A Reflection on Death and the Thin Veil

Yes, the Veil is thin.

It’s been thin since 2020. It will forever be THIN, going forward.

It’s more so now because big planets are stationed. And because the year and sun are waning.

Time is warped. Timelines folding, stretching, collapsing.

The barriers between dimensions is overlapping, and blurring.

Everything we’ve ever known or been taught (read indoctrinated) is under scrutiny. It’s the facade crumbling to expose truths, lies, manipulations, a false matrix of sorts.

If you’re confused and questioning things, then you’re doing The Work.

If you’re trying to “go back to normal” or maintain status quo, then you’re lost.

There’s no new normal.

Things won’t go back to the way they were.

Things were, in fact, fu$&ed.

It’s past time to acknowledge just how f#*ked things were.

Death. Transformation.

That’s what’s up.

Let TF go. Bury it all.

Make room.

Keep asking yourself what you want and what will make life better. Then do those things.

But, be sure those things are grounded in INTEGRITY, in what’s real and true, in compassion, Justice, sustainability. Simplicity.

Rediscover joy. The kind born of simple, real pleasures.

Never let your loved ones doubt how much you love them. Don’t just say it, show them. Go out on a limb. Be vulnerable.

Remember that life is precious and fleeting. Especially when you’re experiencing anger or triggers.

At this time of the year, we begin to celebrate the Cycle and gift of Death. Without Death, Love would not exist.

Build an altar to Death.

Open wide the Gate.

Honor your ancestors - then place their pictures and belongings where you can see them, and talk to them as though they’re with you now. (They are.)

Light a candle for every one of them.

Dance with your beloveds on the Other Side.

Bury your dead. (Including what’s dying in your life.)

Burn the letters, the old flowers, the regrets, the resentments.

Scatter the ashes.

Get rid of the stuff.

Grieve, mourn, cry, wail - grief is too heavy to hold inside.

Pound a drum.

Be sure to help all those (so many) who have passed. Clearly illuminate their path to the Summerlands. Keep the Gate open for a while.

Remember them. Often.

Live your life in ways they could’ve never dreamed or imagined.
