What is the Black Cat Energy?
There’s something about a black cat.
She doesn’t come when called. She might circle your legs, brushing up with just enough contact to keep you wondering if you imagined it. She disappears when she pleases, reappears when she’s ready. She doesn’t chase, she chooses. That’s black cat energy.
Think blockbuster Actress Megan Fox who exudes this confident, sultry energy both on screen and off. Or Kim Cattrall’s character from Sex and The City, Samantha Jones, the PR powerhouse, who always walks through life boldly and values her time.
How can you find your Confident Self?
Black cat energy is the embodiment of having a quiet power, divine detachment, and magnetic presence. It’s all about being fully in your feminine, the black cat energy doesn’t chase or plead for approval, it’s about being confident in who you are and not rolling over or the acceptance of others.
Practical Tip
Instead of running or asking for attention, someone in their black cat energy lets the attention come to her, reflect on whether your being social with others for your own validation.
You don’t compete. You don’t perform. You exist, and that’s enough to captivate.
Master the Pause
When people, especially romantic interests arise, start practising not rushing into everything.
Practice pausing before you start dating someone new and reflect on whether this person will add value to your life.
Don’t feel the need to reply instantly, you don’t always need to let people know every thought you are thinking.
Practical Tip
Begin to pause and ask yourself things like :
Do I want him?
Does this opportunity serve me?
How does he make me feel?
Does this energy match mine?
Don’t Chase, Lean Back and Receive
Using the black cat energy in dating, let him or her initiate. Let opportunities come to you. Let people show who they are without you guiding or fixing.
Your job is to observe, not pursue. You’re reminded to take control of creating the life you want to have, and others are simply a part of that journey.
Practical Tip
Check in with yourself and ask: Are you reaching out to others to validate yourself? Or is your energy calm and magnetic?
Move With Intention
Every black cat moves like she means it. No rushing. No frantic energy. Consider and make your choices of how you spend your day, to be the choices that reflect the life you want to create for yourself.
Come prepared and organised to work, take time to make yourself feel and look confident in how you present yourself.
Practical Tip
Whenever you leave the house, even to go to the local shop, leave looking your best, and feel confident in yourself as you make your way into the world with intention.
Create Mystery, Not Confusion
Keep some things for yourself. You don’t owe everyone access to your emotions, your past, or your plans. Share what you want to share, but also protect your inner world, don’t feel the need to validate yourself to others by giving them your whole life story.
Black cat energy harnesses the power in being reserved. That’s where your power lives.
Practical Tip
When meeting new people, let them do most of the talking, avoid word vomit.
Curate Your Energy Like it’s a House You Live In
Would a black cat sit in a chaotic, draining room? No. She walks out, searching for something that is more her vibe. Start to reflect on the desired energy you want to be in as you move throughout your day, and try not to shift it or change it for others.
With people, conversations, apps, and environments that don’t feel like they align with you or bring value into your life, see that it’s okay to walk away on your own path.
Sometimes it’s better to enjoy your own company, than to hang with people who don’t align with the life you want for yourself.
Practical Tip
Start protecting your peace like it’s sacred, if you feel something doesn’t feel good for you to be doing, reconsider it.
Affirm Your Worth
In a world where we constantly compare ourselves to the lives of others, it’s time to take back the power. Instead of being judgemental of yourself, try to become your own biggest cheerleader.
At the end of the day, you, yourself are the only one experiencing your own life, and your experience will be so much more enjoyable when you back yourself.
Practical Tip
Try daily affirmations, that can help refrain your thinking, and remind yourself to step into control of your energy.
Speak it into your mirror. Feel it in your body. Remind yourself:
“I am magnetic. I am worth the pursuit. I don’t chase, I attract
The True Black Cat
Remember that black cat energy isn’t about being aloof or unavailable, it’s about being in alignment with your worth. It’s all about respecting those around you, but reserving yourself to become your higher self.
Not persuading people on why you deserve attention, or waterning yourself down to fit in, or chasing respect from people. And the beautiful truth is this: the right ones, whether it be lovers, friends, clients, or opportunities will feel your energy and rise to meet it.
