There is an energetic clearing happening and though it may feel like the energy is diminishing it appears to me like a wave retracting back to the ocean. That means it is only moving out temporarily and in the vision I saw it is taking clutter and refuse with it. Your foundation is still intact and solid but some of the things built on top of it are no longer what is needed there. This is what is clearing at this time. It's as if many embellishments were made, a facade was created and now they are disheveled and in some cases becoming a hazard. This is when those implements get pulled off and you realize what lies beneath, the original framework and decoration is more aligned with you now.
What is actually happening is you are being urged to retrace your steps and figure out when and why you added too much, when the decorations veered off from being a reflection of you and became that facade meant to please others. To convince those in your life that you are deserving and worthy of attention, care, and respect.
Through this process you will rediscover that the things beneath are still valuable or perhaps it is better to say, have always been valuable. It was your faith in them that changed their value and only that. This is an organic return to yourself. Retrace your steps, if you used to dance, dance again. If you used to create art, create art again. Go back to any aspect of yourself you lost in the shuffle of trying to fit in better. If it doesn't resonate it is okay to leave it behind as long it is what you feel and not your worry of how it will look to others influencing that decision.
It is not so much recovering these things that are important. It is more of a revisiting and recollecting those aspects that are still within you and still important and still amazing. It's recapturing the certainty and even internal power you felt when you did these things and to also see what of those aspects you have evolved.
Don't worry about the retraction, try to recover the once lost treasures of yourself before the tide comes in again.
