22. My birth chart breakdown: understanding your paradoxical nature (feat. Karen Hawkwood)
Manage episode 490020784 series 3651590
You've probably been told there's something wrong with you: maybe you're "too sensitive" or "too impractical." Maybe one side of you is full of dreamy ideas, and another side of you is hyper-critical and cynical.
All of us come with internal contradictions. Most approaches to personal development ask you to "resolve" them... but what if these tensions are meant to be held in creative relationship instead?
In this episode, I'm letting you in on the paradoxes that make me ME. I've asked my longtime mentor Karen Hawkwood to analyze my astrological chart as a live case study of her method. Listen to hear more about:
- How we often woefully misunderstand our own medicine
- How to broker peace between different parts of yourself that rub against each other
- Why things like internal tension and struggle (which conventional self-development try to get rid of) are actually vitally important
- How to carry paradox intentionally and skillfully
You'll start recognizing your own patterns in ways that will surprise you, and ultimately liberate you.
