🟡 Fractal Persona of the Navel Chakra

Theme: Dependence, Drain & Borrowed Power

🌿 A Day in the Life of The Energy Thief
Energy Thief Oracle Card

I wake in the morning feeling empty, searching for a spark that isn’t mine. My gut feels restless, craving energy from somewhere—anywhere—to make me feel alive.

Throughout the day, I reach without thinking. I lean too heavily on others’ vitality, their joy, their fire. When I am with someone radiant, I feel whole; when they leave, I collapse into hollowness. My navel is not a flame of its own, but a siphon, pulling light from outside because I’ve forgotten how to kindle it within.

I take without meaning harm, but the imbalance grows. My connections weaken, my relationships strain. Still, the hunger gnaws, and I reach again.

At night, I fall into restless sleep, drained yet unsatisfied. Deep down, I know the fire I borrow cannot sustain me. To heal, I must turn inward, relight my own flame, and learn to live from my center once more.
