RELEASE OF SELF WOUNDING
🌸EMBODIMENT OF FAITH

"If you’ve harmed through self-destructive tendencies like I have, it’s important to understand that acts of self-care aren’t indulgent-they are a lifeline preventing you from further self-destruction."

In my latest Substack article I write about the Importance of holistic self care in these divisive times, when it's so easy to numb & avoid. The reality is that choosing to not face your pain head on only creates a festering wound that Will either need thorough cleaning Or it will lead to death.

I referenced a sermon I listened to this WKnd about Jesus being nailed to the cross, and how we nail ourselves & hang ourselves up in Virgoan energy.

Are you ready to get down from your own cross? Are you ready to pull the nails out? Are you ready to sit with the Void of that wound, so that you can begin the tending and cleaning process? Are you ready to remove the decay and let the light in?

If you struggle with allowing yourself kindness, if you don't know how to tend to yourself, if you're a hustler who avoids problems because you don't have the tools or don't believe you Deserve your own advocacy, I Encourage you to follow the link in comments to this Substack article.

This article also contains several videos around the Virgo Full Moon Eclipse energy, specifically a Grand Air, Earth, & Water Trine that includes several Empowering Goddess energies (Chariklo, Vesta, Medusa+++), Amplifying our opportunities for Healing.

I would also encourage checking out my events section and the link in the comments for my New Workshop starting 3/24!!!

Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power will be exploring themes around betrayal, loss, grief, stolen innocence, & abandonment and how those Voids are actually Initiation into self fulfillment, Embodied Healing, and Empowered Advocacy. πŸ’“βœ¨πŸͺ

Gates of Initiation: Descent Into Feminine Power

Persephone - Pluto 'stole' her Innocence but her Mother (Ceres) was keeping her from her Power. She represents how Surrender & Disconnect from what Appears as Safety can Ultimately Lead us into Who we were meant to Be. Persephone didn't Choose the Underworld, but she Did Choose to Return to the Light & bring Forth her Knowledge from Enduring the Darkness-& she chose to Continue Descending because the fruits of her labor Literally Fed those who haven't yet traversed the Dark.

Isis - It was Only through horrific Grief caused by Loss, and Choosing to Collect the scattered parts of her Love, that her Determination Literally gave her Wings (Freedom). From her choice to Release, Retrieve & Piece back together, New Life Emerged. What parts do you need to step forward & what do you need to part with? What are you birthing into this world born from your own grief?

Hekate - With the Sun & Mercury traveling through Pisces, we are in a threshold period. Mercury, the winged messenger who travels between worlds, is forcing reflection on spiritual beliefs, the afterlife, & how to Alchemize this last chapter into something that Serves for Healing of All. Nessus, the asteroid of ancestral trauma & Healing is with Mercury. Hekate reminds us that Even in the darkest of times, we carry past, present, future wisdom to Discern how to proceed. It is when we think we've been abandoned that we have the Greatest opportunity to Lean into our Own gifts around navigating crossroads.

Pluto - Normally associated with difficult & crumbling experiences, the Lord of the Underworld shows us how to surrender to these painful Initiations around loss, power, & what it Means to be in control. Pluto is where we reap the emotional wealth that comes after our time in the Darkness.

In this 4 part series, we will be diving into themes around codependency, betrayal, victimization & stolen innocence, loss, death, surrender, abandonment, and what it means to Truly Reclaim Your Agency & Sovereignty.

These experiences are Initiations into Deeper Tending to Self & we are in a Portal of Potent transformation. These workshops were designed around the end of Pisces season and the bridge leading us into Aries season for a Reason. We are Collectively at a Threshold where How We Proceed in the coming weeks will Determine our Ability to Fully step into Who we're meant to Be.

This is for Women who Know 2026 Is a Game Changer for them. They've Been doing the work, they've experienced the Harsher aspects of Life, they're Ready to Use gifts earned the Hard way to Light paths for Others.

If you've stopped asking "why does this keep happening to me" and have started to See & Feel how your Trials Can be used to Help guide others forward, I want you in this workshop.

I'm planning to take 8 Women, we start virtually through Zoom Tuesday 3/24.

RELEASING PATTERNS RELEASES PEOPLE 🎯

This is an older video but So relevant -

We often hear we should "release" with the Full moon & "plant seeds" with the new moon.

Tomorrow we have a Full Moon Virgo Eclipse 12° & I see a Lot of info about Releasing past versions of self - but we're in Eclipse portals babes, so whatever you're planning to Release, just know that there will be an Integration process of This, & that often looks like Relinquishment of relationships Dependant upon Your Old Patterns. 🀌

The Integration of Self Advocacy or the Releasing of Relationships is where most people get tripped up, and Laws of the Universe Require us to let go of something to make space for New/More to Enter.

If you want to Stop feeling like a victim, you're going to be given Many situations that Require you to Step Up. To Embody the Next Version of Self will Require tests-New Levels, New Devils.

And Please Know, the Most Important relationship we Have is the One With Ourselves! Are you wanting others to be kind to you, yet your inner speak is Trash? Do you want to Love yourself more but you allow relationships that are harmful To fostering self love? Are you constantly nailing Yourself to a Cross yet you somehow Believe someone Else is your Savior?

Virgo is Perfectionism, Criticism, the way our BodyMindSpirit has suffered for our Victimhood. It's also the energy of Self Sacrifice and Healing-Learn to Be in Service of yourself, and we do this through cultivating a Loving relationship with Spirit, with the Divine, with our Body-through Holistic self Care!!

I'm in the office doing massages all day & planning to record a podcast/write up tonight that will be available by tomorrow. I wanted to get it done earlier, but honestly, I spent the WKnd off social media In nature with my hubby, and it was Incredible! I'm Integrating Less Self Criticism and Perfectionism and that impacts my business and my ability to get posts out, but ultimately, my mental health & Joy is more important than jumping through hoops for these algorithms, which *is the whole point of this Virgo eclipse* -

Choosing what's Healthy for Ourselves πŸ”₯πŸ€ŒπŸŒΈβ›“οΈβ€πŸ’₯

I Love you all 😘

Healing can be Simple 🌸

In a world where coaches charge thousands of dollars to 'heal' you in a single setting, I want to remind you one of the Most Healing Rituals you can engage in is Absolutely FREE.

It's just BEing with Yourself. It's BEing Still. It's BEing Kind to your Needs & Desires. It's tending to You.

It's just making an awesome breakfast at home & enjoying it in your tiny space. It's Breathing in the Sunshine on a Saturday morning, taking a long walk, sitting in the grass with a book, connecting with nature, listening to 528 hertz frequency, it's the Attitude of Gratitude.

Learning to Be with yourself, learning to Be in Gratitude (especially in the chapters of struggle), learning to Listen to Yourself and Honor what you need Is the Most Beautiful & Healing thing you can do.

It's not Hard to do, you just have to Want to do it, and you have to Integrate it Consistently; and it's Not going to be Perfect in the beginning, but you Keep Refining the practice, until one day you wake up & realize you have a whole new Relationship with yourself & the narratives in your head.

This Virgo Full Moon Eclipse is very much about letting go of details/thought processes/practices that Don't serve BodyMindSpirit health. It's an acknowledgement that purification is a process. It's an Honoring of how far you've come.

In a world where everyone is trying to sell the next thing that "will for sure work" I ask you, can you Just Be With Yourself? Because that is what you Really crave, someone to Acknowledge & Attune to You; let that someone Be You.

This morning as the sun shone in my window I was So Excited to give myself a break from work and just Be, without the guilt around everything that needs to be done. So I focused on the Intention of Self Care today, whatever that looked like, which ended up just being a lot of time in nature, reading, and relaxing.

This book is Absolutely Blowing My Mind!!! Biochemistry, esoteric astrology, Bible scripts-it's a combination of spiritual, physiological, & Astrological knowledge about the 12 minerals being the basis for Truth health, and it's based on our astrology blueprint. I am Fascinated by this writing from 100Yrs ago!

Saw some Hellebore on my walk today, this flower is connected to MEDUSA/ALGOL!!! 😍🐍

And I finally reach 50 subscribers on Substack!!! Thank you to everyone who has followed/Subscribed, it means so much!!!

I will be working on the links for the upcoming 'Gate of Initiation - Descent into Feminine Power' workshop in the coming days. If you are in a threshold space, if you're ready to move forward through loss, betrayal, grief, if you Know 2026 requires a Higher more Evolved version of Self and you're ready to Connect with her, Please stay tuned because I would Love to have you in this workshop!!! 😍

Who's Crying?

Today was Amazing & I'm Still crying in my herbal tea tonight and TBH, I *Really* would like a drink, but I Promised myself I was getting through this eclipse season without alcohol (or being disrupted by my family). 🀞 I don't consider myself sober, bcz I will indulge here & there, but the last few times it's sent me into such mental tail spins in the days afterward that I just can't afford to navigate that, nor do I want to.

And All of this is So On Point for the upcoming Virgo full Moon Eclipse - understanding how Avoidance Impacts your MindBodySpirit Health.

We are Here as a country because of Avoidance, because of lack of Discernment, because of Lack of Boundaries, of Faith, of Accountability - & now we are having to Clean up. The damage done from looking the other way, from self medicating, from playing up the victim status & blaming others is Finally coming back Full Force-& there is No Running from it. These energies are Not getting easier in the coming months, so Rooting into Embodiment practices & finding spaces where you can Align with others invested in healing work is Vital.

I've spent decades cycling between Healing & Numbing, but these past several years of Astrology work have truly saved my Life. It gave me something to Want to be sober for-I have spent 5yrs teaching myself everything I can about the chart & somewhere along the way, the numbing tools I used to crave started feeling awkward, toxic, Disgusting.

I wanted to share my chart to show you the importance of the Asteroids - if I didn't have several plugged in, one might think this full moon eclipse in Virgo wasn't necessarily impacting my chart- but it is actually Directly impacting my Psyche, Dejanira, Joan of Arc, & Venus.

Psyche is the BodyMindSoul asteroid, who must journey into the shadows to find her Love. What stays with me about Psyches story is the reminder Not to let our family (sisters/feminine) get in our head & cause self sabotage of happiness. In Virgo, this looks like perfectionism & criticism through constant need for refinement/healing/service. So much of my wounding has been specifically around my sister wounds & trying to sacrifice myself to that relationship.

If you look opposite Psyche and this eclipse energy you'll see I have Dejanira, the Victim asteroid in Pisces. Pisces ruled by Neptune/Posiedon (s❌trauma), victim of collective consciousness, sacrificed to/By the groups; in the sign of the victim, who wants to self soothe/medicate/Avoid confrontation & the overwhelming feelings. Knowing these placements/myths is a constant reminder that to get out of victim mindset I Must be In Body, In Service & Be In Faith (Not listening to the whispers of those Meant to drag me off my path.)

Square this eclipse, where I can have more difficulty OR Manifest something new is Joan of Arc transiting Sagittarius - witch wounds, being burned at the stake for Speaking Truth, standing in Convictions around Faith. In the 8th H, this is Ancestral Inheritance & Rebirth Energy. And Psyche is sitting outside my Venus (Values) in the sign of information, mindset, what I trade my energy for. 🀌πŸ”₯

I have had Massive shifts to my identity (Jupiter is literally sitting over my Cancer Sun) lately, & there are BIG Feelings funneling through me-BUT I also Know, this Is an Emptying Out of the Body Sacrifices, the Spiritual sacrifices, the Victimhood that I Had to traverse to have the credibility to Hold my clients in this work.

This morning I had two clients-a Vet who is Loving massage, he is sleeping better, his psoriasis is clearing up, he is falling asleep on my Table! πŸ₯Ή A Veteran feeling safe enough to fall asleep on my table is Everything.

And then I worked with a woman navigating these difficult transitions and doing a Stellar job of it All. I was able to teach her how/why these themes are coming up due to the transits and she is also benefiting from my "Calm Down" tincture, which brings me So Much Joy!

I also received an Incredible message from a Human Design reading I delivered, my client Felt So Seen and Understood in her quirks and characteristics made So Much more Sense-& I Absolutely LOVE Seeing my clients come Alive in their understanding of Self.

I spent all morning doing Massage, took a Very long walk at Biltmore in the sun, picked up a new Astrology book about minerals & the zodiac, did errands, steamed, cried a Lotttttt in the shower, and now I'm snuggled up with tea & my books.

I'm taking my tinctures, letting the tears flow, & looking forward to the Sunshine this WKnd!!

I will be putting out another Substack video tomorrow about the air/earth trines & Hopefully more around this Virgo eclipse.

Where is this 12Β° Full moon hitting your chart? Drop it below for some insight! 😍πŸͺβœ¨

MARS SQUARES URANUS/ALGOL πŸ”₯⚑🐍

Mercury is back in the microwave, 2/26-3/20, in Pisces - Mindset/Data/Communication Fog; reflections on Victimhood, compassion, death, surrender & Faith.

Mars (Willpower, War, Assertiveness) is Squaring Uranus (lightning energy, Past Life Trauma Signatures, Rebellious Revolutionary), & Uranus is sitting over Algol, fixed "Demon Star" that is Medusa's 3rd Eye. Algol is a portal to Spirituality, but you have to look Past the Fearsome Snakes & Medusa's glare, otherwise you'll be turned to stoned by the Horrific atrocities of the world.

In my latest Substack, I Highlight that MERCURY is traveling with NESSUS (asteroid of s❌TRAUMA & Ancestral Wounding, also the point where we Break the Chains ⛓️‍πŸ’₯🧬). *In America's chart, these are Sitting at the Very Bottom (Darkest Part of chart) Over Ceres (Mother, Nourishment, Grief), Nessus, & the Inner Child!!! πŸ’“πŸ™

If you are a survivor, NOW is the Time to be doing the shadow work and Embodied Healing-we are Not getting away from these themes & issues, it's going to get Louder, it's been being Dredged up since last summer when All the dark goddesses were in Scorpio.

Understanding our astrological blueprint and daily transits is So Important for our physical & mental health. I looked at my chart this morning and I'm like... Yeah, stay off socials & stay away from people today. πŸ˜… But I can't bcz I'm off to chair massage.

In my personal chart, Mars is over my Vesta (which is Incredible energy when you can Channel your Anger into Assertiveness & Stop leaking energy to others, focusing on Self Purpose!), but square Uranus sitting over my Algol CONJUNCT CHIRON (yeah, WTF!).

*A Chiron/Algol conjunction feels like a cosmic slap in the face bcz it is a Constant test to either completely Lose my $hit & be Owned by the scarcity/lack/worth mindset OR Lean Into the Spiritual Capacity & Serve from my deepest wounds-which Are s❌trauma, feminine betrayal, ostracization, neglect, Trusting Abundance.

I'm a Cancer Sun, so Moon Ruled. *This Practice is Saving me. The moon progresses 13Β°ish degrees/day-we are Not Mentally Unstable, we are Emotionally Flowy. πŸ˜… The Moon is in Cancer, which is heightening the sensitivity and emotions, thoughts of the past-& it's sitting over my Kali (Cutting Away the Ego with the Sword of Truth!) βš”οΈ That energy is Opposite my Hekate in Capricorn, Death DOULA, meeting people in the In-Between spaces, responsible for providing light for birth, for death.

Jupiter is Over my Sun-my Whole IDENTITY is being REBIRTHED.

And Pele is sitting over Libra folks-we are Burning $hit DOWN in unbalanced relationships. You'll not be surprised at All to know This is Opposite Chiron/Eris/Child, where our inner most wounds from childhood are being Dredged up to point out the BS and Advocate for ourselves in Relationships that were Built on our Wounding!!! πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

***I wanted to include some screenshots of Sabian Symbol information, I Love looking up the meaning of the astrology degrees and have found them to be Relevant Every single time (Big Thank you to my Astrology bestie Astrology for Mindful Living πŸ™) -

The Sabian symbol for this Full Moon in Virgo eclipse is WILDDDDDD ... Especially given the energy of our country right now.

Anywho - Please go Check out my Latest Substack on the Grand Water Trine, it includes the Asteroid of KARMA!!! **There is a FREE Video!** I will be posting one on the air & earth Trine later, So Much around Healing s❌Trauma!!!

Stay safe out there folks. 😘🌸πŸͺπŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ

March Specials! πŸŒΈπŸ‹πŸ˜

I'm offering a FREE Lemon/Eucalyptus essential oil upgrade for those that schedule by 3/4!

Lemon/Eucalyptus is one of my Favorite blends to support both Detox of stagnation and Uplifting our Mood. The fresh, clean smell of lemons Always makes me So Happy and the grounding clarity of eucalyptus feels So Balancing.

The sun is currently in Pisces, and we're about to go into a Mercury Retrograde occurring in Pisces. We are going to be Immersed in feelings, reflections on Victimhood/death/faith/compassion/surrender - retrogrades are a "revisiting" and Mercury rules the mind, information, Communication. Pisces energy is a water element, so this is about emotional flow, but Pisces lacks structure & foundation, so it may feel like you're getting pummeled with waves with no footing-very disorienting! Pisces also Rules our Lymph system, where our body stores toxins. With the upcoming Full Moon Eclipse in Virgo, which represents the Health of the Body/Mind, this is an Opportune time to be focusing on self care, detoxing the body, and being Mindful of how information you consume Impacts your mental & Spiritual health!

I'm also going to extend my February special into March, as I only have a handful of appointments left, and I have Loved this one So much! My 'Sacred Renewal' treatment is a 75min session that focuses on alleviating tension in neck/shoulders/back using soothing hot stones. It also includes hot towels, a vanilla scalp rub, a coconut foot scrub, and an application of luxurious & hydrating Blackberry Magnolia lotion. These smells are Absolutely Divine, and combined with the hot stones, foot scrub, & scalp rub - let's just say I've had some clients drool! πŸ˜…

I'm a Trauma Informed LMT with 25yrs of experience, I'm taking new female clients in Biltmore Forest, and I offer 20% Discount to Veterans/LEO/1st Responders!

WORKSHOP ALERT!!!

I have So Many Incredible workshops I want to offer this year, and I've been holding back because *have you seen the world lately* but Honestly, this IS the Perfect Time to Dive into this knowledge & these Shadow work practices!

Astrology has been an Absolute Lifeline for me in my Healing & Self Advocacy journey and I Want you to Understand how Powerful you are, because we are ALL Needed for the transformations occurring.

When you understand your spiritual blueprint, when you are Supported by other Women on a similar path, when you are moving from a place of Grounded Intuition, Agency, & Values - you are UNF**KABLEWITH. πŸ”₯

I am getting the details/links down, but here is a little sneak peak!

πŸ”₯ Gate of Initiation - Descent into Feminine Power: in this 4 part series we will explore Grief as Initiation to Emotional Power. We will specifically be working with Persephone, Hekate, Isis, & Pluto in the chart, as well as the Grief/Hope/Cloelia asteroids. What we are Collectively experiencing right now IS a Portal into our Deepest Wounds & our Immense Power. You Choose whether or not to cross the threshold, but know that if you're unwilling to Descend, you are Also relinquishing All that you're capable of achieving.

🌊 Elemental Magic - Exploring Your Natal Chart Through Mother Nature's Lens: this is Absolutely Perfect for those just beginning their astrology journey Or those feeling Overwhelmed with All the info! When I first started, I couldn't understand how to keep it all straight, and This Perspective is what Finally made it ALL click. In this workshop we will explore the chart through the Elements, the Modes, & what Represents the signs. This is the Basic Foundation for understanding Everything else!

πŸ—£οΈ Embodied Frequencies - Sacred Bloom & Sacred Descent: Taurus/Scorpio, Death & Decay vs Blooming Abundance, WOMB/THROAT TRAUMA, Restoration of Agency, Sovereignty, Advocacy; Vocalization of Worth! In this two part series, we're Focusing on letting the dead things be fertilizer for your Greatest Expression. We will dive into All aspects of worth & shadow work and hone in on the Balance in the chart & Body, how one part is Always feeding the other. All women carry imprints of womb/throat trauma. If you struggle to Speak and Advocate for your needs, this workshop is going to offer you mindset shifts, Embodiment tools, & a new outlook on what it Means to Embody your Worth.

I'm a 1/3 in Human Design, so I teach from research & life experience. My Mercury is in Gemini, so I supply Tons of information & varying perspectives for You to Choose which information is right for You! My MC is Capricorn-grounded, logical, Rooted in Integrity.
