Help for Moving On from Deteriorating Situations
Many people are having a difficult time being stable because they are getting pulled out of the present by deteriorating circumstances and emotional attachments that threaten to overthrow their wellbeing. One remedy would be to make sure you’re grounded in the New Paradigm of common ground for the common good by going through Kuan Yin’s I Ching Reading for moving on.
“If you are experiencing a situation where there is:
- a great deal of incompetence
- argumentative persons
- societal discord
- a break up in friendship or family relations
- refusal to participate in cooperative ventures or
- depressed health due to a toxic environment…
The situation is definitely in the flow of the I Ching Hexagram #23 – DETERIORATION.
In times such as this, hostile displays of self-righteousness will absolutely backfire. This is not the time to push your expectations or agendas. Withdraw and consolidate your energy as best as you can. Take care and stay strong within yourself. Do not push your personal agenda regarding this particular situation and withdraw as much investment of your time or money as you reasonably can. Unwillingness to let go will most probably result in loss.
The best things to do when dealing with DETERIORATING situations are:
- Take care of yourself very sensibly and find acceptance of the times within yourself.
- Be generous and kind to those you care about – especially yourself!
- Maintain your inner connection to Hope.
- Keep your focus on those things that are working. They are the important opportunities that are available to you now.
- Keep emotional reactions to a minimum and refrain from jumping to conclusions.
- Meditate, surrender to the fact that all things must end. Know that eventually there will come a change for the better.
If you deal with a situation of DETERIORATION with an attitude of ‘I’m going to fix this’ or ‘I need to stop what’s happening,’ you will actually give the situation more fuel, prolong it and maybe even escalate it. When you let go, Nature can take its course. In most cases, the negativity will feed on itself and die out naturally. This reality may be unpleasant however, acceptance is what is called for.”
Here’s some help through a Transformation Game called “Letting Go and Moving On.”
Gently gaze at these Intuitive Learning Circles one at a time and consider the question or affirmation that goes with each Step. This process helps you to become aware of what’s bothering you, so that you can make a different choice to use your energy more productively and in tune with your Inner Guidance.
Step 1:
What is a situation you’re experiencing now that is DETERIORATING? Trust the message that comes through from your deepest, wisest guidance.

Step 2:
Enhance your inner guidance by calming your senses and bringing them into balance. Some may be turned up too high and some may be too low. Relax and allow your eyes to rest gently on the Circle below.
Take some deep breaths and let your shoulders drop. Adjust the volume to your senses. Do that both crossed and uncrossed over the midline of your body to achieve greater mind body integration.
Step 3:
Release your conditioning to personally attach to that situation.
“I uproot the conditioning, beliefs and behaviors that are pulling me into this DETERIORATING situation.”
“I release them to the Light where they can safely be transformed.”
Step 4.
Can you identify the emotion that pulls you towards the DETERIORATING situation?
Once you have identified what you’re feeling, take a moment and just relax into it. Are you picking up on somebody else’s emotions or your own? If it’s some one’s else’s, resolve to let it go as part of this process.
If it’s yours, it could be a phobia, an obsession or a compulsion. Relax and use these positive affirmations to help you:
“I accept that this emotional state is present and that it must change. All things eventually change. I am bigger than the emotions I’m feeling.”
If you can, rub your shoulders and neck for a minute or two. The more you relax and accept what you’re feeling, the easier it will release and dissipate.
Step 5:
When stepping out of a DETERIORATING situation, it helps to be grounded in a new mindset that can actually support your goals.
If you meditate on the “map” available in this image, your mind can get a better grasp of how it can reorganize your energy in the New Paradigm we’ve entered…
This template called “Common Ground for the Common Good” is based on the concepts of equality, peaceful co-operation and balanced prosperity. This imprint encourages us to establish a mindset where we can work with each other and the Planet going into the future.
Step 6:
To help you get centered in that new environment, bring your awareness to your body. Go to your solar plexus area and open your Third Chakra, the home to your Essence and “gut instincts.”
Use this Reiki Chakra Key to release any toxic energy in that energy center. Take whatever time is needed to let the chakra repair itself and get back into balance.
Step 7:
Bring your awareness to your Heart Center. Allow this Reiki Chakra Key to help you open and balance it as well.
Keep relaxing and breathing into it. Eventually, you will be able to feel positive life energy radiating out. The light of your Heart Chakra is shining!
Step 8.
Visualize a golden web of life connecting these two main energy centers.
“I strengthen and increase my level of inner connection and confidence.”
Step 9.
Let this symbol for Divine Protection help you to close down harmful energy channels from the past.
Once they’re shut down, open up to a positive flow of chi’ and connect up with helpful communication channels.
Step 10.
Now you can gaze softly at this Soul Prayer Chart that deepens your connection with the power of your Soul. Affirm that your energy system can adapt to the changes that are needed. Continue to relax and breathe as you use this affirmation:
“When it comes to the situation of _________, I exist and am empowered to let go safely and manifest my highest good.”
Step 11:
Connect with your Soul’s unique vibration and energy. Continue to relax and breathe as you use this affirmation:
“I am resonating with the vibration of my Soul. I strengthen my unique gifts and talents.”
Step 12:
Use this Chart to help you detach from negative energies around your situation. These may include energies from other people, even close friends or family members.
Like a healing balm, imagine that a loving coat of peace and comfort is pouring down over you.
“I release all attachments and energy signatures that are not from my Soul.”
“I detach from destructive energies, lies, curses, sabotage and illnesses.”
Step 13:
Consciously close down any destructive energy channels that are coming from the DETERIORATING situation.
“I am no longer entangled with that DETERIORATING situation.”
Step 14.
Now, get fully present. Use this affirmation to help you:
“I live in the present and deal with what is.”
If you’re having trouble getting present, it can help to close your fingers into fists and open them again, several times. If you get overwhelmed or feel a strong emotion come up, go back to Step #2 and repeat the process to relax and dissipate the emotion.
Step 15:
Now that you are present, ask your deepest wisest guidance:
“What action can I take to help me to move on?”
Take as much time as you need to reorganize your thoughts and energy around positive action.
Step 16:
Consciously re-direct your energy and attention toward a situation you want to encourage instead. Move your attention and energy away from the DETERIORATING situation.
“I turn my energy toward productive activities and plans.”
Step 17:
Use this symbol to consciously release any remaining mental, emotional or spiritual baggage that’s interfering with your freedom.
You can visualize them as dark clouds or entanglements that you surrender to the Light to be transformed. Stay with it until you feel they’re completely gone.
Please note: Never send destructive energies into the Earth, she already has too much to handle now. Use the Earth for planting seeds of happiness and life – not death!
Step 18:
Finish the game by closing off the pathways in your mind that lead back to the DETERIORATING situation.
“I let go and seal off the ways I prolong or maintain suffering for myself or anyone else.”
Congratulations!
Having the faith that you don’t need to be in control of a DETERIORATING situation is a big help in coming to terms with change and moving on in a positive way.
