CW: Mental Health, Religious Trauma, Shadow Work
Something I've learned on my #ShadowWork #journey is that just because you moved on from something doesn't mean you necessarily found #healing.
My husband & I moved away from my home town for about 7 years. I mentioned it previously, but I grew up in a pretty strict religious household that caused me a lot of #religious #trauma. While we were away, I truly thought I moved on from everything in the past. I never dwelled on it or felt like I was carrying weight from it. But the year we moved back, it hit me like a ton of bricks on a deep #subconscious level.
Last year when we moved back, for months I had dreams relating to my traumas growing up. It all started with a dream where a dream character asked if I wanted to be blessed. Of course I said yes, who wouldn't want to be blessed?😂 But when she blessed me, it was like she expanded my awareness & my perception shifted inward. I could see & feel this intense dark cloud of icky energy inside me, & from the inside out I could hear myself screaming.
I woke up from that dream & after that I could feel that icky cloud of energy stuck in my #SolarPlexus #Chakra, I had awful #IntrusiveThoughts for awhile & often felt like I needed to throw up to purge the energy. I don't think the dream character put that dark energy there, I think she just made me conscious of what was always there & I had finally grown enough on my journey to be able to start healing it, so that dream brought that energy to the surface for easier release.
Over the next several months I had other dreams that all were connected to this process. I talked with my mom about it & the resentment I had towards my dad for religion related things that really hurt me in my upbringing. She said some things that really spoke to my #InnerChild that I needed to hear, & it helped me purge a lot of trapped emotional energy.
#EFT #Tapping was something that helped to bring about a #breakthrough moment as well. I did one specifically for #InnerChildHealing and this helped tremendously and caused a shift. It was like I could perceive myself as two different energies residing in one body; my child self, & my present self.
After 9 months of regular shadow work & a #reiki session, I feel like I've finally & truly resolved that aspect of my life & feel at #peace with the past, that was finalized with a dream & a release #ritual.
In this dream, I was standing in an open field on a cliff, just exploring, & I saw a beautiful butterfly fluttering towards me. It landed on me and stayed with me & I was so excited, it was like I made a new friend. I kept exploring with it, & there were moments it flew away & I was afraid I lost it, but it always came back to me & never left for long. I brought the butterfly to show my parents, & they both admired it. It sat on my hands, opened its wings & displayed it's unique colors; red on the top, white underneath. But then my father looked away, as though he were distracted by something & his awareness was elsewhere. While he was unaware, he grabbed the butterfly & crushed it like it was a piece of paper. This killed the butterfly, & I was so angry at my father for killing it. I told him I hated him for it. I don't remember any more of the dream, but when I woke up from it I realized what I needed to do.
I needed to forgive my father for what happened in the past, for killing that aspect of inner child, because he never intended to hurt me. That was apparent in the dream. His awareness was a elsewhere, #religion made him blind to a lot and he is not able to see the damage it has caused. I was bitter about it for a long time but I realize now that religion really does blind people. They can have the best intentions, but once religion takes hold of one's mind, it becomes a shackle & people don't see clearly anymore, they only see through the lens of religion. This realization softened me, & part of me mourns for my father, because of how much religion has robbed from his life & his time with family.
So I made a #butterfly that looked like the one in my #dream, & on the underside I wrote down everything I was ready to release, & burned it. I forgave my father for the past, took the ashes outside, & buried them. Then I created a brand new butterfly, representing the start of a new journey of exploration myself & my inner child will now explore together. This experience was a #metamorphosis, necessary preparation for the start of a new era. 🦋
This is how I've come to learn that just because we move on from something doesn't mean we have healed from the pain or released it. A lot of times we just repress & forget about it. I think #spirit removes layers of #repression when we finally reach a place in our journey & #consciousness that we're ready to handle those things resurfacing.
Shadow work is one of the most painful but rewarding experiences. It's a journey of going inward, into the darkness & bringing the light back in. 🌟

@law_geek From all the books we read and analyzed in school, I really enjoyed “Homo Faber” by #MaxFrisch and Franz #Kafka’s “Metamorphosis” the most, which we both read when I was about 18. Gripping plots and a LOT of lessons to take away.
In my English class we read “How to Be Good” by #NickHornby around the same time — I actually laughed out loud while I was re-reading it the exam, I found it so funny. 😅 #bookstodon -

"While not everyone knows the axolotl, it is loved by all who know it. This adorable amphibian is a type of salamander that never undergoes metamorphosis. Therefore, this animal remains fully aquatic. They are popular among people for their cute faces that always appear to be smiling. However, there is something that we should not be smiling about. The beloved axolotls are on the brink of extinction. These beloved animals are critically endangered, and now experts are wondering if there is hope for them and their species.
Axolotls already had the odds stacked against them due to their limited habitat space. According to Conservation International, this amphibian can only be found in 'an ancient wetland system of islands and canals in Mexico City.' Having only a small place for existence has already placed this beloved creature behind other species. Then, add in habitat loss and pollution, and these little guys don't stand a chance. Not to mention the introduction of invasive fish that prey on the axolotl as well. The majority of the factors against this amphibian are human-driven. Urban expansion slowly takes over their natural habitat.
Additionally, the pollution from wastewater and agricultural seepage into their habitats degrades their water quality. This then reduces their ability to see as well as some of their sensory skills. Also, climate change leads to higher water temperatures, which can impair their reproduction and growth rates. Not to mention that rising temperatures also increase the risk, frequency, and severity of droughts, which in turn reduce their freshwater habitats. With all of these odds stacked against them, it is no wonder that axolotls are on the brink of extinction.
With daunting news like that, it is easy to assume that the axolotl's future is bleak. However, new evidence suggests that there may be a shred of hope for this adorable amphibian.
Conservation International shares that researchers are now using 'traditional fishing nets as well as environmental DNA (eDNA) to track the presence of the notoriously elusive amphibian.' With this new tracking, the Ecological Restoration Laboratory of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), with support from Conservation International-Mexico, is successfully 'covering 115 monitoring sites across the 2,500-hectare (6,180-acre) Xochimilco Protected Area.'
Although they have not yet successfully captured an axolotl, eDNA testing has revealed that axolotls are still present in the canal, which is promising. While their numbers are just a fraction of what they used to be, researchers are optimistic that the negative impacts can be reversed. The wetlands that the axolotls call home have been greatly affected by the overuse of pesticides in modern farming. In addition to invasive species such as carp and tilapia, which are axolotls' main predators. Luckily, local farmers and researchers have teamed up to reverse the trend."

Impermanence, 2018
A permanent birch plywood installation at Fortaleza de Sagres. Impermanence explores solidity and transformation, tracing a cube’s metamorphosis into a bird—earth to ephemeral freedom. Inspired by Sagres, where land meets sea and sky, the forms spiral upward, symbolizing the pull toward the unknown.

Daisy the Great - The Rubber Teeth Talk
Origin: Brooklyn
#TastingNotes: Mazzy Star, Veruca Salt, Tegan and SaraOn their third full length, the duo of Mina and Kelley complete their inevitable metamorphosis from precious low-fi indie goofballs to 90s MTV alternative rockers. The clever word play and close-sung harmonic curveballs are still here, but it's clear they're not writing for their bedroom or alternative theatre spaces: this is a proper rock record.
Lead single Ballerina was a statement; a 90s fuzzed out rocker ready to be talked over by Beavis and Butthead. Fully half the record follows this model: the guitars are louder, the choruses bigger, the production intentionally rough and unfinished. The more relaxed moments lean into surrealist lyrics inspired by literal and figurative dreams; Swinging began as hallucinations from an overdose of laughing gas.
I wake up at 4AM these days, I've got lot on my mind
Like what's the point of a body if I'll never be a ballerina?My favourite track is Lady Exhausted, with its surrealist imagery, unpredictable structure and metric modulations; it sounds as much like The Else-era TMBG as anyone. It's mostly an indie-disco romp except when the tempo screeches to a halt for a bit of psychadelic droning, before climaxing in a full choir of overdubbed vocals repeating the refrain:
Please somebody tell somebody what's going on
The days of the months of the years are all goneI have written before that I miss the unfiltered too-clever rawness of their earliest work, and I do, but The Rubber Teeth Talk is a fine record and more successful than their sophomore record from 2022.
Here's Ballerina; you can find the album on Qobuz, but maddeningly not Bandcamp.

I wonder why I love #writing weird ceremonies so much 😆
If in Entanglement and #WildFlowersElectricBeasts they were meaningful and poetic — a symbol of rebirth, a symbol of the cycle of life — in my new WIP it's just strange and culty lol Though it still symbolizes metamorphosis, leaving the past and obstacles behind and stepping into a new role/form.
In the middle of the scene now and having fun! 😁 Does anyone else do that? Or maybe you have your own recurring themes? #WritingCommunity -

Phoenix
This is my profile avatar, a #FractalFlame created in #Apophysis.
For me this image kindles a sense of hope; it evokes the moment of "calm brilliance" when the phoenix, dreaming of flight, starts to re-create itself in the flame."Its crest shines with the sun’s own light and shatters the darkness with its calm brilliance."
“Phoenix” by Claudian, translated by Henry Maurice Platnauer -
