Autumn Equinox equilibrium
As we approach the Autumn Equinox, a day of cosmic and earthly balance, we can also promote equilibrium within ourselves and in the collective.
Balance is a practice
Despite all of the summer fun and glorious sunshine, if you’re a parent (or even if you’re not), these warmer months might have you feeling a bit frazzled.
Restoring balance
Happy 13th day of March! I’ve been seeing the number 13 a lot today, which is a number associated with the divine feminine. One of the most profound keys to healing is to simply re-connect to the divine feminine within.
Why I love Friday the 13th
Did you know that, in many ancient cultures, 13 is the number of the divine feminine? This is because the moon has 13 cycles per calendar year and, on average, women have 13 menstrual cycles per year, as well.
Equinox expansion
As a collective, we’re being called to step more fully into our authentic selves. To be your truest self is to be joyfully aligned in mind, body, and spirit. But how do you do this? How do you become your authentic self?
Initiation
I recently returned home from two magical weeks in Italy. Half of the trip was devoted to a life-changing spiritual retreat steeped in ceremony, movement, song, sisterhood, ancestral healing, and more.
The denominator effect
In the world of finance, the denominator effect is something that happens when a portion of your overall portfolio decreases dramatically in value, which causes the rest of your holdings to increase as a greater percentage of your total portfolio. Essentially, something that was meant to occupy a certain amount of space could suddenly appear to take up a much larger share of the whole.
The indigenous way
The people closest to me know that I’m a voracious learner—constantly reading, listening, observing, and studying—both formally and informally. Inspired by my rich cultural heritage, for the last 25 years or so I’ve been drawn to learning about diverse spiritual traditions of Africa, the Americas, and Asia.
Activating your intuition
The world can get pretty noisy—full of audible and non-sensorial sounds and distractions that can make you feel disconnected from yourself and others.
Falling into balance
Autumn is a prime time to allow the things that you’ve outgrown to gently fall away.
The crucible
Have you been going through it, too? Remember that periods of great intensity can also be opportunities to alchemize stagnant, disruptive, or chaotic energies.
The unexpected
They say the biggest root cause of stress is when your expectations are not met.
Restoring balance and nurturing empowerment
Beauty, creativity, and collaboration are all expressions of the divine feminine, which has been devastatingly devalued in recent times.
