Bali ~ Island of the Gods 🌴🕉️
An island that has brought me to my knees purging and purifying. Of course the photos make it look like a paradise and illustrate that I must be having the time of my life, and yes it is a paradise and I am experiencing life in an entirely new way, through a new pair of eyes with a heart cracked wide open, but never forget two truths can exist at once. My time here is coming to a close this weekend. The energy of the land is heavy, heated, intense and activated. These are volcanic lands, Indonesia is covered in volcanoes. It activates the fire within us in a way of burning all that is ready to die. It brings up every ounce of discomfort that you have been expertly avoiding whilst in the comfort of home and the busyness of routine and familiarity. Solo travelling is one of the greatest teachers. When we solo travel our root chakra becomes deeply anchored into the chakras of Mother Earth. Each new country and landscape has its own rhythm, it's own heartbeat, carrying a unique frequency, message and medicine. We enter into a deeper relationship with the Mother, we can hear her loud and clear, she works through us like a spirit, scanning us of what is ready to be released and what we are now called upon to rise into. What was once a whisper now becomes a scream. What needs tending to? Then there is the ego's need to make the most of the trip, to spend your money on something life changing, to never miss out on a fun opportunity or a 'once in a lifetime experience', but you soon realise it is all an illusion. It is the fear programme playing louder than ever before. But how could this be? The moment we have been waiting for is finally here, how could I possibly miss the magic of this moment by getting tangled up again in fear, in lack and scarcity. There lies the paradox. The merging of paradise and prison. The paradise that is all around you and the prison that your mind wraps around it, trying to control your experience, curate your time, fill your days with activities because perhaps you will only ever be here once so you must live now!! Queue exhaustion - your body catches up with the illusion and at least you begin to see 👁️

🦂♏️ VENUS RETROGRADE IN SCORPIO ~ October 3rd - 25th
⚖️♎️ VENUS RETROGRADE IN LIBRA ~ October 25th - November 14th

Venus goes retrograde once every 18 months. This is a powerful transit. It holds the power to make or break relationships of any kind. It unites bonds where love wants to be restored, where the story has pages still to fill, and it also breaks down relationships that are not built on truth and reciprocity. It brings up all of the gunk. Any deceit, lies, dishonesty, imbalance or inauthenticity is revealed by a Venus RX.

However, this time round we can expect the intensity to be turned all the way up, because Venus is in Scorpio. Venus does not like being in Scorpio, it is in its detriment here, because Venus is love and light and Scorpio is death and decay 😳

This transit is here to confront you with all that you would rather forget, it reminds us of the need for grief, for rage, for expression of the shadow aspects each and everyone of us holds.

If you are wondering why you suddenly feel full of dread and uncertainty, this is why. My fellow Scorpio dominant people will be feeling this the most. Mercury is also currently in Scorpio which is wreaking havoc in our thoughts.

Scorpio energy is REAL. It dissolves illusion and bu****it. It is the human lie detector, it transmutes what is dark and hidden into medicine for those who are brave enough to journey with it.

Later in the month Venus will move back into Libra, which will lighten the energetic load some what, but what I expect we will feel the most here is a deep desire for connectivity and community. This is friendships, co-workers, group events, visiting friends who live on the other side of the world. Libra is ruled by Venus so we will feel more connected to working with this energy in a productive way.

Until then I advise you pay attention to everything that is being stripped away from your life whether it be money, career changes, moving home, material possessions, and relationships ~ and let the slate be cleared so that when Venus stops retrograding you can take clear action on what you are moving towards with alignment.

Okay yesterday I was having a huge emotional release which is no surprise because the day before I received my first Melukat - Balinese Water Purification Ceremony which was so deeply healing, cleansing and honestly the family that did it for me are the sweetest people I have ever met 🥲 which brought me so much love because I have been feeling a lot of the outsider wind surface so far on this trip. Which is natural when you're solo travelling especially at the start of the trip! It's all an energetic alchemical process that new experiences and lands take us on 🌀

Reading this post again today, I realise whilst there is emotional truth in my words, I am actually doing so much and doing a great job of vlogging and doing client sessions so far on this trip. When I get to Amed I intend to start writing more so get ready for a fat newsletter update! ✍🏻

I am also in my luteal phase and the moon was in cancer yesterday so I was feeling absolutely everything all at once 🤣 Cancer placements folk get it!!

So whilst what I have written is true and I do feel like I am behind others at times - and I feel it's important that social media is a place for sharing authentically our truth which may be vulnerable when we are really sharing from the heart, as I do as a Leo. I also recognise that I have so much strength, so much power, I recognise how far I have come in terms of navigating life with chronic illness and disabilities and still I am able to solo travel, look after myself, plan everything myself and run my business and honestly that's some boss ass moves so yay me 💸💅🏼

You will really see the full spectrum of feminine emotion and cycles if you follow my page. My intention always is to be true to myself and share from a place of honesty and integrity. I also think sometimes people need to see the messier and more vulnerable aspects of ourselves to feel heard and seen because as we know social media is a place full of distortion and everyone trying to sell sell sell.

I hope my page offers a break from that energy and can guide you back to the sacredness of your own heart. 🙏🏼🌺

Today I witnessed a therapist make the most ableist post I have seen in a long time explaining why if you just learn to nourish yourself and stop neglecting yourself, you will be healed. 🙄

This is literally the biggest load of bu****it and seriously soo harmful for a certified therapist to be spreading this information to people who could be seriously vulnerable and looking for anything to make them feel better, or any therapist who knows their stuff to support them with their health.

Sure for some people learning how to properly take care of yourself can change your life, but healing is not a one size fits all.

As a disabled woman who has lived with chronic pain and fatigue since I was 15 years old, who has spent tens of thousands of pounds on different therapies, practices, psychedelics, diets, supplements, exercise regimes, etc I can tell you with full disclosure that disease and chronic illness is not something that just miraculously heals itself or is cured when we find the right thing that works for us.

For some people that may be the case, I know of people who have found a therapy that has healed their symptoms, but that does not mean that it is the same for every single person.

Especially for disabled people, whom believe you me we have tried everything, we want more than anything to live in a healthy capable body, so of course we want to believe that all it takes is one hypnotherapy session, or a year of somatic therapy and we will be healed, but the truth is - it is not that simple and our bodies are very complex yet intelligent beings.

I believe above all - the most valuable and important thing disabled people can learn to do is LOVE THEMSELVES EXACTLY AS WE ARE! 👏🏼 That is true courage, that is true strength, that is advocating and fighting against toxic ableist culture that is all too prevalent in our society and the healing industry.

The majority of therapists don't have a clue how to truly work with & honour a disabled persons needs. More therapists need to be training in trauma informed care for disabled bodies.🙏🏼

Casual friendly no strings attached encounters between males and females especially male and female solo travellers should not be this rare!!

I have solo travelled quite a bit and I must say these kinds of encounters are unfortunately pretty rare. It feels as though so many solo travelling men view 'picking up women' as some sort of cherry on the cake on their day/night out and it repulses me.

As if a woman is some added bonus to your day that you can tick off your list, because there is a possibility that if you impress her with fake kindness and performed charm then there is a chance that she will come home with you. So many men want a quick f*ck to complete their evening and make it 10/10. Because simply being in a woman's presence isn't enough for them.

Simply being in her aura, connecting with her, genuinely having interesting and meaningful conversations doesn't quench the thirst of a male. No, access to the woman's body is the only acceptable exchange to him.

The patriarchy runs so fu***ng deep and it is so evident to me as a female solo traveller. The impact this has on both men and women goes much deeper than we would like to admit. Women that feel that they should be giving their sexual energy in exchange for a man paying for their dinner. It breaks my heart. Truly. Women that are to afraid to say no to a man, to be honest with him, to express her truth and keep herself safe.

ALL MEN AND WOMEN need to RISE UP now more than ever, if we ever want to create a world where women feel SAFE! We need more voices talking on this, we need more fu***ng rage, more feeling, we need more action!

Also I thought the video cut out midway hence my raging wee face and the cut to a difference sentence 😆

It is time men and women start having the difficult conversations around violence against women, gender based violence and women's safety. Please please please share your voice! 🙏🏼

The truth is the grass isn't always greener, and actually when you get to that version of paradise that you have been dreaming of and yearning for, you realise the illusion of it all.

It awakens you to your own mind games and self created suffering.

I am going through a death on this trip. And death requires surrendering. It requires letting go of what you thought you knew, where you thought you were headed, what you thought you would be doing and who with, and what the purpose of it all is.

I am realising more and more that in order to truly be of service in this world I need to let myself be guided, not by my ego but by spirit, by the Earth, by other humans I connect with that reflect light back onto me.

I have always struggled with the pace on Earth, maybe it's audhd, maybe it's because I am an old soul, a sensitive soul, an 8th houser, or maybe I am exactly as I should be and how I should be and the only thing 'wrong' is trying to change that.

This is the last time I will connect with these hills that hold the energy of my ancestors for a long time.

Today I sat with our Mother Earth, I meditated in the wind, I streamed reiki from her into myself. Connecting with the source of all nature, all creation.

I gave myself a reiki root chakra session. Letting my roots go deep down into the Earth, into the womb of the Earth and back into my own womb.

Remembering where we come from is a practice we all need more of in the western world. Honouring the land and our ancestors can bring incredible and profound healing and clearing.

I have so much gratitude for my home, this beautiful landscape, so so blessed 🙏🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Seduced by the Unknown 🔮

I get so excited about what I do not know. So giddy at the vast grand landscape of emotions, experiences and sensations I have yet to feel. The unnerving yet exhilarating reality that my life will take paths and turns I never could have expected. That expectations themselves will be shattered by divine protection and intervention. And in it's place something entirely new and awe inspiring, all encompassing, shimmering and spheric and full of life force. It draws me in, into myself, into the infinite abyss in which we all crawl out of and fall back into every night and day. I choose to stay here. In the timeless beauty of the void, existing in the playground of my mind, that open space where imagination and wonder take place, here I am and here I will remain, blissfully seduced by the unknown.

"I won't be complaining" 🎶🪩🎼

What a GIFT it is to BREATHE, to have limbs, to MOVE the body however you want to move it because it's YOUR body, and you can do whatever you want with it 🕺🏼
