From Seed to Bloom, A Message From the Moon

It’s literally been almost three months since I wrote an update here. Major shifts happened in my creative focus due to incredible opportunities coming into my world. I’ve been successful in every way, but also under a lot of stress. And most likely because of stress, I’ve been sick a lot this year. Fever dreams have spurred some sudden revelations. Breaking points were reached. Necessary decisions were made. This all had to happen for me to grow further into my best potential.

Going from a seed to a fully bloomed flower is a TOTAL transformation. Tonight’s full flower moon reminds us of this strenuous, delicate process.

I’ve been surrounding myself with flowers to lift myself up lately. These fuchsia buds are about to explode open and the hummingbirds are going to love them.

Exploring Shadows

When I talk about exploring our shadow selves (digging up dark deep traumas that made us respond the way we do to certain things), this practice; this transformation process is exactly what I’m referring to. And it is a practice.

Tonight’s full blood flower moon + lunar eclipse during Mercury Retrograde combo is going to force a lot of things to the surface whether we like it or not. Time to get rid of what’s holding us back from the next phase to make room for new growth.

To be honest, I feel like this lunar moment, for me, is actually the closure to a whole three month period of this process. I might be sipping dandelion tea hoping this is the last day I’ll feel like complete feverish crap, but I know there’s a lot of magical forward motion just out of this harsh bend.

Lady J’s Dandelion Tea Blend is coming back to the shop soon!

Here are some things I can share that took place during the last three chaotic months:

Thank you for reading my update. I’m hoping to get out to some in-person events soon with my Lady J products. Until then, take care of yourself. And take care of one another.
