How do I love them and keep myself free?
answers from the deep feminine
I want to be near my family, but only in ways that I feel safe. And I don’t know what that looks like and how to balance this. Help me, Mother. How do I love them and be close with them and keep myself me?
Love daughter of our green, red Earth. You are a violet flame and you know how to turn lead into gold.
Alchemize, our girl, alchemize.
Turn the fear into gear. You know how to protect.
For many moons you’ve protected others. How do you now turn towards yourself and pick up your armor, of love, and hold steady, healing, fortuitous space?
You. Deserve. Space.
You deserve space.
You, love daughter, deserve holy, regenerative, restful, love space.
Say no. Say no. Say no.
Only say yes when you are LIT UP to do so. This is your only YES— a full body one.
Anything else slowly, in a baffling, cunning, and insidious way, takes pieces of yourself from you.
You are whole and you are strong like the mountains who now hold and soothe you.
You heal others because you know how to heal yourself.
Go now, daughter. Heal your self.
Be in love, always.
-Mother
