The second stage of spiritual alchemy involves dissolving the ashes in water. Water could be interpreted as a symbol for the unconscious, which contains the hidden parts of ourselves of which we are afraid and up until now have not been explored. Dissolution can be understood as the stage in which we free ourselves from our inauthentic and acquired sense of identity.
In Chemistry, dissolution refers to the dissolving of solid material, such as salt dissolved in water. It can be understood in Jungian terms as the dissolution of the ego. Since the dissolution stage takes water as its symbol, it is also associated with intense emotions. The dissolution stage involves the outlet of repressed emotions from traumatic events that we have pushed down in our psyche. It can be a very cathartic step as we free ourselves of past painful experiences.
• Even though my spiritual journey had started many years ago around 2013 by 2018 I had a very good understanding and touched many parts of my psyche, We have many layers, that go in accordance to life experiences. So, basically, the more we remain in the same environment, in our comfort zones, the less we are capable to go deep and uncover new territories of our psyche.
We ended up preventing ourselves from growth and expansion. What I mean by that is even after 5 years into such a journey of self-discovery I had reached a comfortable place within myself and my own healing. Not knowing the deep layers that were still rendering in my subconscious.
And was through the pain and confrontation that I uncovered new levels of awareness.
I bring my personal placements sometimes because this is necessary for us to understand how we can use this tool to help and support us while we navigate this reality. The correlations I do, have the purpose to show you that you can do the same. Once the energies are there. We just need to access it and to use it. But first, we need to surrender. Surrender what? The ego. The control. The identity, The lies, the boxes, the constructions of this reality, the separation, the shadows. And that is why this process is not for the fainted heart. It truly is a fight of spiritual warriors. Not for the ones who seek comfort, who are afraid of the dark, and most of all. For those who are afraid of losing themselves in the process. Because this is exactly what happens.
We lose the identity that was created since birth, and how can I live if I don’t know who I am? Is that all an illusion? Is that all real? Where should I stand? Where should I go? What is life? Is there a purpose? Who am I and who are you?
- Surrender my higher self said.
- Let it go.
- You have to be willing to lose everything you once knew if you want to know who you truly are.
- The way will open. Not through the mind but through the heart.
- You will not understand. But I’m here beside you. I’m here, to guide you if you allow it.
- Do you trust me?
- “Yes...I do”.
- So, close your eyes and come. I will take you to the depth of your psyche.
I immersed myself in studies and research. occult knowledge, esoteric teachings, spiritual significances and meanings, quantum physics, ancient knowledge, and all that jazz.
My days were resumed into sitting in my room questioning every single thing I was taught. Found myself writing situations I recall from childhood and discovering all that has been repressed, denied, and disowned. Shadow Work and inner child healing were my best friends. Then I found astrocartography and understood the “reason” why I had chosen Barcelona to live in.
For those who don’t know, Astrocartography it’s a tool that points us the energy we have in each place around the world. Based on our natal Chart. I could have gone to Madri, Berlin, Paris, anywhere actually. But my soul pushed me to Barcelona as the energy there would be the catalyst I needed for this spiritual alchemical process.
I have Chiron and North Node into my ascendant going over there. Chiron is the wounded healer. It talks about a deep pain everyone has on a soul level and we come here with the potential to heal this part of ourselves.
And the North node is our purpose as soul evolution. Our direction in this life. And I have them in conjunction with my natal chart. So, this showed me that in order for me to fulfill my purpose and step into my soul evolutions in this life, I had to face and heal the wounds and pain of Chiron.
It was in this stage that I emerged into a process I created for myself as 3 stages of Ego that lasted 3 years. One year for each stage. Ego denial, Ego death, and Ego transcendence.
And what consisted of that? Well, everything ego. Everything external.
In which I put myself through many different techniques and practices including a vote of celibacy. Something that not many 33-year-olds would choose to do.
I was willing to see how deep the hole of my psyche was. And how much the ego was controlling and carrying me till now. This second stage took a couple of years.
