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). π€ 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 (sβtrauma), 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. π€π₯
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! π₯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.
