I think about super powers a lot. I think we all have them. Perhaps not as overtly as in the show, Heroes, but in reality, none the less. For some of us, they beam forth bright and obvious. For others, they lie latent, just below the surface and at times aching for emergence.
It has taken me 36 years to realize that my gift is shapeshifting. I am an bio energetic change-agent. I change and transmit CONSTANTLY. Sometimes it is as if I am speeding through multiple lifetimes. Adapting to challenges. Morphing my thoughts to uplevel my vibration under the most trying circumstances. Changing my whole look as I float through specific groups for work or play. It isn't something I have consciously considered until now, actually. But as I write about it, I see more and more how much I have realigned myself as a life practice.
Mastering the art of shapeshifting is vital and juicy for me. I am somewhat obsessed with the transformation and transmutation of energy on emotional (upleveling emotions to joy), mental (changing my thoughts) and physical levels (hooping, raw food, nutrition and dance). It is the invisible thread which unites all my diverse interests. It is that elusive gift I think I may have which I could never quite identify.
I think this is why I feel a surge of passion about performing hooping. A rush which I felt last night while performing at the Hoop Path retreat was the feeling that I could morph my physical and emotional body into a brand new shape, color and tone while dancing. It was almost like turning the dial on some intergalactic antennae. I chose to transmit a specific emotional frequency. What was even more zingy was realizing that the message had been received... at least 5 people said that they cried while I danced. Not that I was trying to transmit a feeling of sadness or grief, but I realized that the "total surrender to what is" which I have been feeling during these great changes in my life, the "letting go" ... that "surrender sense of being achingly alive, coming home to myself and growing", was received. Even though I have had many tears with my own experience of this, the last thing I expected was for some people watching to share that with me! It was like I was really able to share a part of who I am. Neato.
Are you that birdie sitting outside my window right now?!??!?

I feel so privileged to have witnessed that with my own eyes and definitely got your message! Haven't been so moved by such a powerful, honest performance in I don't know how long. Your gift has always inspired me and now I feel even more determined to find, and express, such wonderful authenticity & feeling.
All love, Lisa B

It's one of the main talents of a super high level shamanic master in peru, to be able to shapeshift into different animals - to go into a meditative state and consciously will oneself to shift the vibrational antennae, and attune to a different embodiment.
i feel you, learning how to attune ones inner energy to a higher state is THE WORK, and learning how to channel that energy at a higher emotional frequency is a sign of elevated mastery, me thinks. we are vessels, channels for the divine to flow through us, so in order to do that, we have to keep clearing ourcellves out to be able to more fully allow that to flow through.
especially in performance, for me it becomes almost effortless most of the time - a certain amount of high spiritual energy, high vibe energy comes through and it can be overwhelming, it's a total HIGH, that's why we do it! It's so much FUN to move that much energy through, and it's amazing from the internal experience, but it's always amazing to observe how it's experienced and received by the external, isn't it? we can become such a more profound experience for the whole world when we allow ourcellves to fully emerge in their wholeness, we become medicine embodiers.
