Joni Mitchell – Monogamy

wise words.

“I don’t know if I’ve learned anything yet! I did learn how to have a happy home, but I consider myself fortunate in that regard because I could’ve rolled right by it. Everybody has a superficial side and a deep side, but this culture doesn’t place much value on depth — we don’t have shamans or soothsayers, and depth isn’t encouraged or understood. Surrounded by this shallow, glossy society we develop a shallow side, too, and we become attracted to fluff. That’s reflected in the fact that this culture sets up an addiction to romance based on insecurity — the uncertainty of whether or not you’re truly united with the object of your obsession is the rush people get hooked on. I’ve seen this pattern so much in myself and my friends and some people never get off that line.

“But along with developing my superficial side, I always nurtured a deeper longing, so even when I was falling into the trap of that other kind of love, I was hip to what I was doing. I recently read an article in Esquire magazine called ‘The End of Sex,’ that said something that struck me as very true. It said: “If you want endless repetition, see a lot of different people. If you want infinite variety, stay with one.” What happens when you date is you run all your best moves and tell all your best stories — and in a way, that routine is a method for falling in love with yourself over and over.

“You can’t do that with a longtime mate because he knows all that old material. With a long relationship, things die then are rekindled, and that shared process of rebirth deepens the love. It’s hard work, though, and a lot of people run at the first sign of trouble. You’re with this person, and suddenly you look like an asshole to them or they look like an asshole to you — it’s unpleasant, but if you can get through it you get closer and you learn a way of loving that’s different from the neurotic love enshrined in movies. It’s warmer and has more padding to it.”

7/7 portal July 2 nd Saturn & Neptune retrograde

THE ALCHEMICAL SATURN AND NEPTUNE RETROGRADE DANCE BEGINS ✨ RELEASING OLD STRUCTURES, BUILDING NEW REALITIES ✨ JULY 2, 2024

Dear friends, the presence of the new energies of July is already being felt in the air. New starts, new journeys, and a new inner Self are beginning to blossom under this deeply spiritual month.

Today Tuesday July 2, a day before the initial waves of the 7:7 portal begin to arrive, the planet Neptune moves into its retrograde period until December 7. Yes, we have two strong energetic planetary influences, Saturn since June 29 joined by Neptune today, pushing us to revisit our past life lessons and dissolve archaic energetic structures that are no longer needed for our journey.

Neptune, also known as the “great dissolver”, is setting its retrograde period this year in the water sign of Pisces. This Saturn-Neptune energetic synergy will be guiding us to make peace with our past, accept the situations and decisions we once made, and release those rigid patterns of behaviors so we can move forward into more fluid and heart-based timelines.

The second half of 2024 we just started will be filled with amazing energetic opportunities that will support the process of leaving behind old 3D ways of being to make room for new, more joyful, and liberating 5D ways of loving. Neptune retrograde will bring into our awareness the hidden realities of our past and present, so we can face these emotional issues once and for all and make peace with our illusions and our reality. We can no longer hide from evolving and growing up, spiritually speaking.

As our personal frequency increases, there is less room to keep issues hidden under the rug. All things must come into Light. With planet Neptune, our cosmic wake up call has now arrived. It is okay to have dreams and big expectations, but it is important to maintain our footing in reality before diving into the ocean. As retrograde Neptune and Saturn keep working together beyond the scenes in the coming months, shifts in perceptions, self-identity, and life objectives will be normal during the next half of the year. Please be kind and patient with your self, and those around you who are also moving through this process of dissolution of the old.

If you are having a hard time letting go of limiting patterns, restrictive thoughts, and past emotional pains, you may benefit from working with the “Energetic Cord Cutting” transmission in the perennial section of the 3D to 5D Activations Library. This activation will help you dissolve any past and present energetic attachments that are preventing you from healing and moving forward:

PERENNIAL ACTIVATIONS

The energy of planet Neptune also resonates with the power of creativity, intuition, and spirituality. Therefore these next few months you may find yourself finding new ways to approach your work, relationships, and your spiritual journey. Energetic blockages in your creative and spiritual energy that were previously hidden will be coming into the light soon. This process can feel a bit scary as we leave behind our comfort zone, but it will also be liberating as it will lead you to higher destinations never imagined before. New beginnings and new ways of being are just around the corner. It’s time to get those spiritual wings ready to fly.

As this Saturn and Neptune retrograde dance keeps moving and shifting our old perceptions, it is possible that at times our nervous and digestive system will feel stressed and ungrounded. This could manifest as mild headaches and dizziness, sleep issues, jaw tension, intestinal disturbances, and a few other more unique symptoms specific to your own personal journey. Please keep this in mind as this alchemical process of leaving behind old low frequency patterns moves through you.

Stay tuned for more energy updates as the initial 7:7 portal waves begin to arrive tomorrow. Have a wonderful day, much love 💖

WE ARE ONE ♡

Seeing the Sun again

It was a rebirth , for me there was so much fear and being on my own in the real world … surely an end times . 2003 began the ongoing journey, and I’m very grateful to have had on my own time , because no one else was available. I had many angels show up but no one to hold me, hug me etc . Except for our children , a younger sibling there was very little displays of affection . I too lost my colors and they’ve returned ; I am deserving and thankful 🙏

I can still remember the time when I begged for love. I lost my colors. I settled for the “maybe”, the “I’ll see if I can” and the “I’m tired”. I endured the pain of every no, and over time I started to believe that maybe, just maybe, that’s what I deserve. That I should just be grateful for the rare “yes” and just sit in the corner waiting.

It took some time, but when I finally realized that I’m slowly turning into this broken soul I always feared to be, I tried my best to get up and walk away. Step by step, I dragged my feet, and that’s when I learned that one of the most difficult things to do in life is to walk away from things that you’ve always wanted. But I did it.

I did it because every day seemed like it’s raining and I wanted to see the sun again. I did it for the days when I would laugh so hard my stomach would hurt. I did it because I wanted to believe that despite the messed up person that I am, despite all the scars and the holes in my chest, I deserve another shot at happiness.

I know it took a while, but I couldn’t be prouder.

I did it.

Shining

I crave a gentle life.

I know what hell looks like already.

More harsh lessons aren’t necessary.

Give me soft evenings, sweet as chocolate.

Nights worn like wool.

Let’s laugh till we’re in tears,

alongside those who make loving us look easy.

I want to breathe in the air of everywhere I once dreamt of making memories.

Though my hardships have shaped me,

in beautiful and painful ways that I will forever be grateful for,

I want my days to be full and affectionate.

I want to be formless,

someone who flows and moves without worry.

Some days I’m water.

Others, I’m lava.

Both are real.

Both are me.

All versions of me are honest and necessary.

Who I am is safe when respected.

I’d rather be a great friend to a few

than an acquaintance to many.

I’d rather be widely accepting

than widely accepted.

I want to be the one that others know it’s safe to turn to.

I want to be the person who I needed all those years ago.

There’s a softness within me that wasn’t always there.

It grew from heinous places.

Cold, callous, remorseful places.

My softness is my greatest strength.

To not be hardened by the very things meant to break you,

that’s what I’m most proud of.

Now, everyone near me gets my light.

This way we all shine.
