Releasing and Finding Freedom: Practicing Ho'oponopono

"I love you.  I am sorry.  Please forgive me. Thank you for the lesson.  We are free."

What is your relationship to freedom right now?  What is your relationship to your self?  

If you need to set yourself or another free, now is the time to do it.  We are coming into the releasing cycle of the dark moon right before a super fresh and self-actualizing Aries new moon.  

Aries is the first sign, the sign of the self, the warrior and the pioneer.  Aries is about forward motion and defining the self.  Aries wants to know what makes us uniquely us and Aries demands the freedom to be uniquely ourselves.  But with being uniquely ourselves comes the responsibility to allow others that same right, and sometimes we bump into each other and don't know how to honor each other's uniqueness.

Now in the period of release before this fresh start, we can take time to clear up the past and heal with forgiveness and set ourselves and those around us free.  We've faced challenges and lessons and have been shown ways we wish to be and don't wish to be.  We've taken it all in and learned from it and now we are ready to emerge fresh into a new version of ourselves.  So we can now acknowledge what we have encountered on our journey to get us where we are now, bless it and set it free.

Forgiveness is freedom.  The quote above is the Ho'oponopono prayer for forgiveness. It is a powerful technique for healing.  Hold in your thoughts and mind's eye any person or situation, event or group, as you repeat the words, "I love you.  I am sorry.  Please forgive me.  Thank you for the lesson."  

It's time to let go of the past so that you can fully step into the present.  It's time to honor your true self.  Take the time to heal and release the past now so nothing can hold you back.  Nothing!
