rebirth in the spiral 💮

a glimpse into my first spiritual women's retreat ⌇ Libra eclipse portal - part two

Welcome back to Part Two of my break-up story. You can read Part One here.

Every time there is massive change in my life, you can chalk it up to Eclipse season. Getting estranged from my sister. Starting this Substack.

And now, separating from the love of my life.

For the past 1.3 years, the eclipses have been happening primarily in the signs of Aries and Libra.

This is the axis of relationships — how do we keep our personal sovereignty, while still honoring the fullness of the Other?

Libra’s shadow is disempowerment through “crowdsourcing” opinions. Taking everyone else’s needs into account until you drown out your own voice. Libra is the ultimate shapeshifter, editing their needs and desires to keep the peace until one day, they look around and realize, gosh, I don’t really know what I truly want anymore. I don’t even know what I want for dinner!

I have spent so long living in the shadow of Libra that it feels scary to own that I am ready to step into my Aries light. The ram. The warrior.
