Understanding Sovereignty
An extract from my forthcoming book: WordWeavers and SpellCasters
Remember that sovereignty is not about fighting the king, or the government, or even about fighting at all! It is about your state of consciousness, your personal consciousness that flows through you as an energetic stream and forms you as the person that you are. It is about the reclamation of your free thinking, personal analysis of what is being presented to you and making your own conclusions, not just towing the line or believing the narrative of the environment you are in.
It involves recognizing your entrainment, the way that your upbringing, your society and your environment have all formed the way you think, contained the way you think and instructed you how to think, thusly creating a limitation in your expectations of life and of self. This is a type of compartmentalization of the way you analyze, process and recognize that which is outside of your experience or entrainment, and whether or not you dismiss it, investigate it, or allow it to be observed in neutrality and, like an a la carte menu, take what is true for you and allow the rest to just be a part of that which exists but does not form your set of ethics, morality, belief systems, programs or the complex make up of ideologies that you have.
Allow those ideologies, theologies and other ologies to be fluid. That which you believe and operate from, that which you engage with life from should be investigated regularly with the new information. Expose it to the self and investigate whether it still holds true for you. Bring it to the surface and prune it, discarding that which is old information, that which was formed as a conclusion from the younger mind, from the earlier feelings. Refine it to reflect who you are in the state you are now, or look at what is good about the belief systems you hold and are you honoring the good thing, or have you forgotten the joy that they brought to you? Then nourish those parts, bring them to the forefront and explore them from many angels, in a multitude of ways, that allow you to create a flourishing creation of nourishing ideals and foci of the self, of your consciousness and the true sovereignty of thinking that creates the embodiment of the happy human, the free human, the sovereign human.
A state of personal autonomy and sovereign being is a state of consciousness that allows you to flow the energies and consciousness of self, in peace, in calm, in presence, and in happiness without the rage and anger, the outrage and violence of fighting the system, of sharing your vitriol or naming and shaming. It allows you to see all that is occurring, all that is around and simply be neutral about it, bringing the self back to self and flowing with the flows of peace, calm, happiness and joy. Yes, it exists, whatever ‘it’ is, but so does everything else, so what is your attention on? Your attention is a magnifier, so what are you magnifying? Bring your attention to the state of sovereign consciousness and stream the flows of peace, calm, love and presence whilst disallowing all forms of abuse, including the self-abuse of focusing on the ‘horror out there’.
