Underworld Quote by Jane Meredith
““There is usually a huge relief that accompanies being in the Underworld, when we have done a thorough Descent. It is impossible to explain this properly before it happens. All that trauma, relinquishing everything at gate after gate and then – how can there be peace? How stillness? How serenity? Everything else has run out, been used up, paid as a price to enter this place and there is nothing left.””
