IX Dynamic Attunement 199

Renewal follows the catharsis experienced in the zone of making endings. Renewal is the zero-zone, an empty space. When all the unnecessary and harmful is pruned and weeded, the vital and vigorous get both energy and space to grow. New pathways are revealed. Renewal is the time to observe emerging opportunities and new ideas.

Renewal is the ultimate transformation of the mind, a metanoia, entering the new path of becoming with fresh and open eyes. Through renewal, the basics, the roots of the talent and the will are recovered. You will be reminded why you have taken your road in the first place.

Though renewal sounds like a positive word, all the feelings rising up during the renewal may not be so positive. When we have to meet our shadow with all its false and weary companions we will probably not be feeling so good about ourselves.

The highest level of learning is to change as a person. Renewal is the place where that can be made possible. While the “release” is the phase of letting go of the stuff we know to be not working for us, the “renewal” is a time to learn about the stuff lying in our unconscious mind.

To please somebody or to get other peoples admiration are examples of false companions of the shadow. If the learner is not involved in his action-learning process because of his own true desire, he is prone to be lacking the true will to learn and improve, and a great deal of the time and effort used for the process is wasted.
