I recently had a session with a Shaman (a person who heals the soul and spirit by gaining knowledge from ancestors, spirit guides and the Earth. Bottom line, Shamans are great listeners, they listen to everything and with all senses go!) During the treatment, he listened to my body and found where the pain was stuck and why it was stuck. I will spare you the details and tell you that my heart chords were not playing a lovely song in the tune of Liz Major, instead it was slowly vibrating a pitter-patter of sorrow, loss, fear, etc.
I was instructed by this wise man to LOVE THYSELF! I thought WOW, THAT'S BRILLIANT BUT NOT SO EASY! I tend to give and give and give without giving to myself first. Therefore, I am a reflection that is bouncing off of me. In other words, and I use the Wicked Queen as a perfect example, the Queen is fine with hearing that she is the fairest one of them all, in fact that is how we ALL should feel. When she hears little sweet Snow White is the fairest, she clamors clumsily to her senses and wonders how this news can ghastly be! Shortly after she recognizes her subordinate position in the world, jealousy, envy, pride, and anxiety set in to destroy her. Her reflection in the mirror has changed and so her emotions and well-being has gone with it too.
Our energy vibrates off others like we are dolphins using our sonar and if we are not in accord with our higher self then that energy will bounce back and stick to us. In order to achieve harmony we must harmonize with our selves first! I encourage you to heal yourself through self love in order to have it reflected back to you; but of course let's still be humble and not wickedly self-centered like the Queen. Most of you know that I have a two year old little girl and she is why I have made the reference to the movie Snow White. It is now an obsession of hers but I thought how interesting, that we teach the young to be little princes and princesses so that they may see their worth and be loved as if they were Gods, Goddesses, Queens and Kings.
I challenge you this week and beyond to LOVE THYSELF REGARDLESS!
"Everything comes to us that belongs to us, if we create the capacity to receive it."
-Rabindranath Tagore Indian Poet
