Plant Oracle Series: Overwatering

Overwatering

Keywords: Boundaries; Codependency

I am a little bit confused, you see. Feeling heavy, full and unfree. My energy has depleted me amongst a sea of what has before nourished me. Bogged down and muggy, I am full of so much. I want to grow but the weight of my base is too much. I have been over-watered, given too much. Of something that really is good for me, but for my type of plant, only a little is enough. You see, it felt like there was a symbiotic synchronicity. Like together we were united in growth and solidarity. Yet in time, this connection has become weighted. Inseparable. Something that feels codependent, in which case, neither of us grow. Instead, the water becomes intoxicated, with things that do not natively belong here. And my soil cannot breathe, cannot hold space for me, here. It began with good intentions and I found so much comfort in it at first you see. But now, I find I am drowning in lack of authenticity. As much as it was good, I am seeking a balance. A little more definition, a little less challenge. Within that, I ask for boundaries you see. For I do not want to become a cracked foundation, dry and with disease. Nor do I want that for you, for you too deserve to be free. To swim, to snorkel and dive in your own authenticity. I love you, I do, but it is time for us to define ourselves and to be free. So that we may dance together, in our own unique sovereignty.


Affirmations:

I honor the balance between giving and receiving. I hold sacred boundaries. I am connected to my needs. I surrender in acceptance of what is true now and I hold courage to move towards that which feels more in alignment with me.
