Weekly Devotional: The Serpent’s Sentry (Week 12)
Guardian of the Inner Flame, who coils around the sacred fire to shield it from the biting winds; who knows that true power lies not in constant battle, but in the unwavering strength of a boundary:
This week, we honor our Power of Protection. We recognize that as we have built our sanctuary and integrated our many voices, we have also become the sentinels of our own peace. We release the obligation to be accessible to everyone at all times — the exhausting demand to “mask” our true nature for the comfort of others. We choose to embrace the Serpent’s Sentry: the quiet, watchful awareness that decides who and what is worthy of entering our sacred space.
