The year of the snake 🐍
This year for me has definitely been a year of shedding!! Hence why I’ve been a lil quiet on here recently 😅 I’m gonna dive quite deep here so hear me out..
This last year, I’ve found myself being forced into corners and avenues that I probably never wanted to face! We all have those parts within us that we shy away from, we stay disconnected, because the thought of facing the shadow sides of ourselves, is ultimately one of the scariest things (personal opinion)!!
This last year for me was roughhhhhh!! I’d recently come out as q***r (something I’d been suppressing for the longest time), recognised and got a diagnosis of my neurodivergence, which made sense of a lot of things- repeated patterns and struggles I never understood, lack of self care but on the other hand being the biggest people pleaser, so much more!! Just experienced sooooo much change, which the tism did not know what to do with 😅 but overall,
I had realised that the year of the snake helped me shed the old version of me which I had created as a shield, to protect me against myself. The real version of me that always lived within!
Looking back, I have released and worked though a lot of situations where I felt less than, or for allowing myself to be undermined. I have slowly but surely come into a more confident version of accepting who I am, realising the importance of self acceptance and that the shadow was never scary!!
I can’t lie, riding the wave was hard and tiring!! But like any self development and shadow work, you’re always faced with challenge!
I’m sooo grateful for the lessons learnt and boundaries that have been formed, but most importantly, the self acceptance and love I feel for the person I always was! 💛✨
How was your year of the snake? 🐍 And how ready are you for the year of the horse? 🐎 ✨
