Some new moon affirmations. This #AriesNewMoon I declared all of which I am so I could pursue those things with all that I have. Above all else, I am Healer, Bruja, and Psychologist.
It’s almost been a year and I can feel the days getting longer. I can feel the uncertainty again, the bottomless feeling of feeling nothing and everything at the same time and dissociation for everything that’s reality. We’re all feeling something a little different right now. It’s okay to mourn a life you wanted to live, but couldn’t. Or didn’t.
This might not sit well with people, but I believe in redemption. Mostly because I’ve made mistakes myself. I’m grateful to everyone who has ever held me accountable for my shit, because YES, I am not perfect and am capable of causing harm, like everyone else. What’s important is that we atone for, own up to, take accountability for, learn from these instances in which we are the perpetrator of harm.
I’ve never liked anyone long enough to see them glisten in the sun the way you do.
Don’t wait for anyone’s permission to live your truth. You give yourself permission and that is enough. 🤍
I feel like I forgot I’m a badass bitch. And I’m just waking up now. ✊🏼 I let a lot of people and recent experiences keep me down, but my MC, Mercury, Mars & Sun (& Pluto) are in the sign of Scorpio in the 9th House. I guess destroying, transforming and coming back to life are all kind of my thing?
