Message from the Water Dragon:
"I’ve come to remind you
where your power lies; it lies in the darkest depth of your being. It comes
from the places you’ve disconnected and buried, from the places that scare you.
It is hidden in your fears and in the raw emotion you’ve learned so well to
keep in check. It lies within the shadow that you’ve been conditioned to
hide, because acknowledging it is unacceptable. It makes you vulnerable
and real and imperfect, and that is not how you've been taught to allow
yourself to be seen.
But in that raw, unfiltered
state where your longings and fears reside, lies your path; The keys to
uncovering the authentic you that you have come here to express. Buried there
is the reason for your incarnation and journey, and the truth of your ultimate
connection and oneness with everyone and everything around you. This is the
place that offers you the ultimate guide to authentic power. By
acknowledging, embracing, and understanding your deepest longings and fears,
you gain the clarity, insight, and wisdom housed within your authentic self.
The power you seek has been with you all along.”
