Hard message to get through but someone in your relationship might be cheating or there might be someone who has an eye on your partner and might try to frame them . Only for some people

Listen to your higher self write a letter to them

Your path from now on is of the hermit it might be lonely but it's worth it discoveries are on your way in fields of history, psychology, quantum mechanics etc.

Pile 9 :

Muse of history

Chanelled messages: 13 missed calls , glow up is loading , search in the Egyptian archives , glow and peach coloured cheeks

The number six is significant, also specifically for someone there's this person who is delaying your glow up by doing some nasty as spell , might be a close friend

You are ignoring some signs from the universe , they're coming again and again and you're ignoring it look into it closely , you're elevating in your consciousness.

Your energy levels are high and you're matching ahead in your journey setbacks are never the end the sheer power of desire iss enough to keep going .

You're slowly climbing the stairs of life to become confident and assertive you might even call upon a partner soon who is very sure about themselves.

You should plant more trees and learn about them about their origination etc , i specifically get about Tulsi and the lore behind it . Some others would be eucalyptus, basil and marigold.

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you enjoyed this

Have a great day/ night ♥️🌹

What would the 2007 turtles be like around s/o's little sibling? They're only 12 years old. Would they play with them or something?

Omg!

This is so cute & a quick write!

TMNT 2007 Headcanons: How They Would React to your Sibling!

Leonardo

Dad vibes 100000%

Not really the play type, that’s more Mikey and Donnie's thing

He tries to be a good role model, though, not all the time

He's extremely sweet to your sibling, but don't get it twisted, he's not a pushover

unlike Donnie and Mikey who cave in at the first sign of pressure, and Raph who lets your sibling do anything they desire, Leo's the more level-headed one

"That seems dangerous...oh! how about we do xyz instead? Is that okay?"

He's also a really good talker. he knows how to talk to your 12 year old sibling. Not like a child, or a full-grown adult, either. He talks to them with respect, dignity.

tries to get them to be a mini-leonardo for some odd reason- but in a cute way! He'll suggest small things like a short meditation lesson or something like that.

Leo also is an avid tea drinker, he might try and get your sibling to try it. WILL show off his big tea box and talk about it for HOURSSS if given the chance.

Raphael

Omg

The fun divorced auntie with no time for b.s that slides you money at the BBQ

no but seriously Raph is a cool guy, would probably get them into some devious shenanigans (if you allow it)

Likes to take them out on a bike ride, THATS his version of fun for a kid

Teaches them to whoop some ass always

Will join in if Mikey is playing video games with your sibling!

If your sibling is pretty quiet, he tries to get them to talk,

"So, uh, sup, kid?" Raph thinks he's not good with the youngters. But, trust me, kids would look up to Raph.

if your sibling had to pick a favorite, its a high chance it'll be raph.

Will try to get your sibling into sports or something masculine that's not something they're normally into. He'll find a way to make it interesting for them.

is an anchor for your sibling to let all their aggression out. If they need to vent or aren't feeling the best, raph seems to be the guy they go to. If anyone knows what it's like to not grasp their emotions, it's raphael.

So, it's a blessing to have Raph around for those moments! It makes going to the Lair very rewarding knowing that theres a turtle that has the same emotion troubles <3

ilove2007raph omfg.

Donatello

Omg

"You got games on your phone?" - your sibling, to Donnie

ALWAYS lets your sibling play computer games and shows them all the very illegal sites to watch free movies that are brand new

shows them how to use a VPN for said sites

he's the tutor. If your sibling has a big test coming up, Donnie will be more than happy to help

explains math and science really well,

leo is the english guy (i hc he's a bookworm idcidcidcidc debate ya mother)

Him and your sibling play roblox and minecraft together and nobody can tell me otherwise. Donnie is 10000% a sucker for minecraft and roblox.

like just picture donnie aggressively typing in-game after a probably 8 year old just called him a doo-doo head and having the best comeback only for roblox to do the "*************"

donnie loves minecraft, this is a fact. It has calming music, great ambiance, and he would love to just create a world and play online with your sibling and build a few things! It's super cute, and i just know your sibling would love gaming time with donnie

Michelangelo

Omg

yall thought raph was the only hip auntie?

this is the auntie who vows to be single the rest of her life and is carefree as fuck. the one who always makes the best potato salad

that auntie

anyway, mikey works with kids, so...

self-explanatory

he hopes and prays that your sibling isn't like the ones that beat him to a pulp at the parties he hosts

he gets along with them pretty well! Mikey is always down for skateboarding or something that involves fucking up raph's day. Either one gives him satisfaction

will teach your sibling how to use a board no questions asked he's so dedicated to teach them t

the devious duo- Raph has no idea your sibling is in on the pranks done to him, which makes it even funnier! your sibling will distract Raph while Mikey does his magic, and poof! Raph's day is ruined, and now Donnie has to go calm his brother down from beating his baby brother to a pulp

if your sibling isn't into video games, no worries! It's entertaining to watch Mikey play them, he explains what's happening and the context, so it's easier for them to understand.

Got an impulse to buy?

Do you find yourself wasting hours everyday browsing/online window shopping? Is your compulsive buying eating away at your budget & savings?

Things to do instead.

Meditate on why you’re window shopping.

What is it that you’re seeking from buying this item? Do you already have a similar item? Are you dissatisfied with what you possess? Do you imagine you might gain happiness from the item? Will it be long term use and happiness? Are you trying to prove something to yourself or others with your possessions? Etc.

Analyze why you shop, what triggers you to do it, how you feel during the process of shopping. Examine things you already own.

How much of it do you regularly use? Do you love or like most of your possessions? Can you remember which items were impulse buys? Which items were part of a “phase”? Which items were bought simply because they were cheap, free, or on sale? How satisfied with these purchases. The point isn’t to feel guilt. But to be present, and reassess the items that make up your life. To hopefully learn about yourself and carry with you lessons to use in the future.

Anytime you find yourself browsing potential items to buy, research how to create the item yourself.

Learning to be self-sufficient will save money, and make you more resourceful. The more DYI projects you do, the more it will become second nature.

Use the time you would be using to window shop to do other tasks.

Instead of indulging the habit of wanting what we don’t have, we can enjoy living in what we do have. Do a workout, clean, cook, go for a run, listen to music or watch a movie. You don’t need much to enjoy life, or explore hobbies.

Me again, thanks for answering! Another question popped into my mind while reading an ask where you answered in regards to the yandere ending-what about the twisted & sweet endings? Particularly the latter-that tire's still flat after all.

No prob!

Also HUGE SPOILERS AHEAD for the Twisted and Sweet endings

When it comes to the Twisted Ending, Aspen made their own deal with Rory, that's why their eyes are red. Aspen asked Rory to expand the area of the force field so that Crowe and them can travel farther than Winter Hollow. In this way, Aspen and Crowe could go to one of the nearby villages (most probably Frostpeak Town) to acquire the tools necessary for an internet connection.

Once Aspen has access to the internet, they use their graphic design and online marketing skills to make digital tourism advertisements in order to attract people into Winter Hollow so that they can give their bodies to the red scavengers.

Aspen is as much of a yandere and as much of a crazy person as Crowe in this ending, which is why they're not afraid to get their hands dirty.

Outside of their contract with Rory, Aspen and Crowe have pretty chill lives. Crowe is glad that he can now explore more aside from just Winter Hollow and that he can even get information from the internet with Aspen's help.

Aspen themselves works as a graphic designer and enjoys their free time reading lots of books & comics as well as spending time with Crowe.

You could think of these two as sort of a villain couple in this ending!

- - -

As for the Sweet Ending, just like how Crowe and Aspen collect stuff from the victims of the blizzards in the Twisted ending, Crowe did much of the same before he met Aspen.

My idea is that his pantry is not only a storage for food but also a place where he sometimes puts away stuff that might come in handy at some point. This is how they're able to fix Aspen's flat tire and eventually travel back to Silvering City.

I don't think that they'd stay in Silvering City for very long, though. As Aspen mentions in this ending, they quit their office job to do something they really wanted.

Aspen is really good at graphic design and online marketing, so I think they would most probably be a freelance graphic designer (similar to the Twisted Ending). As for Crowe's job, he'd be an Investigative Nature Researcher who writes books on the matter (like encyclopedias on nature, for instance) which would include his doodles too (similar to the book on crows he made).

In addition, Aspen and Crowe not only have their own jobs, but they also work together on the side by selling wild tea. They combine Crowe's knowledge of foraging & nature with Aspen's expertise on graphic design & online marketing to make this possible (the official artbook even has a short mini comic on the matter).

As for where they would live once they settle everything? I'd like to think it'd be someplace outside of Silvering City. Crowe and Aspen prefer colder temperatures so I think they'd like to be somewhere where it doesn't get too hot.

I sort of have an idea of where that would be but I want to save the surprise in case they make a cameo in another game, hehe.

Their relationship in this ending is the most healthy and the one where I can truly say that they're truly in love with each other. Just like Aspen told Crowe, they can't fix him and he can't fix them.

They gotta sort out their demons on their own (with therapy, meditation or what they feel works the best for them).

The lesson here is that they're not alone, they got each other and they can have a good life and relationship by having good communication and keeping each other company.

- - -

On a separate note, Crowe and Aspen keep investigating the strange "eternal winter" in both of these endings; though I personally consider the Sweet Ending to be the canon one.

The answer to what causes the strange weather, though, will most probably be answered in another game with other characters in the far future 👀

Thank you for the questions, these were fun to answer! 😊💖

I'VE BEEN HOLDING BACK. . .

This year has been different. My approach has changed. My relationship with the internet continues to change. My spirit messages have mostly been about these bountiful blessings that are waiting for us if we continue to stay focused, positive and aligned with what we KNOW is best for us. Yet, I haven't experienced this crazy abundance that I channel messages on. So far this year, personally, I've witnessed incremental improvements that result from meditated decisions and perseverance, the continued strengthening of my intuition, an increased understanding of what it means to be free and the necessity of sharing the burden of survival, purpose and roles that we need fulfilled in our lives

(all things that I could tie back to astrological themes of 2024 if you , the reader wished me to...)

This year I have experienced blessings no doubt, but in some form or fashion I've put in work for it! At times I've had to choose the lesser of evils. I've had to sacrifice. To be blunt, this year hasn't been easy, in fact it is another year of cyclical negative events that keep replaying in my life over and over with a few new things trickled in. These events and things that I describe below have been hard, but necessary periods of GROWTH and clearance of my heart & mind to see my OPEN ROADS. On this spiritual platform I've shown up in ways that convey ease. . . at least from my POV. . . and I believe it's from YEARS of practicing one of my major life lessons :

Mastering Inner Peace.

For God, wishes me to understand that my response is really what matters the most. This summer was my 5th year in a row and my 3rd summer being unemployed. As a creator, I continue to put myself out in the open ,spiritually and otherwise, selling physical and intangible products or services. I do not like to do anything under the guise of sympathy because, people drag you for anything, but especially when you express emotional weight and impacts that people, life and circumstances have on you. I'm often overlooked, denied, robbed, copied, discredited, ridiculed and unsupported despite my efforts to be consistently present and good in many areas. Since 2020, I've had to start my life over a few times. I've been living in abysmal isolation because it's been the safest for me mentally and emotionally while fighting depression and learning how to stay emotionally regulated as a very energetically sensitive person. The internet has been a way to help me stay sane and feel connected to people that I otherwise have no knowledge or connection to. The internet has helped me bridge gaps of loneliness, isolation, pain and more that I've suffered over the years, but I've also come to see the toll it takes on the heart and mind. When I log off and nobody is there, I'm still unemployed, my ideas are not taking off no matter how much I post (mostly because majority of people following me refuse to support in any form besides ghost following) and I have to face reality fully.. that shit is tough! I've been tip-toeing around this topic for years because how can I address the threats of social media addiction and the distortion of reality it creates when we're literally all online doing the same things???? How can I address this as a problem when it seems that maybe, this is the "new normal" : being stuck inside screens & programmed. Spirit told me it's time to start having that conversation, out loud, as much as I need to talk about it, in as many posts as I feel necessary.

A REBIRTH . . .

is on the horizon and it begins Spring 2025 when Saturn shifts from Aquarius into Pisces. A major part of this REBIRTH is coming back into our bodies and our emotional and physical reality, which includes logging off our apps and social sites to be IN PERSON with ourselves and one another. There's a disconnect that we will have to work to fix in the near future. Is this post or the topics that are discussed in these videos to demonize the internet or other topics discussed for that matter? NO.

It's to help restore balance, sound the alarm, and prepare for what's to come. It's also for me, for my own healing.

I've been holding back at times, when it comes to talking about my life struggles and how the internet (mostly the people on it tbh) make me feel physically sick and mentally distorted. This is mostly because I personally don't think people want to hear that. People would rather escape the truth than to face it, The internet gives us equal opportunity to do that. So don't bring your issues or serious thoughts to the internet! *sarcasm* The internet is a portal, its juju, its magik and it will work against us and we will work against each other if we are not using it with balance and intention...

Asteria Lesson~ July 18 2024 (tw for murder)

last night i had so many dreams. I usually get 2 or 3 a night (that i can remember) but tonight i got over 8 that i can remember. Almost all of them started the same way, i was put into a school, and given free reign of whatever i wanted to do. Now, i wouldn't say i was lucid dreaming at this point, more so, i was playing a role in my own dream if that makes sense. in almost all of the dreams, i went on to murder as much of the school as i possibly could, and i remember in my dream not understanding why i did this, and why i KEPT doing it.

Well, in the last dream i had, i seemed to realize that i do in fact, have full control over what i do and can decide to not muder people and be miserable and hate myself as a result of that. So in this last dream, i spent it all having the time of my life, taking a tour of the school, making friends, etc.

When i woke up, i had the overwhelming urge to make a smoothie for breakfast instead of my usual sugary cereal, and to meditate. This is very productive and healthy for me, as i am usually a very lazy person.

What i take away from all of this, is to cut out negative influences in my life. i have control over myself and what i interact with, so if something makes me miserable, i can cut it out. I also realize that i may be taking in way too much negative energy from social media and T.V, even if i dont mean to.

TLDR; stop watching so many true crime shows and stop being chronically online, because its not good for your mental. And also get rid of things that make you upset.

for @bunnwich - Jan 19 * reference is this post cause i have a big ole birthday encyclopedia. post is not original thoughts. excerpts will be cited.

January 19th The Birthday of Originality | "I see the world in a grain of sand."

Life Lesson: Coping with routine and boring details. The Way Forward: To understand that the devil (and the potential for success) is often in the detail. Luck Maker: Find out what you love to do and what you are good at. Then think about how you can use your passion and talents to help others.

January 19-born are often honest and direct, with a genuine appreciation for beauty. There is an endearing, sometimes childlike, energy and wonder about them; they are blessed with genuine originality. Independent and free-spirited, they really don't care too much what people think and don't take well to rules and being told what to do, so they often rebel with immature behavior. Even if they appear respectable, they soon show what truly unique individuals they are, as anyone who gets to know them soon appreciates. Destined to shine brightly and attract others to them like magnets, they become unhappy if they try to repress their originality. Born movers and shakers, they tend to do better in solitary positions but can work well in groups that allow them to freely use their imagination. The fields of literature, art, engineering and science appeal , and they may be drawn to sports or other physical types of work, as well as careers as experts, advisors and consultants. They can be engaging online experts and video or social media influencers. Bursting with energy, they need to pace themselves: otherwise they risk depression or burning out, so positive thinking and practicing meditation and yoga is strongly advised. For self care, think like a solo mountain climber. Don't underestimate the value of the small and steady steps you need to take to succeed. At the end of the day ask yourself if you gave everything you did that day your very best. Prone to extremes, these people make intense lovers and need a partner who can keep them balanced and give them the occasional reality check. They are intuitive and can often sense what others miss, but it isn't until their early thirties that the emphasis moves towards nurturing their inner life, and herein lies the secret of their success as they age. Once they learn to rather than repress their intuition, and pay attention to the small as well as the big things, their destiny is to inspire others with highly original ideas and make an unforgettable and often exceptional impact on the world.

i agree with your post with the three bullet points and it's something a lot of people from my community need to be hearing. but there's one bit im having a hard time with due to things i've seen online.

specifically the "the idea that palestinian liberation = carrying out a genocide on israelis is nothing more than baseless, racist, orientalist fearmongering" bit. the issue is that i keep seeing people online effectively calling for this or an ethnic cleansing of people who have already been refugees, saying they wouldn't blame palestinians if they forced everyone off the land / that all israelis must unhouse themselves or be complicit in genocide / that what happened on october 7th isn't a tragedy in any way, shape or form.

im leaning into antizionism more and more and undoing the rhetoric i was raised with, but that last bit gets me. i know people, people very dear to me, who easily could've died that day.

do you really think the liberation of palestine as led by hamas wouldn't necessitate a massacre dwarfing oct 7th, and would end with a state where people of all religions can actually live side by side without intimidation or violence? if so, id really want to hear how/why you think that's possible. this isn't meant to bait you - i really do want to understand some of the povs im having more trouble with and grow from it. thanks, and take care of yourself.

hi, i addressed many of these points here.

+ there is this from Mohammed Zraiy from Dispactches from Gaza:

MZ: We are human—we don’t want to kill, we don’t want to die, we just want to live. Destiny so willed it that when deciding which land to colonize (to use Herzl’s frame), the early Zionist fathers chose Palestine instead of the other lands they were considering stealing (to use Ben-Gurion’s frame). For 75 years, agents of this settler colonial project have been working to ethnically cleanse us from our lands, and couldn’t care less even about international law that is biased in Zionism’s favor, let alone about human rights (or, as the colony’s government described us, “animal” rights). A people under occupation has only three options: To resist, to resist, and to resist. It’s the settler colonization of Palestine that I wish had never happened, not our reaction to it.

MZ: Unlike what they’ve been told, we’ve never had a problem with Jews. Jews have been part of the fabric of our society way before the establishment of Israel. In fact, Jews escaping European persecution found refuge in Palestine. Gaza had a Jewish quarter. They were living peacefully, not with Arabs but as Arabs, right up until 1948. The establishment of Israel didn’t protect Jews; it caused the divide and danger. The solution is to roll back and dismantle the colony. My message to the colonizers who left their home countries to occupy our lands is simply to go back home. As for those who were born here, my message is: You are secondary victims of this colonial project. You are being used to occupy other people’s lands, and your Jewishness is being politicized for colonial means. Meditate carefully on the examples of South Africa, Angola, Algeria—they may not apply wholesale to the settler colonization of Palestine, but they hold lessons for you. Today you must make a choice: Either support this deadly colonial project, or side against it by supporting the liberation of Palestine and the establishment of a democratic state that liberates Palestinians, as well as Jews, from Zionism. A state that will honor the right of Palestinian refugees to return and compensation and that will welcome and protect its Jews as citizens of Palestine. This transition from Zionism to democracy will not cost anyone’s life; it will cost you your colonial privileges, and will free you—and us, its primary victims—from colonialism.

Course Description

In this four-part audio course, best-selling author Michael Drake teaches about the power of shamanic drumming to improve well-being, promote spiritual growth and deepen our understanding of the inner self. Shamanic drumming is a form of repetitive rhythmic drumming. Its purpose is to induce ecstatic trance states in order to access innate wisdom and guidance. The essence of shamanism is the experience of direct revelation from within. Shamanism is about remembering, exploring and developing the true self. Shamanic practice heightens the ability of perception and enables you to see into the deeper realms of the self. Once connected with your inner self, you can find help, healing and a continual source of guidance. To practice shamanism is to reconnect with your deepest core values and your highest vision of who you are and why you are here.

Drawing from 30 years of shamanic practice and teaching, Michael presents the first practical guide to applying this ancient healing art to our modern lives. Through a series of simple lessons and exercises, he teaches the basic shamanic methods of drumming, journeying, power practice and healing the earth. You will learn how to alter your state of consciousness to access higher wisdom, renewed power and untapped insight. There are no prerequisites to learning shamanic drumming. Whether you are an accomplished percussionist or a total beginner, this course will help you harness the power of drumming. You can listen to the introduction and read the course outline here.
