A possibility... Things move in seasons. They cycle. It would be nice and tidy if the seasons moved in order, but they often move out of order. I think that is part of the reason we struggle so often. We expect something to arise, grow, be harvested and then cease, but we sometimes try to harvest when it is time for growth. We hold on and expect growth when it is time to stop and rest. We lose sight of what season we are in and it gets confusing as various parts of our lives can be in different seasons all at the same time.

That said, I wonder if this idea of yours is a creative winter of sorts. It may be time to let old things die away. It may be time to rest and stop spinning your wheels. Ultimate creative death is a possibility I guess, but it is inconsistent with the natural flow of the universe. I personally find it impossible and painful to push against forces like that for extended periods of time.

The thing about winter is you can view it as the time when things die. That's valid. You can view it as a void. However, it is also a time to recycle. It is a time to regather the energy that was poured out in the last cycle. It is a womb. It is a time to sleep and dream and allow the ideas for the next cycle to come forth.

After a nice long rest, the winter progresses into a second phase. It can be a time to redesign. To take stock of what worked well, what failed and how things can be different in the future. To get ready to plant the seed of something new in the spring.

I'm with you on the idea of dying out creatively, but nothing is ever created or destroyed. It is always in motion. It morphs. I hold faith this can be a transitional period for you. You deserve to rest peacefully and then your creativity will reawaken in whatever form is meant to be. Don't force it. Just follow your instinct and give yourself what you need in this moment. The winter.
