Soul Star Chakra | Armadillo | Aspen
I Honor My Uniqueness.
Do you often feel other people’s feelings and confuse them for your own? Or maybe you experience exhaustion and emotional overload when around certain people? Armadillo brings the message of good boundaries so you can discern your feelings from another’s. As a sensitive person, it may be challenging to shine your unique light if others don’t feel good about themselves. You may often think they feel a negative way about you instead. All of those subtle feelings can block your throat chakra and make it hard for you to speak up or it can leave you feeling nervous and unsettled.
Armadillo brings you balanced empathy and containment so that you aren’t an overly-empathic sponge for everyone’s feelings. With proper boundaries and balanced empathy, you can be a compassionate human being and still stay true to YOUR feelings, goals, gifts and talents. Notice if you shrink yourself so other’s won’t feel envious of your light. No one can do the work for another person so it is important to refrain from trying to save or fix everyone. Armadillo brings the reminder to create a strong shield of energetic protection so you don’t feel responsible for everyone else’s feelings and you can fully contain, nourish and honor your uniqueness.

Action Steps:
Self-care is crucial for developing a strong shield to determine where YOUR energy ends and another’s begins. Daily exercise is very beneficial for this.
Alone time is one of the most important steps to clear your auric field of other people’s energy. Notice how long you can go without thinking of friends or loved-ones. Every time we think of another person, we bring their energy into our field.
Notice how you feel after being in groups or around certain people. Are you left feeling their feelings? Observe what you feel both in body and emotions.
Make an intention to stay in your own energy and see how that feels. Notice when you start merging with others and losing the sense of sovereignty.
Are you an empath? Have you always wanted people to feel good so that you can feel good? Do you constantly want to save or fix people? Remember that we can assist others, but we all have to do our own inner work.
Your greatest protection is to stay in your heart. Nothing can penetrate the love frequency. Notice what it feels like when you are in the heart versus when you are not.
You may be sensitive to unseen energies. Explore developing your extrasensory gifts so you know if your anxiety might be your ability to feel spirits.
If you feel overly emotionally sensitive, talk therapy can help you work on your trauma triggers so you no longer take everything personally.
Call on a shield! Tell your higher-self to surround you with an armadillo shield, a colored energy bubble or a mirrored bubble so everything gets reflected back to the person you are interacting with.
Try yoga! A yoga practice will anchor you fully into your body and ground you.
Try the breathwork practice Kapalabhati to clear energies from your body and mind.
Do you often have a fear of the unknown, or abstract anxiety? Try the Bach remedy Aspen when this occurs.
Wear or carry the green gemstone Prehnite to help protect you from absorbing other peoples feelings.
