In researching cycles I came across an article that stated that a human goes through eight phases of life… Conception, Birthing, Sprouting, Growth, Flowering, Fruiting, Renewal and Transcendence. As I read it I applied the eight changes of life spoken about to one’s purpose, vision and/or assignment.
Phase One – Conceiving
The phase of conception where the idea of your purpose, vision and/or assignment becomes a possibility of matter, of taking form in this physical reality
Phase Two – Birthing
The phase of birthing is where the purpose, vision and/or assignment gain strength, nutrition and love from the individual carrying it. And we know this happens through our faith, our belief. Through us seeing it and speaking it, which at some point gives the purpose, vision/assignment the viability to be born. The seed in us becomes alive and takes a tangible form.
This is why it is so vitally important to connect, especially in marriage, with someone and/or those (if single or in a place of leadership) who have the capacity for what you carry, especially if what you are carrying is great. For just as the man sows natural seed in woman to create the same happens with purpose, vision and/or assignment. The one with the purpose, vision/assignment makes a deposit of it to those connected to them, and it is a responsibility of those connected to them to assist in strengthening, nurturing and loving what they carry to its birth. Therefore, if the individual we connect ourselves to does not have the capacity for what we carry it can hinder, prolong and possibly lead to a miscarriage or a still birth. It matters who assists in the birthing process.
Phase Three – Sprouting
In the phase of sprouting the purpose, assignment and/or vision is at its most vulnerable stage. It has been birthed but it hasn’t been brought to full maturity. It is fragile, innocent, and at the mercy of those handling it. This phase must be handled with care. And because the purpose, assignment and/or vision is making its first appearance we must understand that it may not look exactly how we saw it when carrying it.
Phase Four – Growing
The growth phase consists of both rooting and leafing. It is here that the foundational principles are set and practiced. Strong roots (foundations) are put down into the soil, the environment, or the community in order to draw the nutrients and resources needed for the purpose, assignment and/or purpose to grow and live. It is here that doors of opportunity open and connections are made.
Phase Five - Flowering
The phase of flowering is the signal that the purpose, assignment and/or vision are prepared to bring forth fruit and that production is done. Growth has given way to maturity and now it is clear what is possible, as well as what is likely to come. It is in this phase you begin to see the budding of Harvest.
Phase Six - Fruiting
The phase of fruiting is the phase of Harvest. It is here that your purpose, assignment and/or vision is now able to create offspring, feed others and conceive new purpose, assignment and/or vision. It is here that you will see your purpose, assignment and/or vision producing what it was set to accomplish in the Earth.
Phase Seven - Renewal
It is interesting that phase seven is seen as a phase of renewal. We all know that seven marks the number of completion. Something being completed, something coming to a defined end, and something else ready to begin. It is here that often times the purpose, assignment and/or vision, after it is functioning on its own, will begin to take on a new form. One aspect of the purpose, assignment and/or vision has been completed and now it is time for another aspect of that purpose, assignment and/or vision to function. And this will cause for re-evaluation and a possible change in operation and people.
Phase Eight - Transcendence
In this phase, the article, of course spoke about death. However, I choose to look at this phase as the phase of legacy. It is here that the purpose, assignment and/or vision should continue on even after your time has expired. It is here that the mantle gets passed to the next generation to pick up and continue on in.
