✨️Sacred Cycles Oracle Guidance✨️
21. Luteal
I Clearly See the Path in Front of Me
The Luteal phase, or premenstrual phase, of thw womb cycles occurs after ovulation when the estrogen hormone begins to dip and progesterone becomes more dominant... allowing you to turn this phase into one of discernment & firm boundaries.
The luteal phase is often associated with intense, difficult emotions that "hinder" one's day to day. But, that is where the medicine lies... the luteal phase shows you where your attention is still needed in your healing, where boundaries are needed to protect your energy, & where you have been giving far too much of yourself to the world around you.
There is wisdom within these emotions, magic in what you are to discern from these emotions, healing to be had working with these emotions as a map to uncover the wounds & shadows. The luteal phase allows gives you the chance to turn your focus inwards, looking at yourself, your relationships, work, & life from all angels... it gives you the chance to see what is indeed working for you & what isn't & needs to be shifted for your greater good.
The luteal phase provides healing medicine & clarity for anyone willing to dive deep within themselves & investigate the reasons behind these heavy emotions. It provides you with the time & literal hormonal shift that shows you your shadows & areas where you need to give yourself more attention & love. It is a sacred time that we have been programmed to believe is a hindrance rather than seeing the truth of the magic it brings.
Now is the time, my friend, to go within & do the internal work necessary for you to thrive within this world. Don't let the emotions of the luteal phase fool you, these emotions are necessary, they are divine, & they bring with them the understanding you need to heal & shift into the person you truly are, you have always been.
