The Full Moon in Aries is upon us today, along with some challenging aspects, including a conjunction to Chiron, the wounded healer.
Aries is a Fire sign ruled by Mars and the energies associated with these are: drive, passion, will, courage, ego, anger, activism, boundaries, initiation, aggression, rage and violence to name a few.
This is some intense stuff we are dealing with and the shadow side seems to be what is primarily rising to the surface.
What is being triggered within you?
Where might you be feeling limited or restricted in your life and
what feelings are they bringing to the surface?
For me, I have been battling with speaking my truth. Not on a superficial level but on a deeper level, that only makes sense, if one takes the time to understand its origin and explore where it is coming from.
Here is a sample of what I wrestle with in my mind…
What they said to me is no big deal. Let it go. (Logical mind rationalizing)
But it triggered something deeper in me and I don’t like how it feels. (Feeling a triggered wound)
But if I say something, they might dismiss me as being sensitive, overreacting or even worse, pull away from me (aka love me less). Is it really worth it? (Wounded behavior/patterns)
See, it isn’t worth bringing up so I will just “let it go”. It is better to keep it to myself than deal with the fallout. (Logical mind again/avoidance)
Then two main things happen as a result….
My body begins to experience feelings of mounting frustration, anxiety and agitation because I chose not to speak the truth about how I was feeling (being out of integrity with Self and failing to create healthy boundaries with others).
and
The other person’s behavior towards me continues, triggering/provoking the wound even more, and setting the stage for a potentially bigger fallout to occur. This could all be avoided with open communication, compassion and understanding.
It may feel as if there are risks involved in standing up for what you need and allowing your voice to be heard, but…
If the risks are centered around fears of rejection, judgement, abandonment, loss etc., then it is safe to say the origin of that risk resides in a past wound or trauma that needs to be identified, processed and integrated.
This can be challenging to navigate and…
The more we practice, not only standing in and speaking our truth, but also identifying the origin of our wounds/triggers/shadows, the more whole we become in who we are. Through this process we teach others how we deserve to be treated, creating healthier boundaries and stronger relationships.
Healing begins within.
As we heal individually, we heal collectively.
The ripple effects are far reaching.
Now I want to hear from you!
How are you navigating the energy this week? What energies are rising to the surface?
Wishing you love and peace as you navigate your path forward.
Blessings and hugs,
Tania
