A reading for the Collective:
✨ Rite of Passage ✨
You have courage in the face of (dis)couragement. You are brave. You may think that the tiny little things you do to love others go unnoticed, and maybe they do, by the world et al. But just because you haven't posted your most recent act of kindness or accomplishment on social media, doesn't mean that it didn't happen, or doesn't matter.
And sometimes courage looks different than you may think. Courage to walk away from a toxic conversation, job, or partner. Courage to defend those who don't have a voice. Courage to stand up for yourself, even if there are negative consequences. Courage to love wildly and authentically, Courage to accomplish the dreams that others discourage you from. Your courage is like the spark that can start a forest fire. Your bravery and courage are never wasted. The choices you make empower yourself and others in ways you may never know. People watch you even when you don't realize it.
When you have courage in life, the universe always responds. When you are brave enough to take big risks from a heart-centered space, you reap the harvest.
Courage, dear heart.
Some days, the courage it takes to get out of bed, or take a shower, or leave the house, is the same courage it takes to run into a burning house.
Every crumb of courage you put out is a small victory.
As small as these tiny acts may seem, celebrate them. Cheer yourself on for doing things to love and care for yourself, even when you don't have the will. The more you get into the habit of healthy acts the easier it is to love yourself and attract loving, healthy relationships.
✨My girl, your time will come ✨
It's your turn.
Everything that has happened so far has led you to this point. It may seem like your suffering was in vain, but every turn, every fork in the road, every obstacle, every trauma, has led you here.
To this time. To this place.
,
There is no mistake, no mistake, no mistake.
Nothing written in the stars is not for your own sake.
There are no mistakes.
There are no tears in the constellations.
There are no punctures in the veins of life.
You are a star. And you will shine.
Please believe. Please be patient.
And while this patch of time is rough like rocks and gravel that crushes tires, it is yet a path to something great.
You cannot achieve everything in one season.
Even earthly things need time, as much as time has no bearing on you anymore. It does have bearing on others.
You will be relieved, you will be quenched.
I can hear the thunder: And soon the rain that falls from the eaves will be the tears that smother these forest fires.
There are people set aside in your life like boulders, like ancient Greek columns to hold you up.
There are things on this journey that you could only dream.
You may feel stuck. You may think nothing will ever change. You might feel hopeless. But these walls are thin as shell, ready to break when you so much as lift a finger.
My girl, your day will come.
