To cry or not to cry? How your Inner Creation Team deals with grief

Part of our HUman experience is the feeling of different emotions and grief is a big one. We all experience different situations in our life that may bring up grief and cause it to be felt deeply.

Expressing grief is so personal: And your inner creation team has a big say in how you express it or if you express it at all. This team comprises of the different archetypes that make up your natal chart. And just like a human team, which has different personalities and ideas, even your creation team players have different ideas regarding grief.

The watery archetypes like Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are the ones that truly feel emotions and are likely most in touch with what grief feels like and have a great need to express it.

But if you have other archetypes in your chart that dominate, or override the watery ones, then the grief does not get expressed.

This is an example of how they each deal with grief:

Water: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces: all feel emotions intensely

Fire: Aries, Leo, Sag: the fire of these archetypes will dry out the water even before it can be felt. So you may be left with the residue of grief, but have no way of tuning into it because the fire dries out the emotion so quickly.

Air: Gemini, Libra, Aquarius: are so busy playing in the mental realm, they will run away from emotions and refuse to go into the depths of the emotional realm, by distracting themselves with endless mind chatter.

Earth: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn: Busy themselves with tasks in the physical realm and endless to-dos to avoid feeling the grief. May be unable to feel real emotion and may even judge the emotion heavily, immediately shutting it down.

Does this happen to you?

A part of you (perhaps your Pisces Venus, or Scorpio Moon) feels an emotion intensely. But instead of giving space to let the emotion flow, your Capricorn Mercury or Aries Mars comes in and blocks the emotion.

This unexpressed grief impacts your inner water. Water is the element that magnetizes situations to us. If it's blocked with the debris of grief, its magnetizing capacity diminishes greatly and as a result we may attract more of what we do not want.

We find that we put in way too much energy to accomplish our deepest hearts desires.

We can get stuck in an unhealthy pattern of pushing too much, dealing with unaligned situations that got magnetized and get disconnected from inspiration and flow.

All the while, the backlog of grief just keeps building up.

Then when a situation of true loss comes up (say the death of a loved one, or loss of job/career/health/relationship), the backlog is so huge, we avoid going into the grief because it's just too painful. Or judge when it takes a long time to clear.

And so it continues to build.

How to deal with it?

In my personal experience, when we go through certain transits (Pluto, Chiron, Neptune, Eclipses), all our unresolved emotions, especially grief, come to the surface of our awareness. For me personally, it felt like lifetimes of grief coming up to be felt. 

In order to experience the gift of the transit, its necessary to clear the grief, else it has a negative impact on our life, purpose, prosperity, relationships, health, everything.

A personal practice of mine is to allow myself to feel sadness or grief anytime it comes up. Unconditionally.

By simply crying, letting myself weep, without overthinking, overanalytical, or judgement.

I don't tell myself I should be over this (judgement), other people are suffering more and I should be happy for what I have (guilt), worry if there is something wrong with me (fear). I simply go to a private space, and let myself cry.

This simple practice has resulted in so much peace of mind and ability to feel love and joy more deeply than ever before.

Eclipse Tunnel: As we move into the Eclipse Tunnel of Transformation and the intense transits of March/April, we may become aware of our own grief and well as collective.

Analyzing, discussing, talking goes only so far.

Ask yourself how your Inner Creation Team is supporting you to move through grief and how you may move through it with intention rather than bypassing or suppressing or ignoring it?

Want to know more about your Inner Creation Team?

If you would like to know more about your Inner Creation Team, check out the session I offer below as well as a workshop called Creation Team Alchemy (coming in April 2025).

Meet your Inner Creation Team session: Here we connect with each member of your team and understand what they need individually and collectively to bring harmony in your life, relationships and sacred purpose.

We look at what is needed for them to function together cohesively, working towards bringing your life purpose to form.

We also look at the Sacred Timings or transits activating them to a whole new expression and skillset.

What: a 1-hour session to Meet Your Inner Creation Team

Why: We often have one or 2 voices dominant within us and charge through life based on these loud voices. When all the creation team players are not heard, we can end up feeling unfulfilled or put in way too much effort towards a goal than necessary.

We can also be misaligned, chasing things not in our highest interest.

In this session, learn to distinguish between the different voices of your team and each of their needs, and know how to respond to them in any situation, so they can work together to activate your life purpose.

When: When you want clarity on your path ahead, your life purpose, or a decision or choice point. When you are going through Sacred Timings that activate your team to a whole new level.

Where: Virtual session, will be recorded.

Investment: 200USD
