For the sake of comparison and to entice you to keep your eye on your internal prize of waking up to your full power I would like to make a list of what some of the characteristics of the dis-empowered are. See which still have a familiar pull to you.

On and on it goes…controlling and manipulating to instill an undercurrent of fear that keeps most of us toeing the line, getting by, surviving, wishing and hoping. That is the way it has been for the most part for over two thousand years. And, even during this transition between ages we are pulled mightily by the way it has been for so long. Our cells are shaking off the energetic programming and the truth of our being, our world, and our Universe is quickly revealing itself from the inside out and the outside in.
