Re: Owning your power and stepping into it.
Whilst watching Disneys new hit Mufasa last night ,I had a higher voice pop in to throw me a new perspective to integrate.
Not only to integrate but to share with you all.
If you have seen the movie this might make more sense, if you have not - I do recommend.
*spoiler*
A newly “ stray “ lion cub finds himself trapped in new land , within a new tribe . Knowing deep within himself - where he came from and what he was here to do . Over time forgetting his role, and his purpose.
Surrounded by a tribe that did not believe or see in Mufasa’s full potential.
This aided in mufasa being small.
Playing the role that was projected upon him.
For years, not realizing he was unable to not only notice but step into his potential purely due to who he was surrounded by and what they believed.
Only to notice after life circumstances, mishaps, adventures, falters his true essence - his power.
Yet, he still faught the belief he could step out of his typecast and played small to fit in , to feel safe .
But the universe always had other plans for Mufasa. He was to be alpha - to be king.
And regardless of the projections , regardless of the other characters trying to distract him into forgetting his essence. Mufasa continued to allow his true self , eventually stepping into his power.
Into his mission, into what he was born to do.
Lead.
Once he shifted his surroundings inclusive of some of his most treasured - he was able to see his full potential.
I share this with you because we have all been in relationships and situations that condoned us to mask, play small & dimm our light - or projected on us that we needed too to fit in.
I share this perspective because we all have a purpose and a mission and an essence that is ours and ours alone .
Make sure you surround yourself with people who bring that out in you. People who want to see you rise, even if it means change.
Be aware of the situations or relationships that require you to show up smaller, that require you to fit in other people’s boxes of projections and expectations .
And , remember we can’t hate ourselves into change .
That’s where love comes in, and if you struggle to find that within yourself surround yourself with people who bring out your joy not your survival.
Find your inner Lion, and let it roar.
Your tribe may struggle to find you, if you don’t.
Heck you might struggle to remember who you are, if you don’t.
Let’s make the last half of 2025 about allowance .
Allowance of self. Even if that means , the allowing yourself to let go of things you thought you never could.
If after all the sessions, all the forgiveness and all the work you find you are still struggling to move .
I urge you to look at the players and the experiences that are your normal - perhaps there is something there you’ve out grown that is holding you back .
If you are finding that you are in a huge state of purging. Purging hobbies, people, belongings - purging all the things….
Give yourself grace , feel the feelings , process the emotions, pull out the negative talk, look at the projections put onto you and witness.
Witness , feel , process and choose.
Find the strength acquired and allow the grievances required to release and rebound .
When nothings working, find the courage to change everything.
You are not alone.
This is a collective purge x
With love,
