So this Aries full moon is reaching its peak. We are being so pressed to let go of things we’re holding on to and begin again — and I know y’all are tired of hearing this from me, but frankly, it’s an ongoing process: you will be called over and over again to let things go as you go deeper into what’s holding you back. It’s a f**king spiral, boo. Removing one layer reveals a new one.
For many of us, these are people who are holding us back — or the energetic attachment to them at least, or to what could have been — even if you’ve physically let them go. For others, it’s holding on to past limiting beliefs. This could sound like “people only use me” (one of my personal faves), “no one can love me until I’m skinner or richer or more successful or less awkward or unless I subsume my own needs to theirs”, “I don’t know enough yet/I’m not ready”, “it’s too late for me to change”; “I don’t deserve this because of the mistakes I’ve made”; “if I’m vulnerable, I’ll just be rejected”. Regardless of how it’s dressed, it’s really the same underlying issue: I am not worthy of a new beginning. I am not worthy of a better life. I am comfortable with the pain I know versus the uncertainty of what could be. I don’t trust that things won’t happen as they did in the past. Maybe you “know” things will always turn out the same.
But you’re overlooking how much you’ve grown. You’ve got boundaries now, babe. You’ve learned to love yourself, and to take the time to take care of yourself and your own needs. You’re learning to trust your intuition; you’re learning to recognize who/what doesn’t serve you. You know now that those voices in your head that tell you that you aren’t good enough are just voices, projected on you by people that are/were themselves wounded. They are not the truth of who you are. They are not the truth of who you can be.
If you continue to look for proof that you’re a piece of s**t or that things never work out for you, you’ll f**king find it. So stop that s**t.
And if you haven’t worked on this yet, consider this your invitation. This powerful energy can go sideways for sure, but it can also be a real opportunity to break through. To see the world as a child again with all its possibilities even if your current circumstances maybe don’t support that. Will you trust anyway? And I’m not just talking about trusting other people, the real key is this: have you learned to trust yourself?
So if you’re holding on to people who have rejected you, who have shamed you, who have disrespected you, who try to hold you down so they don’t have to face where they refuse to rise: let them go. Release them to make room for the people who are meant for you to enter your life. And maybe some will eventually come back, and maybe not; either way, you’ve got to release them now if they aren’t serving you. And if you’re holding on to other people’s projections born out of their own pain which didn’t have a damn thing to do with you: let them go. Release those tired, s**tty thoughts and make room for trust.
I know s**t didn’t work out the way you planned, but maybe that’s because the universe has something better in store for you. Embrace your new beginning, Boo. You got this. ❤️🤙
