CELEBRATE YOU!
When life celebrates you, you have to celebrate her back.
We are not celebrating the path we’ve already walked in this life enough, or all the things we’ve personally overcome. It’s a message that drops into my awareness time and time again, so over the years I’ve learned to celebrate often.
Not only when life looks as visually beautiful as this place I'm currently housesitting. I’m talking about celebrating inner evolution. Your psychological growth and expansion. Celebrating being someone that younger you (and doesn't have to be that much younger tbh) would be in awe of.
I used to turn to alcohol, drugs, men, partying ~ literally anything to escape the painful reality I was in. But worst of all, I used to turn on myself. And I won’t lie, sometimes I still do.
But most of the time now (after a lot of work) my go to is to turn TOWARDS myself. To be in presence with the challenging situation & all the feelings that come with it. It’s me AND me asking ~ what are we going to do? How are we going to love ourselves through this even when it sucks and it’s really fucking hard to? Even when we've fuck up. We aren’t taught to love ourselves through challenge, and that’s where an untapped well of deep empowerment & unconditional self-love sits dormant, waiting to be claimed.
Evolutionary Astrology has been my greatest self-empowerment tool. It’s taken so much energy away from needing to figure out why something is happening. I can see why & the perspective of its purpose, and I have a map for how to move through it and integrate what it’s calling me into. Big lessons take time, some are worked out over a lifetime.
That’s why it’s important to celebrate your wins. If you don’t, who will? People have no idea what you’ve overcome on a psychological level. That is deeply personal to you.
So celebrate you!
