One of the most devastating attacks on a woman's spirit is an unsupportive mother-in-law who sees her daughter-in-law as "beneath" her. Years of enduring the psychological impact of such a dynamic can leave a woman believing that she is, in fact, beneath others.
Let me be clear: I am not beneath OR above anyone, and neither are you.
Here's the fix:
Queen of Swords + Queen of Wands
The Queen of Swords is very much "Ice Queen" energy. She has the power to freeze a moment and examine every angle with cool, detached logic. Emotions evaporate when she enters the chat.
The Queen of Wands, by contrast, *takes* emotional energy and transforms it into action. Fire energy is your willpower.
Next time you feel this or any other emotional sucker punch, use ice to isolate the emotion, to feel it physically, then channel that fire into controlled, aligned action. Kind of like entering an igloo for shelter from a storm, then building a fire therein to keep warm.
Emotions are just energy that can be used as fuel. The only question is what will you do with it?
