I have took several empath test and passed them all, and a infj type and passed it, rainbow worrier test, pansexual test, born year of the dragon and a scorpio some of these test was yours. Scored in the 80’s and 90’s on all of them. I don’t know what this means according to all I’ve read so far, I have suppressed my abilities when I was a child do to the fact that I wanted to feel normal, but only confused myself in doing so. I am now 43 this month and in this last month have reopened something that as far as I can tell or more so feel about me. In this last month I have I have felt so much confusion and so many feelings that I can’t explain but at the same time it feels like I’ve always know. I have come into all of these new emotions and now all I want to do is find out about everything that I am. I’m confused, but not scared. All I’m asking for is maybe some guidance or maybe a little one on one if your comfortable. I gingerly do not ask for help like this. I feel as if I am being pulled in the right direction for once in my life, but I don’t know where its leading me. I just know it’s far better then where I’ve been. I’m only looking answers.
I came across your post right as I feel I’m coming out of my own Dark Night of the Soul. It took 8-9 years but I’m finally seeing the light peaking through the dark trees. I felt it coming in 2010 and walked away from everything safe and familiar (job security, home, family and friends). And my white wolf presented herself in the form of a white pit bull puppy who guided my life, and kept me going…she still does. Someone told me recently that I had a tendency to be “allergic to power”, and I had willingly gave mine away many times, but now that I was coming out of the darkness, it was time to claim what had been mine all along. I’m not there yet, one day at a time.
Hello Mateo and Luna, thank you for the amazing work you are doing.
I have a question if there is some kind of derealization of the world in the daek night of the soul or awakening process? Since a couple of weeks I feel as though the world around me isnt real and I get alot of panick attacks. Im dizzy alot and cannot think clearly. Before I never had anything like this although I think from some time Im already in a dark night of the soul. I also met my twin one year ago but he is emotionally distant because of his own suffering. I just get so scared nowadays and dont know what to do about it.
I am a 62 yr old woman and just recently found the courage to expre ss my deep childhood trauma and pain to my mother. she denied everything, but i felt the greatest relief of my life. i feel like i can now find my true purpose
May I request for topics like Inner Demons, Alcohol, etc..Addictions and how to put an end… please and thank you… God bless and more power to you Aletheia Luna and Sol

I love you both from the bottom of my heart.❤ Please do stay around. Namastè
I scored 55.
how long does the dark night last?
I think i’ve been in it for years!
It lasts for as long as is necessary until we commit ourselves to the inner work and bring about significant changes in our spiritual path.
I dare to question, I dare to challenge, I dare to speak the truth, alone. Always alone. Dare I hope that I am finally home?
I am lost…I feel so much and idk how to turn it off. Even when I sleep my mind and emotions race. Then in AUGUST I was drawn to this guy who is not my type normally and now I feel out of ctrl. Idk what to do.
From the moment I came across your site I felt like I’d found a treasure, but the more I learn about myself the more overwhelmed I feel. Paralyzed with fear to move beyond this crossroad. I have been married 42 years. In the past weeks I have been angry, distant, desperately seeking solitude and not once has my husband asked me what is wrong. My emotions feel so intense just the thought of expressing them just brings tears. I long for understanding
We’ve created, and hold this space just for that, a pack who understands Cecilia :)
The book sounds intriguing! Did you know it was no longer available for audiobook?
December 31 was the 4th year when my son died. He died by suicide. He was the joy of my life. I have never experienced such paralyzing pain. I am finally becoming the new person I heard I would become. I am stronger, empathetic, more compassionate. On the flip side, I still question life’s meaning, people’s intent in the world, and if the best part of my life is behind me. I stand strong in my faith of God for if it weren’t for Him, I wouldn’t have traveled this path that I didn’t ask for. I am stuck between a grieving mother and a woman warrior. At times it’s not easy but I will be ok. I know my son was taken home by the Lord to keep him safe. I am traveling through the Dark Side of the Soul like a warrior and I am seeing the light. Thank you, Lauralea
Thank you, for all the useful information! “Aletheia” in Greek means “Truth”…..!!!
I have been stuck in this state for nearly a decade with some relief for about a year in 2014/15. I ordered Thomas Moore’s book and hope it will help. What else do you suggest. Your biggest fan. Sarah Stanley@redshift.com.
Hey Sarah, often such long blockages originate from some aspect of our psyche not fully being able to integrate the spiritual realization we’ve had. Exploring more of this through inner work with exercises like journalling, shadow work, inner child work etc is key.
Just discovering your site. Right down my alley. Thank you♡
I feel like I am going through this phase… I’m developing a new point of view.. more mature…
