Our Rage is Mirrored in Pele's Volcanic Activity

Pele Teaches Us
That Our Rage Is Purposeful
I’ve been noticing a trend in clients reaching out to restart or start coaching sessions with me. There’s an energy of readiness for those who have been sitting on this idea of breaking free from the conditioned mind that limits their ability to fully live in truth and purpose.
As someone who makes connections between the human experience and how nature behaves, I know that there’s a metaphor showing up here. As Pele, the Hawaiian volcano aka Kilauea has been showing me, has been erupting for quite a few months with over 30+ episodes viewable on the USGS live stream.
She’s always been a nature deity I rely on to be that mirror for my own emotions as I navigate this world and my spiritual development. She, along with all other volcanoes along The Ring of Fire have been showing us is that our rage here and is valid. And our rage comes with purpose.
IT IS NOW TIME to activate, engage with the ruptures we need to start so we can live in right relationship. Time to clear the canvas, reset our consciousness and begin building the world that is actually aligned with nature, not extracting of it. This is what Tutu Pele does: she comes in and cleanses the land by resetting the landscape and creating new land with the most fertile of all soil types. It its time for our own REBIRTH.
If you’ve been feeling a sense of emotional overwhelm, maybe even rage, just know that this is your nature, your body signaling to you that something isn’t right. What if you were able to run with that big emotion and figure out what enrages you and where does that come from? Chances are you’ll find some values around justice, fairness, maybe even integrity come up.
Whenever I self examine my emotions and reactions I try to look to nature and things that naturally happen to give me clues about how the human experience works.
How does nature recover from extraction/destruction/imbalance? Perhaps our strategy can be the same for our own bodies.
These connections to nature and ourselves are ancient ways in which we navigated life pre-colonialism. So, reclaiming this practice of reading nature and being in relationship with it are sure ways to sustain ourselves, solve problems within communities, and learn how we, as individuals, can grow and heal by observing how nature does it.
