Goddess Archetype 19:

Plihanat-ushana (Unknown in physicality)

The imagined dependency of the feminine on outside sources to sustain it, yields to the supreme knowing of one’s being as one’s sustenance. In quiet confidence lies the feminine strength.

Feeling dependent on outside sources for survival places you in a very demeaning position – you are required to constantly leak life energy as payment for this sustenance, depleting your own resources, so that you feel even more dependent on outside sources. If you can reverse the situation so that you are feeding yourself with your own life force energy, instead of losing it with the hopes of getting something back, then you can break this vicious cycle. But it starts with knowing, even just on a factual level, that your true Source of sustenance comes from within.

Dignity comes from the ability to create boundaries and use your energy resources for your own purposes (self-sovereignty). Once you realize you can create and defend your boundaries and still survive – even thrive – then you can start relying on your own inner resources and budgeting your life energy for your own purposes. It can be difficult to make the change, both because our own fears and doubts can be hard to overcome, as well as because the beings we have been feeding are interested in maintaining their food source. They feed our fears and doubts, hoping to keep us in a co-dependent relationship. But all they can do is scare us into self-suppression. If we just confidently rest in the knowledge that we support ourselves, we can release these beings to higher forms of expression and ultimately bring them blessings as well.

Sometimes we find ourselves on the other side – we have someone in our care we see as inept, and we constantly leak energy trying to sustain them, trapping them in dependency on us and denying them their own dignity. If we live self-sovereign lives, then we encourage those around us to do the same, empowering them through our vision. We heal people by seeing them as healthy, and we empower others by seeing them as capable and strong.

Practical Recommendations:

Before turning on the music, examine your life for any areas where you do not feel complete self-sovereignty – where you feel insecure, where others have the ability to dictate your life, etc. How can you transform that sense of dependency to empowerment? For example, if you feel vulnerable not being able to fix your car or trust a mechanic to fix it correctly for a reasonable cost, that fear creates a situation where you leak life energy, and end up manifesting what you fear rather than what you want. You may feel dependent on a certain person who knows more about cars to help you with this issue, allowing that imbalance to drain your energy. Or perhaps you take your car to get fixed, but constantly feel ripped off and like they did poor work. This may be a realization of your fears or you projecting your insecurity – perhaps they did fine work for the market price, but you are eaten up by doubt and the conviction that they are untrustworthy.

Whatever the situation you have chosen, feel your desire to see it changed and empowered, realizing there are endless ways to change it. Some things you can you learn to do on your own; in some things, you may prefer to express your self- sovereignty by manifesting capable help; some “services” offered or imposed by others are things you might rather just do without. The most important thing is to be open to various options, and to be committed to your own self-sovereignty more than to maintaining your identity as a victim. If you trust the benevolence of life and your ability to provide for yourself, you allow things to manifest in perfect synchronicity. If you are committed to being a victim, you will manifest situations that confirm your victimhood. So it is important to be in the right state when you undertake actions.

Once you have identified the situation to work with, turn on the music. Allow a sense of magic and delight to fill your thoughts. Focus on that sense of magic and delight until it completely floods your being. Now look back at the situation you have chosen – what needs to happen, for that situation to become imbued with that sense of magic and delight? Allow the music to evoke new images, a fresh perspective. Imagine yourself in your new role as the months and years go by, constantly maintaining this newfound sense of dignity through self-sovereignty.

You may use this music as often as you desire, for as many situations as you desire. You may also play it in the background to help support a magical, empowering environment.
