I believe we are here to become. Become our most true selves, become more authentic, become closer to Source/Goddess/God/Nature, become our best selves, become real, become… In this process we unlearn almost everything we were conditioned with over time, and we re-pattern into who we came here to be – becoming is a life long journey, and it’s my why, and the reason I love what I do and share it with the world.
Transformation is a breaking down of all aspects that should break down. It’s also a journey of unlearning. The process of transformation consists almost entirely of decay. Decay is a natural process of nature and Life, therefore to truly live, we must allow the decay of what’s not serving us. We must surrender to it.
Our conditioning
We are all conditioned in this life. It’s a natural part of living as a human being on this planet. The challenge is to become aware of the conditioning we carry and to unlearn, unravel and re-pattern, and relearn new ways.
So how do we begin the process of unraveling from the conditioning?
Intuitive power
We are all intuitive, we are all psychic… Yes, truly. We have just forgotten this power (or more accurately, we’ve been conditioned out of it).
Ever felt something is off about a situation, a place, someone? That’s your psychic ability telling you something is not right.
Ever just known that you have to do something, although logically it doesn’t make sense? That’s your intuitive power working its magick nudging you in the right direction.
The situations above are just the tip of the iceberg of our inner wisdom always there to guide and support us.
If we truly want to unravel conditioning, tapping into our intuitive power and inner wisdom is crucial and very important to remember and become our most authentic true selves.
Shadow work alchemy
I love calling it shadow alchemy. Because the process of shadow work starts an inner alchemy process inside.
Shadow work is in my opinion THE way towards our intuitive power and psychic abilities. We cannot tap into this innate, but conditioned, wisdom within if we skip over the shadow work, because through shadow work we de-condition this aspect.
But what is shadow work really you ask?
Shadow work is a psychological and spiritual practice that was introduced by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung. It involves the process and practice of acknowledging and exploring the hidden, unconscious aspects of our personality, known as our “shadow.”
These hidden aspects can be made up of repressed thoughts, feelings, memories, patterns that we repeat in our lives over and over, and desires that we have pushed deep into our subconscious over time.
These aspects can be both positive and negative, but they typically represent aspects of ourselves that we have deemed unacceptable or inappropriate.
So shadow work is not just about negative aspects, it can even be positive traits (like being very artful and creative) that we have suppressed because at one point someone said something that made us turn away from this positive trait…
Just think about it for a moment… Maybe you have a desire to do and be something but are too afraid to because ‘what will others think?’
I’ve written a post about Unearthing the Hidden Self: Understanding and Practicing Shadow Work.
Ancestral wisdom
We each come from a lineage of ancestors. And this lineage holds wisdom.
This wisdom is still part of your DNA, in every cell of your body. That’s why learning about our ancestry is a vital part in the process of becoming our most authentic selves and re-patterning our conditioned ways.
Learning about our lineage also supports us in tapping into wisdom and medicine that we are here to bring to this world.
Perhaps you feel drawn to herbalism or healing? It might be that you have ancestors that were medicine women, midwives, or helped people in some way… Even being very creative is a ‘medicine’. If you feel the nudge towards art, crafts and using your hands to make something, it can be because in your lineage you have ancestors that were craftsmen/women, and they used their gifts for the benefit of their community.
Listen to these messages and nudges…
Our blueprint
We each came with a unique energetic blueprint. When we are born, the date, time and location of our birth gives us a snapshot of universal elements at that exact moment in time and this snapshot acts as a guide (or a treasure map) into our potential and magick in this lifetime.
Using the guidance of this treasure map we gain deep wisdom about ourselves. It supports the deepening of our intuitive power, it helps us with our shadow work and even points us to ancestral wisdom we are ready to unlock.
The systems I use in my work as a tranformational mentor are Human Design and Gene Keys, with a spot of Astrology too (although I am not an astrologer), which I combine with meditation, shadow alchemy, Rose shamanism and energy healing. You can read more about Human Desgn and Gene Keys and how they work together.
We didn’t come here without guidance. We each have an inner guidance system, as well as an energetic blueprint map, and our work here is to remember we have the power to become our most true and authentic selves by delving into these wisdoms and allow it to guide us towards this becoming.
The journey
And then one day you realise it’s a journey…
It’s a commitment of becoming, of surrendering to the unknown at times so you can become more YOU.
We each have our own why, and our own essence we are here to bring to the tapestry of life. Each of us a unique puzzle piece.
The only constant is change, and therefore seeing our lives as a journey we make this journey through life more enjoyable.
Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive. Because what the world needs is more people who have come alive. – Steven Kotler
The journey is about coming alive! What makes you come alive? That is your why. Become this…
This is MY why. Change and transformation makes me come alive, and it’s why I will always be sharing about it, talking about it, being a mentor of transformation, because it’s in my blueprint to bring change, to BE the change, to be alive in this life. My ancestors were medicine women, and I am this too.
If you resonate with this, and know there’s MORE to you, book a connection call with me. I would love to meet you.
