lately I’ve been verbally expressing how much i value and respect myself and my confidence has gone up 1000000%. i feel cute, loved, smart and like i finally have my head on straight. 

sometimes i actually can’t believe the shit i used to say to myself even when it was just in my head. no wonder it led me to suuuuch toxic behavior and while i hate that i’ve hurt ppl i care(d) about, that was my journey and it led me here. 

i’m definitely not perfect now but im growing and i’m so damn proud of myself!!

Things to do after a new moon

just some things i do every new moon, thought it would be nice to share:

CLENSE EVERYTHING Your bed sheets, phone screen, crystals, tarot/oracle cards, chakras. it’s a rebirth – start with a fresh slate and really dig out the nitty gritty cobwebs, air out the laundry. there’s a lot of potential energy brewing, and cleansing allows for full potential to be realized.

SELF CARE like i said above, it’s a rebirth and that means a new you. reflect on the past lunar cycle: what have you realized about yourself? what was difficult? what was easy? what was blah? take note of all of these things – journal, meditate or both. drink an extra glass of water, make some peppermint tea and really feel yourself come alive.

PLAY WITH YOUR CARDS the tarot is all about new beginnings and harnessing new energy. play around with some fun new spreads – really tap into that third eye. ask what can you learn this lunar cycle? what should be left behind?

consent through fear is not consent

[r-grimes]

let’s repeat that again:

consent through fear is not consent

[platonic-suggestion]

And while we’re at it:

consent through guilt is not consent either

[naked-yogi]

if some of y'all honestly believe this isn’t true (I know some people do, mostly men, because I’ve posted about this before and gotten such opposition against it), consider the fact that it’s literally illegal CONSENT DOES NOT ALWAYS INVOLVE THE WORD NO you can ~not~ say no and still be raped or sexually assaulted

It’s almost as if nobody wants to admit that they might not be prepared to do the work it takes to love somebody. And it can be laborious. To be intimate with someone who is flawed (which is the standard) requires us to expose our own flaws. We don’t talk about the heavy responsibility of that. We don’t talk about how we’re too lazy or too cowardly sometimes. We instead accuse love of being elusive. It isn’t. It is omnipresent. It asks us to be better people. And sometimes we flat out refuse.

you have this idea in your head that the only time you’re worthy of being loved is when you’re at your best. you’re still worthy of being loved when you’re at your lowest. you’re still worthy of being loved when you don’t want to go on anymore. you are still worthy of being loved even when you don’t love yourself. you are a human and therefore always worthy of being loved and don’t you fool yourself into thinking otherwise.
