Grief changes us 

The pain sculpts us into someone who understands more deeply 

Hurts more often 

Appreciates more quickly

Cries more quickly 

Hopes more desperately 

Loves more openly - unknown

Episode 11: Sister to Sister

Available on iTunes, Soundcloud, and Google Play

“Sis” this, “sis” that. We throw the word around so freely, yet we don't seem to genuinely embrace each other in that light. In this episode, it was important for us to dissect the dynamics between black and brown women, on and offline. We’re supportive on the internet, but do we genuinely keep that same energy in person? Let’s be honest, so we can move forward and truly “run the world”, word to our queen Bey. We’re talking about sisterhood; what that looks like, feels like and means to us. We share our negative and positive experiences within the realm of sister, whether friendships or just sharing space. How can we show up for each other with respect and acceptance? Encourage someone else’s tribe and find your tribe. 

Lunarverse happenings: 

• Saturn direct in the sign of Capricorn

  • Saturn rules structure, time, elderly wisdom, lessons.

    • With it now direct and in the sign of Capricorn we can enforce maturity, discipline, bossing up into our lives

• Mercury direct in the sign of Virgo

  • With it being the planet of communication Virgo projects this sharpness about how we communicate, without the embellishments or feeling like we have to walk on egg shells.

• New Moon in Virgo

  • We can restart our goals and mission & be intentional about we declare on our lives

  • key themes: progress, self mastery, investment, productivity, stability, structure, routine, health, medicine and action.

This weeks ritual: 

 Burning of blue candle to awaken truth, unwavering communication and kindness. 

This weeks affirmation:

I love and accept my authentic self in a way that dilutes insecurities & allows me to accept my sisters as co-creators. I acknowledge that the universe has abundance for all of us. 

Quote reflection: 

 Is solace anywhere more comforting than that in the arms of a sister” - Alice Walker

Tarot reflection: Death + The Chariot

Why are we having so much trouble letting things go?  We have to stop trying to fit things into our lives when we’re way beyond it. 

Our lives shift— we evolve and take different shapes, therefore we can no longer take old habits, thought patterns, behaviors with us. Some of us are going as far as begging people to stay in our lives, just for the sake of our comfort or having a security blanket. Lets dead it! Right now we need to be magnifying our lives down to every single detail; what sense does it make to try to nurture the extraneous. That means we aren’t being discerning and picky like a Virgo with our time and energy. Think of this as a period of revival, if you have another chance to live again & build your life back up.. what are you going to do differently? Indecision breeds paralysis, what choice are you going to make? Make a decision, set an intention and make small steps to support it. 

The Chariot is an encouragement to go full force with your mission. We already have the energy of Saturn in Capricorn to help us with being disciplined, enforce your will power by taking back control of your life. The momentum of the chariot is an energy much like gravity in the way in which is almost carries you. Are you preparing yourself to take flight? Remember to pack light; this energy is filled with willpower, determination and strength which will inevitably guide you to success in this new chapter of your life.

Episode 10: To Lose is To Gain

Available on iTunes, Soundcloud, and Google Play

We know it's been a minute and we've missed you, tribe! It was necessary for us to take a step back and heal while we navigate through the losses we’ve been facing. For the 10th episode we wanted to bring it back to the circle of life. We all experience loss in some way shape or form. This seems to be the underlying theme of this eclipse season, so we’re journeying through loss by circumstances beyond your control and loss by means of releasing. This is the perfect time to sit with yourself & think about  Plus we’ve added a new ritual to our podcast experience, a tarot reflection! ( sorry for echoed sound quality!) 

Lunarverse happenings: 

• Solar Eclipse, Super New Moon in Leo

  • Heart chakra is very important! Be honest with yourself about where you’ve been, where you’re going, and most importantly where your heart is guiding you

  • Sit with yourself, especially your shadow.

  • Soul alchemy is occurring, think about redefining who you are and how you show up for yourself + walking in the path that your heart guides you vs. what you thought was the right path.

• Lions Gate Portal Opening ( 8/8/2018)

  • Sun, Earth and Sirius (star known as "spiritual sun") are in alignment.

  • Sirius is transmitting divine light, truth and consciousness.

  • It is an energetic potion that allows us to experience & feel things beaming from higher realm; dream work, spiritual awakenings, psychic downloads are common.

This weeks ritual: 

• Burning of green candle to open up our heart chakra and visualize a bright light from the stars beaming into our heart. 

This weeks affirmation:

I lovingly accept that there is beauty in pain. I lovingly accept that a loss is always a gain. I acknowledge my power, my resilience & my strength as the universe forces me to accept change. I welcome this necessary journey for my soul. 

Quote reflection: 

Don’t grieve, anything you lose comes round in another form. - Rumi

Tarot reflection: Strategy + Wheel of Fortune 

Because we have this super new moon, so many of us are going to be in our journals, planning, setting intentions & even expanding on the intentions that we’ve set in the past that are currently blooming. And if you aren’t currently do that, I strongly encourage you to.

Take some time to yourself to truly think about what you want to accomplish and establish honest intentions that reflect exactly what it is you desire and even AND beyond. Some of us can even be aiming higher and broadening our horizons. 

The key is to remember that when we set these intentions, some of us have a map out in our mind of how we visualize the journey to go, but the wheel of fortune in reverse reminds us of the natural twists and turns that life can take us—Especially with 6 planets in retrogrades. In no way shape or form does this mean that your intentions will not materialize, if they are aligned with your thoughts & action OF course they will! However, find peace in the moments that you may not be able to control or you feel that you’re being thrown off course. The path that we envision ourselves walking in may not be the same path that God has for us..this may change the direction, but it doesn’t change the destination. Always keep the bigger in picture in mind and focus less on the uncontrollable events.
