The transitions of life are moments when people reach their limits, where they cross thresholds. Life seems to be condensed in such events. It is interesting to note that every transition is strongly linked to a symbolism of death. Every birth is always also an event "between life and death". As a child grows up, the child "dies" on one level. At the end of his life, the dying person is confronted very concretely with his physical death. The way a man dies, he lives. These moments of "death", of "transformation", precisely where life demands from us a step into the unknown, are particularly suitable for tracking down "life" in all its depth.

In the Patriarchate's state of consciousness, death is strongly denied and rejected. He is perceived there as a cruel and irrevocable separation. That is why it is so difficult for people today to find a positive relationship to dying, especially in everyday life - the many "small deaths" that are important for maturing in life. In the state of consciousness of the matriarchate, death is an important aspect of life, which is in constant change. Death is a transition, a transformation in the cycle of life.
