the saboteur within you -- PUT ON YOUR OWN DAMN CAPE

⁣

sabotage energy is heavy in the air, i have been noticing it a ton in myself and in the people around me. it is easy to recognize something when it is outside of us, but i have come to understand that this is usually when we need to see it in ourselves the most - life doing what it does best … being a mirror. ⁣

⁣

the archetype of the saboteur is one that we all share as humans, sometimes when things are going really good, we mess it up. ⁣

⁣

ever get sick before a big life change? or start finding reasons why something isn’t going to work before you even try? ⁣

⁣

yeah, that is the saboteur at work. ⁣

⁣

the key in life is to get ahead of your saboteur - this is why the most successful people alive tell you to do it before you’re ready or “feel the fear and do it anyway.”⁣

⁣

this is probably one of the hardest things we have to face in life, this idea that there is something within us that wants to save us from the things we want most. it makes absolutely no sense. why would we be afraid of what we desire and what we know is good for us? ⁣

⁣

well, life works in a way in which it wants to keep you exactly where you are. the subconscious mind likes the idea of what is familiar. and so change is not only hard work but it is considered life-threatening. ⁣

⁣

there is a part of you that thinks that anything new or challenging in life will kill you, hence why it stops you from leaving your comfort zone. ⁣

⁣

it wants to keep you locked into what you know, what works and what you have been doing your entire life. the only problem with this is what you are doing is what you have been conditioned to do, which is to play small. ⁣

⁣

there isn’t a magical castle you can go live in where you can develop your talents/skills while also being taken care of. ⁣

⁣

we want to be taken care of while we’re also going through the process of change and challenge. often times though, these things contradict one another. the people in your life are people who also have a subconscious that works hard to keep them in their comfort zone - so to them, your newfound awakening will be perceived as a threat. ⁣

this is when the saboteur has you exactly where it wants you, asking you the questions - are your dreams really worth all this work? will you even be able to do this without anyone around you who understands you? wouldn’t you rather just live an easy life with the people you love? ⁣

⁣

this is when you have to put on your own cape.⁣

⁣

today’s message from spirit was so loud … PUT ON YOUR OWN DAMN CAPE. save yourself. no one is coming to save you. no one will understand your process more than you do. and if you need support, go to the people and places that have the capacity to support you - which may not look like anyone you know, but trust me they are out there. ⁣

⁣

this isn’t easy work, this is going against the grain work. ⁣

⁣

this is the type of work that will make this world a better place - because you overcoming your saboteur makes it a lot easier for someone else to do so. you have what it takes, it is all within you. ⁣
