Today is day 9 of Navratri — a Hindu festival that

Today is day 9 of Navratri — a Hindu festival that honors the worship of the sacred feminine and the triumph of light over evil.

Navratri is a festive time in India, filled with lots of community celebrations, dance, joy, and sweets.

Celebrated over 9 nights, it involves worshipping the 9 different avatars of Goddess Durga, who is believed to be a powerful warrior goddess who is invincible or considered to be beyond defeat.

What each day represents is honing in on the different aspects you can nurture within your own life, whether it means forging spiritual discipline, finding forgiveness, tuning into the wisdom within, or trusting in your desires being fulfilled in ways that align with divine perfection.

Day 9, in particular, symbolizes the fulfillment of desires, spiritual perfection, and wisdom that is beyond.

In numerology, 9 often refers to release and completion. And often, the desires birthed in life require that something else be finalized and let go. Transitions can even happen simultaneously as new seeds come to bloom while old cycles naturally resolve.

This is a beautiful and auspicious time to ask yourself:

🌹 What desires have been fulfilled that you can be grateful for?
🌹 What desires are you calling in? What needs to be let go of to allow them in?

Human goals and desires are innately built into us

Human goals and desires are innately built into us. We all want to be better and to do better. But if we don’t pause to take a moment and be grateful for all that is, if we don’t learn to accept our flaws as what makes us unique and perhaps even more beautiful — we might miss out on the delicate meaning of life.

To be here, to witness all of our existence, to revel in the shared humanity that we are all experiencing on an individual and collective level.

It may not necessarily be work (which is something society has notoriously praised) but the deepest, most rewarding “work” can sometimes be tending to yourself with more compassion, acceptance, and grace.

Instead of striving for more, what would it look like to return to more of your true, authentic human nature that already exists within you?

This doesn’t mean dismissing practicality but to balance the realms of rest and play, to move with intention and purpose, to be goal-oriented and to be grounded — without missing out on the present moment.

PSA: Empowered empaths will kindly listen to someo

PSA: Empowered empaths will kindly listen to someone’s story and simultaneously use discernment as not everyone who shares a challenge or problem may be honest. Or they may be feeding into a drama loop and sucking on your empathy to keep it fueled. It’s important to note that not everyone wants to be held accountable.

One of the key things empaths must learn on their path is that it is important to show compassion even as people may be playing out into deceptive ways. We all are moving through the shedding of roles, layers, and identities we may have outgrown or no longer resonate with.

Boundaries are still necessary and true compassion does not mean your empathy needs to cost you your peace in any way.

But when it comes to things as cunning as manipulation or deception, sometimes empaths may find themselves in situations where they become the “easy target” for situations that may not have concerned them in the first place.

Sometimes, the greatest form of empathy is letting some people go. When you stop letting your energy be drained by someone’s performance, you can reinvest that energy into your life and being more of you.

💚 Share this with an empath who needs the reminder.

The wild woman archetype is arguably one of the mo

The wild woman archetype is arguably one of the most ancient archetypes to exist. And one of the best places to witness wildness expressed is nature.

Mother Nature is a force. Her wildness, her beauty, her power naturally shines without her having to exert herself on anyone.

A volcano stands in its power and commands reverence with one look.

The forests stand tall with vegetation, the animal kingdom, and plant life, and all of it somehow pulls forth our silence with one step.

The rivers, oceans, and lakes ride the ebb and flow of the current, and they naturally allow the serenity of our inner being to emerge with one slow descent into the water.

In a largely artificial, manufactured world, we aren’t just looking at skyscrapers that somehow divide more people than bring together. We are also witnessing a mirror reflection of the manufactured presence we learned to carry — the persona many carry in jobs they don’t want to do, the hyped-up version brought into the dating sphere to prove oneself, the lies that are told to not have to face the innermost truth.

The wild woman archetype strips all of that — and she strips it fast.

The light and the shadow are enhanced in nature because nature welcomes all of it. She doesn’t hide from herself. She thunders, she roars, she soothes, she cries, she empowers.

What most will discover along the path is that the wild woman archetype isn’t living her life to escape society, responsibilities, or the reality of life. The wild woman has discovered that underneath all the lies she was ever told about who she had to become, she’s always been enough, worthy and whole.

And in returning back to the essence of who she was from the origins of time, she gets to enhance all the other aspects of herself too from this most primal state where she finds her energy, sovereignty, and power — all from within.

This may scare a world that wanted women to be dependent, submissive (in an unequal way), and unaware of this primal force.

But the lies are vanishing.

Because more of us are remembering.

What a time to be a woman. 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
