We all learn as we navigate the journey of our life and this morning, I learned that I am not in fact the Chinese year of the Horse at all! I was born just a few days before the Earth Horse, which makes me a Fire Snake!!! 🤯😵💫🧐 all I thought I knew about myself was thrown, in that moment, into a pot of unanswered questions 😵💫 who am I?!?! I’m not who I thought I was!!!!!
Then I pulled myself together 🙄 and in my usual questioning way, began to research 🧐
What did I find? This; In Chinese astrology, the Fire Snake is one of the most intense, charismatic, and driven combinations within the 12-year zodiac cycle.
Well that explains a little…😆🤣🥴
Then it hit me!!!!
“Hang on. My association of myself to the horse is and has always been there as the horse is one of my spirit guides, but whether I knew it or not, the Fire Snake has always been there and ‘knowing’ this actually makes no difference!
We are each our own unique selves and we each navigate in the best way we know, regardless of labels.
However, holding a gentle background awareness of ourselves can help us to have more compassion for ourselves and that awareness can aid us in accepting our human flaws, quirks, challenges….
One of my favourite quotes is “understanding negates the need for forgiveness”
Boom 💥 inner-standing
Have you ever made a shock discovery about yourself? How did that impact you?
