- 0:00Inside the cocoon, the caterpillar
- 0:02doesn't become a butterfly gradually. It
- 0:04dissolves.
- 0:06This is a fact biology knows well and
- 0:08that almost no one mentions when talking
- 0:10about transformation. During
- 0:12metamorphosis, a large part of the
- 0:14caterpillar's body breaks down,
- 0:17reorganizing into an almost
- 0:19unrecognizable mass from which a
- 0:21completely new body emerges. There is no
- 0:24beautiful and peaceful intermediate
- 0:26version along the way.
- 0:28There is a period of dissolution,
- 0:31silent, dark, with no audience. And
- 0:34there is one thing the caterpillar never
- 0:35does. Invite someone to watch.
- 0:40If you've arrived at this video feeling
- 0:42that your life has become strangely
- 0:43quiet, that people have drifted away or
- 0:46stopped making sense, that no one calls
- 0:48to ask how you truly are. I need to tell
- 0:51you something before anything else. You
- 0:53are not being abandoned. You are inside
- 0:55the cocoon. I know what this phase is
- 0:58like.
- 1:00The phone rings less or it rings and you
- 1:02don't feel like answering. Conversations
- 1:04that used to give meaning to your day
- 1:06now sound like a radio out of tune. You
- 1:09still smile in photos, still reply to
- 1:11messages, still fulfill the roles life
- 1:14demands. But inside there's a silence so
- 1:17deep it makes you dizzy. It seems no one
- 1:20else sees what you see. No one else
- 1:22feels what you feel. that the whole
- 1:24world kept speaking a language you
- 1:26forgot how to understand. And along with
- 1:28this loneliness comes a question that is
- 1:31rarely said out loud. What is wrong with
- 1:33me? In this video, I'm going to show you
- 1:36the spiritual and psychological reason
- 1:38behind this intense isolation that so
- 1:40many empathic women live through during
- 1:42great shifts of consciousness. I'll
- 1:45explain why it happens with such force
- 1:47precisely to those who feel the world
- 1:49deeply, what the six reasons are that
- 1:52combine to produce it, how to
- 1:54differentiate an isolation that is part
- 1:56of a crossing from an isolation that
- 1:58calls for professional help. And what to
- 2:01do to move through this period without
- 2:03losing yourself and without hardening
- 2:05your heart. And at the end, I'll tell
- 2:07you what usually happens when the cocoon
- 2:09opens because that's the part that most
- 2:12helps you endure the dark. stay until
- 2:14the end. There is also a layer of shame
- 2:17that accompanies this kind of
- 2:19loneliness. The empathic woman is often
- 2:22seen as the strong one, the one who
- 2:24cares, the one who always has a word of
- 2:26comfort. When she goes silent, the
- 2:29people around her don't know how to deal
- 2:31with the change of roles, and she
- 2:32herself feels guilty for no longer being
- 2:34able to occupy that place. Phrases like
- 2:37you've changed or you're distant sound
- 2:40like accusations and she starts to
- 2:42wonder if she's failing everyone.
- 2:45I want you to know that changing isn't
- 2:47failing. Changing is proof that you're
- 2:50alive.
- 2:52Before starting, I need to make an
- 2:54important caveat because this topic
- 2:56requires care.
- 2:59Not all isolation is spiritual. There is
- 3:01the isolation that is part of a
- 3:03crossing. And there is the isolation
- 3:05that is a symptom of psychic suffering
- 3:07like depression or intense anxiety. The
- 3:10two can look alike from the outside. And
- 3:12it's fundamental to know how to
- 3:13differentiate them. Later, I'll show you
- 3:16how to do that. For now, keep this idea.
- 3:20If your isolation comes accompanied by
- 3:22deep hopelessness, difficulty caring for
- 3:24yourself, thoughts of self harm, or if
- 3:27it lasts a long time without any moment
- 3:29of relief, seek a mental health
- 3:32professional. Doing so doesn't
- 3:34contradict spirituality. On the
- 3:36contrary, it's an act of wisdom.
- 3:39Let's then understand who we're talking
- 3:42about. The divine feminine in symbolic
- 3:44traditions is the receptive intuitive
- 3:47principle connected to feeling, to
- 3:49caring, to cycles, to listening to what
- 3:52has no words. When a woman carries this
- 3:55principle very vividly and adds to it an
- 3:57acute empathy, she becomes a kind of
- 4:00emotional antenna. She perceives moods
- 4:02before they're expressed, feels the
- 4:04tension of an environment upon entering
- 4:06it, absorbs others pain as if it were
- 4:09her own. This is a gift, but it's also a
- 4:12weight. And for most of her life, she
- 4:14learns to carry this weight in silence,
- 4:16adapting to people, caring for everyone,
- 4:19adjusting her own volume to what the
- 4:21environment tolerates.
- 4:23Now, imagine what happens when this
- 4:25woman enters a period of profound shift
- 4:27of consciousness. The expression may
- 4:29sound abstract, so let me translate it.
- 4:32It's that time when the old answers stop
- 4:35working. Values change, priorities
- 4:38change, relationships that sustained
- 4:40your identity begin to creek. What used
- 4:43to be enough stops being enough. And
- 4:46what used to seem impossible becomes
- 4:48necessary. It can come after a
- 4:50separation, a loss, an illness, a crisis
- 4:53of meaning, a spiritual awakening, or
- 4:56simply after years of silent
- 4:57accumulation.
- 4:59The technical name doesn't matter. What
- 5:02matters is that the person is no longer
- 5:04the same and doesn't yet know who
- 5:06they're becoming.
- 5:08Jung described this kind of passage with
- 5:11precision. For him, deep psychological
- 5:14development, which he called
- 5:15individuation, includes periods of
- 5:18descent into the unconscious in which
- 5:20the person moves away from the external
- 5:22world to find parts of themselves that
- 5:24were forgotten. He observed that in
- 5:27these moments isolation isn't an
- 5:29accident but a condition of the process.
- 5:32No one can hear their own deep voice
- 5:34amid many noises. It's a necessary
- 5:37withdrawal even if uncomfortable.
- 5:40With that in mind, let's go to the six
- 5:42reasons. They don't appear separately.
- 5:45They usually combine and it's the sum of
- 5:47them that produces the intensity of the
- 5:49isolation you feel. But separating them
- 5:52helps understand each layer. and
- 5:54understanding as you'll notice already
- 5:56relieves.
- 5:58The first reason is the dissolution of
- 6:00the persona. Jung called persona the
- 6:02social mask we use to adapt to the
- 6:04world. The role we play as daughter,
- 6:07friend, professional, partner,
- 6:09caretaker. Everyone has one and it's
- 6:12necessary. The problem is that in highly
- 6:16empathic women, the persona tends to be
- 6:18especially elaborate. They learn early
- 6:20to be the person who welcomes, who
- 6:22understands, who doesn't cause trouble,
- 6:25who knows what to say. And they spend
- 6:27their entire lives being loved for that
- 6:29role. When the shift of consciousness
- 6:32begins, this persona starts to come
- 6:34undone. You can no longer smile when you
- 6:37don't want to. You no longer have
- 6:39patience for the same conversations. You
- 6:41no longer accept being the person who
- 6:43solves everything. And here's the cause
- 6:46of the isolation. The people around you
- 6:48were built in relation to that persona.
- 6:50They got used to the available,
- 6:52understanding, always ready woman. When
- 6:55this woman starts to change, the bonds
- 6:58based on the old role lose their ground.
- 7:01Some people find it strange. Others
- 7:03drift away. Others try to pull you back.
- 7:06And you, without strength to sustain the
- 7:08character, withdraw. Think of a woman
- 7:11who for years was the one who organized
- 7:14family parties, remembered birthdays,
- 7:16resolved crises. One day, without
- 7:19planning it, she stops organizing, not
- 7:22out of anger, but out of a deep
- 7:24tiredness and a desire for silence.
- 7:27At the first party without her, people
- 7:30find it strange. Someone comments that
- 7:32she's weird. Another asks if you two had
- 7:35a fight. No one asks sincerely how she
- 7:38is inside. She notices with painful
- 7:41clarity that her presence was valued for
- 7:44what she did and not just for who she
- 7:46was. This kind of scene, silent and
- 7:49common, is one of the entry doors of
- 7:51isolation. This process is painful
- 7:54because for a while you're left without
- 7:57a place.
- 7:59The old persona no longer serves and the
- 8:01new identity hasn't been born yet. It's
- 8:04an intermediate space, uncomfortable, in
- 8:06which you can't be who you were and
- 8:08can't yet be who you will be. And no
- 8:11one, not even the people who love you,
- 8:13knows how to relate to someone like
- 8:15that.
- 8:17The silence around you often isn't
- 8:19coldness, it's bewilderment. The second
- 8:22reason is the overload of empathy.
- 8:25Empathic women live most of the time in
- 8:28a state of absorption. They feel what
- 8:30others feel, often without realizing it.
- 8:34When they're in social environments, the
- 8:36nervous system works double, capturing
- 8:38moods, tensions, needs. At the end of
- 8:41the day, they're exhausted, and they
- 8:44don't always know why.
- 8:46This exhaustion accumulates over the
- 8:48years, and often the person doesn't even
- 8:51notice how much of themselves they left
- 8:53aside to handle others.
- 8:56During a profound shift of
- 8:57consciousness, sensitivity tends to
- 9:00increase. What was tolerable becomes
- 9:03unbearable. Noise, crowds, superficial
- 9:06conversations, others emotions. It's as
- 9:09if the world's volume had been turned
- 9:11up. In this scenario, isolation
- 9:13functions as a natural protection
- 9:15mechanism. Your nervous system asks for
- 9:18silence because it needs to recalibrate.
- 9:21And while you're away from the crowd,
- 9:23you start to notice something new. Which
- 9:26emotions are yours and which belong to
- 9:28others? This separation is one of the
- 9:31most valuable learnings of mature
- 9:33empathy. Think of an antenna that spent
- 9:36years capturing signals from all
- 9:39stations at once. To learn to tune into
- 9:42just one, it first needs to silence the
- 9:44noise. The period of withdrawal is this
- 9:47fine-tuning. And when it ends, the
- 9:50empathic woman discovers that she can be
- 9:52in the world without being invaded by it
- 9:55as long as she knows where she ends and
- 9:57where the other begins.
- 9:59It's also natural that work and money
- 10:01feel the effects of this period.
- 10:04Some women notice they no longer have
- 10:06the energy for the professional routine
- 10:08they had before or that what they did
- 10:11stopped making sense. At this point, the
- 10:13care is not to make drastic decisions in
- 10:16the middle of the dark. Quitting your
- 10:18job, selling everything, moving cities,
- 10:20breaking with everyone at once. The
- 10:22impulse may seem like clarity, but it's
- 10:25often the urgency to get out of the
- 10:27pain. A practical rule helps. Big
- 10:30decisions wait for a sign of stability
- 10:32and meanwhile you make small and
- 10:34reversible adjustments. Reduce the load.
- 10:37Ask for flexibility. Simplify
- 10:39commitments. Practical life needs to
- 10:42stay standing while inner life
- 10:44reorganizes. And caring for it is a form
- 10:46of respect for the process. Imagine, for
- 10:49example, a birthday party. For most
- 10:52people, it's a light moment of
- 10:54conversations and laughter. For a highly
- 10:57empathic woman in a phase of increased
- 10:59sensitivity, it's a succession of
- 11:01impacts. The excess of voices, the
- 11:04laughter that hides sadness, the veiled
- 11:06rivalry between two guests, the
- 11:08hostess's anxiety. After 2 hours, she
- 11:12needs to leave unable to explain why. At
- 11:15home, she spends the night exhausted.
- 11:17Understanding that this is sensory and
- 11:20emotional overload and not antipathy
- 11:22prevents guilt and helps choose better
- 11:24where and when to be.
- 11:27The third reason is the descent. In
- 11:30almost all traditions, there are stories
- 11:32of women who descend into a dark world
- 11:34to return transformed. In Sumerian
- 11:37mythology, the goddess Inana descends to
- 11:40the underworld and at each gate is
- 11:43stripped of one of her garments until
- 11:44she arrives naked and powerless before
- 11:47her own shadow. In Greek mythology,
- 11:50Pphanie is taken to the realm of the
- 11:52dead, and only after that time in the
- 11:54dark does she return, bringing spring
- 11:57with her. These stories describe
- 11:59symbolically something many women live.
- 12:02A solitary crossing in which each bond,
- 12:04each identity, each security is left
- 12:07behind.
- 12:09Notice a detail in the narratives. In
- 12:12none of them is the descent accompanied.
- 12:14The goddess passes through the gates
- 12:16alone. The path of the unconscious is by
- 12:19nature individual. No one can descend
- 12:22for you. Friends, family, partners, even
- 12:25the best ones can wait on the surface,
- 12:28but they can't cross the gates. And
- 12:30that's why during this phase, isolation
- 12:32is so intense. It isn't just absence of
- 12:35company. It's the very condition of the
- 12:38descent. The myth of Pphanany still
- 12:40holds another lesson. She doesn't
- 12:42descend by her own will. She's taken.
- 12:45And what she does in the realm of
- 12:47shadows isn't just suffer. She assumes a
- 12:50new role, becomes queen of that world.
- 12:52That is the descent doesn't destroy her,
- 12:55it expands her. Many women live
- 12:57something similar. They enter a dark
- 12:59period without having chosen it, feeling
- 13:02dragged by events. And they come out of
- 13:04it with an inner authority they didn't
- 13:06have.
- 13:08The experience of having crossed their
- 13:10own hell confers a presence that isn't
- 13:12learned in books and that others
- 13:14perceive without knowing how to explain.
- 13:18The Christian mystical tradition called
- 13:20this period the dark night of the soul,
- 13:23an expression associated with the
- 13:25Spanish poet and mystic John of the
- 13:28cross. He described a phase in which old
- 13:30certainties disappear, faith seems
- 13:33empty, meaning is lost and the person
- 13:35feels completely alone. But for him,
- 13:39this night was part of the path and not
- 13:41a detour. It was the purification that
- 13:44prepared a deeper encounter.
- 13:47Even without any religious bond, many
- 13:49people recognize this description in
- 13:51their own experience of change. And
- 13:54recognizing it helps diminish the fear
- 13:56that the void is definitive.
- 13:59Other traditions also recognize the
- 14:01importance of withdrawal. In various
- 14:04contemplative lineages, there are
- 14:06periods of retreat and silence
- 14:08understood as a space where the mind
- 14:10quiets and inner truth can be heard. In
- 14:13many cultures, the passage from one
- 14:15phase of life to another, from youth to
- 14:17maturity, from grief to renewal, was
- 14:20marked by a time of distancing from the
- 14:22community. This distancing wasn't
- 14:25punishment. It was right. Modern society
- 14:28forgot these rights. And that's why many
- 14:30women cross their passages alone and
- 14:32unnamed without understanding that
- 14:34they're doing something that generations
- 14:36before them considered sacred.
- 14:40Now, an important observation. The word
- 14:42dissent can frighten and I don't want it
- 14:45to sound too romantic. Crossing a phase
- 14:47like this is difficult. There are days
- 14:49when the person feels sadness, fear,
- 14:52anger, tiredness. There are moments when
- 14:54they doubt everything. Recognizing this
- 14:57difficulty is important so as not to
- 14:59create an idealized image of the process
- 15:02as if all suffering were automatically
- 15:04transforming. It isn't. Transformation
- 15:07happens when pain is crossed with
- 15:09consciousness and care and when help is
- 15:12accepted when necessary. The fourth
- 15:15reason is the loss of meaning of bonds
- 15:17based on function. When an empathic
- 15:19woman spends her life caring for others,
- 15:21many of her relationships organize
- 15:23around what she offers. Listening,
- 15:26advice, support, availability. She's the
- 15:29friend who always listens, the daughter
- 15:32who always helps, the colleague who
- 15:34always covers, the partner who always
- 15:37understands. These are real bonds, but
- 15:40asymmetrical. She gives more than she
- 15:42receives, and no one notices because
- 15:45it's always been like this. In the
- 15:47process of change, she starts to
- 15:49perceive this asymmetry, and the energy
- 15:52to sustain it runs out. For the first
- 15:55time, she asks herself, "Who listens to
- 15:57me? Who asks how I am and wants to know
- 16:00the answer for real?" And she discovers
- 16:03that many bonds were sustained
- 16:04exclusively by her availability. When
- 16:07she steps back, the phone goes silent.
- 16:10This hurts, and it's common for the
- 16:12woman to feel betrayed or invisible. But
- 16:15it's also a precious revealer. It shows
- 16:18who was there for the person and who was
- 16:20there for the function.
- 16:22This period of silence, despite being
- 16:24painful, has a cleaning effect. Bonds
- 16:27that were unilateral, come undone, and
- 16:29those that survive tend to be the ones
- 16:31with reciprocity. Many women report that
- 16:34after going through this phase, they
- 16:36ended up with fewer people in their
- 16:38life, but with much truer relationships.
- 16:41The intense loneliness was the price of
- 16:43a natural selection that deep down they
- 16:46already desired. There's also an aspect
- 16:49few people mention. Isolation also
- 16:51changes the way you relate to intimacy.
- 16:54Whoever is in a relationship during this
- 16:56phase often feels that the partner
- 16:59suddenly doesn't reach them. They ask
- 17:01what's happening and she doesn't know
- 17:02how to answer. They try to help and she
- 17:05closes off even more. If that's your
- 17:07case, a simple phrase can protect the
- 17:09bond. What I'm living isn't about you
- 17:12and I can't explain it yet, but I need
- 17:15you to trust that I'm returning to
- 17:17myself and not leaving you.
- 17:20This honesty prevents silence from being
- 17:22read as rejection and gives the other a
- 17:24safe place to wait. If you still carry
- 17:27the absence of someone who isn't nearby,
- 17:29like a distant twin flame, it's worth
- 17:32remembering that this same withdrawal
- 17:34tends to be also for him or for her a
- 17:37time of inner reorganization.
- 17:39Two people in crossing rarely manage to
- 17:42meet with clarity in the middle of the
- 17:43fog. Imagine a woman who during a crisis
- 17:47phase decides not to answer messages for
- 17:492 weeks. Of the 30 people who used to
- 17:52reach out to her, only three ask with
- 17:55care if everything is okay. Two show up
- 17:58at the door with food. One writes a
- 18:00short letter without demanding a
- 18:01response. The other 25 simply go on with
- 18:05their lives. Painful. Very. But after
- 18:09the shock, she realizes she just
- 18:12discovered who her three people are and
- 18:14that this information is worth more than
- 18:17years of superficial coexistence.
- 18:20The fifth reason is the language that
- 18:22hasn't been born yet. During a shift of
- 18:25consciousness, the person perceives new
- 18:28things but doesn't yet have words to
- 18:30describe them. They try to explain what
- 18:32they feel and the words come out
- 18:34crooked, incomplete, benal. People
- 18:37respond with generic advice or with a
- 18:39worried look or with an attempt to fix
- 18:41it. And the woman goes silent because
- 18:44she realizes that the distance between
- 18:46what she lives and what she can
- 18:48communicate is enormous. It's worth
- 18:51distinguishing chosen silence from
- 18:53imposed silence. Chosen silence is born
- 18:56from the wisdom of recognizing that it
- 18:58isn't yet time to speak and brings a
- 19:00sensation of fertile withdrawal. imposed
- 19:03silence is born from the fear of being
- 19:05rejected, ridiculed, or misunderstood
- 19:08and brings a sensation of tightness and
- 19:10of swallowing words.
- 19:13The two can coexist, but the care is not
- 19:16to confuse them. If you notice your
- 19:18silencing yourself out of fear, it's
- 19:20worth seeking a space where you can say
- 19:22what you feel without being judged. If
- 19:25you're silencing yourself for
- 19:26incubation, honor the time of silence
- 19:29and trust that the words will come.
- 19:32This silence for lack of language is one
- 19:34of the most solitary aspects of the
- 19:36process. You aren't silencing yourself
- 19:39out of pride nor shyness. You're
- 19:41silencing yourself because there isn't
- 19:43yet a way to translate what happens
- 19:45inside you. And if you try to translate
- 19:47before the time, you run the risk of
- 19:50reducing a deep experience to a benal
- 19:52phrase or of receiving a response that
- 19:54diminishes it. Many women learn
- 19:57instinctively to keep what they live
- 19:59until the understanding matures. In this
- 20:02sense, isolation also serves as
- 20:04incubation. Just as a seed needs time
- 20:07under the earth before sprouting, a new
- 20:09understanding needs time in silence
- 20:11before being said. If you have the
- 20:13sensation that you can't explain to
- 20:15anyone what you're living, know that
- 20:17this is normal and in a certain sense
- 20:20necessary.
- 20:22Language will come usually after a
- 20:24period of writing, of reflection, of
- 20:26contact with nature, of reading. When it
- 20:30comes, it will be yours and not
- 20:32borrowed.
- 20:34Some questions can guide the writing in
- 20:36this period. What can I no longer bear?
- 20:39What have I always wanted and never
- 20:41allowed myself? Who was I pretending to
- 20:43be in order to be loved? What parts of
- 20:46me did I hide so as not to bother
- 20:48anyone? What would I do if no one were
- 20:50watching? Don't seek elegant answers.
- 20:53Write what comes, even if contradictory.
- 20:56Often the most important answer appears
- 20:58on the fourth or fifth attempt after the
- 21:01obvious answers are exhausted. Keep the
- 21:03writings in a safe place and reread them
- 21:05after a few weeks. The sixth reason is
- 21:08the protection of the process.
- 21:11New perceptions are fragile. An
- 21:13intuition that has just been born, a
- 21:16decision that hasn't yet settled, a
- 21:18value that has just been clarified. All
- 21:20of this can be easily suffocated by
- 21:23others opinions.
- 21:25When a sensitive woman shares too early
- 21:28what she's discovering, she runs the
- 21:30risk of absorbing doubts, criticisms,
- 21:32and expectations from others and losing
- 21:35contact with her own voice. Isolation in
- 21:37this case functions as a greenhouse, a
- 21:40protected space where the plant can
- 21:42create roots before facing the wind.
- 21:45Many women discover this in practice.
- 21:47When they talk about what they're living
- 21:49to the wrong people, they feel the
- 21:51experience loses life. When they keep
- 21:54it, it grows. This doesn't mean we
- 21:56should never share. It means there's a
- 21:59right time and that choosing well with
- 22:01whom and when to share is part of
- 22:03wisdom. There's also a modern trap that
- 22:06makes this isolation heavier.
- 22:08Comparison.
- 22:10In a phase of withdrawal, opening social
- 22:12media and seeing everyone apparently
- 22:14surrounded by people at parties, trips,
- 22:17and celebrations can deepen the
- 22:19sensation that there's something wrong
- 22:20with you. But remember that what appears
- 22:23there is the storefront and not the
- 22:26whole house. Many of those people also
- 22:28carry loneliness they don't post. If you
- 22:30notice that the screen worsens what you
- 22:32feel, step away for a few days without
- 22:35guilt. Replace scrolling time with
- 22:37something that feeds the soul. a
- 22:39reading, a song, a walk, a true
- 22:42conversation. Your process doesn't need
- 22:44an audience, nor approval, nor likes.
- 22:47How to choose the right person to share
- 22:49with. Observe three things. First, how
- 22:52they react when you talk about something
- 22:54vulnerable. Do they listen or interrupt
- 22:57with advice? Second, how they talk about
- 23:00others, with respect or with gossip.
- 23:03Third, how you feel after the
- 23:05conversation. Lighter and clearer or
- 23:07more confused and diminished? A
- 23:10trustworthy witness doesn't need to
- 23:11understand everything. Just be present
- 23:13with respect.
- 23:16If you have a person like that, value
- 23:18them. If you don't, maybe the next step
- 23:20is to look for one in a group, a course,
- 23:23a therapy, a space where people meet
- 23:26through deep affinity. Together, these
- 23:29six reasons form a coherent picture. the
- 23:31dissolution of the persona, the overload
- 23:34of empathy, the descent into the
- 23:36unconscious, the revelation of
- 23:38functional bonds, the absence of
- 23:40language, and the need for protection.
- 23:42When you look at your isolation from
- 23:44this perspective, it stops being a sign
- 23:46that something is wrong and becomes a
- 23:48sign that something is happening. And
- 23:51there's an enormous difference between
- 23:52the two. For those who live the
- 23:55twinflame journey, this isolation tends
- 23:57to be even more accentuated. The
- 24:00separation, the silence, the
- 24:01confrontation with the shadow, and the
- 24:03revision of love patterns create a
- 24:05terrain in which the ordinary world
- 24:07seems too shallow. Many women report
- 24:10that after going through this kind of
- 24:12bond, they can no longer coexist with
- 24:14superficial conversations, lukewarm
- 24:16relationships, or empty routines. They
- 24:19drift away, and it's natural. But the
- 24:22goal of this distancing isn't permanent
- 24:24solitude, but the reconstruction of a
- 24:27life more aligned with who they're
- 24:28becoming.
- 24:30Let's now talk about how to
- 24:32differentiate an isolation of crossing
- 24:34from one that calls for professional
- 24:36help.
- 24:38This difference is important and I want
- 24:40to be careful. In an isolation of
- 24:42crossing, even with sadness and
- 24:44tiredness, the person maintains a thread
- 24:46of curiosity about life. They can care
- 24:49for themselves even if minimally. They
- 24:52feel moments of relief, of beauty, of
- 24:55peace. They have the sensation that
- 24:58something is happening even if they
- 24:59don't know what. And they can maintain
- 25:02at least one bond of trust with someone.
- 25:05In an isolation that calls for help, the
- 25:08person loses interest in almost
- 25:10everything. They feel empty without
- 25:12hope, incapable of caring for eating,
- 25:15sleeping, hygiene. Thoughts are
- 25:17repetitive and negative. There may be
- 25:20thoughts that life isn't worth it or of
- 25:22self harm. There are no moments of
- 25:25relief and the duration is prolonged
- 25:27weeks or months without improvement. In
- 25:30these cases, spirituality doesn't
- 25:32substitute clinical care. Seek a
- 25:34psychologist, a psychiatrist, a health
- 25:37service. In Brazil, the Centro Dealer
- 25:40Saund CVV offers free support at 188 at
- 25:45any hour. Asking for help is an act of
- 25:48courage and self-love.
- 25:51It's possible too that the two things
- 25:53coexist, a spiritual crossing
- 25:56accompanied by depression. There's no
- 25:58contradiction in that. Many people go
- 26:01through profound transformations while
- 26:03dealing with psychic suffering and they
- 26:05benefit from therapeutic support
- 26:06precisely to cross the process with more
- 26:09safety. A good therapist won't try to
- 26:12eliminate your inner world. They'll help
- 26:14you navigate it with more firmness. When
- 26:17seeking therapeutic support, choose
- 26:19professionals who respect your worldview
- 26:21without imposing theirs. A good
- 26:24therapist doesn't laugh at your
- 26:26spiritual experiences, nor turns them
- 26:28into an immediate diagnosis. They
- 26:31listen, investigate carefully, and help
- 26:33you distinguish what is symptom from
- 26:35what is meaning.
- 26:37If the first attempt doesn't work, don't
- 26:40give up. The therapeutic bond is like
- 26:42any other and it takes time to find the
- 26:44right person. It's worth insisting
- 26:46because having someone qualified beside
- 26:48you transforms the crossing.
- 26:52Now let's go to what to do. The first
- 26:55principle is don't fight the withdrawal.
- 26:58Many women try to force themselves back
- 27:00into social life to smile at gatherings
- 27:03to keep the pace of before and they
- 27:05exhaust themselves.
- 27:07Allow yourself to reduce commitments.
- 27:10Say no to invitations that drain. Choose
- 27:13when and with whom to be. This isn't
- 27:16selfishness. It's respect for a process
- 27:18that's happening. You can communicate
- 27:21simply. I'm going through a phase of
- 27:23withdrawal and I need more silence, but
- 27:26I really like you. Whoever truly loves
- 27:28you understands.
- 27:31for family, which is often the one that
- 27:33finds its strangest simple and honest
- 27:35phrases help. Something like, "I'm going
- 27:39through a period of change and I need
- 27:41more time for myself. This isn't about
- 27:44you." Avoid long explanations that deep
- 27:47down ask for approval. Whoever loves you
- 27:51will need some time to get used to it,
- 27:53and that's okay. What matters is that
- 27:55you don't demand of yourself that you
- 27:57justify what you can't yet name, nor
- 28:00feel obliged to convince anyone that
- 28:02your process is legitimate. The second
- 28:05principle is to keep at least one thread
- 28:08of connection. Total isolation tends to
- 28:11intensify anguish. Choose one or two
- 28:14trusted people, someone who listens
- 28:16without trying to fix, and keep regular
- 28:18contact with them, even if brief. A
- 28:21message a week, an occasional coffee, a
- 28:23walk. This thread functions as a rope
- 28:26tied to the surface. You can descend
- 28:28deep, but you know there's a way back.
- 28:31If you don't have anyone like that,
- 28:33consider a therapist or a support group
- 28:35where this bond can be built. Also,
- 28:37define some soft rules for your
- 28:39isolation. Times when you're available
- 28:41to the world and times when you're not.
- 28:44A time limit on social media. One day of
- 28:47the week to be with someone dear. These
- 28:49rules aren't bars, they're handrails.
- 28:52They prevent healthy withdrawal from
- 28:54turning into disappearance.
- 28:56If over time you notice that the
- 28:58handrails are being ignored and you're
- 29:00drifting further and further away,
- 29:02return to the question, is this crossing
- 29:05or is it suffering asking for care?
- 29:08Having this question within reach is a
- 29:10way of protecting yourself. The third
- 29:13principle is to give form to what
- 29:15happens. Write every day or when you can
- 29:20record dreams, sensations, thoughts,
- 29:24memories, doubts, intuitions. It doesn't
- 29:27need to be organized nor beautiful.
- 29:30Writing is a bridge between the inner
- 29:32world and language. And it's through it
- 29:34that the words that don't yet exist
- 29:37begin to be born.
- 29:39Many women report that after a few
- 29:41months of regular writing, they realized
- 29:44they already knew how to explain what
- 29:46they lived and that the answers were
- 29:48there all along. If you want a small
- 29:51writing ritual, try this. At the end of
- 29:54the day, sit in silence for 3 minutes.
- 29:57Then write three things. a sensation you
- 30:00noticed in yourself today, a situation
- 30:03in which you felt you absorbed something
- 30:05from others and one thing you'd like to
- 30:07say to someone and didn't.
- 30:10Read what you wrote and add a sentence
- 30:12of welcoming like the one you'd say to a
- 30:15friend.
- 30:17This ritual of 5 or 10 minutes repeated
- 30:19for a few weeks creates a space of
- 30:22intimacy with yourself that sustains the
- 30:24rest of the day.
- 30:26The fourth principle is to care for the
- 30:29body. During profound changes, the body
- 30:32usually reflects what happens inside.
- 30:35Tiredness, sleep changes, tension,
- 30:37sensitivity to noises and smells.
- 30:40Respect these signs. Sleep as much as
- 30:43you need. Eat regularly. Move gently.
- 30:46Spend time outdoors. Take in the sun.
- 30:48Breathe deeply. Touching the earth.
- 30:51Walking barefoot. Observing the sky. All
- 30:54of this regulates the nervous system and
- 30:56brings a sensation of belonging that
- 30:58doesn't depend on people.
- 31:01Many sensitive women find relief in
- 31:04small practices of discharge. A warm
- 31:07bath at the end of the day, imagining
- 31:09that the water takes with it everything
- 31:11you absorbed. Stretching the body slowly
- 31:14lying on the floor and feeling the
- 31:16weight of the body being supported.
- 31:18Hugging a pillow. breathing counting to
- 31:20four on the inhale and to six on the
- 31:22exhale. These practices have nothing
- 31:25mysterious about them. They help the
- 31:27nervous system leave the state of alert
- 31:30and remember that the day is over. In a
- 31:32phase when sensitivity is heightened,
- 31:34this simple hygiene makes an enormous
- 31:37difference. The fifth principle is to
- 31:39establish boundaries with the world.
- 31:42Empathic women easily absorb what others
- 31:44feel and during this phase this
- 31:46intensifies.
- 31:49Reduce exposure to what overwhelms you.
- 31:51News, social media, noisy environments,
- 31:54people who dump emotions. Before
- 31:57answering the phone, breathe. Before
- 32:00entering a crowded place, remember that
- 32:02what you feel isn't all yours. After a
- 32:05meeting, set aside a moment to ask
- 32:07yourself, "What of this tiredness is
- 32:09mine? And what did I absorb?" This
- 32:12simple question is a precious training.
- 32:15The sixth principle is ritualization.
- 32:19Create small rituals that mark the day
- 32:21and sustain the sensation of meaning.
- 32:23Lighting a candle at nightfall, drinking
- 32:26tea in silence, writing three lines,
- 32:28taking a walk at dusk, looking at the
- 32:30sky before sleeping.
- 32:33Rituals don't need to be mystical. They
- 32:36need to be regular to create a frame of
- 32:38security within the void. In phases of
- 32:40dissolution, sacred routine is an
- 32:43anchor. The seventh principle is
- 32:45kindness toward yourself.
- 32:47Many women in this period accused
- 32:49themselves of being weak, of
- 32:51exaggerating, of should being stronger.
- 32:55Exchange self-criticism for compassion.
- 32:58Speak to yourself as you'd speak to a
- 33:00dear friend going through a difficult
- 33:02moment. Allow yourself not to know.
- 33:04Allow yourself to rest. Allow yourself
- 33:07to cry. The woman you're becoming isn't
- 33:09born from hardness. She's born from
- 33:11welcoming. I also want to offer you an
- 33:14image for the heavier days. Imagine a
- 33:17woman sitting by the window on a gray
- 33:19afternoon with the silent phone beside
- 33:21her. She asks herself if anyone missed
- 33:24her. In silence, she notices that she
- 33:27also doesn't miss almost anything that
- 33:29surrounded her and that frightens her.
- 33:31After some time, she notices the wind
- 33:34moving the leaves of a tree and
- 33:36something inside her calms. It isn't a
- 33:38grand revelation. It's just a small
- 33:41piece. But it's there that the crossing
- 33:43happens. in the small pieces that
- 33:46accumulate. In the instance when the
- 33:48body remembers that it's alive and that
- 33:50it still belongs to the world.
- 33:53If today you are that woman, know that
- 33:56she isn't lost. She's being rewritten
- 33:59slowly with the tiny handwriting of
- 34:01silence. And when the page is ready,
- 34:03you'll recognize each line as yours
- 34:06because it was written without anyone
- 34:07asking it to be different. Finally,
- 34:10remember that you don't need to decide
- 34:12today what this period means. It's
- 34:14enough to cross today with as much
- 34:16tenderness as possible. Tomorrow, the
- 34:19meaning will have a little more form.
- 34:21Trusting in this slow rhythm without
- 34:23demanding immediate answers is already
- 34:25one of the deepest forms of care that
- 34:27exist, and it's yours alone. Let's now
- 34:31talk about what happens when the cocoon
- 34:33begins to open. The signs are subtle and
- 34:36they usually appear before any external
- 34:39change. The first is a new curiosity, a
- 34:43small interest in something that hadn't
- 34:45awakened anything in a long time. A
- 34:48book, a song, a place, a person. The
- 34:51second is a passing lightness, moments
- 34:54when you notice you spent an hour
- 34:55without feeling the weight. The third is
- 34:58a sudden clarity about something that
- 35:00previously seemed confusing, as if a
- 35:02piece had fit. The fourth is an urge to
- 35:05express yourself, to write, to speak, to
- 35:08create, to share. And the fifth is a
- 35:11sensation of being firmer in your own
- 35:14center.
- 35:16When this opening happens, relationships
- 35:18also change. Some people come back in
- 35:21another way. Others remain distant, and
- 35:24you no longer feel the lack. New people
- 35:26appear, often surprisingly, and bring
- 35:29the sensation of recognition that
- 35:31previously seemed impossible.
- 35:34Many women report that upon leaving this
- 35:36period, they began to feel part of a
- 35:38broader community of people who also
- 35:41crossed their knights and who speak the
- 35:43same language without needing many
- 35:45explanations.
- 35:46Upon returning to coexistence, do it
- 35:49gradually. Start with short encounters
- 35:51with people you feel safe with in calm
- 35:54environments. Observe how your body
- 35:56reacts. If you feel tired quickly, leave
- 35:59without guilt. If you feel pleasure,
- 36:02stay. Little by little, you'll expand
- 36:04the circle without haste.
- 36:07Re-entry into the world is a process,
- 36:10not an event. Whoever does it with
- 36:12respect for their own rhythm maintains
- 36:14the clarity conquered in the withdrawal
- 36:16and avoids the sensation of having been
- 36:18thrown back into agitation without
- 36:20preparation. And there's a change in
- 36:23empathy itself. Before it was an open
- 36:26antenna absorbing everything. After it
- 36:30becomes a sensitivity with direction.
- 36:32You still feel deeply, but you choose
- 36:34where to place your attention and you
- 36:36know how to step away when you need to.
- 36:38It's the difference between a house
- 36:40without doors and a house with well-made
- 36:43doors that open and close according to
- 36:45your will. Perhaps the greatest gift of
- 36:48this period is learning to be your own
- 36:51company. Many women at the end of
- 36:53isolation report a new intimacy with
- 36:56themselves, a sensation of being able to
- 36:58be alone without feeling lonely. This is
- 37:01the true end of loneliness. Not the
- 37:04presence of someone, but the presence of
- 37:06yourself. And when a woman learns to
- 37:08keep herself company, the bonds she
- 37:10establishes afterward stop being born
- 37:12from neediness and start being born from
- 37:15desire, which completely changes the
- 37:17quality of everything she builds.
- 37:20If everything I said today made some
- 37:22sense to you, I want to share a resource
- 37:24that might bring the clarity you've been
- 37:26looking for. You've just learned how to
- 37:28understand this intense isolation, how
- 37:31to differentiate a crossing from
- 37:32suffering that needs help, and how to
- 37:34move through the cocoon without losing
- 37:36yourself.
- 37:38But maybe there's still a question that
- 37:39lingers. Who is this person really who
- 37:42keeps crossing your mind? And how do you
- 37:45recognize with certainty whether this
- 37:47connection is genuine or just a pattern
- 37:49repeating itself? There is a tool that
- 37:52based on your energy, age, and birth
- 37:54date generates a detailed sketch of your
- 37:56twin flame, revealing physical
- 37:59characteristics, personality traits, and
- 38:01recognition signs.
- 38:03This sketch has already brought relief
- 38:05to many women who upon seeing the
- 38:07portrait realized they were holding on
- 38:10to someone who didn't match or
- 38:12recognized with clarity traits of
- 38:14someone who had been in their lives all
- 38:16along.
- 38:18The link to access it is in the first
- 38:20comment. And if you want to go deeper
- 38:22into this process of inner rebuilding
- 38:24and emotional clarity, I also recommend
- 38:27the two ebooks I mentioned earlier. 21
- 38:31days of transformation and how to
- 38:33manifest your twin flame, both available
- 38:36there. The links to both materials are
- 38:39in the first pinned comment right below
- 38:41this video. And before you go, I'd
- 38:44really like to know who was here with me
- 38:46truly until the end. Write in the
- 38:48comments the phrase, "I cross the
- 38:50silence and return whole." When you
- 38:53write, you're not just letting me know
- 38:55you're present. You're practicing in a
- 38:57concrete way the first decision this
- 38:59phase asks for, which is to trust the
- 39:01process without abandoning yourself.
- 39:05I leave you with a final image. Think of
- 39:07the new moon. For an entire night, the
- 39:10sky seems to have no moon at all.
- 39:12Whoever doesn't know the cycle might
- 39:14think it died or went away, but it's
- 39:17there whole, just turned to a side we
- 39:19don't see. It's on this moonless night
- 39:22that it renews itself. And it's from
- 39:24this dark that the first thread of light
- 39:26is born.
- 39:29The divine feminine has always been
- 39:30associated with these cycles. And maybe
- 39:33that's why women who carry this
- 39:34principle know their new moon so well.
- 39:37The isolation you're living now isn't
- 39:39the extinguishing of your light. It's
- 39:42the new moon of your soul.
- 39:45Thank you for dedicating this time to
- 39:47such a deep conversation. Thank you for
- 39:49the courage to look at what's behind the
- 39:51desire and not just at the desire. And
- 39:54thank you mainly for trusting that the
- 39:56love you're looking for begins above all
- 39:59in the way you decide to treat yourself
- 40:01starting today.
- 40:03See you in the next
