The abyss beckoned once more, drawing her in with a yearning for love, understanding, and freedom. Little did she realize that within the darkness lay enlightenment, waiting to be discovered if only she held steadfast to Earth’s magic.
She found herself ungrounded, lost, and misunderstood. But each fall into the abyss miraculously deepened her connection with the Universe and Spirit, transforming her fears into intuition. She understood the importance of voicing her fears, asking for help to protect her self-worth, and preventing premature self-sacrifice.
Having traversed this path before, she embraced the darkness as a friend rather than a foe. She held the hand of the little girl within, offering her reassurance and unity in their shared journey. Together, they delved into the depths of emotions, not to suppress them but to understand and transmute them into light.
The journey towards Earth Magic and self-discovery revealed that the darkness was not all-consuming but a catalyst for growth. By acknowledging and transforming their fears, she could find a new perspective and deeper connection with her inner self.
She is me. The moment I stopped running from the demons in my mind and instead chose to love them, saying yes to life – both shadow and light my suffering was done, and I came alive. I am beautiful and fucked up in the most beautiful way. Instead of succumbing to anger or resentment, I choose to accept my circumstances and prioritize self-care, allowing the light to shine brightly and guide me.
In the process of growth, one should not regress to familiar patterns but delve deeper to uncover new layers of self-awareness. By nurturing our inner selves, individuals could blossom on the surface, guided by a higher force and life energy that had been intricately woven into their existence.
This metamorphosis from human seedling to blooming flower is a testament to the resilience and strength found within each one of us. A reminder that even in the darkness, one can find their way to the light through self-discovery and inner transformation. It’s ok to be scared and to make mistakes. But will you choose to learn from them if the cycle keeps repeating? That’s the question I ask myself while in the chrysalis stage of my growth.
Mantra: I forgive myself over again. The universe is showing me the way and shedding skin at last.
