The Soul of A Woman

Happy Woman's History Month!!! Here is a poem that has inspired me greatly!

 A poem from page 13 of Isabel Allendes book, "The Soul of A Woman":

---------------

"No, quiet you are not prettier

You are gorgeous when you struggle

when you fight for what is yours

when you don't shut up

and your words bite,

when you open your mouth

and everything around catches fire.

No, quiet you are not more beautiful,

only a little more dead.

One thing I know about you

and it's that I have never seen anybody

ever

so eager to live

shouting

- 'Burn' By Miguel Gane

I am so excited to be spreading the self love this month and for new opportunities to create change, cultivate leaders, and grow love. 

Some ways that I have invested in myself this month include: taking myself out on a date, spending time with my baby (my sweet cat), cleansing and healing the energy in my home, sharing and receiving knowledge from my housemates, spending time in women centered spaces, and learning new things. 

Some new things I've learned recently have to do with connecting with Mother Earths grounding energy and in personal development. I have connected with Mother by creating more recycling avenues for our home to follow. I learned that organic food waste, coffee grounds, and egg shells make for easy compost additions. Learn about Composting Egg shells, especially, add much benefit to gardens and plants by adding Calcium Carbonate, a needed nutrient and moderator of soil acidity. The soil needs feeding, and the land fill needs less waste entering it every week/month/year. 

In addition, I look forward to purchasing and or making re-usable bags so as to save on my grocery bill (Sometimes grocery stores give a discount if you bring your own bags ;)) AND cut down on plastic which CANNOT be recycled. If we wouldn't put a pile of plastic on a plate for our families to eat....why would we expect Mother Earth to be excited to eat it...

Just a thought.

I have been job searching for the last few weeks in hopes that I can find a work space that is focused more on team development rather than a dog-eat-dog mentality. A job that knows how to value its diverse employees and promote a safe, relaxed work environment. I know that I will find a space to passionately play within soon. I just know it. 

May we value the women who grace our lives.

May we honor our ancestors and the fiery paths they have walked.

May we spread love, energetic abundance, and light into the world. That it may become a safe space for ALL!

Sage advice from my Sacred Earth Oracle Deck:

"The truth always reveals itself. Turn to, or be, someone you can trust. Listen and respect to all, be true to yourself. Love is the greatest law of all. Nature is dependable. Natures loyalty to its laws gives earth the order it needs to support life. Outside of these laws is chaos...and miracles. Is it as true for the frail, as it is for the strong? Is it as true for the poor, as it is for the rich? Is it as true for women, as it is for men? Is it as true for children, as it is for adults? The laws of the universe has no bias."

Peace, Love, Blessings, and Freedom.
