Yesterday I woke up to vultures eating a dead raccoon in my driveway.
There was so much symbolism and messages for my own growth but I wanted to share here for anyone that might resonate.
Yesterday was the new moon in Gemini, so it feels even more potent.
Raccoons symbolize the masks we wear, sometimes consciously, often unconsciously. The inauthentic ways we’ve learned to survive, to stay safe.
Often these masks create an internal suffering because they aren’t true to our being.
Our soul does not like to be anything but who we really are.
In fact, the entire human journey is about remembering, clearing false actions, reactions, behaviors, and beliefs so we can stand in our truth, in our power and live a life in alignment with our highest selves.
Vulture reminds us that death is cleansing and its nutrients feed a new life.
They remind us that some suffering we endure is self-imposed, a choice we make knowingly or unknowingly to stay the same. To stay where we no longer belong. To do the things we no longer want to do.
Or, we can release the chains that bind us and get REAL with ourselves, make new choices and change what we believe and how we live.
What mask is ready to come off?
What behavior are you ready to shift?
What belief needs to change?
Where are you creating suffering for yourself but blaming others or the world?
It’s time to change. It’s time to step into a new identity.
