Abundance isn’t just about wealth—it’s about balance, trust, and embodying the fullness of who we are. As we shift into a new collective paradigm, the interplay between divine masculine and feminine energies becomes crucial to understanding and achieving true abundance.
For me, this has been a deeply personal journey—one that reflects the greater changes happening in our world.
My Journey: From Free Spirit to Military Stability
It surprises people when I tell them I joined the military. I was a child of art, flow, and creativity—a true free spirit. Yet I craved stability, financial freedom, and proof that I could create something tangible with my rational mind. The military, an archetype of both the wounded and divine masculine, gave me all of that.
It forced me to lean into my logic, my rational mind, and my ability to plan. These were parts of me that had been underdeveloped before. I thrived in this environment and successfully created financial stability and freedom for myself. But here’s the catch:
Even when you’re financially free, if you’re operating from a wounded masculine energy—pushing, planning, grinding—you might never feel free.
The Wounded Masculine in Abundance
Wounded masculine energy tells us:
- You’re not enough. Do more.
- Plan harder. Push further.
- You can’t rest; you’ll lose everything.
Even after creating abundance—freeing myself from societal, familial, and economic pressures—I found myself stuck in this cycle. The grind and hustle culture was so deeply ingrained that I still felt the need to prove myself. The wounded masculine, with its endless striving, had become my default.
But the truth is, abundance isn’t just about financial freedom. It’s about recognizing and feeling the abundance you’ve already created. And that’s where the divine feminine comes in.
Leaning Into the Divine Feminine
2025, the numerological year of 9, is a year of endings—a perfect time to release old patterns. For me, this marks the start of my 32nd revolution around the sun (numerologically 5, the number of freedom). I am dedicating this year to fully embracing my divine feminine energy.
The divine feminine teaches us:
- Trust the flow.
- Surrender to abundance.
- Allow rest and creativity to guide you.
In this energy, there’s no need to grind. The feminine knows how to nurture what’s already been planted, to receive with ease, and to honor cycles of growth and rest.
The Yin and Yang of Abundance
True abundance requires balance between the divine masculine and feminine:
- The divine masculine provides structure, stability, and aligned action. It’s about creating containers for abundance to flow into.
- The divine feminine brings trust, intuition, and receptivity. It allows abundance to grow naturally without force or control.
When these energies work together, abundance is effortless. The masculine can rest and heal, while the feminine takes the lead, and both energies flourish.
The Goddess Tithe: Honoring Abundance
One way I embody the divine feminine in my abundance journey is through something I call the Goddess Tithe. I make offerings to myself by dedicating 10% of my income to my Acorns account. This money is untouchable—it grows and symbolizes the abundance I honor within myself.
For over a decade, my Acorns account has yielded a steady 10% return on investment. Watching it grow feels like a ritual of self-respect and empowerment. It’s about honoring myself as a divine entity and giving my future self the gift of abundance.
You could create your own version of a Goddess Tithe. It doesn’t have to be 10%, and it doesn’t have to be an investment account. Maybe it’s a jar on your shelf, a symbolic offering to your future self. Whatever it is, let it be a reflection of your dedication to your abundance journey.
Financial Energy and Nervous System Rest
There’s a fascinating connection between financial stability and our nervous system. I’ve learned from Christie Marie Sheldon (a financial energy guru) that reaching a certain financial cushion—perhaps $20,000–$30,000 for some—can allow your nervous system to finally rest.
This isn’t about greed or hoarding; it’s about creating a sense of safety within. When we feel secure, we can relax into abundance rather than hustling from a place of fear.
The Paradigm Shift in 2025
The year 2025 isn’t just a personal year of endings for me—it’s also a collective turning point. Hecate, the goddess of crossroads, has delivered a message: our view of money is about to change.
We’re transitioning away from the wounded masculine approach to wealth—pushing, striving, hoarding—and into a more divine feminine paradigm. This shift will help us see abundance as a collective energy.
The divine feminine understands that true abundance is shared. When we rise together, we create a world where everyone feels supported and secure.
Final Thoughts
Abundance isn’t about pushing harder or planning endlessly. It’s about balance, trust, and surrender. By allowing the divine feminine to lead while the divine masculine rests and heals, we can create a life of true freedom and flow.
If this resonates with you, consider starting your own Goddess Tithe or a similar ritual to honor your abundance. Open an Acorns account, let your investments grow, and trust in your own divine energy.
Together, as we move into this new paradigm, we can create a world where abundance is shared, celebrated, and felt at a collective level. 🌙✨
Here’s a link to open your Acorns account (yes, I’ll get a kickback—but abundance is meant to be shared!).
2025 is the year of endings. Let’s release what no longer serves us and step into a new, abundant way of being. The divine feminine is rising, and with it, we rise too.
