Your Anger Is Sacred



Defending and protecting yourself is asserting yourself and your place in the world as you are.

Standing up for yourself is not being defensive, its being assertive about your truth. Don't water down, lean out and take steps back when the world gaslights you or expects you to swallow and take on what is not true about you. If the world says you did this and you are this way, it's in your birthright to say no to the false image they speak onto you. If they get upset it's not your cue to dim yourself and agree with them and fawn. Double down on your truth carefully and with consideration. Affirming your truth and reaffirming your truth as many times as necessary is mandatory. You don't attack and become violent. You stand your ground and acknowledge your anger that is activated to help you stand your ground even firmer. You are not wrong. You are claiming your rightful place and space in the world as a whole individual.

When anger is understood and used for its initial intent and purpose, anger is healing and sacred, it's life force energy, vitality, creation and affirming.


You have to dig up your anger, face it, talk to it, listen to it. In a world that vilifies anger, you have to be wiser than that. Anger is medicine when it understood and integrated as such. Unintegrated anger that you are not aware of is the dangerous one. Not wanting or be willing to address anger is exactly what makes one dangerous.


Facing it, allowing it to express in a safe internal container is how you extract its wisdom. Let anger run thru your veins and you'll discover new ways of being in the world. You'll unlock a new dimension of joy, aliveness, rawness, intensity and explosive passion. Integrated healthy anger puts you squarely in the world, makes you feel seen and it makes you feel bold, magnetic, powerful. Power means "I am sovereign", it has nothing to do with overpowering others, feeling superior to others, putting others down. It's feeling sovereign in your own skin and owning your boundaries.

Without anger, you can't love fiercely. You can't be passionate. You cannot stand in your truth because standing in your truth requires you to have access to the fuel of anger to thwart deception.
