Full Moon Libra 12° ⚖️🌅🌕

I have had So Many ah-Ha's in my short time here, as well as Many synchronicities from the Universe Validating the internal work I've continued to do through my chart, Embodiment rituals, & shadow work.

I've been tending to old triggers & Filling Myself Up, & what has Ultimately come through for me is We Chose How We Treat Ourselves. *No matter what you did or didn't learn from your mother/care taker, no matter how much or little money you have, no matter how you define your worth, no matter How Busy you keep yourself -

You Choose How To Treat Yourself.

Some people will feel confronted & offended by that, Immediately jumping to the excuses; some will feel very uncomfortable & Know it to be True, recognizing where they can do Internal work-& some will Absolutely Recognize this Truth, that All of our relationships stem from the one we keep with ourselves (or the one we Avoid).

I have Run from myself in So Many ways, but I am getting Much better at tending to myself in a Loving manner. Last night's Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power workshop centered around Isis, the Goddess of Magic & Regeneration. A core theme here was collecting & Re-Membering ourselves, learning to Mother ourselves through the Initiation of Loss/Grief, and how these difficult experiences are actually Meant to push us Inward, in Service to ourselves.

This Full Moon is activating my Fate/Fortune points, Pallas, my Libra Stellium-& it's across from the Inner child in Aries. This is creating a T Square w Jupiter in Cancer, pointing to Pholus outside Capricorn (discernment, allowing others to experience the consequence of their choices).

I have So Many 🎇 going OFF in my chart.

First off-I'm a Cancer Sun, so I'm ruled By the Moon. This Full Moon is in Libra, which is ruled by Venus (values), which is my chart Ruler (because Venus also rules my Ta**us Rising-abundance, worth).

Venus is Transition at the very end of my 12th H Ta**us, activating my AC.

Venus is Square transiting Pluto (death for Rebirth), which is Sitting on My Moon (emotional Reactivity, Nurturing self and others). Pluto over my Moon is also Trine Sedna in Gemini, which is about Relinquishment of family betrayals & understanding these cuts were Necessary for my spiritual progression.

I also have Uranus on my Chiron/Algol in Ta**us (Deepest Wounds/service/spirituality Or losing my head) Conjunct Sedna.

We also have Pele in Libra, Incinerating Unbalanced coupling.

I have So Many things I wanted to say in a video, but I read a book on the beach & took myself for dinner under the glow of this full moon, in the warm breeze.

If you're on a healing journey, learning to put your needs first & Advocate for yourself, it's important to acknowledge that Rest is RESTORATION. Rest, Receiving, Honoring Ourselves is part of the Integration of this Soul Alchemy. It's not Just for you, but for your ancestors who didn't have the opportunities we do and it's For your Daughters, whom you are Teaching how to Nourish themselves.

Where is this full moon hitting your chart & how are you Nurturing yourself? Jupiter in Cancer, Venus in Ta**us, Everything in Aries, Full Moon in Libra are All asking us to Turn our Healing Energy Inward, Amplify our Own Essence, & Let that Light Lead others To Us. ✨🧘‍♀️🌊😘

“It is not just your mother who may walk with you in spirit, it is her mother too. And her mother’s mother. And her mother’s friends, who loved by choice and not blood. And the women before them. Generations and generations of female energy, watching in admiration as you forge ahead living better, feeling better, accepting better, than they ever did. As they were much hoped you would.

So, when you feel low, lonely or unloved. Remember them, feel them. They are with you, and they burn brightly with their boundless light, in everything you do. You, my friends, are the ‘moment in time’ of many women gone before, and you will lay pathways, like they did, for those who come up next. “

I'm doing a little thing for myself...

Three days of massage clients canceled this week... & Instead of Freaking Out I thought...You should take yourself to the beach.

And Immediately the inner Boss was all "you have to mop, you have more taxes to do, you have 9 more workshops to plan, you should make dinner every night this wk for your husband...."

*Do you have Any idea what it's like to Work for yourself? 😅😵‍💫 Because I have NO Off switch.

But, I'm at the beach for 3 days, By Myself, with Books, Perfect weather, & NO tending to Anyone But myself.

And I'm So Proud of myself. Because last year these cancellations would have sent me into a tailspin & I would have justified Not spending more money because of it.

But I Knew I Needed a break, and I Knew I might not get another chance until July, and I Knew this Full Moon in Libra was hitting my FATE/FORTUNE points in my chart.

And Knowing Everything that is being Lit Up in my chart right now, I also Know it's the Most Perfect time to Jump into Rest, Pleasure, & Balance for my BodyMindSpirit.

And, I'm teaching on Isis tonight in my Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power -the Mother who Restores & Regenerates through Self Tending.

I haven't taken a solo trip that didn't include my massage table or tending to someone else's needs in 16Yrs. And now that I'm here Alone I'm thinking I Definitely need to build in a few days away quarterly.

The 5hr drive alone yesterday screaming 90s girl music at the top of my lungs with the windows down, sun on my shoulders, wind in my hair was therapy enough; but keeping the balcony door open and falling asleep with a book, under the glow of a ripening moon, & the sound of the waves All night long? PRICELESS.

Breakfast on the balcony, finding Shells, reading in the sand, swimming, & committing to the Slowing down and Integration part of my Own Healing journey, so I can show up Aligned in what I'm Preaching?
🤌🐚🌊📖

I want You doing this work so you can Thrive-not just survive. I want you to Say YES to Life when the opportunities arise, instead of justifying Denying yourself what you Desire. I want you to Trust in the Alignment of this work because you Trust in the Magic of your chart.

Everything about this Full Moon is Lighting Up BIG release for me, around past life Karma/justice in relationships & Learning to Advocate for my needs; so I Don't feel guilty about Choosing Myself for a few days.

And when you Truly commit to the Deconditioning of everything that's been layered on you, when you Understand the flow of transits Lighting up Opportunities in your chart, when You Say YES instead of shrinking back into the No's - That is where the Magic Truly Happens. ✨🙌

Sun 🌞 Saturn 🪐 Persephone 💀🌸

What has been seeded in the depths of darkness has taken root, is Ready to push through to the Light and Bloom, for All of Acknowledge. 🥹

Did you know the Sun & Saturn are in a Kazimi today, Amplifying the energies of a burning away of ancestral grief, a Rebirth of Identity, a Karmic transformation and Return to the Light? And Persephone is right in the Mix, the Dark Goddess who Embodied the Light & Dark, the passive spring maiden turned Queen who rules the Underworld, bringing compassion to souls in the dark and bringing lessons to those in the Light.

Persephone asteroid is in my 11th H Aquarius, the visionary working with the collective - & she is directly tied to my grief in Leo at the bottom of my chart; funneling the wisdom from childhood betrayal, stolen innocence, and Courage from the Depths to serve in the Light.

I now have a Persephone herbal tincture available, because true Embodiment of Light/dark & Truth comes from working with Mother Nature. Embodying these plants allows us to amplifying the energies of these planets in a more effective expression. 🌱

I am So Excited for the Women who step forward into this work with me as I get ready to open the Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power tonight!!! 🙌💓🤌🌌✨

This is my therapy 🌸🌄 I spent Hours at Biltmore this morning, walking on trails, taking pics of my favorite flowers, smelling everything in the greenhouse, & writing up new offerings while listening to Elevation sermons. I am So Grateful for days like today!

And I am So Excited and in Gratitude to the Women who've invested in the upcoming Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power - Thank You from the Depths of my Heart!!! I am So looking forward to connecting with you! 😍

LAST CALL FOR Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power

Who is withholding your power from you?

Is it the President? The last President? The One before that? The entire Left or the Entire Right? Is it All men?

Is it your Spouse? Your Mother? Your children? Your Boss?

If You aren't in Your Full Agency Is it ALL the Patriarchy's fault?

How many people have you blamed or will you lay blame on Before you face the shadows within?

Or do you Lack Power because You Refuse to face your Inner shadows? Is it because You Refuse to be accountable for your Own Perspectives & Agency?

When you Really want to move forward from whatever Darkness has encapsulated you, it is Imperative you stop pointing the finger and sit with your Own Darkness.

But our world is So Fixated on placing the focus outward, So Fixated on Avoidance of Self, Numbing of Pain, Silencing of Truth.

We are living in the Upside Down and if you don't Reclaim your Agency & FAST you're going to get Lost in the Delusions Many have Already been Swallowed by.

👑 Persephone didn't spend the rest of her existence crying in the Underworld. She Used the Wisdom of the Darkness she had been Swallowed up by, she Literally became a Discerning, Judgement Queen in the place where everyone thought she would die-& then she Brought her Compassion and Experience back to the Light, to Teach & Sustain Others

🪽 Isis didn't give up on finding her husband - her Tears of Grief flooded the land, creating nourishment for others; and she Manifested Wings so that she could Gather and RE-MEMBER her husband; she Also Created New Life from the Broken Pieces. Her Magic was Only Unlocked after being Initiated into the Depths of Despair.

🗝️ Hekate was cast into the Darkness, she represents the cycles of Birth/Death, the Spaces in between, where it feels we've been Abandon. But she didn't Quit-she leaned into her past, present & future Wisdom to Serve as a Light for Others in the Darkness. She Too became a Queen and she shows us How to Trust Ourselves & God, even in the darkest of times. Even in the pain of death, a New Self is Birthed.

🐦‍🔥 Pluto, the Lord of the Underworld, the Keeper of Riches, the Key Component of our Emotional Power. This energy is crumbling, deconstruction, Death for Rebirth; RE-Assembling the Most Powerful parts of Self After the FIRES of Initiation. It is Only Underground, in the Darkness that one may retrieve the Riches of the Soul.

If you're Ready to Walk Through, Please Join my Gates of Initiation: Descent into Femine Power workshop starting this Tuesday 3/24, 7pm.

This is a 4wk Journey into these myths, into Self, into the MAGIC of Your Unique Natal Blueprint and your Ability to ALCHEMIZE these difficult life Initiations. 👑🪽🗝️🐦‍🔥💓🤌🌙

Happy Equinox, Mercury Direct, Sun in Aries! 🌙♈🌞🌸

I Really wanted to get another post & email out to Remind y'all about my Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power workshop, but I Had to Tend to Myself today. It has been an extremely busy week, with massage, dentist/pelvic therapist, two chair massage events, & Life.

Today was my first day Home & Alone all week & with this Gorgeous weather I just could Not bring myself to deal with traffic Or the computer.

So I stretched on my yoga mat in the sun. I had coffee while grounding in the grass. I processed several tinctures out in the sun that I am SO Excited about, and I created a Lung Tincture. I had a Slow Intentional brunch in the sun. I made a pomegranate hibiscus orange & black currant bath blend. I made a nice dinner & am drinking tea. I have my fan in the window *which I Loveeeee* & there is No Husband home for the WKnd to trip my nervous system. 😅 Don't judge me, I am LOVING my Quiet time alone with NO Interruptions.

I caught this sunset from my front door this evening and just took time to watch it change the sky, and then I captured the crescent just above the tree-do you see it?

If you expressed interest in the workshop, I Really Hope you'll consider joining us Tuesday night 3/24 at 7!

We'll be journeying into Persephone, Isis, Hekate, & Pluto - all linked to death, grief, thresholds, & reclamation of POWER. These myths hold So Much Potency for understanding the difficult parts of our own story, and knowing these placements in your chart allows you to work with them to Your Highest Benefit.

If you have any questions about the workshop, Please drop them below. I'll put the link in comments, doors close Sunday and I Hope to see your face!

I am Absolutely DONE with the REWILDING community and Anything that comes from them.

I am SO Sick of the Performative Feminism and Spiritual Bypassing of Reality that these groups engage in & I will have Nothing to do with those who amplify Hysteria, support Lies, and go Against what they Profess to be For.

I am going to do an entire podcast and potentially series around this, and if you're Sick of 'Womens Groups' who cater to black magic language, forced inclusivity, Denial of what the Feminine Actually IS, you're in the right place.

I don't speak on this a lot, but the more that happens in our society to women/children the more I feel compelled to BE a space that Actually Stands for Women and Children, and if you can't Define what a Woman Is-this page is Not for you.

While my Goal is to help Women learn how to self advocate after trauma, the Way that's done is by peeling back the layers of where you've been deceived, where you've been conditioned, supporting you with Embodiment tools so you can come into the Truth of what is in front of your Eyes, Honor what your body is saying-& Speak.

I don't do Performative Lies to make Anyone comfortable because I Know how DANGEROUS that is. The Women that are looking the other way from the Harm being done to women/children in the name of inclusivity, the Lack of Boundaries and willingness to Stand up for your sisters and Protect the Innocent is not different than the Mothers that served us up as Sacrifice so they didn't have to fight back, and I am Done with women like that in my life, in my circle, in my Business.

I'm here to spark you into Reality because Healing from your s⚔️trauma and Learning to use your Voice, even when you're trembling, is Harsh and it Isn't for the faint to heart, and you can Not Do it (not with me anyway) if you're not willing to question, not willing to reflect on the things that make you Sick to your stomach, not willing to say I've changed and this is not ok.

*This is what I'm like when the Sun/Moon in Aries* 🔥

I have spent the last 24hrs supporting women in the comment section of a Poorly researched post Meant to amplify Hysteria but seemingly supporting women's Rights over on Instagram and I am Astounded at what Rewilding has become in an effort to cater (or Maybe, it always Was that and I'm Just Waking UP).

Either way, I Will be Speaking on this much More.

🔥 Men are Not Women and Nothing they do will make them women, or make me address them as such
🔥 The Feminine is Fierce and Her Truth is Destructive, meant to Burn down the Lies and Right what has become unbalanced in nature
🔥 The Feminine is Not Performative under the guise of Niceness
🔥 Gender ideology is emotionally manipulative, psychological grooming, physiologically mutilating, homophobic and Eugenics. I have been studying this from all angles for Years & You will Not change my mind about this.
🔥 Teaching women/children to go against their biological instincts is Abusive
🔥 Forcing this ideology onto women and children, Many of whom Are Survivors, is Predation & the Absolute work of Satan & Black Magic
🔥 Big pHARMa is the main entity that profits from preying on those in mental/physical distress.
🔥 True harm is done when we don't Speak up out of fear of being burned at the stake, but the ones who truly suffer from our Silence are the Innocent

This is a podcast I did linking together how S⚔️is made possible through grief/self silencing, and denying the Truth. It is Phenomenal for pointing out the ways in which we have ALL been deceived and it happens because we don't want others to suffer, but we Need to Heal ourselves so we can learn what is kindness and what/who is preying on our weaknesses.

If you were offered up as sacrifice by the people who were supposed to Protect you, this is a space for Raw Truth & Empowerment that comes from facing the very things we were taught to run from. 💓

There is also still time to sign up for my Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power workshop, which is very centered around Death & Transformation 🐦‍🔥

New Identity Birthed from Difficult Karmic Lessons & Hope, created from cutting away illusions and Rooting into our Values-from which we Serve others with similar wounds....

😭💓 I Really could cry over how Powerful this is and when I saw it last night I knew I had to take a few moments to speak on it, because it is So Deeply Aligned with my upcoming virtual workshop Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power -

Where we'll be diving into the myths of Persephone, Isis, Hekate, & Pluto-in our lives, in our charts. We'll be exploring how these themes around depression, loss, grief, abandonment, stolen innocence, lack of control ALL serve as Initiation portals Delivering us into our Highest Timeline.

While we're exploring the darker aspects of these myths, the Goal is to understand how to Achieve the Higher Vibration and Light that allows us to Alchemize these wounds and Truly Serve (which is exactly what all the astrology is about!)

In 2025 we endured the shedding of old identities in the year of the snake-in 2026 the year of the Fire Horse (Initiation, Illumination, Freedom) is pulling us forward into Who we are Meant to be, Not who we Were just to Survive.

To drive this point home, there is a YOD (aka Finger or God pointing to SOUL PURPOSE brought in from past Life) between:

• Pluto in Aquarius 5°- death for Transformation, power back to the people, rising above childhood limitations to pour our emotional wisdom into the collective through service, reclamation of our Emotional Power through willingness to see past Illusions. ***Uranus rules Aquarius, this is Lightning Energy catapulting us forward. Uranus is ALSO Past Life Trauma that lives in the nervous system. And Pluto is Hades, the one who pulled Persephone into the dark, indicating s❌Trauma.
• Hekate in Aquarius 5° - Queen of the Witches, the Birth & Death DOULA, in Same degree as the Lord of the Underworld, Literally giving us the Power to Birth our Service Born from the darkness Into the Collective!!! Hekate shows where we've walked through the darkness alone, where we must use Discernment around who we're willing to guide, and how we must lean into our Own past, present, and Future Wisdom to judge what Gets Birthed, what Dies away. These POTENT energies in the Same Degree AMPLIFIES the energy of Pluto/Hekate
• Persephone in Aries 5° - Embodied Goddess of Dark/Light, Queen of the Underworld, representing the cycles of the Dark Feminine, Descent into the unknown, time in the darkness, bringing wisdom & nourishment Back to the Light, Nurturing others with her Wisdom

These three energies form the Base of the YOD (ps, you should be looking at Anything that is within this base from 5Aries-5Aquarius in your chart)!

This energy is pointing to the SOUTH NODE IN VIRGO 8° - this is not Exact, but it's a Tight orb and Extremely significant, considering South node indicates what we're leaving behind-in this case, it's wounds of the Body (Virgo, earth, Body), And Virgo is Also the Sign of Healing & Service; so learning to Serve in a new more faithful way, one that releases us from the self sacrifices built on old identities.

If you're on a healing journey, there is no more potent time than NOW to be engaging with these myths, archetypes, and the cosmic energy to move you forward - & I am the Woman to help you better understand All of this in your chart!!

If you haven't already signed up for the workshop above, I would Highly recommend doing it ASAP!! You're going to get a copy of all my slides, journal prompts, & an herbal tincture from my own Essence Alchemy line to support your physical/spiritual/emotional evolution through this Descent/Ascent.

"Never have I been a blue calm sea, I have Always been a Storm" ~Stevie

Are you a woman who has weathered storm after storm? Because I am.

I am just Now on the edge of 44 feeling like I'm coming into the Calm of my life. I feel like I've been dealing with adversity since the beginning. And for So Many Years I struggled with how to navigate the inconvenience of the storms in my life, but what I know now at 43, it was All of those storms that eroded away the weakness, the doubt, the Fears-& Instilled a Resiliency, a Self Compassion, a Hopeful Outlook, Despite the pain and Darkness.

I know now that I'm meant to Lead other women through the storms of their lives & help them Understand that these painful portals are also Imitation Portals into our Higher Calling, into our Soul Purpose.

I know this not Only from my own experiences, but my astrology & human design work.

After weathering childhood trauma, s❌victimization from an early age that was foundation for self-harm, lack of boundaries, substance abuse; loss of parent, brother, friends; betrayal, abandonment, estrangement from family; infertility struggles, unemployment issues, and Deep wounds around my Worth - I have been Through Many difficult storms.

My love of the ocean and my Life has taught me that when we're drowning, Surrender & Trust is the Most Effective action. I know Many are struggling with the weight of the world right now, but I'm here for Women who Believe in the Light and are clawing their way towards it No Matter What.

On 3/24 I'm offering a new workshop, designed around the Painful Initiations women experience, So you can Understand how these Can create a Foundation for Your Soul Service & Light in this world.

My Entire business was created from pain-but I Am Thriving & have So Much JOY when I get to Help other Women Reclaim their Light, Magic, & Agency.

I'm taking 8 Women, details are in link in comments! 😘
