#49: FIRELIGHT COCOON Sign: Aquarius Gift: Self-Awareness Shadow: Separation

Gift: Self-Awareness As you enter the realm of the gift, you gain access to a new, elevated sense of awareness that allows you to see the part you play in your ever- unfolding story. When you take ownership of your emotional state and its potential for volatility, you are able to take a step back and re- calibrate to another possible outcome. The energetic nebula of war and global strife clouds both our individual and collective visions - but here, in the gift frequency, you unleash a revolution that challenges our every notion of separation and division within this physical reality. You usher in a new way of being that celebrates our shared humanity and journey of continued evolution.

Shadow: Separation The shadow, synonymous with the fear of rejection, carves out a place within your most intimate relationships. This lower frequency state is characterized by reaction, emotion, and distance (both physical and metaphorical). On the repressive end, you may attempt to erase any semblance of emotion, leaving you cold or numb; in this case, your relationships will be devoid of pleasure and depth. On the reactive side, the fear overwhelms you, causing you to lash out at your partners (a preemptive measure to avoid rejection). In either case, true intimacy remains unseen.

Themes: accountability + emotional world + perception
