happening, and why I'm looking, loving or odiando this?

DISCERNMENT

Nutrirte like to know what is positive in a situation and not to feed the negative or what you destroy, it is important to develop an ability to discern, to realize, not to react but to respond consciously choose or not from our heart .

The superego is formed mainly by structures that lie at the core of our personality. Is created when we are very vulnerable, and our survival is not assured because we are very dependent. Then all sorts of layers of protection. Transforming these defenses is part of the inner struggle, a spiritual struggle, a spiritual awakening. The struggle for life, clarity and truth.
