Tension Arcs
Astrologically, it just doesn’t get any better with the Sun entering Sagittarius on November 22nd. The Sun joins Jupiter in Sagittarius for the next 30 days so the holidays are nothing short of fun, joy, celebration and good cheer. We’ll have optimism stamped on our foreheads, so do your best to participate in this fabulous energy and spend some time joyfully creating your future. And while we’d love to walk around optimistically and joyfully all day long, we’ll still encounter tension arcs in our life, so it’s a good thing to know and understand exactly what a tension arc is.
Heinz Kohut, in his book, Psychology of the Self, talks about the tension arcs in psychology. He describes an arc between where you are (point A) and where you want to be ( point B). It’s the concept of setting up two poles (or two desires) A and B and looking at the tension that exists between these two points. We all have a multitude of tension arcs in our life. It’s being in that space of where you are ( your current circumstances) and where you wish you could be ( your dream life). Sometimes the distance is so great that we get depressed, sink into despair and futility, and even give up on our dreams altogether.
Realizing there is such a thing as a tension arc, identifying where they are in your life and your body, we have access to objectivity.
Tension arcs suck up creative energy. They can keep us small and create distance from our dreams and the wildest thing; we all have them in our lives and don’t even know where and how they’re affecting us on a daily basis!
Good news! In my Consulting Program, you’ll distinguish where these tension arcs are in your life and how they’re affecting you. We’ll identify them and the significance they hold for you. Discovering this creates space for you to pursue your dreams, launch a new career, set sail, and move towards your goals more rapidly. You’ll feel a sense of freedom in your own mind!
Imagine what life can feel and look like without the ongoing, unidentified, existing tensions in your life?
If you’re consciously creating the life you love and striving towards a more fulfilled and meaningful life, you’re on the path, and you can attest to the joy, fulfillment, and excitement each day brings with it. If you are experiencing tension arcs and don’t know where to begin, let’s talk.
