Human belief is important to pay attn to bc is effective. Whether something is truly right or not. The idea that God of any kind would step in to stop us is hilarious to me bc free will, accountability, but also projection onto and misunderstanding of God. God is not a cosmic cop God is Breath, Water, Life. God is desire, urge, friction, conflict, birth. The Divine Law is love, stewardship, harmony in Nature. Harmony in Nature is not a lack of violence but things in balance of use and effect.

For a lil breakdown 🧵: Pisces rules feet and toes, Saturn deals with skin and bones and structure and cycles, Venus deals with beauty yes but also I would say personal journeys (heroes journey + cycles of Venus-Inanna type energy). With Saturn present I think -

-Underworld themes will also be present. Though Pisces is related to the 12H and Venus to the 7H and 2H (iirc), I would also say 4H, 6H, and 8H themes will be relevant during this transit bc of Saturn, + Jupiter & Uranus in Taurus opp Scorpio energies

Saturn love beauty! Saturn loves cultivation! Altar set up when done properly is both saturnian and venusian, form and function melding beautifully and supporting one another Saturn likes to weave over years with you!! Don't give up!!! In that way I would consider Saturn, the greater Malefic, a beneficial support. This is why mars in cap is so beautiful imo, and makes me think of ironworking and wood carving

I need to devote some time to this study but I really feel like kids are hit hardest by new/full moons, moon V/C, and lunar eclipses (but tbh eclipses in general). I am not studied enough but I’m guessing Moon & Sun are really prevalent esp in my under 4/5 crowd Like I’ve worked retail, office, warehouse, food service, coffee specifically, and then end of life/memory care and finally infant-pre-k childcare and early education which is what I do now

And of everything I’ve observed so far (which means it’s still limited!) -

Some people choose evil. It’s not a demon in them or always a thing on them, they themselves continue to choose greed/power as their ruling spirit. Don’t even own their own heads. They choose things that separate them from their heart and from humanity.

1 Exorcism and sin have been on my mind a lot

The idea that sin is always punishable, that the relationship with God is something including punishment for simply being human pisses me tf off

You can be far from God in your heart & actions and very religious in show

Maybe what’s scarier to me is that my spirits don’t want me to stay in any boxes but to live my multi lineage expansive devotion loudly and with certainty and idk why it’s been such a struggle for me to do this (like going back to my teens it’s been a thing)

Anywho And by this I don’t just mean like the devotion I already share or like living your truth and claiming your spirits out loud but like

Visions and essays and being in a sort of rapture while praying and my experiences in mystical life which only get stronger and deeper

My interests are expanding, my own sense of possibility about myself is expanding, it’s like my whole inner world is changing lol

I don’t even know how to say what I might want to say, because my world is opening so much And these are all interests I’ve kept at arms length for years. Like this physics book is amazing and also reminds me of the sense of awe when I first learned what a quark is

I love cooking so much, and maybe one day I’ll have all the words but not yet. Food connects to family, culture, healing, relationships, love, and for me (and many others) also insecurity, ED’s, forced resourcefulness. Food is medicine, cooking is a craft that keeps me I grew up watching cooking shows, reading cookbooks (@bittman was a major resource in my dad’s kitchen), testing recipes.

When I was home alone or the main one responsible I would pretend I had to make a superb plate (inedible garnish? NO)

Cooking is as important to me as-

I think in spaces for years I’ve wanted to seem like I have myself together and know what I’m doing, and I’ve like def fallen apart and been not okay visibly but I also always share it, like I craft the not okay being seen, bc I didn’t feel like it was “allowed” to be human- And like if am not totally all together and clear and an expert of some kind in what I’m doing then I’m wrong

The internal “wrong” is heavier and worse feeling than failure, it’s like wrong and cannot come back from the wrong

That’s how it felt

I think I recently stepped out of a personal blockage and wow

Like I don’t have full words for it, but I’m glad for it

Who I am is not what I do and what I do cannot ever make who I am
Easy to know, different journey for inner understanding Yesterday was a sort of experiment of leaning into pieces of myself I reject or shy from or that I find I perfect and it was a fun, free, productive, soul feeding day

And while I LOVE sharing devotion (and devotional offerings) and likely always will, it’s not my core

On her Feast day, let me share that St Mary Magdalene is the patron Saint of perfumers

Iykyk

Here’s a small Franciscan write up about her and a thread of photos

franciscanmedia.org/saint-of-the-d… The first is my number one favorite, and two more I really dig for the skull symbolism
(I need to get the artist names, I just saved rq from Google images)

Like I may need to make a video about that one but listen

I will live, die, & afterlife preach upon this hill: God is HUGE. God’s love is tailored to the individual at every possible moment & expression of that individual. God is not going to wound you to own you. That’s abuse The idea of God breaking your will has the same energy of breaking someone’s will so you can keep them imprisoned and feeling without agency

If you convince a person servitude and pain are divinely ordained then you can control them

Once again, abuse
