Another Otsutsuki?!

Comic 2: Day Off (with confusion.)

he just a little insecure,, (kakashi still told him to get it together)

back to the future now

Comic 3: What. (huh?)

Panel 2: very tiny.

when you are the muse of your own life, you attract what’s good for you.

let’s talk about how dance can enhance your magnetism. learning to entice, and learning to master the mystique is a way to feed your center of creation (sacral chakra). dance is a portal into feminine power. the dance is symbolism for aligning with your energy. you don’t force yourself to do more than what is required, but you just allow your desires to come to you. you go with your own rhythm. embracing eroticism will draw in your desires because this is where you can find your confidence. to be sensual in movement, is to welcome in new energy. when moving your hips, you are activating your creativity, stepping onto the threshold of artistry. you start to become aware of who you are as a woman, someone who has no limits. to move your hips in circles and twirl your arms above your head, flowing with endless rhythms and letting the music entrance you, is a physical demonstration of letting go. this is having attraction. dance with your eyes, dance with your lips. be living allure. experience divine play and have fun. as women, we don’t have to do too much. we don’t have to stress or do things outside of our natural flow. use this gift of dance as your healing, for your strength, and for your innovation.

Visualize white light growing like roots from your root chakra to the core of the Earth. And a stream of white light shooting from the top of your head, from your crown shakra, all the way up, flowing through the moon and sun, through the center of our galaxy and all the way back to you again.

Now imagine those two streams of light coming together in your heart.

What does that feel like?

i had a revelation that i’ve been trying to protect myself from heartbreak by 1. approaching relationships with cold logic and 2. distancing myself from “passionate” romantic feelings. overall, i’ve been subconsciously keeping my guard up.

i realized that there’s always a risk when dating, but that shouldn’t stop me from leaning into intimacy. i’m more mature now; i possess discernment and self-respect. that’s the best i can do for myself in a relationship—the rest is out of my control.

loving is scary, but it’s better than never loving at all.

and so i am opening myself up.

When fear is present in us, we bring awareness to it. We smile to it and call it by its true name. "Hello, my fear. I know you're there."

🐲 Let's Begin the Transition 🐉

Greetings & Again, HappyNewYear! Im starting off 2024 praying that we can all manifest & maintain a ThroatChakra as strong, active and healed as Katt Williams LOL, especially if you’ve been following along with my 2023 content ! This video is full of quick reminders and tips to start 2024 as we simultaneously come out of 2023’s Final Mercury Retrograde ! I start the video explaining why self care is not selfish AT ALL right now! It’s aligned with what God needs us to do to be our best! Self Care may come through a multitude of things for us this Winter Season like slowing our pace, better boundaries, stillness, deeper meditation and realigning with regimens, rituals and routines that refill our cups. A chunk of the video reviews time stamps where I received similar messages, yet I still give additional info about how this Mercury RX may challenge us to communicate & engage with more honesty, intention & mindfulness. Lastly, before giving a quick reading : I drop downloads putting the start of each “New Year” into perspective. The most important thing opening up 2024, is PEACE .

Here are some key messages from Spirit right now : 🕊️“Peace is trusting yourself, having/building faith and listening to your intuition.” 🕊️“Internal Guidance > External Guidance right now “ 🕊️“What’s Meant for You Will Match Your Peace, not disturb it” 🕊️“It Will Work Out in God’s Timing” 🕊️"Remember all that I've brought you through..."

Definitely use January to GO WITHIN! Coming out of this RX you should feel more confident in your voice, truth & personal wisdom. No one can advise you better than yourself right now. Starting off the year may come with a little bit of disillusion & unmet expectations from 2023. There may be a bit of grief and confusion around things that didn’t go or aren’t going quite as expected, as well as uncertainty with how to move forward. Know our guides don’t want us to cry over spilled milk and ESPECIALLY over milk that has yet to spill! Reflect & Release as needed, but try not to sulk in that energy. Instead, tap into your spirituality and communal resources to get you through your struggles. Understand there’s a bigger picture at play and transitioning into a new space/new year is a chance for you to think & dream bigger when feelings of lost hope & faithlessness seep in. Know if you are maintaining YOUR PEACE, you are always winning in God’s eyes! Prioritizing Peace is the key to getting the most out of January 2024 and anchoring yourself through this major state of transitioning from an old space into something new.

🪞Self Check with these questions / Meditate on where you are beginning 2024 :

Are you listening to your body?

Do you have rituals, community & connections that fuel your faith?

What is the main thing(s) you harbor disappointment about from 2023?

How can you release your expectation / idea of how things should’ve been in 2023 or could be in 2024?

What does prioritizing YOUR peace look, feel & sound like in January 2024?

SERIOUS QUESTION: How does one go about getting some good quality training in all things spiritual (life coach, etc) to become certified? I have been looking into it but cannot find anything legit?

[wikagirl]

I‘ve been using friendship bracelet braiding methods to make fancy trims and borders for future larp projecs (because getting nice looking ones that fit my aesthetic is mucho hard)

and so I got curious about where friendship bracelets come from

and now I‘m confused

because the practice of friendship bracelets is apparebtly appropriated from central american indigenous practices but the knot methods and just decorative knots in general can be seen all through out history, most notably china and arabic countries but also slav and norse cultures.

And now I‘m not quite sure if what I‘m doing can be seen as cultural appropriation or not because I‘m using these methods to supplement for decorative trims that I don‘t have the recources for to make in a historically appropriate way. The knotbinding itself doesn‘t really seem to be traceable to one specific culture as far as I can tell from the like 8 articles I‘ve read, just the bracelet giving thing and that‘s what the knots are most associated with, so idk if it would be okay for me to use the methods still or not.

It‘s generally a fun and easy to learn craft, it keeps my fingies occupied so my brain can focus and I but if this is a nother thing that has been forcefully taken from a nother culture then I‘m not sure if I want to continue using these methods :/

change isn't inherently bad, just like how difference isn't inherently bad

very financially stable year, you'll be more open to taking career risks

if there were any financial struggles in the past year, take comfort in knowing there will be little to nothing of the sort in the future

be careful to not be boastful about your finances though, as its better to succeed in silence

you create your own happiness, you are the main character, stop relying on others to save you

this year, you'll stop seeking others validation and look inside of yourself to find what you've been searching for in others

you'll be stepping into a bad bitch energy this year, one that feels comfortable being alone or with others

strong leadership is something you'll be developping this year, as well as strong manifestation skills

you want it, you're going to get it!!

go after all of your goals this year, hesitance will do you no good

i can see that at the end of the year, you'll emerge a totally different person

you'll be more confident, self-assured and more joyful (i sense that autumn is an important time period)

overall, this year will be a fresh chapter in your life

you'll shed the old you, bad habits, and negative aspects to make way for a life and personality that's authentically you

some advice i would give would be to not be afraid to stand apart, dont worry about the opinions of others

speak of success, and it will come to you <3

[irukasito]

kakashi and iruka scenes are few and far in between but the ones we do get are so intimate. like:

they're alone 90% of the time (on the bench, on the roof, in kakashi's office, in that hallway during the wedding episode, during the wedding itself, in iruka's office)

even when they're not, at least one if not both of them have their attention fully on the other (kakashi listening to iruka on the roof with hiruzen, with naruto knocked out in the back hills, at the mission desk, during chuunin exams nominations, in tsunade's office, pain’s attack, vice principal convo in ichiraku, after the graduation exam in boruto)

they're either opening up to or helping each other in most of them (advice on the bench, sincere apology on the roof, tsuande's office with pakkun, during pain's attack, in kakashi's office about the wedding, conversation at the wedding)

there's usually a picturesque background/aspect of some sort framing them in these scenes (the bench with the sunset, standing under flowering trees, in iruka's office in front of a sunset, softer lighting in general)

THE TOUCHING AND BLUSHING AND SMILING AND GAZING. ALL THE TIME. EVERYWHERE.

Even the implied interactions they have in Kakashi Retsuden are like this. The sleep chakra point thing in particular (ESPECIALLY IT BEING ON THE BACK OF THE NECK-- like iruka was not teaching him all that in public, that happened in the privacy of one of their homes or offices)

not to mention the promotional/merchandising materials (of which there are too many to point out but im thinking about the sunflower field one in particular)

Paid readings open

₊˚ʚ Pile 1 ₊˚ʚ

current energy: some of you here might be quitting something. There is a "bid adieu" kind of energy here. There also seems to be a throat chakra blockage, maybe you are unable to speak, maybe due to throat issues, cold, flu or even could be engaging in frequent arguments. An advice for you regardless is taking time to think before you speak. Some of you here might also be having trauma resurface. There could be trust/confidence issues as well. Some of you here might also be going through third eye activation. There may also be trouble in engaging things you want to, making time and space for things. You may be having nightmares or such kind of thoughts stemming from past, your family lineage or even trauma.

what's next: for some of you here, who were leaving something, or someone behind, good call, it is the right thing to do. I am hearing "everything that has ever been lost will always be replaced by something better". There would be a lot of options making themselves available to you. You have divine luck, divine protection. One more thing that is coming through is that a fake relationship would fall off, especially if it is with a women. Some of you may also have a change of personality, going from a "I'm a boss bitch" types to going into more serene energy, more calm and collected. Mind you, I do not mean to say there's anything wrong with either :) For those of you who want it, there are options in love coming through as well. For some of you, you may as well have many options in love, think clearly though because one of them may end up being your true love. There would be a lot of emotional healing coming through. For those of you who have been "used" to feeling numb, your heart would open again, just use your thinking and think clearly, please. One of your heartfelt wishes, one you had a lot of attachment to may be coming true as well. It is also possible to hear an apology from someone, especially if they are a water sign.

₊˚ʚ Pile 2 ₊˚ʚ

current energy: while shuffling these cards I had a feeling of "money" being important to this group. Either you gained money, lost it, are investing it or maybe you are planning to make a significant purchase. Pile 3 maybe important as well. Some of you may also be in a mental hole. Feeling trapped or burdened by something. Someone here could have also gone through a hardship in romantic connection, a heartbreak or could have seen the options they anticipated not work out, making a wrong choice. Some of you here might also be struggling with making changes in your day to day life, which can be as big as moving countries or as small as working out everyday. Holding on to ideas, people, memories or routines you know you should let go of.

what's next: I see a wonderful opportunity for financial gains presenting itself to you. You may be afraid or nervous to take it, but go after it, Pile 2. Do not get confused though. Apart from this you may also see new bonds being strengthening with friends and people you meet, more confidence and charisma. You'd appear attractive and reliable, and if you are someone who is anxious socially or likes being alone, you would come out of the shell and enjoy life, enjoy people. For people who are going through a breakup, especially, getting over this person may be the best thing to do. It may take a while, but there is wonderful things awaiting you. If you can subscribe to this description of this person being extremely manipulative with their words, it's even more of a confirmation. For others of you, do not sabotage things coming to you. If its love, luck, money, travel. A wish is about to come true but maybe not exactly how you thought it would. For example, money may come in form of an idea, meeting someone important may come in form of having this feeling of going to that place or saying hi to that person etc. So do not sabotage your blessings by being in a warzone mentally always :)

₊˚ʚ Pile 3 ₊˚ʚ

current energy: Some of you here may be working out a lot. Listening to motivational music. Some of you might also be growing more towards calmer things and ideas, maybe yoga, spiritual retreats in mountains etc. I get why there was a connection between pile 2 and 3, because yet again there seems to be a feeling of being deceived in love, or feeling as if the wish came true but it was a façade. Some of you might also have received a promotion at work, or may have been taking too much workload, maybe even creating an imbalance. There could be arguments on this. Some of you may have "severed ties" with something, maybe a habit, an idea, or a person, but regardless it seems for the best. Birds may be important. I would say watch out for people who try to appear "way too sweet" and try to get under your skin the meanwhile. There could have been a connection which was off balance, especially the masculine energy which could've led to the spiritual awakening of the feminine energy.

what's next: There seems to be a LOT of things that seem to be coming for you pile 3. Before I type next, I heard "revolution starts within", makes sense since I am seeing a lot of reversals in your reading. You need to step out of your mind and body for a while, or atleast strike a balance to be able to experience the real world. "You are not running out of time" is one another message I heard. You will find your spark again, very very soon. Being full of energy, exciting things in life, that once felt dull and lifeless. A period of stagnation is ending. You would be given a way to live this exciting time, but you have to act on it yourself. "Do not be afraid of judgement or being cringey" Maybe you wanted to start a venture, an account, YouTube, do it! Because there is indeed some change coming into your career and financial situation which is divine. A wish is about to come true. Do not "force" change or your energy levels on yourself, let it take time. There is a lot of healing happening for you, especially if you were hurt by someone or something in the past. Things are about to get soo good. Spring after a winter.

What Aang’s Relationship With His Kids Tells Us About His Relationship With Katara

Bumi: “Oh, boo-hoo. Must've been real hard for you, flying around the world with dad, riding elephant-koi all day.”

Tenzin: “Oh, so that's what this is all about.”

Kya: “That's what it's always been about. You think you're some savior who has to carry on dad's legacy.”

Tenzin: “Who else is going to do it?”

Kya: “How about all of us?”

Bumi: “Yeah, we're Aang's kids too.”

The whole problem with this family is, Aang didn’t believe that.

Aang has a long, undeviating track record of never questioning anything he believes about the Air Nomads. Who the hell has a perfect and complete understanding of their society, government, international relations, education system, religion, morality, genetics, and reproduction at age 12? According to Aang? He does. 

The entire lynchpin of Aang’s Book 3 arc is all about how Air Nomads are pacifists and cannot ever under any circumstances harm a life. (We’re going to ignore the body count Aang’s already wracked up over the first two seasons for the sake of preserving his feelings because those were soulless NPCs or something.) 

And yet Aang never questions this…

Monk Gyatso’s bones surrounded by a pile of Fire Nation soldier bones. The picture doesn’t fit Aang’s image of Air Nomad peace and harmony, so he ignores it entirely. It NEVER comes up despite its overwhelming relevance to Aang’s internal conflict and the sorts of advice he seeks from authority figures in the third season (despite Monk Gyatso being the penultimate authority figure in Aang’s life).

Another thing Aang never questions?

There’s no such thing as a non-airbending Air Nomad. They’re just all born that spiritual. And spirituality is the golden key that unlocks bending. (Because Bryke said so.)

Despite Guru Pathik not being a bender. Despite the fact that Zhao, literal spirit murderer, is one. Despite Toph—the most un-spiritual, cynical, feet-on-the-ground-head-nowhere-near-the-clouds member of Aang’s friend group—being the most powerful bender of the lot. Despite Hama being a waterbender equal to none but Katara while completely cut off from her culture and turning her back on everything we believe about water bending’s inherent ties to community, connectedness, and love (Iroh’s words). Despite Azula mastering the god-tier lightning technique BECAUSE she’s practically dead inside and values life least of all things. Despite the fact that Princess Yue has the literal MOON SPIRIT THAT IS THE SOURCE OF ALL WATERBENDING living inside her, and yet she still somehow manages to not be a bender.

Despite the fact that Air Nomads roam all over the world, sewing their wilds oats throughout every nation, yet no airbending toddlers ever crop up in Fire Nation or Earth Kingdom preschools. 

Despite the fact that non-monogamous societies where men have multiple partners father more children and boost the population faster than in societies that favor “attached” relationships, yet the all-airbending Air Nomads still somehow have the smallest population of any ethnic group in the world. 

Despite the fact that Aang’s twin, Ty Lee, is RIGHT. THERE. with her unparalleled aura-seeing, chakra blocking spirituality and her GRAY EYES in a world where color coding is ~totally~ not a thing… *sigh* 

But nope. Air Nomad parentage = airbending child. Always.

So when Katara births a child that is… not an airbender? Not any kind of bender at all, in fact. There’s only one logical conclusion (in Aang’s mind). 

That is not Aang’s child. 

Aang never had a problem traveling with non-airbenders before. He was non-exclusionary by nature. Katara and Toph and Zuko were welcome. Sokka and Suki were welcome. The more, the merrier, in fact. Because Aang loves nothing as much as he loves an adoring audience.

Yet Bumi never travelled with Aang.

Bumi’s as old in this picture as Aang was in the first series. He had an entire decade in which he should have been the most important thing in his parents’ lives. His personality was already more or less formed (not completed, but the groundwork was laid) by the time Tenzin came along. Bumi’s inferiority issues began long before there were any airbending children around to siphon Aang’s attention for training purposes. 

Aang and Katara didn’t have another child until Bumi was on the verge of adolescence because Aang was convinced that Katara cheated. And I’m guessing it took Mr. “Let Your Anger Out, And Then Let It Go” about ten years to forgive his wife and give her the chance to get it right. (Which is at least four years longer than he gave her to forgive her mother’s murderer, in case you forgot.)

Acolyte: “Sorry, I thought you were the servants.”

Bumi: “We’re Tenzin’s brother and sister!”

Acolyte: “Avatar Aang had other children? The world is filled with more airbenders?!”

Kya: “We’re not airbenders.”

Acolyte: “Oh… I’m so sorry.”

The Air Acolytes—whose whole identity, purpose, lifestyle, and religion center around every detail of this man's life and beliefs—didn't know Aang had more than one child.

The best case scenario here is that Aang simply pretended his older children didn’t exist because he was ashamed of them and made Katara keep them shut away at all times. 

And maybe that could have worked… If Aang and Katara had ever had any privacy in their relationship. But they didn’t.

The Air Acolytes have been following Aang and Katara since the comics. They’ve been there at every step of Aang and Katara’s life together. Observing. Fangirling. Emulating. Diefying. Looking for weaknesses in the relationship because Katara was only his “first girlfriend.” 

Yet, somehow, they didn’t know Aang had three children. 

I can’t imagine a way for them not to know unless Aang actively told people, “Those aren’t my kids,” and let Katara bear the shame and stigma of having the world believe she was unfaithful. 

All because Aang couldn't entertain the idea that he was wrong about some facet of a society he never understood clearly.

I've been online for years, sometimes obsessing over content. I'm tired. I'm starting my New Year away from social media, but before I go I want to make a final observation of where we are collectively. New Year's is a transition between one calendar year to another as well as a season change from Fall to Winter. Watch a piece of TikTok live recording to see me channel this summarized message--inspired by a participant-- in real time ⬇️

How should we step into 2025?

Spirit says the main ingredient right now (has been/will be for a while) is :

Sacred Solitude.

Sacred Solitude is pausing, quiet time, meditation, reflection and hermit mode. It's intentional time taken to recharge, recalibrate and connect with one's self. Sacred Solitude is also the key to unlocking the needs of our heart & being able to release grudges and incorporate those things/people/experiences into progressive motions. By taking time to yourself, you will be able to experience more authenticity. You'll also be able to pour differently because you will feel more grounded in your own needs and desires versus moving from a space of depletion, transaction or desperation & people pleasing. We must enter 2025 HEART CENTERED & with Compassion, Grace & Forgiveness. Being heart centered starts with recognizing what makes you uncomfortable! Moving closer to this moment many recorded readings and messages I've posted have focused on the use of DISCOMFORT (negativity, triggers, illness, dis-ease, frustrations & disappointments) as FUEL for progress. Things that hurt or disturb us in our journeys do not have to permanently stop us in our tracks. In fact, they should redirect us to the next best thing.

Discomfort should allow us to connect deeper with our heart space so that we can move closer toward our destinies & maintain alignment.

When we embrace sacred solitude we also embrace our power. Any person, place or situation consuming too much space in your life, psyche, emotions, etc. robbing you of prioritizing what's best for you should be challenged if you are a grown ass adult. Take your power back by disconnecting from the noise around you. Find your calm and center. This is the way to walk forward into the new year & the winter season :

For those of us who already embrace sacred solitude and live a heart centered life, you my friend have the work of maintenance! Don't go into this "new year" or winter season giving anyone/anything the power to make you crash out or misalign yourself! Whatever is going on externally can be solved by fixing/maintaining the relationship with the your internal.
