Huh! Well I never. More than one thing that checked on the list for me in this video.

I like getting soap and lotion from independent makers. I want to make sure I am purchasing from good people. I like sweet and floral scents, lotion that melts into skin quickly, and soap with enough slipperiness to shave my legs with it because I prefer multi-use stuff. Also no exfoliating nonsense in the soaps (some people sneak things into it without saying! Holy moly sensory hell!) Oh and no etsy links. Nothing that I need to log in to buy. Recommend me things!
Mindfulness is a way of befriending ourselves and our experience.

Happy Friday everyone.
Remember to take some time away from your laptops this weekend.
Go outdoors, spend time with friends, just unplug. You'll be glad you did by the time Monday comes around.

Today is the #NewMoon in #Leo,
a time to reset self-expression.
A rare cradle formation combines with
to show us
greater depth about who we really are.
Like the tide going out,
the fantasy dissolves to reveal
what is going on
below the surface.

Morning. The allotment has become a sanctuary against the overwhelming distress when I look outward at the world. I make a point of spending 10 minutes watching the gatekeeper butterflies having their breakfast on the marjoram. It doesn't change a thing but it helps me to refocus and allow myself a few minutes of calm and wonder. I know a lot of people feel the same. It's ok to take time to care for yourself.

This morning I acknowledged the land I stand on.
Getting a massage on my massage chair. It was needed.
Prayer, gratitude, and respect.

I didn't have time to journal, so I asked an AI writing tool to do it for me.
I didn't have time to reflect on what the AI wrote, so I asked a chatbot to summarize my journals and generate insights.

What to expect: it's time to put in play your steps towards your goals & desires. If there are any obstacles, now's the time to evaluate priorities & eliminate those obstacles. Seek stability, it's there for the taking.

I've got to stop letting myself do "just a little thing for my mental health"...
Rot in bed all day?
- yes, just a little bed rot for my depression!
Eat nothing but chips all day?
- yes, just 19 little packs of chips as self care!
Ignore uni work and play Salt & Sacrifice all day?
- definitely, it's for my mental health don't ya know!
MY THERAPIST TOLD ME TO BE GENTLE WITH MYSELF AND NOW I'M TURNING INTO A CURSED TRASH GOBLIN WHO HASN'T SEEN SUNLIGHT IN 4 DAYS

Yes, I know this isn't what she meant
This post is 98.4% Shit Post, and I'm mostly being sensible about all this
"Best thing I ever did was stop telling people what's going on in my life.".

From the Inked Grimoire:
New Moon in Leo – July 24, 2025
This New Moon is setting us up energetically for September’s Eclipse Season, when even more profound shifts await us.

Today I had a political discussion with a neighbor. I was really upset after it, couldn't come down. I thought of ranting here, but decided I didn't make sense. i thought of writing down the reasons I was upset, but felt really long. Instead I recorded myself. In 5 minutes I was much better. I'm going to try to do this more often.
As all this unravels, I am seeing different patterns.
One that is coming to mind as I notice it grow is, "It's the people who you wouldn't have expected," or "The people doing it are the ones' you'd expect not to be doing this."
Another one I'm finding is, "To keep my sanity these days I have to remind myself that for as long as I can remember, I have been trying to help. As I drown in all the shit and corruption and cruelty."
I think I accidentally captured something important in a side chat:
"Be sure to lean on others, as you let them lean on you - ya know, like a teepee, all the poles leaning on each other."
It's #Thursday #July 17th, the #Moon is in #Aries & the current #moonphase is #LastQuarterMoon
This moon phase, especially within Aries, is telling us to work on that emotional baggage! There's a nurturing phase ahead BUT right now you have to work hard to push through this pain if you want to reach your goals. Your wounds are holding you back.
