There are seven spiritual laws of divorce as follows:
The first and possibly the most important spiritual law is that everything is as it should be and nothing occurs by accident. We are always evolving, whether we are aware of it or not. Our lives are divinely designed for each one of us to get exactly what we need to support out own unique evolutionary process.
When we stop resisting and surrender to the situation exactly as it is, things begin to change. Resistance is the number-one culprit in denying us our right to heal. When we resist our fear that if we let go, if we surrender our lives things will get out of control or we will be faced with circumstances that we can’t handle.
God will do for you what you cannot do for yourself. When you get out of your own way and let go of your defenses, you become humble. Humility is the doorway through which the Divine can walk into your life. Our egos remain in charge until we step outside our righteous belief that we are independent and separate beings. As long as this myth is intact, we keep the door closed to our higher wisdom.
With divine guidance, we can look at exactly how we participated in and co-created our divorce drama. We begin to take responsibility for our entire situation and make peace with our past. We can see how we have chosen the perfect partner to teach us the perfect lessons.
Having taken responsibility, we can choose new interpretations that empower us. We become responsible and the designer of our own new reality. We can separate from our partner and cut the karmic cords by taking back the aspects of ourselves that we’ve projected onto our mate. We learn to act instead of react in difficult situations.
After we have cut the karmic cord, we will be able to ask to be forgiven. Asking for forgiveness allows us to let go of our judgments and beliefs about what is right and what is wrong and find compassion for our entire self. Compassion unfolds when we are in the presence of the perfection of the Universe, when we can experience ourselves in another. Once we receive compassion for ourselves, we will be able to find compassion and forgiveness for our mate.
Experiencing the freedom of forgiveness opens up the gates to new realities. Forgiveness breaks all the cords that keep us tied to the past. It allows us to experience an innocent heart filled with love and excitement for life. This is the time to create a new future, one grounded in your divine truth.
