Feminine Witches - Is Your Shadow Distracting You To Not Take Action In Your Soul Biz? [Part 2 of 4]
“The deep work is to find and LOVE the parts of you that FEAR SUCCESS, over and over, as you tend your nervous system enough to CHOOSE to discover and take action that's aligned.”

FEMININE WITCHES - IS YOUR SHADOW DISTRACTING YOU TO NOT TAKE ACTION IN YOUR SOUL BIZ? 🖤⚡
The secret thing you don't want to admit as an aspiring Feminine spiritual leader is that you KNOW it is *you* that is really getting in the way of serving your spiritual gifts as a healer.
Your commitment to not hustling (see my last post) doesn't mean that you should sit around taking no action at all (oh hello there, other end of the Feminine shadow pole 💃🖤).
You know that the problem is that it's YOU that is choosing to pay small (you're aware of your limiting beliefs), but what you don't yet realise is it's your underlying shadow that's INNOCENTLY and SNEAKILY stopping you from discovering and being your healing gifts. And it gets kinky pleasures from that.
Your Feminine Witchy shadow will unconsciously have you convinced that:
⚡ You've got to wait for the universe to just provide what you want (forgetting your power as a Creatrix)
⚡ You should just 'reframe' your beliefs (thereby plastering over them)
⚡ You just *can't* stop procrastinating (because you've lacked the true, deep, loving integration of this wound)
⚡ You don't know where to focus (you've created a load of distraction from your true gift)
⚡ You shouldn't be hustling, therefore you should be all 'spiritual' and floaty (the 'anti hustle' shadow)
⚡ Your story is unimportant and insignificant (because it terrifies you to share it, hello witch wound)
⚡ You should focus on your safer projects (hello control shadow)
You will burn out again if you do too much (hello fear from past hustle wounds)
AKA it'll have you doing everything to AVOID hustle and instead distracting away from taking ALIGNED ACTION (and you may not even know what the aligned-action is because of shadow fear).
That will also include unconscious manifestation of all sorts of distractions that appear to be "unavoidable" (ill health for example - oh how I know this one).
Ultimately, you get a kinky pleasure from that - in that you don't have to show up vulnerably and courageously to live the purpose you're here for.
💣💣💣 TRUTHBOMB: you're unconsciously choosing to play small and avoid serving your gifts 💣💣💣
And it's not your limiting belief that you are a "procrastinator" that needs changing.
No amount of affirmations of "I am clear and focused" will heal this one.
The deep work is to find and LOVE the parts of you that FEAR SUCCESS, over and over, as you tend your nervous system enough to CHOOSE to discover and take action that's aligned.
Not taking action is the opposite end of the same shadow pole as hustle. Both want your loving healing.
Our Archetypal Apothecary model will help you do that, so watch this space... And in the meantime, you might like to listen to our podcast - the Secret Witch Show, which dives into all things shadow, truth, medicine and Feminine power. 🖤✨
If you know you're here for 'more', this is important - because you came here to serve your Feminine healing gifts, not play small - am I right? 💃🖤⚡
