Liminal is from the Latin word ‘limen’, which means threshold.  A liminal space is the time between ‘what was’ and ‘next.’ It is a place of transition, a time of waiting and not knowing the future.

Richard Rohr describes this space as, “where we are betwixt and between the familiar and the completely unknown. There alone is our old world left behind, while we are not yet sure of the new existence. That’s a good space where genuine newness can begin.”

The problem is, a liminal space does not typically feel good.  

Most people feel completely overwhelmed and confused when going through a major life change.  They feel raw, vulnerable and uncertain.  And most of us, if we’re honest, will take just about any answer to get out of the discomfort that comes with a liminal space.
