FEAR OF WITCHES AND HOW TO DEAL WITH NEGATIVITY

"The only way to come into an experience of infinite love, a really big, open-hearted love is to get rid of fear." -Desiree Dunbar

If you're being called a witch, how do you feel about the term?

From the 1400's through to the 1800's, healers, priestesses and such were referred to as witches. They were burned, hanged, and murdered for practicing healing through divine energies. We have to note that this was necessary at a time when resources were limited. Our ancestors had to use herbal remedies and energetic healing as a means of medicine yet they were eradicated for this. Since then, there were negative connotations attached to the word witches.

Looking back at our history, there are three wounds that have emerged from it, held in our collective consciousness - betrayal, submission, and terror. If you were a witch that was persecuted, it is evident that you were betrayed by somebody from your community who ratted you out. Then, there's submission where you were forced to submit to people in power. Women were oppressed for a long time. Lastly, there's terror - the worst form of fear. We can only imagine that people who were persecuted, experienced immense terror.

This collective consciousness becomes thought forms like a cloud floating, a looming energy of feeling around. And it's challenging not to be affected by that rage. As women of sensitive nature, we tend to absorb other people's feelings, but specifically, we're feeling this wound for women. Nonetheless, I encouraged you to allow the healing energies to come in to start to shift this from the DNA of your body, so that you can open up to new levels of freedom.

The fear is coming from way back the ancestry through our bloodlines yet we are still experiencing the same wounds today. Have you ever been betrayed by your friends, loved ones, or even in relationships? How about being repressed to submit to a hierarchical power? Have you ever felt the need to release that? And even the echo of terror can be felt through time. It's almost like a repetitive pattern throughout this lifetime and you can feel this immense hurt but you can't understand why. Therefore, I think we can all agree that we must release the fear and let go of negativity.

Here are two things you can do to keep the negativity out on a practical level:

1. Learning how to ground to bring universal energy down and retrieve your own energy.
2. Minding your aura and energy field as a way of deepening into new layers of consciousness.

So the concept is, as we're out in the world, we leave little bits of ourselves behind and in those interactions, energy is also left behind. At the end of the day, you would want to kind of feel into that and then invite those parts to come back. How are you going to do that? Bring the earth energy up, bring that feeling into your body along with Mother Gaia- the most unconditional, motherly love. Then, bring universal energy down, the energy from above the heavens and the sky. Mindfully, slowly, in meditation, you're re-balancing. You've got the earth, you've got the sky, the mother and father archetype within you. And then you're going to, retrieve your energy. Let your energy come back to support the authentic expression of yourself. Then, giving away and letting go of what you cannot control. You don't need negativity, so let it go.

Have you ever felt that when your energy field is open, different people start connecting with you? This is what happens when communicating with people, even if they are not yelling, they are pushing their words, they are pushing their energy into your space and they can even do that without speaking. Thus, you have to remember that you can't control what people do, but you can control how you respond energetically. You get to decide what goes in and through your energy field. You are going to get stronger as you are more aware of your aura and field of energy. Whenever you feel like your mind is cluttered, give yourself a check with your energy and get your energy back into alignment with yourself and get other people's energies out.

Everybody is on their spiritual journey. Everybody has their own spiritual gift. Each has its own karma, the same capability to connect to universal energies and sacred energies, whether they're aware of it or not. So our role is to know ourselves and to heal ourselves. Always remember that your magic is inside of you and it is worth so much. It is so valuable. No one can take that away from you because it's inside of you. Then, master your skills so that you can be supporting not only yourself, your family, your community, but on a global level as well. Send those ripples of healing through time and space, and even dimensions and support in the community.
