Letting It Out Tarot Spread

As a child I refused to let out my emotions. I would hold them in until I couldn’t take it any longer and then they would come pouring out in strange ways. It was only until a few years ago (maybe around the age of 25) when I finally understood how easy it would be for me to solve this problem.

Creating a deeper connection with my heart chakra and intentionally listening to my inner truth has made it so much easier for me to let out my emotions when I feel them.  This year in particular I have cried more than ever before in my life but I have also felt a deeper sense of connection to every one and every thing around me.  In the past year I've recognized how feeling my feelings (no matter how dark, scary or ugly they are) makes them no longer seem so awful.  This understanding and breakthrough for me was the epitome of the 10 of Swords tarot card. Finally laying down to feel what you’ve been running away from for so long.  It sounds horrible but once you accept what’s bothering you it’s amazing to see how the fear of facing what’s bothering you was much worse than actually facing it after all. 

I think a lot of my strength comes from my ability to feel my feelings. I don’t hold any shame or embarrassment around my messy feelings. I don’t feel like I’m not ‘allowed’ to say something. I’m not shy to share what I’m really thinking. I know this is a challenge for so many people but I encourage you now more than ever to let it out. Let out those feelings you’ve held in for so long. Let the feelings pour out of you in any way you feel called to. Don’t regret letting them out - be proud you did.
