✨ New Moon in Leo — July 24th ✨

The New Moon in Leo is here, and it’s time to reignite your inner flame. 🔥

Leo season is here to remind us of our radiance, courage, and creative power. Ruled by the Sun, Leo invites you to step boldly into your light, not for applause, but because your soul came here to shine.

This new moon is near Venus and Mercury, adding beauty, love, and clarity to your intentions. 🌹💬 Expect heart-centered ideas and bold expressions to rise, especially around self-worth, visibility, and joy.

💫 Manifest with this moon by:
• Writing intentions that reflect your truest, brightest self
• Creating a vision board with bold colors + wild dreams
• Speaking affirmations in front of the mirror, with your hand on your heart 💗
• Doing something tomorrow that makes you feel magnetic + alive

This is an opportunity to begin something brave. Ask yourself:
Where am I ready to be seen? What does my heart truly want?

The seeds you plant now will grow through this moon cycle—so make them golden. 🌻

🧡 Be bold. Be you.

🧡🍊 Sacral Chakra Awakening 🍊🧡
Your portal to passion, creativity, pleasure, and authenticity.

Welcome to the realm of the Sacral Chakra, or Svadhisthana, the second energy center in the body. This chakra pulses just below the navel, glowing in shades of sunset orange—

This is where your soul’s creative fire lives. It’s your center for emotions, sensuality, pleasure, self-expression, and the essence of who you are when you’re not dimming your light to fit in.

🧡 Why Your Sacral Chakra Matters:

When this chakra is balanced, you feel alive, inspired, magnetic, and confident in your truth.
When blocked? You may feel creatively stuck, disconnected, numb, or insecure in expressing yourself.

🍊 Ways to Activate & Balance Your Sacral Chakra:

🌿 Herbs & Plants:
• 🍊 Orange peel – lifts the spirit, enhances sensual energy
• 🧉 Damiana – for passion and emotional release
• 🌺 Hibiscus – sensual, flowy, opens the heart and womb
• 🍯 Cinnamon or honey – warming, stimulating, sweetens the soul

Drink them as teas, infuse in honey, or use in ritual baths.

🔮 Crystals for Sacral Flow:
• 🧡 Carnelian: ignites creativity, confidence, and sexual energy
• 🍑 Sunstone: encourages joy and self-worth
• 🔥 Orange calcite: breaks creative blockages and fuels spontaneity

Carry them, meditate with them.

♌ Astrological Links:
• Ruled by Water signs: Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces (emotions, intuition, sensuality)
• Ruled by the Moon & Venus: think receptivity, feminine energy, desire, and connection
• Friday is a great day to work with this chakra (Venus’ day of love & beauty)

🧘‍♀️ Rituals & Activities:
• Dance freely—hips are sacred portals of the sacral
• Create art, write poetry, cook intuitively, garden—anything expressive
• Wear orange or surround yourself with it 🍊🧡🧡
• Take a sensual bath with hibiscus, rose petals, and a dash of cinnamon
• Chant “VAM” (sacral sound) during meditation
• Move your body like water—fluid, soft, untamed

✨ Affirmations to Speak Over Your Womb Space:

🧡 I honor my sacred sensuality
🧡 I am safe to feel and express my emotions
🧡 My creativity flows effortlessly
🧡 I am connected to the pleasure and joy of being fully me

🌀 Your sacral chakra is your creative space, It’s the wellspring of your desires, your dreams, your wild, radiant soul. When you nourish it, you stop asking permission to be yourself—you just are.

So today, light an orange candle 🕯️, sip some sweet herbal tea, move your hips to music, and remember:
You are allowed to take up space with your joy, your art, your voice, and your truth.

Take time to connect 💜

07/18/2025

My grandma used to tell me, ‘The Earth knows what we need. If we’re still enough, she’ll guide us to it.’ There’s something so beautiful about connecting with the Earth—about slowing down, listening, and letting her wisdom lead the way. 💖🧚‍♂️✨

🌸✨ Friday Magic & Venus Energy ✨🌸

Soft winds, warm hearts—today is Friday, sacred to Venus, the force of beauty, connection, charm, and all things radiant and sweet. It’s a day for leaning into tenderness, for honoring the power of the feminine, and for tending to the self with devotion.

In the kitchen, magic stirs quietly—infused into teas, oils, and self-care practices that bring us closer to the divine within.

💗 Herbs & Ingredients for Venus-Aligned Rituals:

• 🌹 Rose: Opens the heart, softens energy, and helps us receive love with grace.

• 💜 Lavender: Soothes the spirit and brings a gentle glow to the soul.

• 🍯 Honey: Sweetens words, softens edges, and attracts sweetness in every form.

• 🌕 Moon Water: Infused with lunar power, it heightens intuition and carries deep feminine resonance.

✨ Ritual for Venus-Aligned Self-Tending:
Brew a soft, floral tea—rose petals, lavender buds, a drizzle of honey. Sip slowly. Speak kindly to yourself as you drink. Light a pink candle. Gently anoint your pulse points with rose oil or lavender water. Let your reflection be a moment of reverence, not judgment.

🧂 In the world of hearth and herbs, even the smallest acts are sacred. Stir clockwise with a whispered wish. Infuse your meals with intentions of softness and joy. Dress yourself like you’re wrapping a prayer in silk.

Let today be a celebration of your glow—of magnetism, of tenderness, of sacred presence.
Happy Friday 💋🌿
