Mid-Life Divorce & the Patterns of Marriage
In our first class Chris (Jorgensen) told us that Attunement would change our lives. As time passed my experiences in Attunement put me in touch with my essential Self in a way I had never experienced, a way that felt like coming home. As I came home to my Self, it became apparent that I needed and wanted to make many changes in the way I had been living. My husband and I realized that our 34-year marriage was no longer a place where we could stay, and we divorced. This sounds relatively simple, but here is where I came face to face with the power of patterns, multi-layered and long-lived. These patterns ranged from complicated—what is now my role in relationship to friends and family?–to fairly simple–what side of the bed should I sleep on? Not only did these patterns affect which day I did laundry, they also showed up to complicate a new relationship. Each pattern needed examination. Did it add to who I was or did it need to be released? Imagine my surprise when patterns I thought had been dispatched showed up for return visits. Often, in spite of my hard work, there were days when the past seemed more real than the present. Always, being in the loving flow of the Attunement current was my saving grace and gave me peace. With prayer, meditation, self-attunement and rituals, I worked (and continue to work) to release old patterns. Daily I use Attunement to choose where I will put my energy to bless my new life and sanctify my surroundings. Just as Attunement allowed for my growth in consciousness, it also helps me on a daily basis to re-create my world and new life-affirming patterns.
After re-reading the words I just wrote, it occurs to me that if I struggle with changing patterns of 34-years, how much harder it might be to change patterns centuries long between countries or groups of peoples. Patterns such as using aggression to settle disputes or acquire what is wanted, or demeaning the humanity of another group of people to become more important or powerful. As human consciousness is raised and more people desire to live authentically, nations will have to follow, letting go of destructive patterns of behavior. It becomes imperative to begin work now on releasing world patterns in much the same way one would after a divorce because they are larger, of longer duration and more destructive.
