Southeast Grandmother

It is late morning and we see that an elderly woman has paused for a moment. She stands beneath a tree enjoying the beauty around her. She has a quiet assurance about her that tells us she knows who she is and what she believes. Don't let her quietude fool you though. She will fight without fear for what she thinks is good and right.

She has traveled the wheel many times and has not always met the Southeast in this guise. At times she has been helpless, angry, arrogant or manipulating. But now she glows with the beauty of her true self.

Like her, each time we meet this place on the wheel we present different aspects of our ego. Southeast Grandmother reminds us to stop and notice what we are reflecting to the world. As we begin to follow our heart, instead of living our life according to the expectations of others, we too begin to radiate our beauty.
