Hi Melissa -
In a forum, you usually post what your question, concern or problem is - then others will respond according to their belief system and/or experiences.

What is the problem?

I find it best to keep everything as simple as possible. I believe the saying 'dark night of the soul' is describing internal change/transformation. The experience is unique to the person having the experience. It can last years or days and many or most do not have it at all. The focus has to be on you. Everything is about you and can be overwhelming. The simple action is to accept but it is the most difficult of all things to do. Everything passes. It's really a series of experiences that lead from one to the next all guiding you to you. Regards

PM means Private Message. You click on the person's name and then click "send private message". That person, and not the whole forum, will get your message.

Hi sorry PM means private message, My personal "Dark Night of the Soul" has been filled with joys and lows, periods of confussion and periods of clarity, so far the best language I have found which makes sense to me is , somewhat what Christ experienced on the cross, ie) like a cruicifixtin , fllowed by days in a dark pit, then days of joy :-) "spiritual alchemy" also is someting i am relating too as well

there is a great deal on line from others who have also experienced the dark night of the soul, if you want to research it
