Your Shadow is Sacred. It holds all of your possibilities.

THE SHADOW IS SACRED.

It is time to decolonize your Shadow Work.

The Shadow is keeper of all you are and could ever be. It is not something to fear or control. It is not the holder of your shame.

Working with the Wound.

The Wound is where your Sacred Shadow encounters the expectations of society and falls short. Most shadow work addresses the wound as the shadow. It is where you learned you are “too much” and tried to become acceptable.

Embodiment.

Embodiment work is integral to Sacred Shadow Work. It is re-membering that your body’s messages are not poison. They are the key to a liberated life. Liberation requires a relationship with your body.

You are the Archetype.

We learn that the archetypes are mirrors. Utilizing certain asteroid placements, we explore how the myths of demonized beings (through a decolonized lens) point us toward an understanding of self that allows for expansion in your capacity to hold your complexities.

There is no final arrival.

Capitalism has taught us that there is some mythical final form to achieve. Sacred Shadow Work keeps the understanding that we are moving through these spirals simultaneously and that the journey is where we find the ability to hold space for both/and.

"Working with Samar has really just shifted me in the best way possible. It’s helped me get a better understanding of who I am, what I need and what is going to work for me, what I need to let go of and take that energy and pour that back into myself, my work, my life.
