✨ Be. Receive. Give thanks. ✨
What does it mean to receive? To be fully in your feminine? For a long time, a friend who’s known me well would say to me “You are so feminine but your energy has always been led by the masculine.” That was tough for me to swallow. Frankly, I had no idea what they meant. I may have felt an unease arise from the struggle of confusion. I feel feminine. I look feminine. How am I not embodying my femininity?
I had the honor of meeting someone who saw right through me, and their words were “You need to live your life for you.” I didn’t understand what they meant right away, but I do now. Through our relationships, we develop roles. They are unconscious, mostly because most of us are living our lives by the programming that we’ve created through life and our experiences, day by day. I started to think about the words and how they resonated and I understood that my role has been one of the masculine, in an important relationship that has dictated my actions and who I am today. Maculine energy is one of giving. Feminine energy is one of receiving. I am now faced with the question of “How do I show up in my femininity?” The truth is I’m not exactly sure of all the ways just yet, but I think the first thing that comes up for me is… is allowing myself to take up all the space I need, without guilt for being who I am. To love myself fully for all the things I am, and am not. To be unapologetically myself… I know that my journey now is one of exploring that energy more and more each day.. I am just so grateful that I’ve started it…
