🕯️ I Wrote a Death Certificate for the Old Me

Today's Lineup:

The death certificate I wrote this morning, and why I thanked her first 📜

A Kabbalah teaching about letting go that I keep replaying. 🌙

What to do with the extra hour the universe handed you today ⏰

Reader, grab your tea. This one is a slow Sunday read.

Happy November Reader,

The universe handed you one extra hour today when the clocks fell back. What would you do with it to nourish your soul and let go of what's been holding you back?

There's no sales pitch in this email. It's a transformational piece I want to share with you because of the work I just did with two videos, and my only ask is that you hit reply at the end.

November is a powerful month. When something comes around three times, it's usually the universe knocking at your door and asking you to pay attention. Lately, the knock for me has been rebirth.

🍂 Closing Out October

The last week of October brought me a lot of reflection. In my last newsletter, I wrote about all the retrogrades, how my body went into so much doubt, and how I cried at least eight times in one day. If you missed it, you can catch up with this link (6 min read).

Coming out of that week, the word that kept finding me was rebirth.

📜 Thank You, and Goodbye

My roommate knows I'm learning the Kabbalah, so she sent me this 40 minute youtube (when you put something out into the universe, Creator brings it to you.) I finally sat down with it last night.

​

This morning, during my daily spiritual practice, I went through the list of steps the video suggests. I've done MANY exercises like this before, and this one took me to another level. You write a death certificate for the old you, with today's date and you list the exact behaviors you're done with, like checking your phone before a hard message. The twist is that you thank her for the protection she gave you, because that same protection is now what's causing you pain.

It took me about half an hour. Then I had my AI turn it into an official death certificate. In the next 2 days, probably on the Day of the Dead, I'll do a ritual and bury it in the ground to symbolize my own burial.

🌙 Letting Go of the Need

On Friday, I listened to David Ghiyam's weekly Kabbalah teaching, and hit me deep. It's about 24 minutes.

In th video he shares a time he was in survival mode and attached to needing something. When he let go of that need and went back to bed, the creator told him that now that he had let go, he could go meet up with the people he'd been intending to meet. The way he tells it is such a great twist, so I'll let you hear it from him. There's a beautiful meditation at the end that wraps it all together.

💀 A New Altar for the Day of the Dead

Today is also the time change, so this week you may feel a little more sensitive in your energy. It always takes me a week or two to adapt to the new darkness and light, so go gentle on yourself.

Tomorrow, November 2nd, is the Day of the Dead. It comes from Latin culture, and I love this day for all of its symbolism. Bella and I redid our altars this week and I'm putting a picture of me on mine to symbolize the old me who has died, because of the two teachings I just shared with you.

🌱 Declare Who You're Becoming

The second part of the video's activity is to declare what you're becoming and name concrete actions that back it up. You get specific: what time the new you wakes up, how she answers a last-minute favor, what she does when she wants to quit halfway through. This part takes longer than the first, so you can wait on it and let it unfold over the next week.

After that, the video asks you to make small daily choices as the new you, with one filter for each one: would the person I decided to be do this? And it asks you to stop revisiting the past, so the old story stops getting a vote.

Give yourself this time while the moon is waning and moving toward the new moon. The new moon is when you want to launch these things, and you can start now and reinforce it on the new moon with a ritual.

I hope this is an invitation for you to go further and explore. This is your own work.

If you choose not to do it now, then now isn't your timing, and that's okay. Give yourself grace and a big high five for knowing where your energy is at.

And if you notice you're skipping it because you're scared, in denial, or not ready to face the truth, sit with that for a minute. I want to pull you forward.

And if you feel like you don't have the time, the universe gave you a whole extra hour today. Play the videos at 1.2 speed and you'll have time left over for tea. 🍵

Right now, take 2 minutes to connect with yourself by claiming who you are and your frequency. I've been sharing this tool for the last 6 months because it's the domino that starts everything.

When you know your frequency, your subconscious organizes your actions and your focus around it. What you focus on is what you grow, and it's where your energy flows.

💌 Tell Me What You Did

Reader, let me be your accountability partner and your muse. Hit reply and tell me what you did, or why you're choosing not to do it yet. I'll honor your decision and help you celebrate either way.

🦋 Walking with Certainity and Trust,

Thuy "twee"

Your muse to help you find YOUR MUSE, laughing all the way.
