The phoenix must burn to emerge. 

~Janet Fitch

The cycle of death and rebirth is a natural part of the circle of life. Just as Spring follows Winter, so too do we undergo periods of growth, change, and transformation. Remember that birth of the new necessitates death of the old. Be not afraid, embrace this process as an opportunity for renewal and rebirth. 

The Oracle is reminding you to let go of old patterns and beliefs that no longer serve you to make room for new ways of being. Trust that even though this process may be uncomfortable or painful at times, it is necessary for your highest good. 

It’s time to step into a new version of yourself, one that is more aligned with your true purpose and potential. Allow yourself to be transformed by your journey, and trust that you will emerge stronger, wiser, and more resilient. Even in the darkest times, there is always the promise of new light and new life.

Be aware that when your old self dies, you lose many of your old ways of being along with it. Be gentle with your new skin and be aware of what may now be possible for you. This is a time for learning and experimentation to see what old patterns need to fall away and what new energy is waiting to come into your life. 

Affirmation: In the cycle of death and rebirth, I release attachments and embrace transformation, knowing that every ending paves the way for new beginnings, and that my soul’s journey is eternal.
