The top of Mt. Rubidoux - we took a day hike up here, but didn't know where the entrance was. So we walked around the side streets, found some random back way that involved some impromptu/inexperienced rock climbing/sliding/panicking (I was the only one panicking). _ I got dead skinny tree branches up my nose, an assortment of foliage in my eyes, and a nice couple of scratches on my shin. We arrived to the paved trail hoisting ourselves over the side of the mountain to onlookers who chose to take the safe, easy, branchless route, and I was definitely swearing as Justin shoved my ass up so I could grab hold of a rock. You guys, the trails in this mountain are PAVED. _ But we found a more interesting shortcut. And nobody ever said the shortcuts were Easy. _ That's essentially how this move feels. We didn't plan appropriately, so we made our own way to get there. To be honest, we're still climbing to that paved road. And the footing is NOT all solid--like, a tire exploded on the freeway and hit our van and now we need to replace two windows and a door. As if the move itself wasn't already expensive enough😂. But hey. It's Interesting, right?! _ The key in moments like these is having faith in not only your ability to keep going, but to know that you're on your way to well...something. Maybe that something is still nebulous. Maybe it just looks like a paved road for now, and you're not even sure if you give a shit about the top of that mountain. But you believe it gets better. _ Believe it will get better.
Made it! It's warm. It's so pretty. The mountains blow me away every time I see them. The town is fucking adorable, and I can't wait to explore every nook and cranny. _ Moving makes you reconsider everything. It's pretty much the first day of the rest of your life, and the energy is Palpable. I'm still working through all of that, still journaling, still getting used to these new sensations on my old soul. I'm shedding and stretching and reminding myself to breathe through the myriad thoughts. Pulling myself back into routines to keep me grounded, breaking out the palo santo and tarot cards and notebooks to keep track of Me. _ Because a chunk of me is very detached from what has just transpired. I know it's due to sensory overload, I know it's to protect my primal desires for habit, and I know it'll all come back to me. But I can't help but feel like my top onion layers were ripped from me; I'm feeling very exposed and confused and exhilarated. _ I don't even know if that made sense, but I kinda don't care. Let's see what happens, yeah?
This is, by far, the most bittersweet Halloween. _ The House is in disarray as we work to get everything packed up, so no fun decor. Oh and it fucking SNOWED. You see that shit? Meanwhile, our destination is surrounded by fire; Not our new home, but close enough to "feel the heat", as it were. _ I mean, we said we wanted to be warm, didn't we? It's like the Universe was like, "I'll show you how to be grateful as fuck for all the things, little human." _ Man, we'd better be. 😅 BUT, we chose to move at this time. At the height of the high-fire-risk dry season in California. At probably one of the most unpredictable times of year in the Midwest (I definitely recall spending a couple Halloweens in Illinois without even a jacket). In the midst of my favorite Holiday, when I tend to feel most grounded. We chose to uproot and throw ourselves into the chaos of this time of year. _ And that's just the chaos of nature. I haven't even mentioned the Human part of all of this. 😂 From the moment we decided to go through with this move, every human flaw and emotion (known or unknown) has been thrown in my face. Because who doesn't like a little deep, unexpected introspection in the midst of a massive life change? As inconvenient as it may seem, it's also necessary. What/who do I let go? What/who do I welcome into this new chapter? How will I make it happen? _ I can only assume that subconsciously, we both like a challenge or something. 🙃 But that's kind of the prerequisite for growth. _ Because if there was no struggle to get to that next level, and if you didn't feel like you worked for it, how do you ensure that you've changed yourself enough to take it on? The move we're making IS an upgrade. There's nothing lateral about deciding to push closer to our dreams. So in order to be ready for that, we need to shed the aspects of ourselves that no longer promote growth: Fear and scarcity mindsets, lack of self-belief, weak intuition. _ But first, let's just finish packing.
**Limited Time, Limited Slots!** I'm totally procrastinating on the packing thing and want to open up readings for a little bit before I trek across the country. So click the link in the bio and book with me over the next two ish weeks! _ Yes, this is a precursor to me bringing the business back once I'm all settled in the new place, loves, and I can't freaking WAIT. I have hated being largely unavailable, but I have been incubating all the ideas, and contemplating what I actually want to provide to the world. I think I've been fearfully hoarding some shit, and well...that helps no one. But more on that later! _ Anyway, ya got two weeks to get some time with me before I'm drowning in moving boxes for the next...however long it takes me to unpack my cards. Which, let's be honest, will be one of the first boxes I unpack. 😘😘😘
That moment after massive manifestation when you realize that you can just chill for a minute and let the Universe carry the weight. _ You all know that feeling... When all of the work you've been putting into your next move comes to fruition and you put your wand down and you're just like, "Take the wheel, Universe. I'm gonna nap for a minute." _ I legit live for those moments. I'm not there yet, just psyching myself up to keep it going because I know it's coming. And for those of you in a similar place, just watch this video and remind yourself that pretty soon you're gonna get the best head rub from Spirit/Your Higher Self/The Great Massaging One, w/e for sticking it out til the end. _ It's in the bag, friends.
MAGICAL AS FUCK. _ The day after my last post, we applied for our first choice apartment, and were approved! First and only place we applied for, and the issues I thought we would have apparently didn't even matter. _ Deposit has been paid, and now we just prepare to leave soon after Halloween. I won't get to celebrate my favorite Holiday as hard as normal, but I'm quite all right missing it for this. _ A million "thank you"s have been said to my ancestors, the universe, my higher self, the great flying spaghetti monster, et al. Don't ever let anyone tell you manifesting is bullshit. It's only bullshit if you're pushing for something you're not certain about, that you know doesn't really fit you. Otherwise, the way is Made. Because it's Yours. _ That's It.
