Shadow: Turbulence
Gift: Humanity
Siddhi: Compassion

My gift to you.

I come to celebrate your Humanity, to remind you of your innate goodness, and to reassure you that there is no feeling in you that is inherently wrong. Or bad. No matter what you’ve done or experienced in life, you are innocent at your core. What matters now is not what you feel, but what you do with your feelings. I ask you, please don’t reject your feelings or react to them. Simply acknowledge and embrace any emotional turbulence with you with compassion. Nervousness is only a sign that you have some feelings that need to be seen or embraced. Do not run from your pain, for along with your pain comes a great deal if pleasure.

Questions for contemplation:

~Where are avoiding turbulence or change in your life?
~Do you ever find it hard to relax, to let people in, or to fully welcome your sexuality?
~Do you tend to attract emotional crises?
~What feelings do you judge as being bad or shameful?
~Who are the people who can see your humanity when you can’t see it yourself?
