good things are coming to you. ♡

There’s a reason a sewing kit includes scissors, a wood shop has a saw, and a kitchen is full of knives. In order to build something, to create something on purpose, you have to be prepared to cut away what’s extra. A bolt of cloth does not a blanket make, a piece of wood a shelf, nor a loaf of bread a sandwich. When you snip off frayed bits of string, cut the wood into shape, or slice the end off a loaf of bread you are creating, with the act of removal, something closer to what you desire. 

Now let’s say you’re not sewing a blanket, you’re not building a shelf, not making a sandwich. Let’s say you’re crafting a life in which you are happy. You will end up removing things. You’ll leave partners, stop talking to family members, let go of friends. You’ll move apartments, lose jobs, change wardrobes. And you will feel their absence. You’ll look at the scraps of cloth, the odd angles of wood, the stale end of the loaf. But that cloth couldn’t keep you warm and that tiny corner of wood can’t store books. You wouldn’t be full from that little bit of bread or happy with that person. In the art of creating there is the act of removal and it is essential.

The real glo up is when you stop waiting to turn into some perfect hypothetical version of yourself and consciously enjoy being who you are in the present moment.

We don’t have to become what we think we should be just to enjoy our lives. You can aim for being that version of yourself that you want to be as a stretch goal, but don’t limit yourself along the way, and don’t worry if you reach it or not. What matters is that we enjoy the journey <3

drink tea you’ve never tried, reread your favorite book, get up to watch the sunrise, write a letter, listen to the birds, knit a bad sweater, bake an ugly cake, sing at the top of your lungs, jump crazily to some music. feel, really feel life without any restrictions, no matter the size. 

How do people get to own secondhand bookshops. Not the big/newer quirky ones, but the little dusty ones that are piled high with books and always staffed by that same old guy who’s reading behind the desk. How do these businesses even begin, how do they survive, they feel like they were passed down by immortals and staffed by retired druids or something

Moon persona chart 🌛

Okay let’s dive right into it. Let’s get to understand what the moon is about here, now the moon represents our deep unconscious state of mind, our feminine energy that’s repressed inside of us. it’s how we are when we are truly comfortable around others like our friends & family or when you’re getting comfortable around someone you’ve met for a while. It also rules the emotional state and how we react and perceive the world / how we are perceived by the world as well when we’re just being ourselves. Now by combining your solar chart with your moon persona chart you can make references about your personality. Let’s say you have a Capricorn asc in your solar chart but then you have a Leo asc in your moon persona chart then that would make you still have those earthy characteristics of the Capricorn being down to earth, serious demeanor, quiet but then when you look at your Leo moon persona asc you’ve combined the two and now you’re a firey earth person with a tinge of creativity, outspokenness, great fashion senses and so forth. You can also do this for your other persona charts and don’t forget what the theme is about for each of them for example Venus persona chart is about love and how you express your love and how you are seen in love and etc.

Sun in moon persona chart: how we go about and interact with one another what qualities make us different or familiar in sense of interacting and engaging with others our ego complex.

Asc in moon persona chart: how we express ourselves naturally without thinking about it. How people perceive us to be/what we show to them when we are being vulnerable or withdrawn.

Moon in moon persona chart: our deep unconscious state. What we feel on a very intimate level of being alone or with others. How we tend to show our true colors, or ourselves being more relaxed or comfortable with the person we’re with.

Mars in moon persona chart: what makes us tick and how we vent with our anger. How we release that built up stress and anxiety.

Mercury in moon persona chart: how we express how we are feeling. How we communicate or talk to one another about stuff on an emotional level.

Venus In moon persona chart: how we show the people we love them. How we treat them and feel about them on an intimate level.

Saturn In moon persona chart: how we mature in these relationships, what makes us wiser and how we learn from experience and how to change from it.

Jupiter in moon persona chart: how free we feel in the relationship, what makes it sky rocket into existence. That happy ever after type of relationship and expanding such as how we make the decision about starting families with that person.

Neptune In moon persona chart: how we idealize our relationships with people. How it makes us connect to one another on a physical like sense. What we tend to see pass the person such as flaws and imperfections such as imperfections we may have ourselves.

Uranus In moon persona chart: how spontaneous we are with our emotions, what we tend to show without realization. What can take people a step back and get confused about us when we are being this way.

Pluto In moon persona chart: how we grow from this relationship. What transforms us into better human beings. what part of us tends to die in the process when we are bettering ourselves, what people tend to see when we are growing through that emotional transition.

Opening a tarot booster pack i got 4 common Towers and one holographic Death

one day you're going to have to live for youself, so why not now? just say fuck it and do what makes you happy.

reminder that this blog, while not politically focused, supports BLM. bootlickers and racists aren’t welcome here, and never will be.

The self-care posts that tell you to take a bath and eat chocolate and read a book are good but do what needs to be done first. Eating chocolate when you haven’t showered in four days and you can’t remember when the last time you changed your underwear was won’t make you feel better. It will probably make you feel worse. Clean yourself up; clean your surroundings up. Then take care of the little things. Tackle life one thing at a time.
