one thing i find sweet is that i seem to be apollo-coded from the day i was born. i was born on a sunday (im also a july baby), and at a time that was when the sun was at it's peak -- and then later in life i grew obsessed with herbology and homesteading and especially divination.

greek mythology didn't come to me until much later, but i like to think that it was only a matter of time before i started worshipping apollo, lol, especially considering the obsessions i had with lyres and harps (and to be honest, that obsession is still there)

i grew up writing poems and songs about the sun and napping in the sun and just lying outside in the sun; could that have been he himself reaching out to me? guess we'll never know (at least until i ask)

anyways, what ive been trying to say this whole time, is apollo i love you <3

it is once again 11 pm and i have once again talked with apollo, but this time with my beloved pendulum :) we had a tiny clash where i asked apollo if he had any nicknames for me, he panicked and said yes and then started spelling out some random ass name?? and so i asked him if he was making it up as he went and he just went 'yes :(' so then i suggested we look for a nickname together lmao we did, and i LOVED elio while apollo was obsessed with solaris so we flipped a coin 3 times (we kept squabbling) and solaris won. to be fair, its kinda growing on me

i wrote this at 11 pm, so disregard any misspellings, because i was writing this super fast! if you knew me, you'd know i have a notoriously bad time meditating. or like channeling any type of spirit or deity.

like. terrible at it.

however!! ive finally made progress. i did a guided meditation that was around 7 mins and cut to the chase, and within like 3 or 4 minutes i was visualizing apollo and we were talking pretty casually (more like i was crying on his shoulder like a fussy baby).

i was in the middle of asking a question before the meditation pulled me out, but that was my fault because i didnt pause the video for more time lol

as always, right after the meditation, i went straight to my on-hand tarot spread (the yes/no tarot from astrology.com) and second guessed myself around 5 times, during each of which the tarot spread and cards that i was pulling were roasting me constantly for doubting myself and basically said 'stop being a dumb bitch, yves' so i did 😊😊 <- the face of someone who has not stopped being a dumb bitch

anyways, yeah! that was my first positive meditation experience lol
