Poor enough to still pay attention!
Emerge: One can always make something good or bad emerge out of combining some existing ingredients. Blobism is the belief that humans are nothing more than a bunch of cells put together, the true entity of humanity and the one I believe in is that of being image bearers made to be stewards and work on that cultural mandate with the God given talents that we were given. Who we are today is shaped by previous experiences and what we want to pursue, although many times we tend to conform to society’s expectations and prefer to meet them rather than following our personal goals.
How artists explore identity: self portraits by Frida Kahlo that represented her true reality. Run away series made by using the adjectives used to describe the artist. America wanted to see something different so in 1962 Marilyn Monroe’s portrait became a reproduction of a reproduction.
Exploring the myth of the scientific vs. artistic mind: assigning a convergent and divergent label to each human became a stereotype, not only because not all people are the same, but also because studies have shown that we all use both sides of the brain.
The Myth of the Starving Artist and Other Misconceptions about Creativity: It is a myth that in order to be an artist one has to starve, because it is impossible to make a living amount of money. Society imposes these ideas as we become adults that by the time we are in the “real world” we truly believe this. Steps to overcome these misconceptions: let go of the starving artist stereotype, use the advantages of art to earn the attention of an audience, use money as means, not as master.
Cause cinnamon is cute and this is all the money on my bank account, ha.

The weekly reading The 4 of swords A very important part of magickal practices is the part where we let go of the work where we almost abandon it. This can take place in the form of meditation or just a simple walk away from all what you have to care for or have worked to achieve. Keep that in mind next week ten minutes away from everything can be exactly what you need to provide yourself fully to what can require your attention. May chaos be your authority! #relaxationtechniques #méditation #tarotreadingsofig #readingoftheweek (at Leipzig, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFmfYsWqwIk/?igshid=1h87rpp5xgvaf

Complacency Must Die at the hands of Whirlwinds and Thunderbolts
In ritual there is great power…
Every Sunday after servicing my ancestors and spirits, I consult the oracle for the energy of the week. I do this not only for myself, but for anyone who may cross my path. As we know, the universe is reciprical. Those we come into contact with reflect some aspect of our being. So in my weekly consultation, it is my intention to extend a message that will resonate with all.
XVI Deluge (The Tower) March 10-17
For many of us change can be the most difficult to embrace, but is the most necessary, reoccurring part of life’s cycle. Natural is the metamorphosis into our higher self. Along the journey of ascension, there will be many deaths. Through this, we are defining our selves by chipping away everything we are not, in order to reveal who we are. Depending on your angle of view, change can be met with a graceful dance, like butterflies on winds OR can be met like a resisting army, in defense of what holds us chained to the ground.
Seek a higher vision, SACRIFICE IS TO MAKE SACRED.
Our complacency is the worst enemy to elevation. Fear of the unknown. Uncertainty of what waits us on the other side of our situation. Fear is stagnation and has no place in the presence of the living. The journey is never-endingly progressive. In a personal recession, a failure to heed our spirit’s call to the quest; our higher self and spirits band together to do what we refuse. We become the vehicle as they aggressively take the wheel and drive us to the doorway of our turning point. Destroying everything that must go.
YOUR SPIRITS TAKE ACTION AND MAKE THE CHANGE FOR YOU.
All that we thought was, is no more; our ‘realities’ become null and void and truth is made born. Suddenly the outer world reflects the inner. You have been blinded by darkness of the thunderbolt. In one swift move the storm has destroyed illusions that bind you to darkness, lighting the epiphanies of revelation. External and Internal earthquakes destroy ALL and there you stand at ground zero. The only thing that is left rooted is the true and living.
The vantage point is different here.
This is the view of the twilight zone; doorway to rebirth. The soil is fertile over there. Its time for creation. No longer shall we cling to the dust and debris of who we once were. Rebirth and Transformation require the wombs WATER where we are made CLEAN. “To resist the water is to cling to dust.” The womb and the tomb are one in the same. Embrace the death of what you are not and find the key to immortality.
Contemplations and General Meaning:
The energy of change. Oya & Shango. Destruction to bring balance. Inevitable grand change brought on by the spirit. A call to action that brings progress and most of all revelations and new perspective. This can be gentle if embraced, with no resistance. Assume the witness posture, allow yourself to get a THIRD eye view of the situation aiding in digestion of deeper the message. Creative energies heightened. In solitude there is great clarity. Revelations.
Be Encouraged. Be Blessed.
