not all women bleed between their legs. period. and perhaps that is the issue, we are so quick to assume what makes a woman, we silence all the other ways our sisters bleed. — D. Kaur @_dkaur

Hierophant + 5 of Wands The combinations of these energies invites us to question tradition and the status quo represented by the Hierophant. There may be an aspect of your life that makes you feel restricted. This could show up physically as a rigid work environment or a strained relationship with an authority figure. Internally, you may be reassessing your beliefs regarding traditional structures of relationships, career and religious practices. You may feel at odds with yourself because you have the urge to break away from expectations that don’t align with your truth. The Hierophant denotes structure, social norms and following the crowd. However, the 5 of Wands engulfs you with the desire to stand out and blaze your own path. Don’t fall victim to anyone projecting their limitations onto you. You have a firm sense of who you are and you won’t be easily swayed by the opinions of others. Pick your battles wisely when dealing with this kind of energy especially if you’re dealing with work-related drama. There may be people around that feel like they know best for you. First and foremost, it’s important that you remain in integrity with yourself. There’s no need to prove a point to someone as long as you’re true to who you are. Let that be enough and save your energy for more important things. Forearmed is forewarned so you the advantage to avoid any pointless power struggles. • • Interested in a personal reading?

Change is in the air which brings a little chaos with it. The 5 of Wands represents the unpredictable nature of life at present. Your intuition has been picking up on the approaching shift for quite some time which has resulted in a lot of anxiety, doubt and frustration. Uranus, the planet of change, is moving into Taurus on the 15th after spending the last several years in Aries. It’s important to remain flexible at this time as the cosmos are moving you away from situations that are no longer in alignment with your current vibration. The Ace of Cups extends the offer to dive into deeper union with your soul’s purpose. If you’ve been struggling with making progress in a certain area of life you’re being shown that there is another way. Embody the Uranus energy of innovation and creativity to overcome any obstacles in your life with a new approach. You can’t expect a different outcome if you keep doing the same shit. Any resistance you’re experiencing is a nudge from Spirit that you are out of alignment with your higher self. Surrender your fears of connecting with your true nature. The 5 of Wands indicates that you may fear push back from others by asserting who you really are but that should be of your least concern. This current transition is opening you up on a heart level which is activating soulmate unions as well as more meaningful opportunities and an overall deeper satisfaction with life. The 9 of Pentacles portrays the success you’re having in actualizing these experiences. Taurus season has given you the chance to reassess your values. You’re embracing yourself from a space of unconditional love by recognizing your unique imprint in the cosmos. Spirit urges you to express your genius which can result in abundance, increased status and even fame. Trust that when you are in alignment with your soul’s purpose your life will overflow with divine synchronicity, prosperity and so much love. • • • #themysticmodel #tarot #tarotpro #tarotreadersofinstagram #tarotreadersofig #divination #divinationcommunity #selfhelp #power #love #relationships #advice #guidance #blackgirlmagick #blackvoices #woc #wocvoices #witchy #witchesofinstagram #witchesofcolor

birthed on a river bank

child of water and clay

sings to the sun

small child

sleeps next to the moon

starlight kiss on her fingers

a star died on the day of her birth

a million years late to its funeral

tiny snake wraps around her wrist

and licks her pulse

her hair combed with bone and oil

fingers covered in achiote

mama sings to her

small child, birthed from the last sun

tell me of the ones who ate the first age.

in your other life,

did you meet the mothers that came before us?

mashed up corn and mother’s milk

covers her cheek

falls inside her bellybutton

hair of midnight

beloved skin

small child,

eats the mountain

spits the sea

Money matters illuminate true characters

sometimes what you mistake for love is really a sick individual liking you under their thumb. don't be grateful for their generousity, their charity supports their malignant need for fragile superiority. people who "change" when you prosper have not in fact had their emotions altered. they're just showing you what was always true. ~ Camille U. Adams

The Moon is in the bold, pioneering sign of Aries setting us ablaze to create new beginnings in life. Luna is in the waning phase making it an opportune time to release any resistance you’re experiencing. Under the influence of Aries, there may be power struggle issues triggering you on an emotional level. Use this energy to release any fears you have about standing up for yourself and owning your personal power instead of resorting to emotional outbursts. If you’re feeling any pent up aggression this is a great day to blow off some steam so hit the sauna, get in a high intensity workout or have some sexy time with your partner. Just make sure you’re not placating sex as a form of conflict resolution. The point is to own your voice under the Aries moon and be direct about the new direction you want to move in. Try your best to be patient with others under this energy as there is a tendency to be a bit self-focused. Motivate others through inspiration rather than confrontation to achieve harmony. • • • #themysticmodel #motivation #inspiration #inspirationalquotes #motivationalquotes #astrology #astrobabe #aries #ariesmoon #newbeginnings #change #divinefeminine #divinationcommunity #divination #blackgirlmagick #woc #wocvoices #goddess #glowup #esoteric #occult #metaphysical #happysaturday #saturday #selfhelp #power #womenempowerment #womenempoweringwomen #womenentrepreneurs

what if?

what if my soul has been defending me removing all the hurts I do not deserve what if my soul has been cleansing me destroying all the roads of my wrong turns what if my soul has been protecting me sidelining me out of harm's way providing me with solitude so I stop giving my power away what if my soul has been completing me when no one else did, and It saw through others' pretenses my loneliness hid from my comprised eyes what if my soul refused to let me lie anymore about where I really want to be what I am truly meant to do what if my soul has all along been saying that, "I love you". ~ Camille U. Adams

“I have become so terrified of relationships and commitment and any sort of companionship lasting more than a few sleepovers and a happy hour. It has become this pathological fear around the entire concept of giving myself to another and allowing them to introduce pieces of themselves into me. It is the fear of becoming, or believing that I have become, more whole with them than I would be without them. I would rather feel broken, alone, than whole and not own the rights to all of my pieces.” -rwkigano

Cheers to the weekend! The Moon has moved into Libra creating a positive aspect with Mercury in Gemini. You may be feeling extra chatty today with the desire to connect with others. This is a great day to hit up a happy hour with your coworkers or catch up with some friends. Enjoy the harmonious vibes afloat. You may be feeling emotionally aloof right now so hold off of any big decisions in love. In time you’ll gain a clearer understanding of what you’re feeling. Practice a little detachment this weekend and try to keep things light. • • • #themysticmodel #occult #esoteric #astrology #astrobabe #horoscope #moon #libramoon #mercury #gemini #happyfriday #friday #weekend #blackgirlmagick #fun #socialbutterfly #socialite #divination #divinationcommunity #writersofig #wocvoices #witchy #witchesofinstagram #witchesofcolor

I want to fall in love

I want to fall in love now I know love isn't: need, dependency, supplementation, their loneliness, avoidance, self-medication, guidance, their reluctance to face truth or their means to self soothe, it isn't counselling, their denial or desperation, nor is it their bid for my humiliation, it isn't their throne-toppling revenge never a way to renege their white guilt, not exoticisation, love isn't sourcing of my wisdom it isn't their elevation, need for distraction or their substance dependency, it's not for their mummy clemency, it isn't divination, Jiminy cricket gravitation nor is love education, love isn't their sexual misconceptions not a competition, nor a crutch it's never a blinding rush, it isn't molestation, cousinly connection, nor experimentation, love is not stalkerish obsession it's not argument, silences, pleading isn't doubt, my body's uncomfortable yielding love is none of the lies with which I've been plied and have spent my whole life defeating - not-love from friends, family, and lovers, not-love from an emotionally abusive mother. love is other - everything I haven't had and am committed to giving myself. I'm ready to fall in love knowing it's nothing I've already felt. ~ Camille U. Adams
