16 Mar The ‘Who am I?’ Question Goes Deeper Than You Think!

The ‘Who am I?’ question goes deeper than you think. In our present climate, people are doing a number of different things to try to get to the bottom of their identity, from DNA tests, to surname research and in the process re-evaluating and excavating their history for themselves.

To say that we have been lied to is an understatement.

Therefore, going on a journey to uncover a history which makes sense while it is rewarding can also be infuriating, depressing, and potentially take you on a journey where you have to re-learn everything you thought you knew. 

Nevertheless, the work of answering the question Who am I?, must be done. And some of us will feel compelled to go deeper than others.

For many of us a better understanding of what is happening for us psychologically like discovering the the archetypal parts which make up ourselves or gaining an awareness of our inner child and having an encounter with our inner feminine resolves so much of what we need to understand about ourselves. As a result once we have a grasp on these aspects of our internal landscape – we’re good.

But for many others of us, when we for instance discover that we were not taken to the Americas as slaves stolen from Africa but in fact were indigenous to the Americas all along, or that much of the whitewashing of Europe was done to strategically remove our ancestors from history and to leave us to grow up with a minimised self-identity and way of seeing ourselves in the world which has done us and our parents and their parents a great disservice. 

Whatever depth you need to dive, I encourage you to ‘go on that journey’ discover the reality of your identity, and let it infuse your sovereignty. Your sovereignty is foundational, however, a deeper understanding of who you really are can provide such a boost to your self awareness and reduce any compulsion to apologise for your existence. 

I have been working on making a physical version of my eBook ‘I AM’ which you get a free copy of when you sign up for my newsletter. This can now be purchased as a small paper back book. In preparing this version however, it was impactful to revisit this book which was downloaded to me some time ago now. I was struck by the potent reminder that looking through the eyes of others to ascertain our worthiness or acceptability is a very unhelpful, albeit all too common way in which to operate.

Sovereign beings do not apologise for who they are, nor do we seek to justify the identity we discover as we go on our journey to find ourselves. It simply is what it is!
