You can be forgiven for thinking that the term ‘Dark Night of the Soul’ is a new age one. I know I did. However it is in fact a life and spiritual experience that has been around since the 16th century and likely a long time before then as well. The Dark Night of the Soul is an intense spiritual awakening bought about by a disconnection from one’s own source of love and divinity. It can and often is frightening, difficult, isolating, lonely and come about with a deep experience of depression and anxiety as well. My guest on The Priestess Podcast today – Emily Ghosh Harris – has had a Dark Night of the Soul – as have I. Emily shares with us her journey and some beautiful tips on how if you are experiencing one too you can gently ease your way through it to greater connection and joy on the other side.
