The Sovereign Archetype - How To Become More Sovereign In Your Life

You know the feeling when you feel stuck in a situation and no matter what you do, you can’t seem to break out of it? It’s a terrible feeling and one that we all have at some point in our lives. The fact of the matter is that most people operate in a state of servitude for the majority of their lives. We follow instructions from bosses, teachers, and so on. We take orders from waiters, baristas and so on. We even make sure not to offend anyone so as not to get into trouble; we walk on egg shells so as not to upset anyone. In short, we almost always operate as if we are subject to another person’s authority.

The Importance Of Arising Sovereign In Your Life

While most of us have at some point felt stuck in a situation, the unfortunate thing is that we rarely do anything about it. The big question is, why? Because on one level, we know that we have the power to do something about it. The main reason for this is that we don’t even realize that we are even stuck in the first place. On an even deeper level, we don’t even believe that we have the power to change our situation. We feel powerless and that there is nothing that can be done about it. But the only way to break out of this negative pattern is to first become aware of it. We need to realize that we are stuck and that we don’t have to be. We need to realize that we can do something about it. We need to realize that we are sovereign, that only we can change our situation.

How To Become More Sovereign In Your Life

In order to become more sovereign in your life, the first step is to become aware of when you are feeling servant-like. This may sound strange, but the fact of the matter is that you don’t have to actually be under someone’s authority in order to feel like you are. You can feel like you are in service to a person even if they are not actually in your life. So, this is a state of being, not a state of doing. Once you become aware of when you are feeling like you are in service to someone, that’s the time to start taking back your power and becoming more sovereign in your life. Once you are aware of the fact that you are under someone or something’s authority, take a step back and ask yourself: “Do I want to be here? Do I want to be under this person’s authority? Do I want to take orders from this person?”

Take Back Your Sovereignty By Writing Down What You Will No Longer Tolerate

Next, once you are aware of the fact that you are feeling like you are under someone’s authority and you don’t want to be there, start taking steps to take back your Sovereignty. One way to do this is to write down what you will no longer tolerate in your life. For example, if you are feeling servitude under your current boss and don’t want to be there, start by writing down what you will no longer tolerate. This could be something like “I will not tolerate being disrespected by my boss” or “I will not tolerate being undermined by my boss” etc. When you write down that which you will no longer tolerate, you are actually writing down the first step in manifesting a new reality. When you write down what you will no longer tolerate, you are actually standing up for yourself and becoming more sovereign in your life.

Conclusion

At the end of the day, there is no easy way to change our lives. We can’t expect that once we read this article, our lives will change immediately. There is no magic pill, so to speak. But by becoming aware of the fact that we are feeling servitude, we can take steps to change this. We can take steps to become more sovereign in our lives. All we need to do is to realize that we have this power. We just have to take that first step.

The Shadow Has Something Important to share with You!

The Shadow Has Something Important to Share with You!

The Shadow is the side of ourselves that with judge, the side of ourselves that we disown, our negative emotional spectrum; Anger, Frustration, Abandonment, Rejection, Hurt, Trauma, Loneliness, etc. These emotions come up from time to time in our life and we think they don't serve us. They cripple us, or they keep us down and lost, if we stay with the shadow too long we lose interest in life, we become stagnant, the world doesn't feel as vibrant and vivid as it once did. 

In my own life I have been haunted by my shadow for most of life, times when it would cripple me, times when it would make me judge myself, and judge others, push everyone away. These negative emotions and feelings caused me many years of pain and suffering even though my life was fantastic, I would have the highest highs and the lowest lows.

Until one day I decided to stop fighting, to stop running, to stop and look in the mirror and sit with my shadow and begin a conversation. Start a dialog between this ball of "darkness" and myself. I sat with each emotion one by one and asked why am I feeling this way? What is it you are trying to tell me?

When we take the time to slow down, when we take the time to stop and be still with our emotional and feelings, to stop and let the thoughts come in one by one. Especially the ones' we judge the most, with all our darkness. Then we begin the process of true transcendence, and then we can let the shadow teach us where the pain stems from and go to the truth if this is true in our reality or not. 

I invite you right now to sit with you shadow, with one emotion that you maybe feeling, and go deep into the hurt, into the pain, into the sadness, into the anger, whatever you maybe feeling in this moment, or in a key moment or time that comes to you. Ask yourself where did this pain stem from? Ask yourself what lesson do I need to learn here still? Ask yourself where was the blessing in this? and then allow yourself to let it go and set it free once you get clarity, if you don't get clarity then go stay longer with it and go deeper.
