Here's a special shout out to Matt Olsen, Owner of Brew North Roasters for creating such an amazing; organically sourced, ethnically traded, consistently roasted, smooth, and refreshing coffee for Erstwhile! Brew North Roasters is located locally in Sheldon, IA! We're consistently told how good the actual coffee/espresso/cold brew is before we even add any additional flavors. Matt's coffee is just that good. Definitely check out all that he has to offer at https://brewnorthroasters.com/ and be sure to tell him, Amber from Erstwhile sent you. 🖤🌙

It’s like coming home. The feeling I get when circle is setup and I’m sitting in the silence, waiting. Knowing that when women come together, beautiful and amazing things happen. The Wild Women Project of Siouxland is everything my heart needs each month. It grounds me and reminds me what we’re fighting for. This space is sacred because of each divine human spirit that shows up and takes up space is also sacred. In the words of my mother, “the place remembers the moment”, it remembers our stories long after we’re gone. This place embodies love and healing because you all do. I didn’t create Erstwhile, I rented a space and gave it a name. You created Erstwhile. You molded it into what it’s become. It’s still standing because it’s still needed. I’m just the caretaker of the space that you created and I love you dearly for trusting me with it. So here’s to the wild women who decided to attend today’s circle. Thank you for taking up space and reminding me what we’re fighting for. 🖤🌙

✨A Solar eclipse, New Moon in Aquarius on the same day of the Lunar New Year marking the year of the horse.
The last Fire Horse year was 1966, a time that had intense global upheaval, cultural revolution in China, escalation of the Vietnam War, and significant social changes, including the rise of the women's liberation movement and the Black Panther Party.
Bringing the double fire element we could see literal fires, chaos, rebellion and we all know it's been heading in that direction.

With this Solar eclipse New moon you may feel a sudden shift in directions you normally wouldn't take. Your communication and how you connect with others could be different.
We are always constantly changing but this really is a huge year for big unexpected changes that will shock you for the moment. Allow yourself to process changes and clear your mind quietly because Aquarius is an air sign and you can get overwhelmed more easily. The fast pace of the fire energy may also have you feeling burned out more quickly. ♒

Quick reminders put more self care into your routine this year because without it, you will feel stagnant and exhausted. Journal, meditate, yoga, read a book, exercise, walk, ground yourself with nature and make sure you are taking at least 10-15 min a day for yourself!!

Heres to the official Lunar New Year. 🐎

3,6,9

Nikola Tesla’s demonstrated unparalleled genius as a physicist and is widely regarded as one of the greatest minds in history. His unusual theories about the laws of our universe culminated in countless mysterious experiments and the Nikola Tesla 3,6,9 phenomenon.

This theory suggests that the numbers 3, 6, and 9 are not just ordinary digits, but hold a profound significance woven into the very fabric of the universe.

The 3,6,9 theory, can be observed throughout nature and the cosmos. From the arrangement of planets in our solar system to the geometry of the human body. The significance of 3, 6, and 9 extends beyond the physical world, reaching into the realms of higher consciousness!

3,6,9 theory could allow individuals to tap into the hidden power and energy of the universe, achieving greater awareness and even influencing the course of their own lives through manifestation techniques.
Tesla saw a mystical significance in the way certain numbers, especially 3, 6, and 9, recur in mathematical patterns, hinting at a deeper order underlying all of creation.
I created 3 art pieces with significant ritual involving of course the solfeggio tones of
3- 528 hz
6-852 hz
9- 964 hz
Purchase singularly or all together.
