Sometimes, chaos is easier than facing oneself. It keeps themselves and others distracted from the truths they are afraid to confront.
The universe will keep reflecting what they refuse to heal, until they find the courage to sit with the truth within.
The greatest battle isn’t with the world around them, but with what they carry.

As you raise your vibration and work on you, recognition of the pattern becomes very strong.
What served as a way of being seen, heard, accepted, feeling loved, having a purpose, feeding into yours or others chaos now has no role to play.
Chaos, drama and gossip automatically feels misaligned and foreign.
Many choose to energetically sieve through what/who they need to be around.
This is done with purpose, not just random cutting of the cord. It is embodiment of the work and the lessons within.
Going to the root of this behaviour first.
The why.......

Freedom is.....

A bare tree.
No leaf.
Rooted.

The winds of life and change testing her strength. To hold on and to let go.
The paradox of it all.

Bare and ready for new growth.
This season draws her inside.
The darkness providing so much insight.

No leaf to take care of.
Just she.
Standing tall.

Bare.
Brave.
Open.

I wrote and shared this 2 years ago and these past few months , particularly with this full moon, freedom, has been the most prominent word to describe what has been coming to the surface.
The image is strong, dark and weathered yet graceful, present and free. I wish you all freedom on this journey🙌

The Full Moon in Ta**us is energetically asking us one big, uncomfortable question:

“Are you building a life that genuinely feels good to live in, or are you holding on to what feels familiar because you're afraid of what happens if you let it go?

🌕You are allowed to outgrow what once felt safe.
🌕You are allowed to want more without being ungrateful for what you have.
🌕You are allowed to receive without earning every ounce of it through exhaustion.

Be proud of who you are.
A woman who feels deeply within and experiences life differently.

We move through seasons of blooming, breaking, healing, resting and becoming. Your sensitivity is not a weakness.
Your differences are not flaws.
Your need for peace is not something to apologise for.

You were never meant to fit into every space. The goal is to find where you belong!!! You are allowed to honour your own rhythm, protect your energy, embrace your uniqueness and walk your path with faith.

🙌May you learn to see your sensitivity not as a burden to hide, but as a part of yourself to understand, nurture and embrace.🙌

Sometimes, the soul needs a winter, even before the physical season itself.
It's a season in life of stillness, surrender and letting go.
A time to turn inward, shed what no longer serves us and reconnect with the deepest parts of ourselves.
The winter within should not be avoided.
The spring will show its divine purpose.

I’ve learned that not everything I desire is meant to happen right now. Some seasons are not meant for blooming, but for grounding, healing and becoming.
I cannot force what needs time.
Roots are growing, even when nothing shows.

“The arrow that goes the furthest gets pulled back the most.” 🏹

Sometimes the biggest setbacks come right before the biggest breakthrough.
The further you are meant to go, the more life may test your strength, patience and resilience.

Being pulled back doesn’t mean you’re losing. Sometimes, it’s preparation for the distance you’re about to cover.
And in this I trust🙌

🍂Oh Autumn, how I feel you🍂
Your winds of change rightly coaxing me to let go of it all, that which no longer serves me.

I long to remain in the comfort of my own cover of leaves, the leaves of old behaviours and patterns , but I see their reds, oranges, and yellows as a forewarning of their coming end.

This journey has removed so many layers, and you, dear Autumn, have played your part and now again invite me to release the leaves to dance among your winds.

I absorb the lessons , the nourishment of which my future growth depends on, and draw it deep to my very root. I feel it as we tip toe closer to the balance, the equinox . For now, I am like a child standing in the middle of a see-saw trying to steady myself between darkness and light, masculine and feminine.

I will offer you my leaves soon.
I will be bare and use everything I have within me to live and awaken.

🍂Oh Autumn, how I feel you🍂
