Itβs been almost a year and a half since I entered my Venus Return and truthfully, it felt nice to burrow in the coziness of my own underworld. Comfortable. Safe.
There is so much I wanted to share. The intricacies of navigating the underworld of your existence and doing everything possible to not come out the other side in your negative expression. The ah-ha moments. The things that helped. And the things that only numbed. The uncertainty. The fog. The inability to see beyond the three steps ahead.
Yet my fingers wouldnβt move until my body said it was okay to pass go. Here I am almost a year later writing to you. But know itβs not the first time Iβve thought about you. In fact, youβve been on my mind quite a lot.
Mostly, in deep gratitude.
Many of you have been with me all the way back in the days when my kids were small. Back then I taught how to feed babies and picky eaters as a Holistic Nutritionist.
Iβve met many more as Iβve turned inwards and learned the landscape of my inner world. From learning to journey, to channel, and how to read the Akashic Records, this was a period of wild inner blooming and coming home to myself. Thank you to those who stood by as I made the transition from natural nutrition to offering Akashic Record readings using the Soul Realignment method. Itβs quite a stretch!
And then came the personal development phase that would change my life and have me pivot ... again.
Learning how to host sacred circles.
Learning how to guide others in the liminal space through energy coaching.
Learning how to hold space for others.
While I feel like I belong to myself again, I had to let go of many identities and βshouldsβ. Leading yet again to a new phase.
To let my creativity flow, I knew two things had to happen:
I have since closed down my website and offerings.
I began working full-time for an amazing self-publishing company helping authors publish and market their books.
Not having my creativity tied to earning an income allows me so much freedom to explore where it might lead.
This newsletter comes to you via my Substack. A platform I feel matches the softness with which I desire to let my exploration of the world bloom. A space where I desire to begin sharing more about the intimacy of our inner world and thoughts at a pace that is undefined β¦ yet I know it has its own rhythm.
Dear one, should you stay once again subscribed for this unknown journey, there are a few tidbits I can share about what you can expect to hear more about as I take space in your inbox:
β§ I love reading. It became clear itβs the one constant I cannot go without. Getting lost in other worlds either in books or in the stories in my mind have always been soothing. I'll share an odd mix of romance, fantasy and romantasy genres mixed with self-help, spirituality, poetry, and personal development books.
β§ I'm especially interested in tracking how the divine feminine and divine masculine work their way back in balance in the current human experience. What better way to study this dynamic than by reading the collective love stories of our times and feel firsthand the undercurrent of our collective.
β§ Iβm currently writing a non-fiction memoir about my Venus Return experience and walking the myth of Inanna's descent and rising. We all need to be more comfortable navigating our inner winter, our darkness. We need to know that fall apart and piecing ourselves back together is a normal process of how our consciousness evolves.
β§ There is a story about the natural rhythm of darkness and light based on the procession of the equinoxes that is swirling in my consciousness. Itβs shaping up to be a dark-fantasy story. My writing journey in this way is very new and I am giddy with excitement to let it unfold.
If you love astrology, herbalism, seasonal living, journeying to the liminal space, all things cozy ... + trying to figure out to how to navigate this world while leaving it in a better place ... me too. Let's stay friends. If not, I promise there will be no hard feeling should you ever decide to click that unsubscribe button.
Should you desire to stay, the newsletter shall remain free to read.
If you ever desire to support me further, you can become a paid subscriber and receive access to the four seasonal retreats I have previously created. I donβt have plans to update them this year, but I still follow the same process each season and I know they will serve you well.
With deep gratitude π.
Until next time β¦ stay rooted and be true to your rhythm.
