GROUNDING— To ground is an exercise that is used to clear and release excess energy, as well as to renew the energies within oneself and clear out the old. Traditionally done by envisioning roots stretching out from oneself into the ground, like a tree, and connecting through them to the earth. However, it can be done with simple visualization, and does not need to include nature, as long as the cycling of energy is completed.
grounding can be a long focused ritual, it can be a simple few movements. there are a variety of ways to ground besides these guided methods listed, it can be done in almost any way that cycles new energy in and old energy out.
Ava Gardner by Clarence Sinclair Bull, 1944
"The only kind of makeup she uses is lipstick, and she’s a big perfume addict. Perfume goes behind her ears, on her hair, at the nape of her neck, and in the crook of her elbows. Some days, she changes her perfume two or three times, to fit her moods. She likes “Joy,” “Blue Hour,’ and’ “Mitsouko.” Before a big date, she takes a bubble bath—Elizabeth Arden, usually—but her housecoat is tailored, coolie-style, and she owns only two strapless formals. They’re both black, and she wears them when she has to appear at publicity functions, premieres and so forth."
-Modern Screen magazine, July 1948

STOP DEMONIZING FRIDAY THE 13TH 😔
(and extra observation I found)
Friday the 13th has been demonized for years and I'm gonna just tell y'all. STOPPPRR 😭
So as we all know, divine feminine been demonized for years itself. She is dark. She is unknown. She is path to the world that can't be seen. She is mysterious. She holds the utmost power to manifestation. She is cant be touched or obtained. She can be channelized. She is the creator. She is represented by darkness. The "Dark energy".
Kind of reminds you of something?
If you are an astronomy freak like me, you must've heard about the "Dark Energy" that has all the scientists scratching their heads and they still can't get the hold of it?. Well the DARK ENERGY covers 90% of our universe and is responsible for the expansion of it. And guess what, we humans dont even know what it is yet.
Isn't that amazing how spirituality and science overlap at times?
Anyways.
Friday the 13th back in the days was celebrated as the birth of Divine Feminine. The goddess energy. Why friday? Because its ruled by Venus. And why 13th? Number 13 is portal of life and death. Kinda womb energy right there. It's a transformative number of ending and creation. For example if you want to release soemthing off your life. Work with number 13 and you'll release. And ofc in today's society it's the God. Instead of Goddeses that once were celebrated.
No wonder the day got demonized along with every other practices in the world that empowered women to be in their true powerful sence of feminity and element.
Kaali the representation of divine feminine herself, who rules death, transformation and time truly represents and embodys what I just explained right about now. If you want to understand fierce side of divine feminine in general. It may clear your understanding as well towards the real feminity instead of how its shown in media. The submissiveness and too polite for her own good. The toxic representation of it.
Also a weird observation, people born on friday the 13th would surreally carry this goddess energy to them, doesn't matter the gender. They may also embody feminine traits to them. unexplainable. But it is there.
Example> Park Jimin.
This post was highly inspired by ITSBABYJ's video. In a way I've literlaly summarized what she has said in there so please have a look at it to know more in depth!

Imagine who you could be if only you had the audacity.
If you didn’t care about looking stupid. If you weren’t afraid of making mistakes. If you didn’t put other people’s judgements before your own. If you didn’t neglect your responsibilities. If you didn’t procrastinate. If you didn’t let the toxic voice win. If you didn’t overthink everything. If you didn’t fear your own power.
Imagine that you have the audacity.
That you take bold actions. That you take accountability for yourself. That you unapologetically show your creativity to the world. That you ignore the naysayers. That you remain unbothered. The you allow yourself to be seen. That you embrace all that you are. That you speak your truth. That you allow yourself to make mistakes and learn from them, then become a winner. That you speak highly to yourself. That you begin your journey right now.
Don’t block yourself from being your greatest.

Dark Feminine
“Snap.” - Dita Von Teese (x)
Pamela Anderson at Cannes (1995)
My religion is beautiful, my gods and goddesses are beautiful, unparalleled, and untamed. They instill in their children to never EVER bow down as if you are not equal. They encourage us to take our revenge when the world will not listen and tells us to forgive and forget. They tell us get up instead of "you poor thing". Our gods do not pity us, they stand with us. They look at us and see our potential, and our flaws and will still have a drink with us. They want us to accept ourselves instead of tear ourselves apart, piece by piece. "Why fix something that was never broken". Our gods listen to the worst parts of our story and still respect us. So don't tell me I am going to hell and be surprised when I say I hope so.
