    is it too late to post my bday pics? 👀 yes? wel is it too late to post my bday pics? 👀 yes? well here they are anywayyyy lol. I’m a Libra, but my Venus is in Scorpio (that’s why I’m so damn intense lol) and today is my Venus Return! *applause* 😂 

“What is a Venus Return?” you ask? A Venus Return is what happens when Venus orbits around to the exact degree it was on your birthday. The orbit changes a bit, so it’ll be a different day each year. It’s significant because the things that happen on the days surrounding and on your Venus Return will tell you how your love life, finances, artistic craft, and overall feelings about yourself will be for the next year. So, today, I’ve been focused on self-care and doing things I love to do! This is to set myself up to have a better and deeper sense of love for myself in the coming year! If you’re interested in looking yours up, the website, astro-seek.com has a Planetary Return Calculator (google) and you can get prepared for your next Venus Return! 

Good things to do: work on things you’re the most fearful of and learn to embrace it, take yourself out, do hobbies, buy yourself things, take a bath, go on dates w/ good people, etc 🥰😍❤️ have fun loving yourself!

    It’s my birthday...again lol. 🎈 this past yea It’s my birthday...again lol. 🎈 this past year has been a surprisingly great year because I’m happy to say the person I was when you last saw me is now gone. Not completely, but the parts of me that were hurting, sad, and that were filled with self-hatred are gone. For such a long time I associated receiving attention with pain, so when I got it, I would find ways to sabotage it or mentally attack myself for it. In these photos and in so many others, I was just soo entirely unhappy, that I would habitually pick myself apart even when there was nothing wrong. It was like I couldn’t function properly at times because I had so much I never fully addressed about myself - the way I was treated and the way I treated others. I put so many people before myself and expected that to be considered friendship or love and it wasn’t. I was rude or callous and didn’t think about the other people involved. But in 2020, I isolated myself before it was mandatory to and I dedicated the time I spent alone toward my own healing process. And suddenly, with effort, I finally let go of the self-hatred I had held onto for so many years. I didn’t like any part of who I was for a very long time. I had an extremely negative relationship with my body and my mind and my own light. But this year forced me to be honest about that. And once I was, I was able to rebuild the parts I didn’t like into so much more. I can honestly say I enjoy myself now. I’m really cool....and weird as hell. I’m intense af. I’m funny. I’m dramatic. I’m talented. Im a performer. I’m an artist. Im reckless. I’m an astrologer. I’mim spiritual. I’m a small (for now) business owner. I’m intelligent. I’m a lil crazy, but I’m fine with it. I’m more loving and gracious now. But I’m not a pushover. I’m not shy. I’m not intimidated. I’m not afraid. I’m determined. I’m focused. And I’m powerful as hell. I remember my divinity. I know where I’m going and I’m finally ready to make it there. I really love myself now and I’m super excited for the future. 😊❤️ thank you for reading. I love you all 💕💕

I bloom only when I am engulfed in water so salty, it tastes like candy. like taffy. like summer desperately held between the edges of your teeth. like sunlight. like a scorching fire in the sky that looks like life lives by it. like treasure. like pirates. like islands so far away, they only exist in words. salt like water. like air. like sand. like heat. like sugar. 

I am planted in salt. 

but I bloom in sugar. 

but I breathe in water.

    there comes a time where you have to be alone in o there comes a time where you have to be alone in order to unlock all of who you truly are. 

-----

these past few months in my personal life have been the most important, the most painful, and the most healing. 

-----

I stopped talking to most of the people in my contact list (even before covid), not as a way to say they did anything wrong, but as a way for me to get rid of excessive expectations that were placed on me (even if it was only my own perception of an expectation)
----
and in doing so, I've come to realize how much I needed to truly be alone. I've been practicing self-awareness for a while, but I haven't been able to truly dig into the core of my past traumas or even the source of my creativity until I allowed myself to just feel free without the added expectation of being available for other people.

 ---

allowing myself to be unavailable opened up a well of self-love that I didn't know existed before now. and it also made me acutely aware of how much of a disservice I did to myself when I stopped setting boundaries and I chose to rescue, revive, and relate to everyone, while ignoring myself. 

------

when I allowed myself the time and space to be present with only myself, I found so many emotional and creative treasures and I sped up my own healing process. I took back my power. I took back my influence. I took back my creativity. I took back my body. I found a way to celebrate my blackness in a world that wants to shame me for it. and I embraced my black-womanhood that is so often scrutinized, violated, and gaslit. and I realized through it all that saving myself meant that other people can save themselves. 

-------

log out. check out. clock out. be unapologetic about taking time for just you. I promise, you need it. and you'll be much better for it. protect your peace, especially now.  and remember, all black lives matter. ------

Please go follow and support Breea because she's definitely someone y'all will be hearing about everyone in the near future 💕

I felt super comfortable shooting with her as she has such a warmth and kind spirit. Please follow and support her as well! 🌺

I'm incredibly and thankful to have been able to work with the both of you, and I hope there'll be more projects together whenever you find your way back through Atlanta 💕 thank you ♥️
