Shakti Goddess - Raise Your Energy
It’s Saturday – my day of rest and time for relaxation, meditation and making intentions for the week.
However, the card I got for the coming week surprise me as I got the Goddess Shakti, which was calling me to focus on my energy levels and be aware of how I’m using it. It was also asking me to put my intention on my projects that I wish to manifest and not be disturbed by other people’s projects and needs
In Hindu India, Shakti, is the Goddess. She is active, powerful, vital and the animating force of the universe. Shakti, is the sacred force, power, or energy, and in the Hindu concept she is the personification of the divine feminine aspect, sometimes referred to as ‘The Divine Mother’.
If your idea of the Divine Mother is more of Mother Maty – compassionate, giving and endlessly accepting and in waiting and patient, Shakti represents the active, dynamic principles of feminine power.
In Hindu traditions Shakti embodies the active energy and power of male deities. She is the divine force and is able to destroy demonic forces and restore balance. Every God in Hinduism has his Shakti and without that energy they have no power.
The lessons we can learn from this Goddess are many. Shakti explodes into our life to energize and vitalize us.
She reminds us that the way to wholeness lies in learning to work with Shakti - the divine, cosmic, orgasmic Goddess of energy.
She is asking us questions such as: are you feeling tired? Do life and all its demands exhaust you? Do you keep giving your energy, your vitality, without taking in, recharging, revitalizing?
Or maybe there is something you want to manifest but don’t feel you have enough energy to do it. The Goddess says there is abundant energy available for you. All you need to do is learn how to connect with it.
My way of connecting to this energy is always doing things that energize me – things like dancing, walking in nature, working in the garden or reading a great book.
Find your ways of energizing yourself and make sure to use it this week in moments when you feel your energy is dropping down.
