Allow yourself to release your notions of who you are for a new sense of self that is informed not by your preconceived notions but by your experiences in reaching this point in your life.

Going through a period of change, allow yourself to dream big dreams of your ideals while your think on the responsibilities and duties you have held.

Do not struggle against the inevitable flow of what is manifest toward dissolution and release.

New tools and knowledge become accessible as sacrifices allow passage through the formerly impassable.

While I'm no longer as skilled as I was in reading such dense prose, the gist of the essay comes across to me that Kant equates enlightenment with maturity, and defines this as the individual's choice to step out from under the authority of others. Kant's attitude is one of supporting social structures and maintaining this freedom as an academic pursuit of the mind.

One can trace the same sort of arc in personal development, and as Kant points out, those who choose to remain immature are many. To genuinely become an adult means to accept yourself as the authority of your life - and thus to also accept responsibility for the conditions of your life. If you are not willing to accept that responsibility, can you really be considered an adult, no matter your biological age? How many people are still operating under the authority of their parents, years after moving out or even the death of their parents? And what then of those parents and their parents?

In a shamanic context, concrete steps in enlightenment or maturity are marked with initiations, in which an individual accepts both the power and responsibility that comes with being granted (a degree of) personal authority. Initiations are usually highly ritualized, and they often include a very real threat of literal death with the idea of provoking a metaphorical death. In a runic context, initiation is represented by Peorth.

Allow yourself to find healing and succor from past unions.  True healing will open the future into a wide mystery by renewing possibilities.

If seeking new unions, leverage past transformations to expand your perspectives and deepend your understandings.

Transformation is within sight, but you must stick close to your path using the strengths you have developed.

Depending on how past interpersonal issues are used to spark new ideas or action, obstacles may be created ahead or paths through obstacles may be found.

Having what you need, work hard to manifest and prepare the circumstances you desire for your future.
