12th HOUSE TRANSITS🌊ARIESπŸ”₯REBIRTH⛓️‍πŸ’₯FEMININE LENS♀️

Hi everyone!!! I recorded this before the Excitement of a recent post going viral, and I'm Grateful So Many more women have found me!!

I wanted to get this into a Substack, but honestly, I'm Not supposed to be working on a beautiful Saturday morning and I've already done two hrs of work.

*My Boss is Implementing Strict Boundaries for Gorgeous Spring days, she wants me outside Frolicking in Venus transiting Ta**us energy. 🌸
*I Am the Boss. πŸ˜…

So, give this a listen & Please leave some questions! I Love curiosity and helping you understand the chart better!

For newbies, I'm a Trauma Informed LMT of 26Yrs! I opened my business Intentional Holistic Healing in March of 2020, yes the same week a global pandemic shut the world down!

I bring together therapeutic body work, herbal Nourishment for Nervous system restoration, And Divine Feminine/Dark Goddess Astrology that focuses on investigating the chart from a Feminine lens, specifically looking at our Karmic contracts, tendency for Repression, Alchemy it Ancestral Wounding, Embodied Healing Rituals, and Empowered Self Advocacy!!

If you've found me-you are Ready to Break Free of the chains of the Past and Reclaim your Agency & Voice. πŸ—£οΈπŸ”ˆ And with ALL the Aries energy happening - the Time Is NOW! πŸ”₯β™ˆ

Final Hours...

Tomorrow Mars will ingress from the 29th degree of Pisces (the Last Degree of the zodiac) into its sign of Rulership, the Fiery Fierce Aries.

Many people see Mars as anger/aggression, but I see Mars as our Assertiveness & Willpower. Pisces waters it down, but in Aries, it's going to be the Spark of Fire for Revolution.

Cloelia is not far behind, entering the Karmic ending degrees as the end of the zodiac, she represents Unlocking ourselves from the Cage of Imprisonment. Cloelia symbolizes where we must First uncage ourselves to show Others it is possible. As she moves from the empathic (but avoidant, addictive, & unstable sign of Pisces, who is prone to victim mindset) she will enter the sign of the Sovereign Warrior, which is her birthright. Cloelia was taken hostage during a Roman war and regarded so highly she was released from imprisonment for her bravery, leading to liberation of Others. Her proximity to Mars (Get $hit Done) in the Head butting Sign of the Ancestral Warrior-this is Incredible energy!!

Following her is Pallas Athene-the strategic warrior of Wisdom, and Medea, another representation of the Wisdom gained from spiritual loss & evolution.

Mercury, the messenger of the Gods who delivers info between worlds will also soon be in Aries. Mercury governs our mindset, communication, & how we make use of what we're given.

Medusa, Vesta, Nessus & the North Node are All in Pisces - Energy of where we've been Victimized and how we have a Choice in either committing to our Own Sacred path born from pain, one which is in Service to Divine Truth & Empathy; Or we continue to fall victim to the masks, the chains, the avoidance of our ancestors.

But whatever choice you make, there Will be consequences in Aries energy. Saturn, Lord of Karma & Boundaries, is already there with Neptune (delusions or Healing).

To Unlock your Karmic gifts, you Must do the work of accountability and Boundaries, otherwise the Time Lord will Keep you stagnant, burning & Angry.

The Amount of Healing Opportunities available to us right now & in the coming weeks are Absolutely Mind Blowing!!!

Stay Tuned for more details on the Aries ENERGY that is Building up to this New Moon Aries 28Β°, which is hitting my Karma & LILITH.βš”οΈπŸ”₯πŸ€Œβš”οΈπŸ”₯πŸ€Œβš”οΈπŸ€ŒπŸ”₯πŸ€Œβš”οΈπŸ”₯

Non-negotiables in Self-Care Rituals πŸ”₯πŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈπŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸŒŒπŸ“

Do you Value yourself? Do your relationships reflect that? Do your daily habits express that? Do your Internal narratives reflect your ability to include Yourself in the Mothering you extend to others?

Some of my non-negotiables for my own sanity include daily grounding outside with my feet in the grass, time in nature, taking my own tinctures, meditation, Movement (I try to alternate three days of gym/lifting weights with walking the other days), eating Fresh Produce over processed junk, Water & electrolytes, vibration plate/steam tent for lymph; shadow work around inner narratives and retraining my brain with new perspectives, Lots of reading/podcasts, Astrology Every Single Day (I Know what transits are making big impacts to my chart and when I'm feeling funky I Immediately go to my chart & can Realize Why and HOW to work With that energy).

I'm carving out Much more time to just Breathe before I pour into this world, I'm collecting my Energy (Vesta), I'm creating the Life I want by Consistently choosing more Wisely. All of the things I teach and offer clients are part of my Own Protocol for life.

It has taken me Manyyyyyy Years to Understand my Worth. πŸ’“ Part of that journey has been investing time in learning my natal chart. Venus represents our Values, Ta**us represents Embodied Self Worth. I am a Ta**us Rising with a Libra Stellium 6th H (this energy of people pleasing, fairness, balance is infused with the Perfectionism & self sacrifice of Virgo). And, being in the 6th house of Health, I Have to have a Balanced approach to wellness as part of my daily rituals, to Keep myself healthy.

I grew up with women constantly side eyeing me & expressing their jealousy So much that I held myself back from my Own Potential for So Many Years because I Wanted them to Love & Accept me. I took Absolute Crumbs from people who reinforced the sh*tty narratives I had about my Worth. *Understanding my Ceres placement also helped teach me how to more effectively operate in relation to others.

My recent beach trip was a Gift to myself for 6Yrs of Grinding Away in my business - and I Knew the Libra moon was Unlocking my Fate points (& I Know this upcoming Aries New Moon with 7planets + asteroids are Hitting my KARMA placements in Last Degrees of 12th H!) I Knew I needed time to Integrate Everything that I have been working through.

When energy is transiting our 12th H, it can feel like a pressure cooker, like being Locked away in the darkness of your own subconscious-it is the dark, squeezing birth canal before Rebirthing Yourself.

While transits can feel Excruciating, You CanNot Run From This Energy-so if you are Serious about your Healing/Recovery journey, Learning to work With it, learning to work With your Body, learning to Understand the narratives that present when triggered so you can Mother yourself through it without becoming completing Unhinged is Necessary.

Last night during my Hekate portion of the Gates of Initiation: Descent into Feminine Power I was Reminded of Whyyy I Do this Work. πŸ₯Ή We NEED More Women putting themselves & their Magic into this world, and it takes being Rooted in your Values (your WHY), Knowing you Deserve to Take Space, Understanding how Your Story Alone could change someone's trajectory in Life. It Also takes a commitment to these Embodiment Rituals, a Willingness to Slow Down & Integrate the information you're learning, & Support from Women walking a similar path.

You Have to Witness Other Women Doing it-&, you Have to Be Witnessed in this journey forward.

And my workshops are Intimate spaces to connect with other women navigating similar wounding, Deconditioning & Finding Themselves, Collecting the Relevant pieces and Re-Membering their Magic.

This is the Year to put your Time & Energy into YOU.

I am trying different approaches with my workshops this year - different days/times, different lengths, different content, different pricing. Hearing Your Feedback about what Works is So Helpful for me.

For those that are new to astrology, have yet to harness the house/sign/elements/modes energies, my upcoming Elemental Magick: Exploring Your Natal Chart Through Mother Natures Lens is Perfect for creating a stable foundation which will serve you going forward. You Have to Have These basics before you will be able to Understand Anything else. And, I'm offering a 45% DISCOUNT, so there are No Excuses! 😘

April is Se❌ual Assault Awareness Monthβ™€οΈπŸ«‚πŸͺ·β›“️‍πŸ’₯

As a little girl, I Never thought I would be working with Survivors. I just remember Hoping that some day my own experiences would make a difference in the lives of others. And 6yrs Deep into Intentional Holistic Healing I Know that sharing my own story & holding space for other women on my table & in my workshops has been the Most Empowering part of my life.

And also-I wouldn't be here doing this if it weren't for the Immense Shame, Embarrassment, & Sacred Rage that I Rightfully carry over my experienceS & of those I Love.

I am 43 and I can count on One hand the Women I know who Haven't been Victimized. I can't even count the women who feel as if they've gotten Justice-because Many of us Never came forward, for fear of not being believed, for fear of retaliation, for utter Shame at something None of us Deserved. Too Many have experienced this trauma within the walls of their Own Family, who has chosen to Look away and leave the Truth teller feeling as if they're in the wrong-I have heard this So Many times. It is Not Normal but it is common.

My definition of Justice over the years has changed and in my own way, I Do feel as if I've gotten Justice-because he laughed in my face and said I'd Never tell anyone, because the others hadn't either; but I'm making a business out of this pain, Recruiting an Army of Women Not Afraid to Speak.
He Will Never Escape My Voice.

"I'll follow you down til the sound of my Voice will Haunt you."

I have my Agency, I have my Voice, & I get to Encourage other women to come back to their body, come back to their own Voice, to Stand in the Light. And the more of Us that come together, the more we Shine a Light on those that have harmed us.

The more Women that choose Holistic Embodiment rituals over Mind altering & body numbing pills, the more women that choose self-love over self-destruction, the more women who Refuse to buckle under the BS Conditioning that We have something to be Ashamed of-the More we can Impress upon the Women coming up in the ranks Their Worth, and that Their Voice (rooted in Integrity) is the Most Powerful Asset they Carry.

I am Grateful for my Life because I know we Lose Too many people to what Looks like addiction/$uicide, when it's really s❌Trauma-so I will Never Stop telling my story or stop Standing up for other Survivors.

To Every woman who has vulnerably and courageously trusted me with their body & their story, I Thank you. I See You. I Believe in You. βš”οΈπŸ”₯

Full Moon Libra 12Β° βš–οΈπŸŒ…πŸŒ•

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 πŸŽ‡ 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. βœ¨πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸŒŠπŸ˜˜

β€œIt 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 β€˜moment in time’ of many women gone before, and you will lay pathways, like they did, for those who come up next. β€œ

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? πŸ˜…πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’« 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?
πŸ€ŒπŸšπŸŒŠπŸ“–

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. βœ¨πŸ™Œ

Sun 🌞 Saturn πŸͺ Persephone πŸ’€πŸŒΈ

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. πŸ₯Ή

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!!! πŸ™ŒπŸ’“πŸ€ŒπŸŒŒβœ¨
