I was born to go against the status quo. I bought The Secret Language of Birthdays from the used book section at the library for five bucks maybe three years ago. I know I’ve read my birthday before but this time around it makes so much more sense. What exactly is an iconoclast? It’s someone who challenges established belief systems, traditions, or institutions. They’re often perceived as rebels, nonconformists, or radicals who challenge the status quo and traditional ways of thinking. I’m gonna vote they like to question authority as well.
Suddenly my eyes are opened ever so slightly more as to what I am and what I’m here to do. I think it’s fair to say my mind was blown in the same exact moment I exhaled a little sigh of relief. I always knew marching to the beat of my own drum was my cup of tea but it’s always nice to receive confirmations along the way. A little reassurance goes a long way in my world.
Iconoclasts are known for questioning and challenging established norms such as religion, politics, and social structures. I’m gonna go so far as to say questioning our entire history right along side the origins of our species. It also explains my curiosity for the truth with the Holy Bible. The number one selling book of all time and most don’t have the slightest clue some of the interpretations and translations are completely inaccurate.
Iconoclasts often feel the need to break free from existing paradigms and create new ones leading to innovation and change. As an agent of change myself that is exactly what I’m looking to do and it has everything to do with the awakening of humanity in preparation for New Earth. Change is exactly what we need and that change starts with us. We need to be the change we want to see.
On the flip side, the term iconoclast can have a negative connotation and be seen as a destroyer or as someone who attacks belief systems. When you spend most your life believing a certain way it’s difficult to see things through a different lens, especially when it goes against everything you’ve been taught. It can be misconstrued but should rather be seen as a positive catalyst for change, as bold thinkers we challenge the status quo simply for the sake of betterment, not to mention truth. But I get it, nobody likes to be wrong.
Jesus was iconoclastic, which should come as no surprise, however he was ultimately crucified for going against the very status quo we see today that is still desperately in need of change. Here we are two thousand years later and still under the same paradigm living the same fallacy. I can say with confidence though that it is now, finally, slowly but surely, starting to be dismantled one discovered truth bomb at a time.
The book brought me quite a bit of clarity, not to mention gave me another boost of confidence to keep me going. My current interest and field of study has me somewhat tiptoeing quietly around my neighborhood and I can’t help but now find solace in my solitude as I’m discovering more and more about all the truths that have been buried for millennia.
The book continues to say that those born on April 13th are exceptional individuals who are often forced to be true pioneers, blazing new ground in an attempt to find their place in a society with which they are basically at odds with, and often with a desire to rewrite the rules. Powerful in their expression April 13 people are capable of working alone and can go unappreciated for years.
It takes me back to my prophet messages and I can’t help but now feel as though they speak to what it is I’m here to do. I find it amazingly peculiar that the messages made sense to not just the real time situations a few years back but also my future as my journey continues to unfold. It never seizes to amaze the magical wonderment of how the universe works. While some of it is mystical and mysterious it can also be crystal clear in showing me exactly what’s next or where I’m at.
The first message tells me not to be discouraged. The second was all about appreciation and how someday I will achieve it. The third message was a big high five from my team, it doesn’t go unnoticed how much I care for others, and I’m going to go with humanity as a whole now. They said my love was genuine which counts more than anything. The fourth message spoke loud and clear telling me not to fear the future, do not fear the consequences. I’m here to determine God’s will and when I do, keep moving forward (no matter what). I’m reminded not to worry for I will be guided each step of the way, taking one step at a time.
A big part of God’s will in my opinion is delivering truth and if by doing that I have to go against the majority than that’s what I have to do. If ever there’s any hesitation I gently remind myself with a little chuckle that it’s exactly what I singed up for, which may inadvertently have me saying, what was I thinking lol. At the end of the day my goal is to show others the validity of what may appear to be radical views in hopes that they too can see the truth that not only has been hidden in plain sight but also buried intentionally.
April 13 people are ruled by the number 4 (1+3=4), and (this was news to me) ruled by the planet Uranus. Uranus is associated with enlightenment, change, breakdowns and breakthroughs. Perhaps this explains my sometimes unconventional behavior as April 13 people are also influenced by Mars (another ruler of Aries) which represents desires, passion and ironically enough a willingness for conflict. The number 4 traditionally represents rebellion, idiosyncratic beliefs and a desire to change the rules, hence the desire to shake up the status quo.
In tarot I’m represented by the most misunderstood card in the deck, Death, the 13th card of the Major Arcana. Very rarely should it be taken literally for it signifies a letting go of the past in order to grow beyond limitations. With every death there is a rebirth and into the state of mystical death is a change in the form of consciousness. A change and transformation, a passage from lower to higher, into a rebirth, a renewal through creation.
When I learned it was the Death card my immediate response was to grab my traditional Rider Waite tarot deck and as all things invisible as my witness, on the first shuffle out popped the Death card which was then followed by the Sun card. I belted out the most astonishing laugh and almost fell over with excitement. I kid you not in the seconds preceding my shuffle the thought that went through my head was something along the lines of, watch the Death card pop out.
Amazing but not too surprising as I’m continuously moving forward with my ascension process and with every passing day I align more and more with the frequencies I agreed to come here with in order to anchor my Light which then enables me to show the way for the rest who choose to follow. With every passing day I mature a little bit more on my road to mastery as I’m reminded I’m being prepared for what’s to come. Slow and steady wins the race.
On a lighter note I did have an afternoon profundity not too long ago. I’m used to them coming first thing in the morning so I was pleasantly surprised to have acquired one out of nowhere midday. It’s a reminder for me that my journey isn’t always going to seem uphill. While one of my favorite things to say is I didn’t come here to play by the rules I also know from the depths of my soul I came here to heal. I came here to bring balance. I’m like your modern Superman bringing truth and justice while paving the way.
Love and Light
