2.  2.  LIMBO.

Typically this is the longest-lasting and most difficult portion of the journey. We experience the disintegration of our former identity, though we have not yet incorporated the new one.

Common feelings during the Limbo phase include

                           *EMPTINESS*   *ANXIETY *    *AMBIVALENCE*    * ISOLATION*     *CHAOS*

3.  BEGINNING

        During this time, there is a strong sense of hope and renewal. 

                        At the Beginning phase, we typically experience

        RE-INTEGRATION of our new  circumstances with our sense of  self and world view

        MASTERY of a new role as we gain comfort and greater facility within the new set of

                            circumstances

        RENEWAL:  A newly re-integrated sense of self leads to liberation and greater fulfillment.
