This month is all about choosing to live a life that is in integrity to your values, beliefs, and intentions and fully embracing your role as co-creator of your Universe & experience so that you can harness your most potent creative power to release limiting identities and embrace your fullest expression.
Our initiation energy this month is the archetype of The Shapeshifter— also known as the trickster or magician. These energies exist within all of us to some degree or another. Consider the archetypes the building block energies of the universe, just as they are in any story.
The Shapeshifter is the side of our Selves that is slippery and noncommittal, the side that wishes to experiment and throw away all the rules. Life through the eyes of a shapeshifter is anything but soild. Kim Krans, author of The Wild Unknown Archetypes Deck reminds us that “…it is important to imagine you are looking at life through a kaleidoscope rather than a single-focus lens” because, at any moment, the vision can shift to reveal a deeper, more complex, story.
Keep your mind-heart-and soul open to see that deeper story.
It is going to take a different type of Courage to dance with the Shapeshifter this month— the kind of courage that it takes to live in integrity to your values and boundaries, to maintain the thread of your tapestry so that the masterpiece doesn’t lose coherence.
This month’s theme is going to bring you back again and again to the question what is it that you want to create? What exactly do you want your life to reflect? How do you show up for yourself? For the collective?
We have access to the potent magic of the shapeshifter— also known as the magician— the force that aids us in inspiration and creation, but if we are not brave enough to face our inner (and sometimes outer) critics and to shift the patterns that are keeping us playing small, we may never grow beyond what we’re used to.
When you choose to live a life of your own creation, you will meet resistance from within yourself and from others. Keep your Tiger’s Eye nearby as you begin to take that path through the kaleidoscope wilderness of pure possibility for courage to open up to the deeper spiritual wisdom that awaits you.
Work with your Solar Plexus Chakra for confidence in standing in and speaking your truth as you begin to shift your life and habits. Clear and rebalance this Chakra for help you with inspiration, artist’s blocks, or trouble in manifesting your next evolution.
The Blood Angel acts as our catalyst this month, bringing us the gift of more life.
One aspect of the Divine Feminine is that she craves experience and sensation, she craves life. She is our emotional, creative side, which needs expression.
A desire to connect, to cultivate and create, and to grow is going to awaken your curiosity again to really understand who you are, what you want out of life, and how you can experience that from a place of self-love over self-criticism.
Take this as an invitation to play, explore, or try something new as you dig deeper into the mystery of the You-niverse and what makes you tick.
You are the Divine come to experience and express life through this lifetime. What are you here to share, create, heal, and contribute?
We can sometimes put too much thought into this and paralyze ourselves thinking our contribution to life must be ‘important.’
Blood Angel is here to remind us that all experience of life is important in its own way. What is important isn’t the story we tell ourselves about what is or isn’t important or worthy, only that we experience it.
Our guides, those energies here to support and aid our growth, are powerful this month.
We are reminded that we hold endless possibilities within us, if only we are willing to release the go stories that limit our fullest expression. Kali reminds us of the truth of who we are — we are beyond the duality that so often presents itself within our consciousness and leaves us anxious and unsure, living half-lives rather than our full truth.
Brigid and Yemoja offer fire and water to burn and wash away the stories and ties that keep us repeating the same loops and patterns of our ancestors. These powerful energies act as Doulas to the new birth that is awaiting your permission to be formed through you — be it a new business, relationship, or way of being in the world.
What are you creating in your world this month? Let me know in the comments!
Love Always,
Amelia
