I am a Harry Potter fan.
Werewolves is an individual who shape shift into a wolf under the influence of the full moon. The change is involuntary. The individual loses his/her own temperament completely during the change. S/he can only come back to human form till the external impact wanes out.
Animagus is a witch or wizard through training who is able to shape-shift into an animal at their choosing and at will. They have full control of the change and the temperament embodied in any of their forms.
During the past two weeks of contraction thank to a new round of energy shedding and reorganization, I got to see how many of my conditioning ran deep in each of my vein and cell.
I saw myself incapable of commending my own thoughts and actions towards the direction I intended.
I spent so much time fighting off the inner surge of involuntary old patterns.
I was fighting not to turn into the werewolf I was taught to be under the influence of old conditioning.
➡️ How many times in daily life do we react instead of respond?
➡️ How many times do we give in to the conditioning and tell ourselves, “I can’t.”
The werewolf of people pleasing, of perfection chasing, of self-shaming, of seeking validation in others and you know there are more.
Then, I thought of how many conditionings I’ve shed ever since that day I decided I didn’t want to be depressed anymore.
I learned to be immune to the moon lights – the splurge shopping, the showing off of brand names, the desires of possessions, the constant comparing with others…
I mastered the art of shape-shifting – who and what I wanted to be when where and how and how to turn into whatever needs be and whatever I chose.
I bravely forewent what I am not in each moment – giving up the concept of one identity and being comfortable in whatever skin I chose to be in.
➡️ How many times in daily life do we wish to do differently?
➡️ How many times in life do we wish to have more choices?
We CAN do differently and DO have limitless choices.
One of the most common reasons I heard when people declined to work with me is,
“I am not sure I am ready to change.”
Oh dear, you are always changing.
The only difference is whether you are a werewolf or an Animagus.
In the past two weeks, I was on the edge of werewolfing, letting the old conditioning stopping and f!cking everything up. I was in pain.
I turned to the study of magic again, shaping into someone who can shed more of those and shifting into someone who I dream to be one step closer.
I am a werewolf by condition.
I am an Animagus by evolution.
I invite you to embrace your own evolution.
Be love and be loved.
