Abeona – Goddess of Leaving Your Comfort Zone

Abeona is a goddess of Ancient Rome and she was thought to watch over children’s first steps as they begin to explore their world. She supports us as we break out of our comfort zone and enter into new levels of independence, self-discovery and personal responsibility.

Abeona’s Message For You… 

I am the goddess who watches over your first steps. The one who encourages you to loosen the apron strings and to stumble forward on your own two feet. Because you can’t stay where it’s safe forever. At some point, you’re going to get inspired, you’re going to get restless, you’re going to get bored. 

And yes, you may meet resistance in this place. You may find yourself believing in your desire for everything to just stay the same. But the truth is, is that there is a whole lot of world out there for you to see. And it’s waiting for you. It’s waiting for you to get out there and meet it. 

I promise you adventure. I promise you new experiences. I promise you sights and sounds and smells and tastes and textures the like of which you could never have imagined while you stayed safely ensconced in your comfort zone. 

So are you ready? Are you ready to trust me? Trust yourself? Are you ready to take those first steps out into the world, the soles of your feet connecting with new lands? Are you ready to walk into your new life?

Items for Abeona’s Altar: Maps, prints of your feet, items from far-flung places, postcards, images of sights you want to see, a bowl filled with scraps of paper each daring you to do something that’s currently outside your comfort zone, any items that symbolise your independence.

    Abeona was the first goddess I ever received and still my fav (though am loving the journey they’re all taking me on year after year and can’t wait to work with Maeve next year!). But Abeona saw me commence the next big new phase of life and love remembering her still through each new, unfamiliar step x

    I ‘found’ this goddess in the encyclopaedia of gods. (2,500 plus gods…)

    Am I ready?

    I seek to know how much I still don’t know and, so far, I have been ready. This means my friends accuse me of never having been a child however!

    So perhaps Abeona can’t help me, or watch over me. Perhaps she all ready has, for the safe way to experience adventure comes not from one’s comfort zone, but from one’s competence. Perhaps this makes Abeona the goddess of competence.

    Bruce.
