When we are growing into what we want to become and what we want to do, the most important thing is to believe in ourselves. We have to know our self-worth and our own ability to finish a task and see it through. I want to encourage all our Cynnamon Charmed followers to take charge and become leaders of their own future. Don’t be a spectator to your dreams. If this is in career, family, etc. than that is fine too. BUT right now I am going to talk about being a leader in your own spirituality. As a pagan community we get a lot of criticism, a lot of nay sayers and a lot of people thinking they need to save our souls. I want you to take control of your own soul. Don’t be a spectator to the wonderful work others are doing to grow spiritually, make it your mission to grow yourself. Most of the time people are only spectators because they are scared of taking that next step. I was one of those people for a long time. And just because you do take that step doesn’t mean you will stop hearing the words of those spectators. They will probably get even louder but guess what they were always there anyways. When you are being your authentic self you are stronger and you are capable of unbelievable growth in your life. Your first steps may not be coming out publically about your spiritual beliefs and that is okay. Everyone’s journey is different and rightfully so. I am just encouraging you to actually begin your journey. If, for you, that looks like reading books or privately educating yourself than do it. If it means setting up an inconspicuous altar in your home, yard or even closet than that’s great too. Maybe it just means mumbling spells and blessings into your family’s dinner as you stir the pot…. DO IT. All these things are steps to growth. As you grow, your courage and your conviction to your beliefs will grow as well. You will no longer listen to those people in your ear whispering negative feedback. NOTICE I said you will not listen, you will hear them, you will pity them for their spectator ways and their inability to be a leader in their own life but you will NOT listen. You will have a spiritual shield around your body, Mother Earth’s hug embracing you so snuggly that this negative energy will bounce off of your radiating flesh. You will be too busy growing into your best authentic self to allow those kinds of liabilities to restrain you any longer. This is the season of NEW BEGINNINGS! It is Spring! Take a refreshing breath, examine your life and plant the seeds you need to grow this year. Love and Light ~ Keri Photo Credit: https://www.flickr.com/photos/cimmyt/8208415000/
