Hello lovely humans ✨

It’s been a weird few months for me personally and I haven’t been active at all on here. I miss all the lovely faces and spiritual conversations and beautiful interactions but I’m also pivoting a bit and so I won’t be focusing on this page as much.

Quick side update: I joined the covid club over Christmas and came out of it with an idea for a thrifting/vintage business so I’ve just officially launched that! It’s called and feel free to give it a follow if you love thrifted books, fun vintage clothing, and just a ✨touch✨ of magic.

I love you all and hope you’re doing well 💕💕💕.

🐞MESSAGE FOR THE COLLECTIVE🐞
Week of 09/12/21
-
Joy in small ways this week, loves. Gratitude for the little gifts of everyday life. Notice the simple pleasures and quiet moments that provide opportunities for happiness.

Fall season and earth energy are on the horizon, teaching the world about letting things go and being grateful for what nourishes us. This is a sign to begin that process now. Instead of constantly seeking the next thing and worrying about how it will show up, can you allow yourself to be pleasantly surprised with the joys already present in your life?

The ladybird is a gentle reminder to let yourself feel good in this very moment and allow life to surprise you with happiness and fortune.

BEST ELEMENTS FOR ANXIETY 💫

When I feel hella ✨anxious⚡️, my go-to elements to work with are water and earth. Cooling water cleanses the heat of my racing thoughts and grounded earth helps me to find stability and peace.

If you’re caught up in the emotions of anxiety, try taking a moment to imagine yourself sitting in or by a mountain creek. Allow the cool flow of water to loosen and release the tension of your anxious mind. As you settle deeper into a state of cleansing, feel yourself beginning to float downriver and allow yourself be held by the soft embrace of this mountain water.

Expand your awareness to the edges of the creek and the creek bed, feeling into the earth energy that holds this flow of water. Your thoughts are the water, now cleansed, cleared, and purified. Your soul is the creek bed—a container of support that never changes. The Earth element is stable and grounding to the sometimes chaotic rushing of your thoughts, and is available to you always. It brings a sense of balance and ease in the flowing existence of day to day life 🌿

Allow the water element to cleanse and the earth element to ground in the creek visualization whenever you feel your mind trapped in the throes of anxious thoughts and feelings 🌙

Can be a thing? Because I had so much fun with this 😂

Also the deck I pulled from is called The Way of Brighid Oracle Cards and I purchased it on Etsy if anyone was wondering 💛

I’m feeling into the water element pretty heavily this week, as an inspiration and as a healer. Right now it’s coming through for me in the way of honoring my shifts and changes and understanding I can be everything all at once 🌧🌊🌫

Hello lovely Instagram humans 💛

This is just a quick announcement that I will be taking a spring sabbatical from Instagram and this pretty lady in the photo is the reason why.

Her name is Hermione, and if you’ve been around my page for a while you’ve probably seen her cute lil face. My mom and I adopted her and our other dog Sirius in February of 2017 and they’ve been living exclusively with my mom pretty much ever since. There was a short stint where she lived with me, but she’s been mostly at my mom’s.

Well, now she’s coming to live with me full time 🐶

She’s 72 lbs of pure chaos I’m not gonna lie, and although I’m excited about her coming to live with me, there’s a laundry list of behaviors that need to be addressed. We need to get to know each other again and build up a new trust that will allow each of us to live in happy community with each other.

In order to give her my absolute and full attention and dedicate this time to our joint growth + development, I’ve decided to take some time off of Instagram. I won’t be posting or taking on any new clients for the time being. Once Hermione and I settle in and find our new normal, I will absolutely be back with new content and new value to provide you all.

I’m excited and nervous and happy and antsy and everything all at once for this new adventure I’m embarking upon, and I can’t wait to see you all on the other side ✌️

Today’s message in the cards speaks of steadfast grace and speaking from the energy of inner strength 🔥

All three animals in this spread move with graceful strength— the shark with its powerful tail, the parrot + swan with the sure and steady flap of their wings. These three cards together bring about an emotion of knowing what you’re fighting for—having a firm commitment to your values—and then engaging with the world through the lens of peaceful inner power.

The parrot and swan don’t have to ask anyone’s permission to fly, they simply fly. The shark certainly does not operate in the world with indecision—it leads with its intuition and instinct. Understand and get to know the depths of your inner power + strength. You, like the shark, like the parrot + swan, are a beautiful force of nature. So what are you going to fight for?

Also know that your warrior side is just as valuable as your nurturing, caring side. You need both. In fact, when you lead from a place of understanding and attentiveness, it affords you more impact.

The overall feeling I’m getting from these cards is to embody your most wise, majestic ruler archetype. Place the crown on your head unapologetically and do not apologize for the power in your bones. Listen to others with intention, and afford them grace when the circumstance calls for such an action. Be magnanimous, feel into that “greatness of spirit.” Channel the energy of the shark, parrot, and swan today. And may all the blessings of the animal kingdom be upon you, this day and everyday.

This is the face and feeling of unconditional love.

I don’t know how many of you know this, but I spent a year working at a doggy day care from 2019-2020. It was hands down the best working experience of my life because I was able to connect with dogs on a daily basis.

Dogs have always and forever been my favorite animals (not counting wolves, but as a kid I decided they were basically the same thing 😅). I connect with them on a very deep level, and consider them to truly be my friends. Especially when I was just coming into awareness of my hypersensitivity and empathic nature, dogs were a safe haven—they, too spoke the language of energy. There were no words needed, no complicated emotions, nothing they wanted from me. We simply understood each other. Come to find out later that Brigid is known as a protector of domestic animals, dogs included 🐶

The dogs I worked with at the day care taught me many lessons—how to set boundaries, living fully in the present moment, being thrilled with the little things in life, and the feeling of unconditional love + acceptance.

I’m very lucky to have a large support network and experience love with many souls on this planet. But the kind of love that comes from a dog is truly something special. If you’re lucky enough to have a pup in your life, reflect on the lessons they’ve taught you and give gratitude.

Since beginning my 1:1 work with .theophania, I’ve really begun tapping into the energy of the elements.

I was and still am a HUGE Avatar the Last Airbender Fan, and I think I resonated with the show so much because of the element bending. I loved how each element had a unique feeling and personality, which reflected in the culture and style of each bending + nation.

Earth was stable, strong, enduring ( sing se). Fire was passionate, powerful, and uncompromising. Water was softer, connection-oriented, and mutable (literally the water nation made their houses from snow and ice). Air was cerebral, free, and peaceful.

I love the ways Brigid as a goddess is connected to each element. She is a goddess of fire and healing wells, as well as the caretaker of domestic animals and a goddess of poetry + the arts. I enjoy gaining inspiration from these aspects of her, using them to find my own ways to explore the elements.🔥🌊🪶🌳

Because my astrological chart is predominately air, intentionally connecting with the elements has been very grounding and balancing for me. When the world feels like it’s too much and im all in my head, finding tangible ways to play with the elements is a way for me to get back to the present moment and feel centered once again.

What are some ways that you connect to the elements? Do you have one element that calls to you more than the others? And MOST importantly, which bender would you choose to be if you were in Avatar— water, earth, fire, or air??

R E S T 🏔

Rest has always been a hard concept for me to grasp. In the past, I've prided myself on my work ethic, on my ability to keep going + going, and my constant drive to do better. And none of these are bad traits to have, but without rest to support + balance them, they just inevitably lead to burnout.

It's ironic, being in the healing world--teaching others to learn to slow down, listen to their intuition, and invite calm into the chaos--and then behind the scenes not doing the same thing for myself 😅Although I guess I shouldn't call it ironic, more just being human.

And this past week my body said "nope, you need to find rest, and if you don't stop yourself we're going to make you stop." I didn't listen though-- I thought I could go further, think harder, push it even more.  So my body's defense mechanisms kicked in and forced me into four days of feeling like absolute s**t 🤒

And I'll admit, it's been HARD. I'm in the middle of a launch, I'm on a content creating roll, I think about work all the time--when I'm at my day job, when I'm working on BW, when I'm NOT working on BW. I'm constantly thinking of new content, new ideas, checklist after checklist. But in the midst of all of it, I forgot to make myself come home to that place of rest, to my inner hearth fire.

Anyways, here is a reminder to take a breather. Take a day, make a list of your favorite things, and DO THEM. Tend to your inner hearth, your inner home, and draw on the well of soul within yourself. That way, you can come back to your work full of energy + inspiration. And most importantly, you can show up best for others when you've made that commitment to yourself.
