Will The Real You Please Stand Up?
Hello Beautiful Soul,
There is a palpable shift taking place on the planet right now. We're all on some level feeling it, even if we can't name what is happening.
It is the radical collapse of thousands of years of patriarchal reign on a planet that is supremely Feminine. She's been patient as we've plundered her natural resources. She's been unconditional in her love as we've marginalized and demonized the very heart of her; her Femininity.
But she's had enough of being silenced.
What we're feeling is an all out revolution that is necessary for an all out evolution. We don't go any further under patriarchal heavy handedness. We've been stopped in our tracks and we're being asked the most important question we've ever been asked.
How much longer are we going to sacrifice our joy, health and divinity in order to maintain the veneer of okayness through externalized and superficial pursuits?
When did the clothes that we wear or our online status become more important than our connection to our beautiful and tender hearts? When did we begin sacrificing our deepest truths in order to maintain the status quo of a spiritually malnourished society? And when are we going to take off the mask?
Personally, this has hit me in tidal waves over the past few days. As a Lightworker who is deeply moved to light up my own dark crevices and simultaneously hold space for those around me to do the same, I have come to see that I had circumvented the yearnings of my own Soul.
She has come to me again and again and told me to slow down, take time in nature, cry, unravel, be quiet and simply be okay with ME. She has found beautiful ways to remind me of my worth, that we are all worthy; that we've never had to fight for what we inherently are. She has reminded me that we're not here to be workhorses in order to have more "stuff."
In that, we've utterly missed the boat.
So, I've had to go back (yet again) to the drawing board. I've had to take myself out, Al Capone style, and soften back into my own heart to the part of me that exists beyond time and space; to the part of me that is already whole and complete; to the part of me who is flowering back into herself.
The masked Soul is one that needs to airbrush, smile when sad, push when exhausted and pretty up her life in order to cover-up what is assumed to be deficient.
But this world is deeply paradoxical. It is like an upside-down world in which everything is backwards and deeply fucked up when not seen through the heart's lens.
When we step back, step out of the model of unworthiness and inadequacy and look through Love's eyes, we can see an entirely different picture. We get very clear on our individual and unique unfolding here. We inevitably do LESS, not more. We stop distracting ourselves with social media and television and alcohol and drugs and clothes and things that we think will pretty up a deficient life.
We realize that our Soul's journey is both a beautifully painful and deeply joyful unfolding towards our own authentic nature. And how that unfolding manifests is up to the Heart of you.
But we've ignored her for so long. She's layered up with narratives that are simply not us, with clothes that attempt to cover pain, alcohol that tries to numb truths, food that aims to sweeten a life that is seen as 'not enough.'
Can we stop?
Can we simply come home to our own vulnerable and wise Hearts through five or ten minutes of quiet contemplation a day? Can we ask what our Soul is yearning for? Longing for? Can we get really, really honest with ourselves?
The Divine Feminine is here; she's re-emerged from the corner the patriarchy has put her in. The patriarchy that has pushed us and driven us and hardened our soft edges. She's telling us...
Enough...all of this outward fixation is done. Come in. Come home. It's time.
It begins today. Now. No more hiding from your Heart.
In love, joy & surrender,
