After the Eclipse: Embrace Your Dark Divine Feminine

Speaker A: 00:00:00

Hello gorgeous. And a warm welcome to Accepting. In this episode. We are going to be discussing now what after the eclipse with the rise of the Dark Divine Feminine.

So grab yourself a cup of tea, get yourself cozy and let's dive in.

Speaker A: 00:00:18

Welcome to Accepting where I guide you to accept all aspects of your beautiful self, embrace your truth and live your life that way.

Speaker A: 00:00:41

Hello beautiful and a warm welcome to today's episode. In this episode I've been really feeling into what do we all really need at the moment?

So I have my tarot cards and in a moment I will be choosing a card which is the theme of what we're talking about. And I'm really feeling that today very much. With all the fiery energy of the clips.

The eclipse, with the solar eclipse, we've now, we're now into Aries fire sign. Neptune is now in Aries for the next 15 years or so. Fire, Fire, Fire. And it's the rise of the Dark Divine Feminine. So what does that mean?

That's what we're going to be exploring and I'm going to receiving messages for us on how we can really navigate that. So what we're going to be talking about is healthy boundaries.

We're going to be talking about embracing that ancestral primal power and we're going to be talking about standing and being grounded, working with the Year of the Wood Snake and working with our fabulous inner power. That's what we're going to be talking about today. So I'm going to. I've already been told which card it is because I received it earlier. Okay.

It's the Empress. So the Empress is. You can see if you can see this card, absolutely beautiful. Next to her is the Venus sign.

She is adorned in beautiful, beautiful pomegranates and is grounded wearing a crown. Etc, Etc, Etc. So this is the Divine Feminine.

And what I really wanted to cover was because we have all these fairy tales of the Evil Queen and the darkness and the dark, that what it means when there's a dark something is it doesn't mean we're going to have a horror show necessarily. It means that our shadow elements are going to be coming up.

And when we balance our light and our shadows, that is when we are completely authentically ourselves, when we're pushing things down and down and down and down about us. For example, I have a temperature. I have mentioned it in previous episodes. I have a temper and it takes a while for it to go.

When it goes, it's strong. It's really strong. And as a woman, as a 48 year old woman. I'm speaking from that perspective at the moment.

It's instilled into us to be nice, to be nice to everybody, to make sure everybody's okay. Wouldn't it be lovely if you just had a little smile, love?

And we have all these facades of, let's just sit in the corner and be nice and be pleasant and be mothering and nurturing, etc. Etc. Mothers are fierce. Think about, think about lionesses in the wild. Mothers are fierce.

So what I would really like to feel into is the power of the Divine Feminine. So I mentioned a moment ago, so we have this kind of. Not everybody, we have this kind of, oh, well, dark.

It must be evil, it must be this, that, the next thing, it's the truth. So the rising of the Dark Divine Feminine is allowing us to speak our truth.

It's allowing us to look in the mirror and say to ourselves, am I being really honest with myself? Am I being really, really authentic with myself, never mind with everybody else?

Am I being really, really honest with how I'm feeling, with my desires, with my ambitions, with what feels right for me? Am I really using that beautiful primal source, that ancestral, beautiful power to live my life in the most authentic way?

Now, that's a brilliant journaling question, actually, so I'd ask yourself that first. Now, what also happens is, and in many, many episodes, we go through peeling off layers, peeling off layers, peeling off layers.

In the Year of the Woodsnake, which is a nine, a nine year and nine is all about endings. And the wood snake is all about grounding and removing skins for transformation.

When we've got the rise of the Dark Divine Feminine, this is an absolute beauty because she is inspiring us to get rid of everything that doesn't serve us. So we've already got the energy of closing. We've already got the energy of transformation and removing skins.

And when I say transformation, it's remembering who we truly are.

So if you're in a situation, and especially with the eclipse energy, where there was something you were so sure about, and all of a sudden it's completely changed and you're now what the f. Now what the feminine. Then it's really, really important. And I talk about blessings in disguise.

It's really important to accept this podcast called Accepting to accept what is happening, because we may have expectations and ideas of what we feel is our path. The universe has our back. The universe is listening.

And if there's something that is better for us, what doesn't work for us is going to be taken away. And we're going to have that beautiful, clear path so we can move forward with this gorgeous divine feminine.

We can move forward with this beautiful power within.

And I'm not only talking about women, I'm talking about all of us, because inside of us, we have the masculine and the feminine, and it's that beautiful balance.

And when we have, you know, that gorgeous fire energy of making things happen and action and passion, and we combine that with endings, we're closing what doesn't serve us. We combine that with taking off layers and layers and layers with the wood snake whilst we're grounding.

And that allows us to transform, to be alchemists and to really show what's underneath. It's like I mentioned in a previous episode, the Phoenix Rising, that gives us an extra boost to be really honest with ourselves.

And as we're really honest with ourselves, things can come up. Things that we thought we had dealt with can come up.

Because we're now in a space where before we were in a space of that vibration and we were looking into situations and we were, okay, fine, that's closed. Move on.

It might be that situation is coming up either as a little test just to see have you really moved on, or is there something that you didn't quite close in that situation that now needs that final close in this nine year, that now needs the final close with this gorgeous dark divine feminine energy, who is taking away unnecessary attachments, who is taking away what really doesn't serve us? And that can be in absolutely everything.

So that can be in relationships, that can be in situationships, that can be in jobs, that can be, is how we show up in the world, that can be in all kinds of relationships. And this podcast accepting is all about the relationship with ourselves. So it's really, really important that we are really honest with ourselves.

And I kept feeling into. There's a beautiful painting and it's. It's where the truth goes.

And she bathes and dishonesty and lies steal her clothes and put them on and pretend that they're her.

And I was really reminded of this beautiful painting because what's happening now is whatever lies are wearing a false truth, all those clothes are being given back to the real truth. Veils are being lifted, things are crumbling that aren't true. If anything is built on very rocky foundations of lies, that's coming down.

So what we're being invited to do first is to look at ourselves first. And I keep looking over there because I'm looking out the windows. There are a lot of birds around, and birds are ancestors.

So with that ancestral power that we have, you might be finding that your, you, your tempers very quick at the moment. You might be finding that you're very fiery at the moment.

You might be finding that you're losing your temper easily or you're, you're having very, very heightened emotions and for things that normally. But, yeah, okay, whatever, is actually really niggling you and really winding you up to the point where you feel like you might burst.

So what I would like to say is don't push that down. Channel it. Channel, channel, channel it. If you're in a situation on your own, brilliant. And you can scream like a banshee, you can get that all out.

Do that. Just go bananas and get it all out. If you feel like you want to have a really good cry because it's just welling up in you, crying is healing.

Crying is a reset of our nervous system.

And when we push and push and push and push things down and we push our emotions down and we're not being emotionally intelligent, that's going to burst up in other ways. So I'd really invite you, if you're feeling hugely, even angry about things, it might not necessarily what you think you're angry about.

It may be years and years and years and years of pushing things down, or it might even be in ancestral pushing things down that you have come here to finally close.

And with this Year of the Nine and with the wood snake and with the rising of the Dark Divine Feminine, it is the perfect time to close that so we can really move forward as a community, having each other's backs supporting each other because we are speaking our truth. And it's not all Pollyanna. And for those who don't know what I'm talking about, Pollyanna is a film from I can't remember which decade.

And everything was all wonderful and fabulous and beautiful. Yes, we can see what's beautiful, fabulous and amazing. Not all the time, because that is fake. That is so fake. We have to. I don't want to use. Have to.

It's so important that we feel our real, real emotions that are going on. We don't need to go on a deep dive of anger, anger, anger for weeks and weeks on end.

What we do is we allow it to rise up, we allow ourselves to feel into it. And what is that actually telling us? So when you're in a situation. So I mentioned, if you're on your own. Brilliant. Scream at banshee. Banshee. Banshee.

Singing is brilliant. To do as well, because you're expressing yourself. A lot of it comes from the throat chakra.

A lot of it comes where we haven't been speaking our truth. A lot of it comes from where our ancestors haven't been speaking our truth, and that's been passed on to us. So here can be really, really closed.

And for those of you who are listening, because this is being videoed, I'm holding around my throat chakra.

And what I'm going to do as well is I'm going to start so bonus videos in the next month or so that if you would like to receive those, they are specific, very specific processes that you can do for ancestral healing. Very specific processes you can do and be in for really, really stepping into your power.

I'm going to do that as a membership for those who really feel that they want to take that step further.

So what I would really like to say at the moment is, with all that you have, so if you're in a situation, you're on your own and you're feeling really angry and you can just.

I call it banshee it out, you can just go and just be primal and get all of that out and feel every single iota of that emotion that's coming through you and just allow it to burst to the system. Brilliant. I would highly recommend you do that. And also I would highly recommend that you journal on this now. I'd also like to mention that.

And this has happened to me, I'd also like to mention as well that after the eclipse, if there's some great big changes that are happening, it can be so easy to go into old, let's call them unhealthy habits, because that feels safe for us.

Because there may have been things that have been being removed and we've got all this space around us and we're not quite sure where to go or what to do with it. So what I would say to you is if any of your unhealthy habits have been coming up, just acknowledge them, please do not berate yourself for it.

Just acknowledge. Oh, okay, so maybe that's come up because I'm not feeling safe.

And I mean, and it's really important that I nurture my inner child and I nurture myself and help myself to feel safe because there is so much going on in the world. We know this. There's so much going on in the world energetically. And as empaths, we can. We can tune into that collective.

So what I'd really invite you to do is to Tune into yourself and stay away from the fear mongering.

So if there is something happening in your life and you were so, so sure, and this has happened to me twice recently, you were so sure that this was your path ahead and then all of a sudden it's not for whatever reason, it's just been taken away. Or you had an intuition that something doesn't feel right. Firstly, congratulate yourself that you listen to that intuition.

And secondly, congratulate yourself that you allowed whatever didn't suit you to go and that you're in this fabulous space and the fact that you're listening to this as well as massively powerful as well. Because your soul has guided you here, your soul has guided you to tune in to your primal, gorgeous, divine, dark divine, feminine energy.

And so when we're talking about dark divine feminine. So, for example, Hecate with the new moon, when the new moon's dark, Hecate is the goddess, we have Kali as well.

And as much as people can feel like, oh, well, you know, there's Hecate's hounds and she's going to, she's going to destroy, she's going to Kali, the great destroyer. Yes. Of what doesn't serve us, of lies. Because what they both do is they reveal the truth.

And whoever you identify with, whoever your source is, your God, your goddess, your universe, whoever you identify with, whoever's your greater power, they want the best for you. And when we acknowledge that that greater power is our higher power wanting the best for us, that is when we can really step into that power.

And in the previous episode I was talking about, do your friends really have your back? It's a little bit tongue in cheek.

Because it's so important as we're going through this that we're recognizing those who are not on our vibratory level will not be staying in our lives. Those that we do not have any other lessons to learn with will not be staying in our lives.

Those who are not moving forward with us will not be staying in our lives.

Because energetically, for us to step into all that fabulous power, for us to be really, really honest with ourselves and show up authentically as ourselves, we need truth around us. We need people who do not judge us as we're going through this, we need people who can hold us and equally we can hold those others.

And it's being really honest. So if you do not feel, for example, you've made arrangements and I'm not saying if this starts being a pattern, look at that.

What I'm saying is be with friends who completely accept. If you're having a moment and you really need just some time on your own, they embrace that.

And if you're somebody who actually, you really need to voice what's going on, have people around you that you can. You can voice that with.

And by letting those people stay where they are and move forward, who aren't in that vibratory level with us, who only accept us when we're in this. Up on a pedestal savior. I'm here to do this for you. I'm here to do that for you. Let me do this. Let me do this. Let me do this.

Let me solve all your problems. Let me receive messages for me, for you, for me. Everything I'm saying is for me as well. Let me receive messages that are for your greater good.

Let me. Let me. Let me do this, do this, do this, do this, do this, do this. To quote Mel Robbins, let them. Let them get on with it.

Let them be accountable for their lives and you move on and be accountable for your life. Because it's not about judgment and blame. It's about accountability. So if we're going into old habits, it's being accountable for them.

It's saying, right, okay, I've realized that that's actually one of my unhealthy habits from before that seems to have come up again. Why is that? Why. Why am I. Where am I not feeling safe? What has triggered that in me? I would journal on that.

Why has a situation come up that I thought that I dealt with years ago? Why is that coming up again? And a lot of it's to do with planetary energy when we.

We're revisiting, instead of diving into all the emotions, get yourself in a beautiful ground estate with the wood snake and feel into. Why is that coming up? What haven't I left behind? What have I brought along with me? What do I move on? What do what?

What is necessary for me to move on to? Is there still an attachment to that situation? Is there still an attachment energetically to that person?

Is there still an attachment energetically to how that made me feel, how I allowed that to make me feel? And I brought that forward with me. Is there a pattern in there? Is a. Is there a victim mentality in there that it's time for me to move on from?

I would journal and look into all of that. And of course you can get in touch with me. We can have empower hour sessions. We can dive really deep. Absolutely. Do get in touch with me. If you feel.

If you feel really drawn to that. I am here for you, gorgeous. This is. In the interim, this is. Okay, so I've recognized that's happening for me. Let's feel into why.

And it might be that that keeps coming up and keeps coming up and keeps coming up. And you might have almost a feeling of, well, how can I get back to where I was before?

You're not going to get back to where you were before, my gorgeous. Because you're moving forward. Okay? We're constantly moving. It's constantly change.

So the card today for the tarot is the Empress all about the Dark Divine feminine energy. And the Empress is also about nurturing. So the, the.

It's really important as we're changing, as we're making these changes, as we're stepping into this gorgeous Dark Divine feminine power, that we are nurturing ourselves and nurturing ourselves in such a way that is for us, because we're not all the same. Some people might like to have a beautiful bath with the energetic energy of beautiful sofeggio music coming into that bath.

Other people might be nurturing, going for long walks in nature, whatever is your nurturing language. We talk about love language. What's your love language to yourself? What is your love language? And then notice.

Where have you not been loving to yourself with absolutely no judgment at all? Because it might be those unhealthy habits have come up because you've not been taking the time and space to be loving to yourself.

So instead of going into those unhealthy habits of binge watching something on tv, of eating something that, you know isn't exactly great for you, helping everybody again when you've already put your boundaries out there, that's a huge one at the moment. Helping everybody how you did before. So that. Oh, she's back. He's back. They're back. Brilliant. Just allow yourself to notice it.

Imagine you, you know, yourself as an onlooker. No judgment. Absolutely no judgment and no blame. Just that. Oh, okay, so that came up because I'm not feeling safe. Why am I not feeling safe?

How can I help myself feel safe? And for me, one of the. I call it a quick fix. I mean, as we're working on ourselves and we're accepting ourselves, it is not a quick fix.

This is a really beautiful way just to help you get back into your heart. Because it's about heart energy. Empress Venus is all about the heart. So we place our hands on our heart and we say.

And we close our eyes and we say, I am safe. And just by saying that, you're already resetting that nervous system, because just try it.

Close your eyes, put your hand on your heart and say, I am safe. And feel how your breathing becomes more relaxed. Feel how those shoulders have lowered. Feel how everything's possible.

And when we put ourselves into that kind of state, that loving alpha state of feeling safe, that is when we can start looking at why things are coming up. That's when we can start journaling. That's when we can get our phones and start speaking into.

Right, okay, well, this came up the other day quite a lot. This keeps coming up. This keeps coming up. Why? Why am I not feeling safe? And you don't have to tell anybody either.

You can also just keep that to yourself for a while and journal on it, feel into it.

Of course, if there are people around you who you feel completely safe with and who are going to be there to help you identify where you're not feeling safe, then absolutely reach out to them and listen to your intuition with who you're reaching out to. Because if there's any kind of not so sure about that.

When you've heard that you have your hand on your heart and you ask the question, is there anybody I can reach out to? When you have the answer to that and a name is given, that's beautiful.

If later you keep feeling into somebody else and it doesn't feel right, listen to that. Listen to your first instinct. When you have your hand on your heart, when you're in that beautiful ancestral power energy, who do I feel safe with?

Who can I talk to? And if that's just you, fine. If that is me, please reach out. Do reach out.

I have moved all the podcasts back to Captivate now, so you can actually get in touch with me personally as well. It's back on my own podcast channel, so you can get back in touch with me however you wish. Okay. You can leave messages.

I would love it if you leave a like, I would also love it if you can let me know. What would you like me to discuss? What would you like me to feel into? What would help you? Because the reason I'm doing this is to help.

The reason I'm doing this is to give hope.

The reason I'm doing this is because as highly, highly sensitive people and intuitive empaths and empaths of all walks of life, we feel so much with all that's going on, we need support. So the reason I'm doing this is for hope and support.

And if you can, please, please, please, please let me know what is going to help you for me to talk about, for me to feel into that would be immensely helpful. And as much as I can feel into it, because this is very, very general. If somebody.

If you message me and I look at all the messages, if you message me either by email, which is love at align with arlene.com or you send a message via any of the podcast channels, I look at those and I can feel into with my hand on my heart. What resonates for us to speak about. What resonates. I would like to. For this to be a community.

I would like this to be an acceptance movement where we all accept exactly who we are, exactly where we've been, how we got to where we are. We accept others for exactly how they are, truthfully, authentically, as long as it's not a detriment to any others.

We just accept each other because then we can get on with why we're here as a collective. You know, that's why I have created the accepting. That is why I'm so passionate about that.

That's why I've created accepting the life of an empath, because it is about acceptance. It does all start with acceptance. And for us to get there. It's not an easy road, let's be honest.

It's not an easy road because there are people who are living in fear. There are people who are used to how we've always, always been. Always been. Nay, that's for Squawkish.

So there are people who may be trying to hold us back through fear and saying, oh, you know, you've changed. What are you doing?

And it's those people that if they don't accept that we are moving into our true authenticity, that we say, thank you very much, and we move on from. If they are willing to grow with us and they are willing to accept who we are, absolutely. And they have our back.

They come with us, and it's likely we will inspire them to look at themselves as well.

And when I talk about this, we're not going into, like, a whole inner retreat of months and months and months and months of just working on ourselves. It's really important that we're showing up in the world as well, because that can be full spirituality.

You know, we've come here for a reason, so it's really important. Yes, we do spend time. And if you. If you truly feel you're at such a space that you need that safe cocoon, and there's something that is.

I've been there, I've done that, bought the T shirt when I had my accident, I did not see anybody for months because that was me going into my dark divine feminine of what was really going on and who am I, truly? If that's happening for you, then I really invite you to reach out. This is why I've created the podcast.

This is why I've created the Embrace Yourself 22 Pathways to Self Love. Because if I had that nine years ago, it wouldn't have taken me so bloody long.

And if I had, instead of thinking I had to do it all on my own, if I had reached out very early on, instead of, well, everybody is used to me just getting on with it and doing it myself. And who is going to be able to help me anyway? Because they're not going to understand what I'm going through.

If I had actually said, you know what, I'm going to show up and I'm going to be vulnerable and I'm going to be authentic and I'm going to say what's actually going on. And I really don't know what's going on. I really don't understand what's going on in my life. I'm scared. I need some support and help.

If I had done that nine years ago, then it wouldn't have taken me nine years to be here. And I appreciate that was my choice. That was my path. So I can sit here now in front of you and guide you and support you.

And if anything I'm saying with you doesn't resonate and intuitive you feel it doesn't resonate, please listen to that as well. Because it's really important that we listen to our. Our inner wisdom as well, because we're not all the same.

So what I'm saying is, if you were in a space and you feel that you've got to do it all on your own, my gorgeous. You don't. Like I said, I've been there, I've done that. I bought the T shirt. Just.

If you can just reach out to somebody just by listening to this, you're already moving forward. Just by tuning in and just staying still for half an hour and feeling into this episode, you're already on leaps and bounds.

If you feel there's nobody who understands you, reach out to me. Send me a dm. I'm here. This is why I'm doing this. And it doesn't necessarily have to be for you to have one or three months coaching with me.

Reach out to me. Okay? I really, really mean that. And it doesn't have to be publicly. You can reach out to me.

And other people have asked how you can reach out to me at love@alignwithailene.com you can also send me direct messages on Instagram. And if you put Eclipse in the subject or Divine Feminine in the subject, I'm going to go to those first.

Okay, I will go to those first because I will be prioritizing those because I know it's not spam. All right, so that felt so important to talk about today. I really hope this episode has helped you do reach out to me.

Do let me know what you would like me to feel into. Keep going my gorgeous. You've got this. Be really kind to yourself. I'm gonna bring her up again. Remember the Empress, the nurturing elements.

Be nurturing to yourself. Be really kind and compassionate with yourself and also kind of compassionate with others as you're moving forward from them. Okay? So so much love.

Here is to your self acceptance, your self empowerment. Embracing that fabulous primal power that you have and channeling any kind of temper anger when you're on your own. Banshee it out.

If you're with others, I would suggest try and just step away for a moment and get a pen and paper and just write it all down or get your phone and get it all out. And that energy is when you can start going into your creative pursuits. And I'm going to be speaking about that in the next episode.

For now, my gorgeous, here is to your self acceptance. Here is to your self empowerment. Here is to yourself. Nurturing with so much love. You've got this.
