Time of the Moonflower

The term “Dark Night of the Soul” was first coined by the mystic St John of the Cross and refers to those times in our lives when we feel stuck, empty, stressed, confused or traumatised. Our usual attempts to shift or solve problems during these times doesn’t seem to work, drawing us deeper into the realm of soul where we must discover untapped resources we didn’t know we had. During these times, we are asked to surrender what we think we know or should be doing and open up to something greater than ourselves.

The Dark Night journey has been experienced and understood by mystics, spiritual seekers, shamans, pilgrims, artists, healers and people of all kinds throughout history. Perhaps you’ve had your own dark night experience that has changed your life forever, or perhaps it has left you feeling disturbed, overwhelmed or wondering why you had to go through this experience. How do you find meaning and wisdom from these tough times? How do you find peace and healing after a Dark Night of the Soul that has gone on for months or years?

The Moonflower as a Symbol of Blossoming in Dark Times

moonflower2The beautiful and enchanting Moonflower is a nightflower that needs the dark to grow and blossom. Like other nightflowers, it uses the creatures of the night, such as moths and bats, to help with pollination. It is such a wonderful symbol for the growth potential of our soul and personality when we are faced with challenging and difficult periods in our lives.

We each have our own Moonflower story and may have grown and transformed from a dark time. Or we may have shut down and retreated from life. The future of our life often depends on what we do on our dark night journey. It can either leave us either feeling lost and debilitated, or it can activate previously unknown powers and resources in us.
