The Spiritual Side of Silver Hairs
Your inner light is burning so brightly that the physical pigment has to step aside to let the radiance through.
When I used to help my mother apply hair dye, I would often open her hair strands and admire the beautiful, creamish silver strands sitting deep within her hairs.
I have seen many elderly women with this kind of hair colour, and it just mesmerizes me. It has such a luminous quality as if the hair has shed all its pigment to become a perfect reflector of light.
When we look past the physical triggers like stress and genetics, looking at greying through a spiritual lens reveals something profound:
Old Souls
I have noticed in my circles, friends, community many young people are turning grey.
Could these young people be old souls carrying within them vast amounts of wisdom, and maturity?
Perhaps, the silvering of the hair is the body's way of altering its physical appearance to match the actual age & maturity of the soul dwelling inside it.
Collective healing
Those who feel called to serve humanity in times of such great shifts often feel enormous emotional and energetic burdens.
When they use massive amounts of energy to anchor peace or clear trauma for the collective, that internal heat and exhaustion can literally bleach the hair, turning it to silver.
Going against the herd
I am surrounded by family members who have always dyed their hair. My mother did so well into her eighties.
The decision to grow my silver has been met with shock, disbelief and even attempts to change my mind.
Imagine going through the transition alone when nobody has walked the path only to keep defending your decision at every step.
And the kind of resistance I am facing only reveals how deeply we have been conditioned to equate youth with beauty, and to hide the natural signs of graceful aging.
My own Silver Journey
Every life altering event feels like death-and-rebirth experiences with something dying within me while something new is reborn in its place.
And this time, I have decided not to cover the evidence. I am going to grow out my silver hair, and shine my hairlight to the world! :) Founder Speaks
