Spiritual Ethics in Today’s World
Following the Trail of Open Windows

31st July, 2009 - Posted by Robbi x7928

You have probably heard the old saying that “when a door closes, a window opens”. It was certainly one I grew up hearing and one that some of today’s generation also spouting to their young.

When giving readings there are times I will use this old saying to illustrate that a chapter in one’s life is ending and soon a new one will begin. Often I have discovered, as an astute observer of life’s ways and patterns, when a door does close or a chapter closes in our life, there can be a period of limbo, when nothing seems to be happening and wherein we are often without direction. I have heard this referred to in metaphysics as “the dark night of the soul”. It is a period of time where we feel as though we have no anchor, no comfort zone, little or no faith and sometimes there can even be depression and giving up on life. Luckily, the “dark night of the soul” doesn’t last long. Time can heal, or at least, heal us enough to get us motivated and moving again.

Here’s how I look at it. No matter how dark the night, morning always brings light. No matter how deep our feelings take us, we never walk alone, especially if we are praying or meditating for help and answers to our questions. There are always loved ones, teachers, adepts and master on the other side ready and willing to provide guidance if we ask their intercession. One thing I encourage my clients to remember is that timing is everything. My youngest sister, who has a fire sign moon, used to say that when she got impatient with how slowly her life was moving, she’d tell God to get out of the driver’s seat so she could take over. Of course, that only ended in disaster, but it definitely made life interesting for her for a little while. Many of us do that, or try to. The key to any crisis or dark night is to participate in the resolution of your life’s quandary. Do something, even if it is just the immediate task in front of you. By continuing to life you life to the best of you ability, you will sponsor the opening of the next set of doors and windows. I have always told clients and loved ones, if you don’t know what direction to take, follow the windows. By taking advantage of the opportunities that come your way, the path will be shown.

Years ago a client I once knew lost her job and was a single mom raising two children. She needed work badly and a way to care for herself and her children. A window opened. She got an offer for part time work at a local University, but she was disappointed because she didn’t think she could make it on part time salary. I asked her if there were any other windows open to her and she said no. I told her to following through with that window of opportunity and see where it might lead. She did. It lead her to a full four-year scholarship and the part time job lead to full time work at the University. Today, she is a very fine teacher and is married to a wonderful man who is also a teacher. Her two children went on to college and are leading happy and productive lives as well……… all because she had the courage to follow the immediate opportunity, i.e., “window” in front of her.
