A Journey of Release and Growth
As we move through Venus retrograde, I’ve found myself at a crossroads of self-reflection and transformation. This season has held a mirror to my journey, showing me not just where I’ve been but where I’m headed. I’m stepping into my Hierophant era, learning to embrace the role of teacher and guide—a role that once felt beyond my reach. It’s been a process of shedding old patterns, especially the imposter syndrome that held me back for so long.
The Hierophant represents wisdom, spiritual guidance, and service to others, and I see now that this energy has always been within me—even when I wasn’t ready to fully embrace it. This journey isn’t about feeling powerful but about humbly sharing what I’ve learned and guiding others from a place of deep understanding.
Releasing the Weight of Past Mistakes
One of the hardest lessons has been confronting how much I’ve tied my self-worth to past mistakes. I used to believe that those missteps meant I wasn’t worthy of stepping into a leadership role. But now, I see that my mistakes don’t diminish me—they’ve shaped me. Those experiences have given me the wisdom to help others who are facing similar struggles. Every time I pulled a card, I kept getting The Hierophant. It became clear that I wasn’t meant to shy away from this energy—it was calling me to embrace it. Leadership isn’t about perfection—it’s about being authentic and sharing what I’ve learned in a way that can uplift others.
Ancestors and Past Lives
My ancestors are not just part of my past—they are the lenses through which I can see my true potential. Their wisdom guides me back to past versions of myself when I embodied roles of leadership and service. This isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about remembering who I’ve always been and stepping into those roles with more clarity. As I connect with this wisdom, I feel empowered to share it and evolve in this lifetime. It’s not about reaching a place of perfection, but about embracing the gifts and lessons passed down through generations. This is a process of remembrance, and it’s through this that I can continue to grow.
A significant part of my transformation has come through connecting deeper with ATR and spiritual practices. It has shown me that leadership is about service, humility, and responsibility—not about seeking power. It’s about sharing wisdom and holding space for others, honoring the traditions that have shaped me. Through Ifa and the wisdom of the elders I’ve encountered, I’ve come to understand that leadership is not about a title—it’s about how we serve others with authenticity and respect.
Sovereignty and Finding Our Voice
For a long time, I’ve held parts of myself back, unsure of how much to share or if I was truly ready to be seen. But with the encouragement of my community, I’m embracing the role of teacher and guide in my own time, in my own way. Leadership isn’t about being perfect; it’s about showing up as you are and sharing what you’ve learned. I’m learning to honor my light while staying grounded in my truth. True leadership is a balance between humbling yourself and owning your wisdom, stepping into the fullness of who you are.
This is a powerful time for all of us to step up, evolve, and reemerge. We are being called to find our voices and to lead in a way that is authentic. Sovereignty is not lost—it is ours to claim. The world needs more of us to step into our roles as leaders and guides, and I’m here to encourage you to do just that.
