The Piscean era conditioned people to lie to each other. It birthed spiritual chauvinism: the assumption of what someone should look like if they’re a guru or on a spiritual path, and the judgment that follows when someone doesn’t meet this expectation. This stereotype is used to sell so many things, but you can’t buy spirituality. You can’t pay your way into an initiation, you have to do the work yourself. This is the Age of Aquarius, one of self-initiation, which is hard work. It takes power to decide you’re going to have enough spiritual maturity and responsibility to do something with yourself.
Disrupting spiritual chauvinism is a way to discover your sovereignty. Part of our job as leaders in this time is to deconstruct these assumptions within ourselves. When you examine yourself, you also examine how you judge others. So, one of the best mantras is “no” – reject stereotypes that don’t support you, refuse to engage in neurotic behavior, and set boundaries that serve your best self. The stereotype of a compassionate person is toxic because they would be walked all over. “No” is a very compassionate mantra, as true kindness comes with some honesty. The “Spiritual No” is a safe space where you learn more about yourself.
“I want you to use your practice to really... cut through any places you’re being indulgent with yourself. Because self pity is a pit that you fall into every time you decide you’re gonna feel sorry for yourself.” – GJ
