← CHAPTER OVERVIEW

Let your heart be your guide

Dear Creatrix,

How did you like learning and thinking about the archetypes? What have you learned about yourself?

The guiding question for this chapter is:

How can we use our unique abilities, gifts and talents to contribute to the highest good of all?

And I think we learned a lot about that in the past three weeks.

Today, I’d like to ask you what your deepest and truest desire is – in life.

We’ve talked about our life’s purpose, our unique abilities, but I believe we also all have a driving force, something that is guiding us, something we are looking for.

A need we would like to meet. This could be safety, belonging, recognition.

Just feel into yourself and see what comes up. You might also find a clue in the centre of your Wheel of Colours.

Because whatever it is, the best place to find it, to live it, to experience it, is in community.

To find, recognize and become a part of the communities that we are looking for, we envision a better world, the positive changes we’d like to see for ourselves and future generations, and to find other people who have the same vision.

Once we’ve found that, then we can begin to share what we have and with that contribute to creating the changes we seek in this world.

To be able to do that, though, we also have to acknowledge that we are indeed unique and special – that there is no one like us – and that what we have, who we are, what makes us different from others, and often, what at one point in our lives made us suffer the most, is actually our unique gift, that brought us to where we are and what allows us to share what we’ve learned in this world with the world — now.

The challenges we’ve been through in life opened us up to seeing what needs to change, and the work we do in the CREATRIX School, to grow into our most loving and kindest and strongest selves, enables us to create the changes we need in this world.

In a way, this chapter is the chapter that brings everything we do in the CREATRIX School together.

The rest of the year, in all the other chapters, we work on ourselves, we learn about ourselves, we learn how to meet and see ourselves in new ways – so that we can become the most confident, the most loving and the most creative versions of ourselves – so that we can become the person we wish to be.

And when we feel somewhat settled and comfortable in our new and more confident and empowered selves – it’s time to go out and start to join our powers and efforts with other people, and to create even more meaningful change.

In the introduction, I mentioned that there are two components we need to build strong communities, and we have addressed both already.

The first one are we, ourselves, as individuals.

The stronger, more reliable, trustworthy and supportive we become, the more everyone in our communities benefits.

The second component is to develop a clear vision of what we wish to achieve together – it’s essential to focus on a common goal to be able to create meaningful change.

And as this is the last week of this chapter – it’s time to bring it all together.

So, I’d like to ask you: What is the change you wish to see in this world?

And it doesn’t matter if it’s big or small, wherever your heart takes you, is the exact place for you to bring your energy, your love, your dedication.

And if it seems daunting or overwhelming, remember this:

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has. (Margret Mead)

Take it one step at a time, you have all the tools already. You can use the archetypes to think of people who’d be good as leaders, as press speakers, as advocates, as guides – and in the last chapter you got a blueprint for bringing any project into reality that you wish to make a reality.

It’s time to create the changes we seek to see in this world.

One last thing I’d like to discuss this week is the importance of forming temporary alliances.

Because as beautiful as our differences make our world, it also means that we might all have slightly different ideas and goals and wishes and dreams – and that while some of our ideals might match with some people, we might have completely opposing ideas in other areas of our lives – and that’s just fine and should not stop us from working together.

We need it all.

And today we will look at how to do that.

Practice: Building a Safe Cocoon

Building a safe cocoon

The practice comes in two or even three different versions, in this chapter.

I had this idea of creating a safe cocoon, to help us move through the world more peacefully, but my guides invited me to do something else, building a kind of Merkabah, a protective and empowering shield, so I will share both of these options with you to choose from, and even add in a protective bubble as well.

Ritual: Releasing Old Assumptions

Ritual: Releasing Old Assumptions

A Ritual & Prayer to release old assumptions about our bodies

Many of the thoughts, assumptions we have about our bodies are not even our own. They are what we collected by living in this world. They are insecurities projected onto us by others.

So, today we will explore a way to release these assumptions that we have about our body, that no longer serve us, so we can have a better experience in our bodies from now on.

Welcome to a new chapter in the CREATRIX School

Our lives are such incredible miracles.

Everything is moving, is changing at all times. We are always in motion, life is always in motion. Life is motion.

And we will become more familiar with the motion of our bodies, and what we like about them and what we need them for, and how we can influence their well-being, and our natural, radiant beauty in the best possible way in this chapter.

In this lesson, we start by becoming more familiar with the topic and also more aware of our bodies.

How do people see you, and how do you see yourself? Why does this matter?

And how would you like to be seen by the world? Let’s find out!

Body – Week 1 – Pt. 3

What do you (dis)like about your body? 👻

In today’s lesson, we will be very honest with ourselves, so we can heal and create the changes we wish for. 

For this, we are going to explore moments of feeling unsafe in our bodies, and moments in which we might have felt rejected for our bodies and how that has influenced our way of experiencing this world as well.

Then we’ll do a ritual to let go of the negativity we held on to about our bodies and begin to explore all the wonderful things we can do with our bodies.

More letting go and some New Ideas on Healing & Change

In this lesson, we will explore what it means to see our bodies and how we talk to them in new ways.

We will explore how healing works – without medication, and we will see how we can also change some of our features by talking to ourselves in different ways.

And we will explore why it is necessary to love ourselves and our experience for creating changes in a peaceful and joyful way.

How can we heal ourselves?

If you have allergies, or get a cold every year, if you have chronic diseases, food intolerances, migraines, if you need glasses or hearing aids, or medication of any sorts, if you take painkillers occasionally or often, if you don’t feel healthy or fit mostly or all the time, or think that your health is going to deteriorate as you age, you are limiting yourself – and if you wish, we will change the way you think about yourself and these things in this lesson today.

Because you can learn to heal yourself with your thoughts alone.

Thoughts on ageing (happily) & the Wheel of Colours & our Health

Today, we will first look at a few quotes and ideas that I found that might be helpful with our process of changing our beliefs, and then we will look at our Wheel of Colours, to find out how it can help us with healing and balancing our lives as well.

After that, we will think about age, and ageing, as that is on the one hand, a construct and illusion as well, and a necessity at the same time. And for that, we will time-travel a bit.

It’s going to be fun!

Balancing our new routines

Our bodies often quite like for things to stay the same, so they might not be excited about us changing our routine.

Being aware of that will help us to set up routines that last. For that, we will start crazy small, and level up bit by bit.

And we look at how to resolve blockages that might keep us from starting at all.

How do we define ourselves?

In today’s lesson, we will come back to the beginning again in some ways and explore how our bodies interact with other people in new ways.

When we started, we realized that others often defined us, now, we can use this knowledge and experience consciously, to positively influence others with our way of being, while protecting ourselves.
