Lies My Ego Told Me...

IT’S NOT FEMININE TO SHOW STRENGTH...and other lies my ego told me.

It’s not a secret at this point that I connect to deities. Many of the ones I worked with at the beginning of my awakening have made their way back to me and Artemis is one of them. I took myself through one of my Artemis sessions yesterday, where I connected deeply for any messages from her and then did emotional clearing around STRENGTH, DIRECTION, and CHOICE. I spoke about my experience around my direction clear yesterday.

The unhealthy pattern I pulled around STRENGTH:

Age 6- Discontent

Age 12- Dread

Age 16- Shyness My shyness is what rooted this pattern in place. Certainly at 16, I was grappling with what it meant to be feminine. I remember waking up on my 16th birthday incredibly disappointed; I bought the “sweet 16” story hook, line and sinker. I was heartbroken that a miracle hadn’t occurred in my sleep to make me a beautiful, thin princess. (The truth was that the number on the scale was less than it had ever been in middle school!) I didn’t care about being strong; it wasn’t feminine to be strong. I wanted to be THIN.

Dread at 12 was about having to proverbially pull myself up by my bootstraps, calling upon my own inner strength, to honor all of the commitments that I made and finish out the school year strong; it was a pretty intense extracurricular schedule I had set up for myself! Discontent at 6 had to do with a realization that I would never be rescued from my situation in the way of the princesses; I had to find a way to be strong AND feel feminine.

In clearing that pattern for myself, and in combination with the emotional intensity of this Full Moon, I have been able to see the strength in my own softness.

Yes, this work is a little bit about connecting with a Goddess. But it is mostly about HEALING. Do you often feel the need to be strong?

A lack of direction?

Constriction...feeling like you don’t have a choice?
