Hurt or Heal

Humanity is at an amazing time right now. Energy readers can sense the uptick of varying levels. Many of us have to be extra careful of health, nutrition, stress levels, and forms of relaxation because so much is going on that it is wondrous how all of us are still going strong. In fact, it is incredible! There is so much happening in and around the world, it is wise to simply ride the wave and breathe. Now is an extraordinary time to witness all that nature, environment, and humanity have to offer, such as unity through communication, natural disasters, and even our atmosphere. Our world is changing! We can either hurt from it or heal from it.

A lot of people are connected through the internet, and though it is fantastic, it can be both influential and a distraction. So many of us push for "likes" and "❤️" that some are willing to reveal themselves to the point of being naked or act in a shocking manner just so others can see them, and really, who can blame them when some can get thousands, tens of thousands, and even a million likes or followers? Technology is definitely changing the way humans interact and view each other.

With so much information and forms of commerce happening, it is no surprise that many can hurt or heal from pains which deal with self-value, self-worth, and even self-care. Not only is there an exchange of ideas and opinions, (especially, opinions!) there is also a global community which can either be cooperative or competitive. Most often, on social media, one can tell that a lot of users are cooperative in exchanging their crafts and ideas online for free or a trade. Many often sell things for cheap and/or reuse clothing, furniture, and jewelry in comparison to purchasing new and expensive stuff. Although there is freedom to promote one's crafts on the internet, it appears promoted or sponsored messages are given priority in showing up on a person's social media feed and this dilutes a cooperative sense of community.

One can either hurt or heal from barriers and/or ideas exchanged online. Though more people are staying in touch through electronic means and utilizing it to purchase items or exchange ideas, it is necessary to not only keep in touch with the real world, but also to not rely on such electronic usage. It is wise to stay grounded and take care of one's immediate and surrounding environment. There is so much indirect interaction, production and overflowing systems installed all over many developed countries that it would be smart to notice what goes on around one's space of living. How many really notice the trees and birds? How many notice natural settings vs. artificial ones? Is the air around one's surroundings healthy or moderate? It is important to know these things for self-care and self-worth because most of us want a healthy environment and a strong sense of community which strives to have its people work with one another. Again, a lot of us can either hurt or heal from various events happening all over the world, but it would be greater to heal one's self and each other for the sake of our purpose and humanity. Let us love one another and heal from any and all hurt, even if some need more time than others. It is finally time to heal!

Letting Go!

This Gregorian New Year has been about Letting Go!

Though some might say, "It is written in the stars," when it comes to Astrology, this may be true for most when applied to the concept of self-care and healing. The theme has been about, Letting Go! Though many believe a lot of us are at a pivotal point in time, there are moments when one must let go of that which no longer serves him or her, or that of a past which had continued to haunt him or her.

Self-healing really is about accepting what is and working with what one must do in order to move forward. In these fast-moving, technical times, doing so may cause some anxiety, depression, or even anger when it comes to any type of change. After all, change is scary but sometimes necessary. It is important that some of us are honest toward our own self and that we also have the courage to either build something new, or simply, Let Go!

Perhaps the time has come for many of us to Let Go of what was and embrace that which will be. We should take time to finish healing, take a deep breath, and then release it! Let it ALL Go - all that which no longer serves YOU!


Best Wishes in this New Year!

Goddess

It is the Fall Season in the northern hemisphere and it is wise to Give Thanks to Goddesses. A goddess is a phenomenal woman who stands for peace, justice, harmony, beauty, nurturance, and longevity - just to start! Such women appear impeccable because they once over-sought the harvest, the planting/grounding, the growing, the nurturance, and the civility of harmonious living. Sure, running households, plantations, animals, and even beautiful areas are attributed to strong and dedicated women of the Greek Goddess' period, which should remind humanity of how the feminine side brings an equal value to various ways of living. Not only that, women also grow a live-being within their body in order to perpetuate mankind. Also, nature pushes for the feminine. The X-factor is divinely provided as a means to living one's true and beautiful nature - emotional, fragile, and harmonious as it can and cannot be. After all, nature is also destructive, dutiful, and rigid. It is not to say that the male counterpart brings these traits - rather, it is a fusion of opposing energies (be it feminine or masculine) which brings various "good vs. bad" traits - nature does not discriminate. Still, when one thinks of the nurturing part of nature, it is often attributed to the feminine, whereas the more aggressive nature is attributed to the masculine. Therefore, we must honor the feminine and the divinely-driven Goddesses who continue to perpetuate the harmonious parts of living - that even in the most horrid of situations, one may still carry a spark of beauty within.

Thank you, Goddesses!

NEW

A brand new day,  a brand new start!

This is how I feel about turning this blog into something new. To be able to write about issues I most care about is liberating and what I believe is a significant contribution to society in a smart and reasonable way. Sure, I cannot address every issue I care about with regards to humanity and our planet, but I have always been a woman of words. Supposedly, women are more verbal and thoughtful. We are supposed to care more through nurturance, emotions, and hormones. Whatever the case may be as to why females tend to be more motherly (than not,) I am glad my outlet is through writing. I love to write and I hope many will join me in thoughtful contemplation.


Thank you in advance for reading my work! Feel free to comment on any post or page, but please be respectful.
