Cracked Open to Create Anew

Sometimes the birth of the new require being open to the dark riches of emotions within, which can have us experiencing breakdowns and breakthroughs, and the feeling of being cracked open. And with this, potential emerges and we come out of our shell and what has confined us to create anew. To me, this is what these last few days have felt like, and not surprisingly when I think that the Aries NewMoon connected to change-the-pattern Uranus and from-the-depths Pluto.

Have you had similar feelings/experiences?
