The Mother
/ The Father
In your light, you are the great caretaker. You feel like a safe harbor, grounding and supporting those around you with a generous spirit. You embody the energy of the earth in your stability.
But right now, your narrative is heavily weighed down by your core pain points: a loss of identity and feelings of resentment because of this. In the shadow, you love by grasping and trying to control outcomes. Because your identity has become wrapped up in the well-being of others, you consistently sacrifice yourself—causing a hidden, suppressed anger to grow.

Get to Know Your Narrative
Set a timer for 10 minutes every day for a week, and write without stopping (this starts your narrative therapy journal practice!):
Who am I when I remove my role as caretaker to my loved ones?
How does caretaking benefit my growth; where does it not
What is my resentment trying to tell me about my lost identity?
What if this role you’ve been playing was just a placeholder, and your true story is finally waiting to be written?
