I don't care about everyone else's rules; or the life is supposed to be this way only. I am finally breathing my own air. I'm done following the rules of how I'm supposed to be. For too long, I lived a life defined by other people's expectations—behind a bar, at a desk, giving myself away until there was nothing left for me. I wasn't even a part of my own life.
But I'm done.
I made a decision: I was going to be an active participant in my own life and stop just going through the motions of the world's expectations.
I finally went outside to touch the earth and see the moon. It wasn't about "creating" a business; it was about opening something up inside of me. I don't care about the "proper" way anymore. I'm only doing what I feel. I'm finally doing what I am supposed to be doing.
Healing isn't soft or pretty. It's gritty, it's dark, and sometimes it hurts. Whether I'm working with crystals or blending herbs, I'm looking for the truth. I'm looking for what it means to me, for you, and for what I'm putting into the world.
This isn't an "aesthetic." It's the reality of skin and soil. I'm offering you a ritual because I needed it first. When you see the Moon & Mother silhouette, know it came from the night I finally saw myself. It came when I realized I needed the grounding and healing, I needed to remember that even in the middle of an eclipse, the sun hasn't gone anywhere—and neither has the light inside of me.
I am finally living on my own terms. I'm not hiding, and I'm not making myself small to make anyone else comfortable.
Maybe something here will open up that night inside of you, too. This is exactly where we are supposed to be.
