When picking someone to do life with, it is incredibly important that you like the way your partner thinks.

If every daffodil decided it wanted to take on the beauty of a rose, we wouldn’t have anymore daffodils. Or, we’d have deformed daffodils going against their own nature.

That is what you do when you copy others at the expense of your own expression. You erase & deform your Self.

Inauthentically co-opting pieces of others & wearing it as your own can be harmful to others, but it’s first & foremost an injury to the Higher Self. It dilutes your particular fragrances & All That You Are can’t manifest in Its fullness.

Why hurt & dishonor your Self like that?

How many of the unique gifts of our Higher Self are buried & lost under layers of things copied from others?

We can discuss the ethical issues that comes with copying others but, we don’t talk enough about how it limits our Higher Self’s expression & creative potential the most.

The rose 🌹 is one of the oldest symbols of divine wisdom and unconditional Love. It is beloved by Sufi mystics, who believe the thorny stem symbolizes the winding mystical path fraught with ego shattering trials — while the rose itself symbolizes reaching the oneness of divine union.

It can be unnerving when divine proofs physically externalize in your reality; it can be scary when what you wanted is manifesting but — push through fear & skepticism & embrace blessed wonder.

Life really can be that magical, you just have to be initiated to see it for yourself.

When miraculous confirmation arrives, don’t you dare ruin it for yourself with paranoid overthinking & analysis paralysis. Synchronicity is manifest abundance, a sign of alignment, an answered prayer, a wink from the Beloved. Unhealed ego is often disguised as “rational thought.”

Personally, I have a lot of rage, insecurity & imperfections my inner circle knows well. To quote BANKS, “I got edges that scratch & sometimes I don’t got a filter… my disposition gets confusing, my disproportionate reactions fuse with my eager state.” 🙃

Many people in healing or spiritual roles often have to present themselves with a certain etiquette but, that doesn’t mean they’re perfect.

At best, they’re creating space for reflection & healing without noise & distraction; at worst, it’s curated branding to sell you an image.

Retire therapy, wellness & spiritual peformativity. You don’t have to be perfect, refined & elegant to engage with these topics & tools & neither do you need to subscribe to a particular aesthetic. Psychospiritual inner work is about rolling up your sleeves & getting raw & messy.

I call it the process of Sufistication.
To quote Saʿdī Shīrāzī, “To mature, the naive must travel a long way. The Sufi isn’t refined before he drinks rosé.” 🌹

The cosmic irony is your intuitive discernment gets sharper after each round where you got it so wrong.

It is the missteps, misfires and betrayals that sharpen intuition most. Developing spiritual eyesight is a mystical journey of trial by fire.

Mistakes aren’t optional, they’re necessary.

Forgive yourself for all the times you let the wrong people get close to you. Forgive yourself for all the times you accidentally welcomed an enemy into your nest. It certainly won’t be the last time one slips through your radar but, you’ll know how to better handle it next time.

Understand that even being remotely associated with you is high value real estate. Cherishing yourself means gatekeeping yourself. Be gregarious to everyone but, always remind people when they do not, in fact, know you like that. Don’t let just anybody get too familiar with you.

Fake “sweetness” is one of the many manipulative faces of disembodied, unhealed feminine energy masquerading as Divine Feminine energy. Use discernment so you can appreciate the difference between being on the receiving end of 100% pure, organic raw honey vs. slimy, rotted fruit.

Trying to ride someone’s coattails &/or use someone’s resources is energy vampirism. These user types become offended & even retaliative once they realize those faux pleasantries they showered you with didn’t end up paying out; that is often how they expose themselves in the end.

Some people show you love from an earnest place, others show you love from an opportunistic place — leeches, social climbers, users, abusers & the like.

May you develop the discernment to know the difference. May you know to send the latter an eviction notice with the quickness.

Generous humans are flowers & flowers are for those who are gentle of heart & pure of mind. Flowers are not for those who become resentful of their beauty & cruelly pluck their petals.

Just as the Universe bestows, so does It take away.

You dislike flowers, so be flowerless.

When someone gives to you from their own blessings, you should know those blessings were always intended to be generously shared with you, then amplified through you.

You were sent a flower to bless you but you became so angered by its beauty, it left you no space for gratitude.

If your heart is cold & your mind impure, you fail to see when the Universe sends you a person to gift you light from their own resources. You get jealous of their light & mistreat them.

Their light was sent to be yours, beloved. But you lost it when you disrespected its source.

Full moons bring the archetypal energy of cycle culmination. This Full Moon in Aries is excellent for severing toxic bonds and relationship patterns that have reached expiry — but, fiery Aries means the energy is also ripe for nasty blowouts.

Remember you can release with peace.

Don’t underestimate a Cancer placement’s ability to not care. We stay ready to never talk to a person again in life. We love deeply but, our cutoff game is cold. There’s all this Cancer slander because folks abuse our nurturing & can’t deal when that rug’s pulled from under them.

Divine Feminine energy is the art of shifting between being a beautiful, life-giving flower and a sharpened sword dipped in righteous hellfire.
