Why you’re afraid of your own potential (and how to step into it)

Why You’re Afraid of Your Own Potential (And How to Finally Step Into It)

I’ve been thinking a lot about this lately.

Why is it so unusual to be inspired to reach your FULLEST potential?

Why do we hide from what we’re actually good at
Why do we give our question our strengths and praise others for their courage?
Why do we struggle to take action on achieving our goals?
And why do so many people never fully step into the version of themselves thats calling their name?

Instead of owning who we are, we hand it over.

From the youngest age, we’re rewarded for being passive.

Given a gold star for doing the right thing.

Praised by our teachers for sitting down when we’re told and falling in line.

Maintaining a sense of order.

To someone else’s standard*

And when we surface out of school to the world, we uncover the most devastating concept.

One that shakes us to our core.

Uprooting our identity.

The notion thats been implanted in us since we were old enough to speak:

If I create the least amount of tension for others and do as I’m told, I’ll be OK.

right.

Contrary to this, once we leave the structure of school and university, we’re smacked in the face with the opposite truth:

The more resistance and definace you take in pursuing what feels good, the better off you are.

You realise: 

You’re actually punished for conforming. 

In the way of: emptiness, loneliness and a sense of isoaltion with yourself.

You realise:

Life has a way of making you feel praised once you start boasting your individuality.

So now begins the process of uprooting everything you’ve been told to believe.

And navigating a new relationship with your authentic self.

But we fall to our habits not rise to our ideals.

It is easy to fall into the trap of: people pleasing, becoming more accessible to others, not rocking the boat.

And sooner or later we wake up 15 years into our senior years with a sense of disorientation and debilitating longing for a life calling to us from a distant mountain it seems, one that feels too late to access.

But all is not lost on our conditioning..

Before you even set out into the world your soul entered this lifeline you’re living with a unique cosmic blueprint.

Your birth chart.

Thinking about your birth chart is about as logical as looking at the blueprint before building a house.

It’s what your true identity is based upon.

Your birth chart lays out the most impoirtant elements of who you are, the deepest link to understanding your truth.

The way you think 

How you feel when someone loves you

How you give love to others

The way others percieve you when you walk into a room

How you will get along with your mother in law

What causes your body to feel tense

How to unlock your shoulders and feel a sense of ease

How to start having access to limitless amounts of money

Not the life you think you should want
but the one that actually fits you

Get the picture? 😏 

But other than the warm rosy things, our chart also reveals our biggest blocks..

The parts of you that you avoid

There are three key placements that explain a lot of this:

Your Lilith
your Chiron
and your Moon

Your Lilith shows the parts of you that you have pushed down
the sides of yourself that feel uncomfortable or too much or not acceptable
so instead of expressing them you hide them

Your Chiron shows your wounds
the parts of you that feel sensitive and exposed
the places where you have been hurt and where you often avoid looking

And your Moon shows your emotional world
how you feel things
what drives you
what actually moves you to take action

When you are disconnected from these parts of yourself everything can feel off
you hesitate you second guess you hold back

Your chart shows you the way

It shows you how you are wired
what works for you
what does not
and what kind of life will actually feel good for you to live

You start to see what has been getting in your way 

You get the clarity so you can actually change it

An example

If you have Chiron in Sagittarius

You will feel a natural pull toward growth expansion and bigger experiences

Because Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter (the planet of growth expansion and biggness)*

Everday you will feel this HANKERING to want more out of life.

Which can be a positive thing no?

When channelled correctly.

However

There can also be a pattern of moving too quickly
Jumping from one thing to the next
Struggling to stay with something long enough because stability feels counterintutive.

So someone with chiron in sagittarius will end up with short bursts of excitement
But not always long term satisfaction

See once we have awareness of  that pattern we work with it instead of being stuck in it.

What we look at in your chart

When we go through your chart we are not just looking at surface level traits

We look at your North Node and where your life is moving toward
your South Node and what you naturally fall back on
your Mercury and how you think and communicate
your Sun and the energy you bring into the world

We look at your Jupiter and where you expand and attract opportunities
your second house and your relationship with money
your seventh house and how you show up in relationships and business
your eighth house and your deeper transformations

And everything else that connects it all together

It gives you a full picture of who you are

So why not live your life as you

You already have access to this version of yourself

You already have the potential

The question is why are you not living it

Why keep holding back
Why keep waiting
Why keep giving your power away

You can live a life that feels like yours
one that feels aligned
one that you actually want to wake up to

That is available to you

If you are ready
