Beauty Alchemy: Color Symbolism

All magic starts in the mind. I’ve come to learn over the years that colors are extremely powerful in helping you direct your energy towards a certain goal or outcome.

WHEN DO YOU USE COLOR MORE THAN WHEN YOU PUT ON MAKEUP?

(Real artists, don’t answer that lol).

Keep in mind that none of the representations for each color below are hard and fast rules. Seek within yourself to see if you resonate with the descriptions below:

So, when I decide to craft my makeup for the day, I often have to decide on a lot of things. Most times, this involves selecting colors.

Below I list the various colors and what they can represent.

BLACK- banishing, creation, transformation

BROWNS- earth energy, growth, stability, grounded

REDS-energy, fire, power, love, lust, action

ORANGES-creativity, joy, youth, 

YELLOWS- learning,sunshine, hope, intellect

GREENS-wealth, abundance, growth

BLUES-calm, relaxed, flowing

INDIGOS-spirituality, self-mastery

VIOLETS-wisdom, regality

WHITE-purity, cleansing, newness

Dear Introverted Classroom Teacher...

I KNOW your favorite part of the day is that measly hour of planning where you can sit in your dark classroom and contemplate life. It's all good!! Take that time for YOU, boo. I know I will.

[glamloc]

Your mind is like a divine suitcase. You should only fill it with things you want to see...

Happy Friday, Love Day!

For the Self Help Junky

*Remember that the 5-foot-tall stack of books telling you how to improve yourself are JUST TOOLS. Use them. And think about it…Does the plunger unclog the toilet? Or does the plumber do it? Hmm? Books can be used to guide your mind, but they can’t change it.

*Those fifty million books you downloaded on your Kindle can’t save you.

*Watching just one more YouTube clip won't save you. *Counseling can definitely help you, but if you grow too dependent, have you truly been helped? *Ask yourself: What is self help without the power of the self? W

*You already have truth within you. Realize this and be free.

Relationships: Square Up

So…

Tonight I took myself on a date just because. It felt needed. Naturally, I’m having some real epiphanies and one of them is about relationships. (Because I think about them so much).

There are professional fights playing on TV tonight. I’ve never been fond of fighting. I’ve reached a new paradigm though.

When I look at the fighters, I’m now just reading the exchange of energy. There are some facts that come up:

1. Vulnerability always presents a chance for you to get hurt. 2. In order to stay in the game, in order to become a skilled fighter, you must continuously get stronger. 3. There is no room for long periods of comfort. At least if you want to stay in the game.

How is this not the summation of every relationship you’ve ever had?

Relationships aren’t innately good or bad. They are whatever you make them mean.

You just have to remember that nothing is merely surface based, and you can win. You AND your partner can.

Today I’m deciding that relationships are the opportunity for me to open my mind and continue defining my evolving self through my experiences.

It’s fun when you realize you’re always changing. Always growing.

Anything is possible.

Teaching has taught me the innate value of children. Many of us view them as too much work, too ignorant and unknowing, and even useless. However the truth of the matter is that children are seeds of pure potentiality.  The only question becomes, what are we watering them with?

you might be a taurus moon if...

🐂 you are highly uncomfortable with big changes and will do most anything to avoid them. you often find yourself putting up with unsatisfactory circumstances just to avoid having to make waves in your life

🐂 you love to spend, and love to be surrounded by material items. you often find yourself spending money on things you don’t even need, or may never use, just because having more “stuff” satisfies you. you begin to feel unsettled if you haven’t indulged in a while

🐂 you strongly dislike conflict and detest being surrounded by it. you are the last to mediate fighting friends; in fact, you’ll probably just avoid them until things blow over a bit

🐂 you will stand by your ways and won’t allow anyone to tell you to do differently, even if their suggestions may be helpful. you’d rather do things the old way than the faster way

🐂 you are very romantic and enjoy the finer things in life. you’re the first to make reservations for valentine’s day or host a romantic dinner in your home. your style of loving can best be described as “sensual”

🐂 you like to put your relationships to the test, however. you may go a whole day without sending your usual “good morning” text just to see if your lover will text you on their own. watch yourself on this! though you’re simply trying to ensure the endurance of your relationship, others may perceive it as petty

The indulgence and loving to spend? GUILTY....

Man, this is an intriguing title. My colleagues and I are reading the text: "Fostering Resilient Learners: Strategies for Creating a Trauma Sensitive Classroom" Maybe I can get some tips on healing my own trauma, too eh? 😉
