Cycles of chaos

or self destructive patterns

Cycles of disruption

Disruptive cycles in our lives can happen to everyone, in our family It’s called chaos it happens in cycles and can happen for many years.

I recently learnt that cycles of 12 years are supposedly a real thing. They come around and present the same or similar reasons or even.

I wonder and wondered so as is my way I began to reflect on the cycles of disruption, chaos or storms that seem to linger, whatever name you have for the disruption cycles. I began to look at it from a point of view then turn it around and use my intuitive feeling and knowing.

As I explored this I looked more at my cycles of chaos and disruption. Seeing them not from the negative but from the positive and expanding out the view, what else was happening and is this disruptive cycle even mine or is it someone else’s that I am caught in like a raging storm at sea that I cannot easily escape?

A disruptive cycle that they want to push onto someone else to fix for them?

I felt this and turned it around more, sat with it for months not pushing or digging but letting it unfold gently and naturally. As I reflect on this after months of allowing myself to see without judgement, I see there are often many signs in the physical that could be presented to you. For me it used to be leaking taps, hoses bursting off the tap, leaking pipes, hot water systems breaking down leaking radiators and even blown fuses in the house or the car.

Are you seeing a pattern? yep, mine was water and that to me says overflowing emotions and chaotic emotions, stress, turmoil, anxiety low moods. I will pause here and say that this isn’t always the case and many of these things are coincidences, or are they?

The energetics of our energy field are such that what we feel and constantly think about even if it is subconsciously is what we attract. That’s the law of attraction right positive or negative energy doesn’t know the difference.

If you look further out you will often see that the event circumstances moments, whatever they are if it's stress related will cause us to eat poorly, not eat properly not get enough sleep, drinking to many stimulating substances, then this will often deplete us of the minerals that help balance our system and that can lead to food reactions, insomnia, attracting illness even anxiety and depression. This can then flow onto relationships and how we react or overreact, control or become numb to others.

Are you following the cycle?

This will then lead to self loathing and quite often even more self destructive habits losing a job, having to move into another place, losing another partner etc.

So, my reflection is simply this. Is this a 12 year cycle or is it the moment when it's time to look at the self destructive patterns and the way we ignore or bury our heads in the sand so to speak, not wanting to do the damn inner work to finally shift what’s repeating itself.

This is food for thought and reflective insights. It will not be the same for everyone and indeed may not happen to anyone else, but if it does perhaps look at this from a different perspective next time and begin to look deeper into changing the cycle or deleting the cycle completely, releasing the blame game and freeing yourself.

As always this is just my personal insight and reflection and it may or may not apply to you.

Until we meet again love yourself deeply enough to explore your inner world.
