I don't usually wrap presents for myself but this present was intended for someone else. It turns out that they weren't who I thought they were so I kept it for myself.

The gift was a pair of beautiful candles from #craftandcresent . I had a wonderful night with the moon, candles, and tarot cards. I feel that connection again to my magick and to the universe/earth. Things have been hard lately with my body and the job search and the state of our fucked up president, but I was able to focus on myself instead of what was around me. I'm still bad at acknowledging my feelings, specially when they're intense. Thankful for knowing how to do the work. #TarotReading #magick #altar #candlemagick #wordvomit

Spent time under my favorite oak tree doing, what I call, introspective work. This is the mental work of acknowledging my feelings and letting them pass. I've spent my whole life running from feelings I didn't understand, trauma I didn't know I had. It's still a hard skill to master, but I'm getting better at not running from my own feelings. I've been overwhelmed by the state of the administration in this country. The anxiety stirs up feelings from my past where I've felt the same, pressure coming in from all sides, not safe, insecurity. I finally worked on those feelings today, letting them come to the surface so I can let them leave. My work is never done. Although none of this is my fault, it is my responsibility to work through it. #majordepressivedisorder #mentalhealth #journaling #anxiety #wordvomit #thegreatoutdoors
