April, make room for the new: the right days for decluttering and space clearing

With decluttering and space clearing this impulse of renewal and new energy can also be poured into our homes.

The "Easter cleaning" or spring cleaning has always been characterized - in our imagination and also in practice - as an important, profound "attack" against the dirt left by winter. It is a practical ritual, a "vulgar" translation of more "subtle" knowledge: opening everything, letting the air circulate widely again not only between rooms but also between things, has precisely this sense of "passing over" and starting a next cycle.

Decluttering e Space clearing

With the decluttering and space clearing this impulse of renewal and new energy - which brought us the coming Spring and Easter - can also be poured into our homes: it will not only benefit the vitality of the environments in which we live but more generally our life; and it will be all the more true the more we do it consciously.

This is an important point: a good reorganization and "lightening" of the contents of your home can be done in two ways, namely as the famous "Luisa" (star of a well-known commercial years ago, which started early and ended early ), very focused only on the result, without putting too much "thought" into it but automatically, or it can become a moment of personal work. And then it is necessary to listen to one's relationship with things, objects and then choose from time to time to leave, change, throw away: cleaning thus becomes a conscious choice that crosses and also includes other emotional, relational levels.

Whichever way you choose to do it, it's time to do it anyway decluttering: let's get rid of what you don't need to be objects, clothes, things, souvenirs, tools and whatever else is in your home “around”, in every area, function, location of the house (but also only in your own room).

Caution: it's not about throwing everything away, to cancel memories, to have an aseptic and perfect home like the ones you see in the furniture sales catalogs but to stop and consider, really, realistically, what you can let go (throwing, giving away, selling or maybe creatively transforming into something else useful; of course it is important that these choices are made in a short time and do not become - due to the difficulty of putting them into practice - an excuse to continue to hold back, to hold, not to let go).

The benefits: with no more physical and energetic obstacles, things, projects, ideas, encounters, opportunities can enter the space (symbolic and concrete) freed up. New.

Decluttering is usually followed by a good operation of space clearing, or rather energetic cleaning of the environments. There are two practices that are easy and accessible to anyone: the first is ventilate widely every day the premises, letting in as much as possible the light. The second is a good and healthy classic cleaning with water (if possible before exposed to the sun for a few hours, with the intention of "impregnating" it with the transforming information of its rays) and natural, non-chemical ingredients.

What are the best days of April 2021 to start this kind of cleaning and decluttering work? If we want to be supported by the lunar rhythm, the most suitable periods are in falling moon (from 01 to 11 April and from 28 to 30 April.)
