Mining the Gold in Your Shadow — The Pleiadians
Transcribed Excerpt from our November 14, 2023 Transmission
Note: The sun has just moved from Scorpio to Sagittarius. Although we were discussing the transit of the moon from Scorpio to Sagittarius during this event, this information can be applied to the sun as well. Enjoy it :)
The new moon in Scorpio was very powerful in facilitating the bringing up of anything you may have been holding in your subconscious or carrying in what you might define as your shadow. Scorpio is right at home with the shadow. Scorpio is a lover of the shadow and the richness and power and beauty to be found in the shadow aspects of the self. You often have this understanding on your world that your shadow is the icky stuff — the hurts, the wounds, the bad, the negative, and that’s not really our perspective. Your shadow is typically what you don’t allow yourselves to see. Quite often what you don’t allow yourselves to see is your own beauty, your own magnificence, your own grace, your own power, your own voice, your own creative energy, the richness of who you are.
So, we want to invite you right now, right in this moment, to completely reinterpret your understanding of your shadow. Instead of viewing it as this shit that follows you around, that is a manifestation of all of the wrong, see it instead as the aspects of you that want to be brought more fully into the light, into your light, your consciousness, your awareness, that’s what we mean by the light.
Take a breath here and appreciate the Scorpio energy in supporting this. The Moon is no longer in Scorpio. You’re still in that new phase heading into waxing, where the moon begins to become brighter and brighter. The phase you’re in today is Sagittarius, which is more of an action-oriented, let’s make decisions, let’s create intentions, let’s get going kind of energy, which is a fabulous energy to be connecting with you all around intention, which we want to do with you today. We want you to create some intentions for yourself, but before you do this, before we get there, we want you to dive back into the Scorpio energy and your shadow.
So, take a breath right now, and think about, and feel into all of the pieces of yourself that you squirrel away, that you hide away, the brilliant beautiful aspects of yourself that you are afraid to share for one reason or another. All valid reasons. You’re not doing this because there is something wrong with you. You’re not doing this because you’re lazy. You’re not doing this because you’re a procrastinator. You are suppressing aspects of yourself as a response to trauma, as a response to fear, fears of rejection, fears of abandonment, fears of judgment, fears of not fitting in, fears of disruption, on and on, and on, and this is what forms the shadow.
It is, “Ah, I see this piece of myself. Err, what if others see it, and that changes my reality in some way, in a way that perhaps I don’t like? I’m going to push that away. I’m going to hide it. I’m going to tie it up here in a knot. I’m going to let it sit over here,” and this builds the shadow. This is your shadow. At least today we want you to have this interpretation of your shadow, this combination of amazing and powerful and vibrant and beautiful aspects of yourselves that you have been too afraid to share.
Take a breath here.
Now let yourself tune into where that fear sits in your body, and it may be in more than one space. So, just let yourself notice whatever you’re noticing here in your physical body, and allow any emotional response to occur as well. Now, as you inhale, take in a greater transmission of unconditional love, and as you exhale, offer that love to the you that is afraid, to the you that thinks that playing small is somehow better, the you that thinks that hiding will serve you, the you that believes that if you stay in the box your safety will be assured, and all the other stories you tell yourself about why it is you cannot be who you want to be, why it is you cannot do what it is you want to do, why it is you cannot share what it is you want to share, and on and on.
Allow that unconditional love to come in on your breath, and as you exhale allow it to move throughout the totality of your being. And let it expand outward, forward and backward in time to you in any moment of time and space in any lifetime, as you revel in your shadow right now and experience yourself more whole, more complete.
