Beauty And Dirt

I always felt that I was an animal in a human body pretending to be a lady... can you relate?

Everything about socially acceptable femininity is bleached and sanitised, the hair from our bodies removed, plastic menstrual products like medical supplies... then birth the ultimate female act which is all about storks and white onesies and cutesy baby animals, when everybody who has seen it knows birth is primal and bloody.

It made no sense to me and I used to wonder why everybody was complicit in this really inconvenient and unfulfilling game of pretend.

We are the Goddess and the Goddess is us. We are all Baba Yaga or Aphrodite as the mood takes us.

We are the sensual maiden who dances with flowers in her hair and the feral witch who fences her house with skulls and bones.

We are the wild feminine ❤

Reading 28/04/2020

The sky itself feels super heavy today, it feels like I'm moving through honey! It makes me want to crawl back under the covers and hide but I'm settling for comfort food and lots of cups of tea and reminding myself it will pass!

I used the Wild Unknown deck today as I felt it was appropriate...

The 7 of wands is all about feeling overwhelmed, feeling surrounded by things that make you feel like you're not enough, that you don't have the energy for. It can also mean having to balance two different roles... for me today I think this is showing the overlap between the world we can directly perceive and the psychic realm. If you are sensitive to energy you will be finding today especially hard. My nightmares last night were intense!

The 2 of cups is all about loving connection. So today we need to really look after ourselves and our delicate emotions and to be as gentle with ourselves as we would if we were a child who was feeling under the weather. Fill your cup with things that make you feel good.

The Sun in this context is reminding us that all storms pass and the sun will come out again, and the dark struggle we have found ourselves in is necessary. It allows us to reach supreme light and clarity about our hopes and dreams and who we want to be, as we shine as our true self.

Stay cosy today everybody!

Who Are You?

Who are you?

Daughter, mother, friend, lover

Who are you?

The girl with the blonde pageboy-cut, the woman howling at the sea

Who are you?

Endless longing. A kiss while sleeping. The ribbon in a journal.

Who are you?

The one who came before. The forest dweller, the blue-painted woman.

Who are you?

The baby at the breast of the cosmic mother. Endless love.

Who are you?

The song of the universe.

Who are you?

Eternal.
