Dear Friends,
I’ve been working intensively with forgiveness since the beginning of September when I had four fox sightings in one evening! Fox is my Spirit Guide who’s medicine and message for me is about forgiveness.
I have a strong desire to achieve complete forgiveness towards my ex-husband, whom I still live with- which I think makes it harder to do! Fox made it known to me that before I can completely forgive him, I must work towards completely forgiving myself.
So I’ve been working with this mantra:
I forgive myself completely
I forgive myself completely
I forgive myself completely
I thank me, I thank me.
Just a few days ago I realized that in order to more fully understand forgiveness, I wanted to seek a working definition within myself. This is what I discovered:
Forgiveness is the FREEING OF ONESELF from the bindings of re-living the negative emotions associated with a person and/or an event over and over and over again. FORGIVENESS IS A RADICAL ACT OF SELF-LOVE! (In other words, it has everything to do with me and very little to do with the other person or event.)
Also, I’m excited to share that I was interviewed on the Urban Grief Shamans podcast! Among other things, I speak vulnerably about my Mother’s death in 2022 and how that led to developing the Wailing Circle.

I also share about this topic on Episode 7 (Birthing the Wailing Circle by Walking with Death) of my own podcast, which is called Sacral Transformations: Sacred Journeys into the Divine Dark.

As always, I’d love to hear from you if any of this resonates!
Blessings and Courage,
Betti
