When it’s time to let go of a situation, most people are in one or more of the following categories:

* They’re not ready to accept the fact they actually have to do something.
* They don’t want to because they feel "comfortable" in the dwell mode.
* They’re afraid to let go for fear that they won’t have the choice in the end.
* The only thing important in their life is that particular situation.
* They believe that everything is set in stone anyway, so why bother.

First things first: not everything is set in stone. If it were, then there would be no probable cause in me writing ANY of these articles. Spirit wouldn’t be imploring me to force these issues. Keep in mind, we can’t MAKE you believe and we won’t even bother to try to convince you. You’ll get your proof in due time. In order to be successful in getting out of the whole dwelling cycle, you must alleviate all of the excuses stated above from your thought process.

What Is Drifting?
The drifting mode is when one is coming out of the Dangle mode and getting ready to enter the Dwindle mode. This motion can cause a lot of Energy Shifts between two or more people. An energetic shift is a simplified way of explaining the "release of stress" resulting from energy stored inwardly. When one let’s go of a person, for example, they’re allowing them to energetically "breathe", grow, release negativity and make the changes needed in effort to re-align their path(s).

Once the letting go process is in full force and the other person releases their portion of negative energy, the effects begin. If you’re the one who’s letting go, you’ll start to FEEL the energy shifts, much like an earthquake. This can cause emotional alarm if you don’t know how to handle it. In effort to understand this process, you need to know about earthquakes An earthquake is the movement or shaking of the ground caused by an abrupt shift in the Earth’s plates. Usually this occurs on the border (fault) of the two plates (dangle and dwindle). The plates shift when there has been an accumulation of stress within the rock that needs to be released. When the energy exceeds the strength of the plates, the release of the pent up energy causes the rock to break suddenly and allow shifts in the Earth’s surface to occur.

So what does this mean for you? When the person you’re letting go of releases all this energy, you’re bound to "pick up" on it. Meaning that you may start to actually FEEL the shift of this person making changes in their life spiritually, emotionally and physically. What they’re actually doing is sending back all the crap you’ve delivered to them with your dwelling thoughts, words and actions. I know this is gross, but think about vomiting for a second.

When you’re constantly sending someone your worries, begging thoughts and depression, their "spiritual stomach" will be full and feel unsettled. Kind of like food poisoning. The only thing they can think of is how nauseous they are and what they can do to get rid of the nasty feeling. So they puke up all the food. (your energy) they couldn’t fully digest. In essence, what you put out you get back for sure. Better out than in if you ask me.

The Feelings One May Encounter in the Drifting Mode
An Energy Shift is much like a transitional phase and essentially the FEELINGS will be close to the same. Here are the primary ways you will know there is a shift in the energy of a situation:

* You may feel you can‘t find a clear direction in life at that time.
* You "all of the sudden" feel that there has been a negative change in your bottom line.
* You’re getting synchronicities all over the place, yet you can’t hear your intuition or guides clearly.
* You begin to feel depressed for no apparent reason.
* You may get random panic attacks regarding your own well being or the person you were dwelling on.

Keep in mind that NOT ALL people who go through the letting go process enter the drifting mode. Most who do are not empathically protecting themselves from other people’s energy in general, nor are they completely letting go of their situation to begin with. Here are some quick ways to protect yourself energetically:

* Envision yourself inside a glass or metal dome when you wake up in the morning. Bubbles will do just fine, however, they pop and not many people will remember to replace their bubble throughout the day.

* Meditate and ask your guides for assistance. Meditation in general will alleviate a lot of the negative energy, but when you ask the healing guides to come through; they’ll clean up the pieces you missed.

* Keep those positive thoughts flowing on a consistent basis. The minute you fall back into the "I can’t, it’ll never happen for me, why is this happening, or I’m afraid" thought process, you’re back to square one. God may even pull the square underneath you when you’re not looking, so be careful and pay attention

Those who DON‘T enter the mode are simply too busy to acknowledge anything outside of their NEW AND IMPROVED stove. They consistently remain on burner #1. They are constantly aware of their thoughts, words or actions and do not allow themselves to be insecure or lose track of why they‘re letting go.

Don’t Be Paranoid, Be Aware
There is always a Pro and Con in everything we do in life. The effects of letting go are just the "little" lessons we must complete in order to prove, not only to ourselves but to Spirit, that we can handle anything that approaches our path; planned or not. Please do not use this as yet another excuse to not let go of your situation. It’s ALWAYS in your highest good to allow God and the other person to breathe. If they person can’t breathe and the opportunity dies, what good did your dwelling do anyway?

If you become paranoid about falling into the drifting mode, rest assured you’re just conjuring up more negative thoughts that will back to bite you in the ass eventually. Just be aware of what you’re putting out to the Universe, have faith in yourself and have a blast formulating the new you.
