Erin Benzakein of Floret Flower Farm needs little introduction to most garden-minded listeners. She has been so instrumental in cultivating a flower-farming economy in our country. Her innovative and dedicated seed research and breeding work of the past decade, however, is a whole new lens through which to appreciate her work. As we look toward the Autumnal Equinox later this month, please enjoy this favorite conversation! Back in 2017, when I first interviewed Erin for the program & for The Earth in Her Hands, she was already a tireless advocate for local flowers and for supporting more flower farmers and local-flower florists in our everyday lives here in the US. Through her on-farm and subsequently online flower farming Floret Workshops, for more than a decade, she has been renowned for encouraging and training eager new flower-farmer-florists in order to transform the cut flower industry from the multi-billion-dollar, large-corporate-owned international import (with little ecological or economic oversight) behemoth it had become, back into the more lovely and loving, organic, locally-based circular and community-oriented economy she envisioned it could be – and should be. Floret - once a flower farm and training center – is now more fully (and perhaps even more beautifully) described as “a family-owned flower farm and seed company specializing in breeding new cut flower varieties for gardeners, farmers & designers.” They add: “ Our thriving research & education farm is dedicated to giving flower lovers the tools & information they need to grow the gardens of their dreams.” In honor of the Autumnal Equinox, and its seeds of the next season feeling, I am so revisiting Erin on Cultivating Place – just as Floret's newest title, From Bloom to Seed, is now available for preorder! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you for listening over the years, and we hope you'll continue to support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow and engage in even more conversations like these. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud and iTunes.

Hello and welcome to ‘Sky Watch’, your personal 'Petersphere' stargazing bulletin for September! September marks the beginning of the new stargazing season in the ‘Petersphere’; when the Autumnal Equinox on the 23rd marks the transition to longer nights and shorter days. Everyone regrets the passing of Summer, but now we have the consolation of glorious Autumn night skies! Written by Petersphere resident, astronomical expert and amateur astronomer Geoff Burt, and voiced by Claire Vennis, every month Shine Radio presents a Sky Watch of our unique dark skies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of So Divine!, Stephanie and Megan explore the celestial landscape for September. They discuss Uranus stationing retrograde, and how the days surrounding it we should be open to changing things up and having the confidence to pivot. This happens the same day as the Virgo New Moon and a Venus/Chiron Opposition, inspiring us to look at the details related to a relationship so that we can further heal wounds that keep us back from fully standing in our value. They discuss the Autumnal Equinox, which offers us the further ability to recognize shifts and how to balance seeming opposites. They talk about the Aries Full Moon and how with Uranus, Neptune and Pluto connecting to it, we may access new insights related to conflict and justice. Stephanie chooses the tarot card for the month at random, the Seven of Swords, and Megan explains how this Neptune-influenced card may have us questioning, 'What is real and what is not?'' as well as the importance of setting boundaries and staying grounded in our own truth.

What does the Bible say about Halloween? Is the holiday just harmless fun? Why do Christians celebrate it?According to the National Retail Federation, seven in ten Americans (who live in a country that still marginally believes in the Bible) now celebrate Halloween. Total spending on the holiday is in the billions of dollars. Foods that are often associated with it include Bonfire toffee (Great Britain), candy and toffee apples (Great Britain, Ireland), caramel apples and candy corn, candy shaped like skulls, bats, and so on, as well as pumpkins (a Halloween tradition).Everyone knows the celebration of Halloween, All Hallowed's Ev'n, involves witches, warlocks, jack-o-lanterns, and an odd little phrase, “trick or treat.” They feel it's innocent, and all about pretending as they teach their little ones to dress up and join in the fun. Is our Creator fond of us doing this, or are we practicing something originating in darkness that is absolutely evil in His eyes? The word “Halloween” is a hybridization of the phrase “All Hallow's Eve,” or All Hallowed's Ev'n. The Catholic Circus had made November 1st "All Saints' Day" in order to re-invent the pagans' festival of death. The night before became known as All Halloweds' Evening." “Hallowed” means “Holy,” and is a word derived from “halo,” a nimbus, hoop, or glowing emanation around the head of a deity such as Krishna (India). Buddha is often depicted with a hoop or glowing orb around his head, as is “Jupiter” of the Romans, and Ceruiden of the Druids. This practice of relating a round glow to the heads of deities or “enlightened ones” was adopted by Catholicism from the Romans, stemming from even more ancient Pagans. The statue of Jupiter has a halo, and was re-named Peter. The Catholics adopted the halo from Paganism to indicate that a person was a saint, so their images of dead “saints” could be properly venerated. The idea of being “haloed” meant the person was “holy,” and this idea is conveyed in the term “hallowed”, pertaining to veneration / worship, or "sacred." Whatever Yahweh declares set-apart (qodesh) is set-apart; what man declares set-apart, unsupported by the Words of Yahweh, is an abomination to Him. Autumnal Equinox - 13 weeksa. September 21Mabon - one of the Illuminati's Human Sacrifice Nights b. September 21 -22 - Autumnal EquinoxFrom this date through Halloween, occultists believe the veil separating the earthly dimension from the demonic realm gets progressively thinner, with the thinnest night being October 31; this thinning of the separating veil makes it easier for the demonic realm to enter the earthly dimension. Thus, on Halloween, evil spirits, ghosts, witches, hobgoblins, black cats, fairies, and demons of all sorts were believed to be running amok across the land. They had to be back in their spiritual dimension before midnight, Halloween, for the separating veil would then get thicker. c. October 31 - SamhainAlso known as Halloween, or All Hallows Eve as designated by the Catholic Church.

It is a time for introspection and self-evaluation. It is a time to reconnect with that which has gone before us, to our Ancestors. It is the time of Samhain, the Witches New Year, when the gates between the Dead and the Living are open wide, and the voices of the past speak to us.

Send us a textAs we in the Northern Hemisphere (sorry, Australian friends!) reach the Autumnal Equinox, we can use it as a time to reflect on our own summer abundance. We may not be tending to crops, but we have each been tending to and nurturing other aspects of our lives. Each of us is growing and changing, and each of us is doing so in our own way. This change of season is a good time for us to look at our family system to see how our interconnectedness has changed and how our communication needs to adapt.

The Autumnal Equinox stirs something complicated in me every year. On one hand, there is excitement: the promise of cooler nights, apples ripening, and the feeling that balance is possible, if only for a brief moment. On the other hand, there's concern our world feels anything but balanced. Storms, violence, and uncertainty keep pressing in. So when the sun pauses at equal day and night, I find myself both hopeful and wary, pulled in two directions at once.This year, into that tension, a new image has appeared: the Solar Horse. In dreams and meditation, it shows up carrying the disk of the sun, holding it steady. Sometimes it stands alongside Brigid's other animals. Sometimes it walks through my Interior Grove conversations, my great-grandfather chuckling and calling it the “Divine Pony Express.” The image makes me laugh, but it also makes me listen. The Solar Horse feels like a messenger, a courier between realms, reminding me that balance is not stillness, it is motion carried with care.For my partner Brian, the connection clicked with the Tibetan wind horse, a bearer of messages and prayers. That image rings true: what is more wish-fulfilling than being heard, whether by God, by ancestors, or by each other? The Equinox becomes a threshold not only of balance but of conversation, between abundance and loss, between past and future, between the living and the dead.We could chase history here, and there are certainly fragments to find. Sun gods of the Levant sometimes rode between the land of the living and the land of the dead. Horses and disks appear on artifacts. But the truth is, our practices are young. Paganism in its current forms is half a century old at best. Reconstruction is valuable, but the living practice matters most. History offers us metaphors and reminders, but meaning comes when we take symbols into our lives and see if they breathe.That is what we are doing this year: experimenting. Apples and oats become not only harvest food but offerings to the Solar Horse. A candle flame becomes not just a seasonal decoration but a sign of the sun carried into darkness. Maybe incense rises with our prayers as if handed to the messenger's reins. All of this feels fitting, and all of it may change. That's the heart of a living faith.The important thing is honesty. Too often religion drifts into rote repetition: we do it because we've always done it, even if it no longer speaks to us. I don't want a dead ritual. I want something that moves, that speaks, that evolves. A living tradition breathes; it makes room for mistakes, for laughter, for experiments that don't quite work. It teaches through the trying.So this Equinox, I will feed the Solar Horse. Maybe with slices of apple left aside, maybe with oats stirred into a cobbler, maybe simply with joy shared at the table. I'll light a candle and watch the balance of flame and darkness. I'll write in my journal, noting whether this practice settles into my bones or not. And I invite you to do the same.Don't be afraid to try. Let the Equinox be a time of curiosity. Offer something small and see if it carries a message back to you. Pay attention to your dreams. Laugh when the Divine Pony Express trots through. The world is heavy, but tradition is born not from archaeology alone, it's born when people risk an experiment in hope.Balance is not stillness; it is riding the horse as it carries the sun across the line between light and darkness. This year, I choose to ride.Thanks for reading!

The Horse That Would Not LeaveThe Solar Horse That Wouldn't Let Me GoSome ideas arrive like strangers. Others show up like old friends you had forgotten, standing at the edge of memory, waiting. The Solar Horse came to me like that. I was reading along, tracing through the histories and mythologies of the Levant, when I found a reference to horses dedicated to the sun in ancient Judah. That was it. No explanation. No story. Just a brief note that they were there and then, later, they were gone. The more I searched, the thinner the record became, until there was almost nothing at all. And yet I couldn't let it go. Recognition hit me first, and obsession followed. It felt like remembering one of my childhood companions, one of those “imaginary” friends who was never entirely imaginary.The truth is: we don't know much. We have a few scattered pieces. The book of Kings tells us that Josiah tore down the stables near the temple where horses and chariots were kept for the sun. Archaeologists have uncovered small figurines of horses with sun disks pressed between their ears. A cult stand from Tanakh shows layers of sacred imagery, possibly Asherah at the base, guardians in the middle, and at the very top, a horse carrying the sun on its back. That's all. We can guess. We can imagine. But we can't reconstruct what was actually done, what prayers were said, or how those who made those offerings understood them. The fragments end exactly where the mystery begins.Still, that was enough. I wasn't frustrated by the gaps. I was fascinated. Awe and wonder rose up, along with a strange sense of homecoming. This was not just curiosity. It felt like invitation. The Solar Horse began showing up in my dreams. It walked with me in meditation. It carried vitality like sunlight into places that had felt dim and tired. Companion. Messenger. That is how I came to know it.Horses at the GatePart of what makes this image so striking is its place in the story of the temple. Picture yourself approaching Jerusalem's great sanctuary in the days before Josiah's reforms. Before you ever reached the outer courtyard, you would pass the stables. Horses and chariots stood there, dedicated to the sun. For many people, depending on their gender and social standing, that courtyard might have been as far as they could go. The stables themselves marked a threshold: animals and vehicles made holy, waiting at the edge of divine space.Josiah's purge is how we know this devotion existed at all. His campaign to centralize power into one temple, one priesthood, one story required tearing down the rest. The stables were destroyed. The horses were led away. The practice was erased from official memory. The king who claimed divine sanction for his rule rewrote the faith to fit his vision of empire. And the irony is that his rashness also led to Judah's downfall. His defeat on the battlefield opened the door to the exile. I admit I have little patience for Josiah. The texts celebrate him, but the story behind the story is harder to ignore. Propaganda always is. It is easier to blame exile on sin than to admit a king picked the wrong fight. But tucked inside that propaganda is a memory of the horses. Fragments and OfferingsThose votive figurines tell us something important: people loved this image. They shaped clay horses with sun-disks between their ears and left them at shrines. They carried them as offerings. They prayed through them. We may never know exactly what they asked for, but the practice was common enough that archaeologists find these figures again and again. That persistence says something. Symbols that matter endure.We see echoes elsewhere too. Across the region, sun gods were imagined as riders or charioteers. Shamash drove his team across the heavens. In other traditions, the sun itself mounted a horse. Mythology is not a single stream but a braided river, carrying many currents. The Solar Horse was one of them, important enough to leave marks in both text and artifact, even if its full story was never written down.That is where my research stalled. I could compare, speculate, draw parallels, but no complete account survives. And still, the image pressed in. Sometimes all scholarship can do is show the edges of the mystery. Beyond that, something else takes over.Dreams and VisitationsThe Solar Horse did not remain in my study notes. It came with me into sleep. It showed up in dreams. It walked through my inner grove in meditation. I began to feel its presence not as a historical curiosity but as a living archetype. Not a relic of the past, but a companion and a messenger in the present. It bore vitality. It carried messages. It insisted on relationship.This is where honesty matters. I cannot claim to be reconstructing an ancient devotion. I am not. What I have is an image, a handful of fragments, and a series of encounters that belong to the realm of unverified personal gnosis. Dreams. Meditations. Symbols that keep knocking until you answer. What I can do is name the difference. This is not history. This is mysticism. And still, it is real.Parallels and ResonancesOther traditions helped me make sense of the experience. In Tibetan and Mongolian practice, the Wind Horse carries the wish-fulfilling jewel, galloping across the sky. If you've ever seen a set of prayer flags, you've likely seen it printed there. In druid teaching, Nwyfre is the name given to the bright current of life-force that runs through everything. Scripture itself says of God:“He makes the clouds his chariot. He walks on the wings of the wind.”(Psalm 104:3, WEB)These resonances do not mean the Solar Horse is secretly the Wind Horse, or that the psalmist was sneaking in a horse reference. They mean that certain images rise again and again when people try to describe vitality, balance, and the presence of the Holy. They emerge not from theft but from convergence. The cosmos calls, and we answer in the languages we know.For me, the Solar Horse braided those threads together. My lunar practices taught me to listen. My earth-rooted practices taught me to stay. Through this image I learned something I had always lacked: how to move with solar energy, how to let vitality flow outward without burning myself or others. That is what the Horse began to teach me.Balance and the EquinoxThe more I sat with this image, the more I felt its call to balance. In many myths the sun's horse carried messages between realms, bearing souls from the land of the living to the land of the dead, and back again. That threshold role matters. As the Autumnal Equinox approaches, equal day and equal night, I cannot help but see the Horse holding the sun steady in its stride, refusing to collapse light into darkness or darkness into light. Balance is not compromise. It is courage: the willingness to walk with both radiance and shadow without making either an enemy.That is what the Solar Horse began to embody for me. A living archetype that refuses the binaries empire prefers: all light or all dark, all power or all surrender, all purity or all exile. Instead it moves between, carrying vitality where it is needed, guiding us to walk steady where extremes would tear us apart.Invocation and ReflectionThis is not about reviving a forgotten Judahite cult. It is about listening when a symbol knocks, when dreams return, when an image refuses to let you go. For me, that image has become prayer:Great Horse of the Sun, bearer of bright life, carry to us the strength we need for the work ahead. Lend courage to our words and compassion to our deeds. Bear our prayers across the wind to those who need them most. Return with the truths we avoid and the hope we have forgotten. Teach us to ride in balance, equal day and equal night, so the world may be healed by our passing.Recognition is not superstition. Sometimes it is grace returning in a form our lives can finally bear. I do not know who first pressed a sun-disk between a horse's ears and called it holy. I only know that when the image came, I felt at home, as if something old had found me again. When such a visitor arrives, do not rush to explain it away. Turn toward it. Test it. Walk with it for a season. Let it teach you courage. Let it show you balance. That is enough to begin.Thanks for reading!

Astrologer and Mystical Messages host Hilary Harley explains the impact of the eclipses of September 2025. These are part of a remarkable lunar cycle. How we move forward now is vital to our future experience. Eclipses are doorways to possibilities. If you are off track anywhere in your life, an eclipse can redirect you. However, when you are aligned with your path, eclipses offer support. September 7th and 21st mark the final eclipses of 2025. In Virgo, the September eclipses emphasize the future through grounded work, health practices, systematic preparation. Virgo is a mutable sign, meaning adaptable and versatile. Virgo asks us to look at our daily habits. Are they healthy? If not, we cannot be of optimal service to ourselves, let alone others. Healthy routines begin with our mental and spiritual wellbeing. To make sure we change up the regimens of lives, Radical Uranus figures largely in this eclipse cycle. In communicative Gemini, Uranus asks us to change how we think, speak and write, beginning with how we talk to ourselves. Watch your inner monologue. Now is the time to use affirmations, or try new and different ones. Practice makes perfect and Virgo IS practice, the how of the zodiac, the through line from beginning efforts to end results. However, Radical Uranus persists on flipping the narrative. Only days into the month, Uranus turns retrograde on Friday, September 5th, just two days before the Full Moon eclipse on the 7th. Its message: get your house in order before you criticize another. With the Sun in Virgo and Moon in Pisces, eclipse themes are control vs. surrender, detail vs. unified whole, analysis vs. belief, service vs. suffering. In short: control what you can and surrender the rest. If you refuse to heed the call, Uranus is tasked with bringing us back to our soul contract. No, this is not always fun. The September 21st eclipse at the very last degree of Virgo is unusually pronounced as the Sun enters Libra the next day, marking the Autumnal Equinox. Virgo rules health and regimens; Libra rules balance. Through healthy regimens, we are called to bring into balance the various facets of our lives: health, work, social, play, service, family and rest. Balance what pleases you in equal measure to being of service. If we get lost in life's minutiae and details, Virgo's dutiful drudgery, we neglect the divine dance awaiting us.

Hey Poison Friends!! I hope we are all staying well so far this (almost) Fall season. I know, the Autumnal Equinox won't be here until next month, but I am excited for Fall and spooky season and cooler weather. The one thing I do not like this time of year is the amount of viral and bacterial infections that seem to wage war on us all. One such bacterial agent is Streptococcus pyogenes or what you may hear called Group A Strep. This is the nasty that causes impetigo and strep throat (streptococcus pharyngitis) which can then lead to scarlet fever and rheumatic fever which can also lead to numerous complications like rheumatic heart disease and long term kidney dysfunction. All of that from strep throat or impetigo?? Yes, but fortunately we do not see these other complications as often thanks to antibiotics and preventative measures such as hand hygiene, isolation when contagious, and sanitation measures. It is still prevalent enough to cause a few thousand deaths here in America every year, however, and many more in countries who do not have good access to medical care and antibiotics. We are also discussing Invasive Group A Strep, because a strep infection can also lead to sepsis involving necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome. Both of these complications are life threatening. We need to cover the demise of one of my all time favorite creators in this episode as well, Jim Henson. He died of TSS resulting from an untreated strep infection and, as sad as this was, his story needs to be told so that others don't. I won't spoil this episode any further, but I want to include the last message he had written to be given to his five children after his death.“First of all, don't feel bad that I'm gone. While I will miss spending time with each of you, I'm sure it will be an interesting time for me and I look forward to seeing all of you when you come over. To each of you I send my love. If on this side of life I'm able to watch over and help you out, know that I will. If I can't, I'm sure I can at least be waiting for you when you come over. This all may sound silly to you guys, but what the hell, I'm gone—and who can argue with me?Life is meant to be fun, and joyous, and fulfilling. May each of yours be that—having each of you as a child of mine has certainly been one of the good things in my life. Know that I've always loved each of you with an eternal, bottomless love. A love that has nothing to do with each other, for I feel my love for each of you is total and all encompassing. Please watch out for each other and love and forgive everybody. It's a good life, enjoy it.”Thank you to all of our listeners and supporters!

Paul Grieco has a storied career in wine and hospitality, beginning in his family's Italian restaurant in Toronto and working his way to the heights of Manhattan dining rooms. He worked with the famed Danny Meyer and the-now celebrity chef Tom Colicchio when they opened the fabled Gramercy Tavern where Paul began as a server and eventually became beverage director. Despite all the accolades that come with hallowed halls of fine dining, Paul is most revered acclaimed and revolutionary wine bar Terroir and its now legendary Summer of Riesling. The guys had a chance to sit down with Paul and Tanner Walle of Valley Bar and Bottle when the Summer of Riesling hit Sonoma. We discuss the state of wine and hospitality in wide ranging and appropriately non-linear conversation. In short, the Summer of Riesling collided with International Grenache Day as we approached the Autumnal Equinox on the back porch of the tasting house…and the results are spectacular. [Ep340]
Greeting's heathens and witches,Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast…Mabon takes place on the Autumnal Equinox, when day and night are equal. Created in the late 1900s, Mabon is a newer festival, but cultures throughout the world have been celebrating the Autumn Equinox for thousands of years. It's a time of sharing and giving thanks, transition, preparing for winter, reflection, balance, and of course… feasting! Since Mabon is all about finding a balance, this is a great time to talk about grounding. Grounding (AKA earthing, rooting, or raising energy) helps us balance ourselves, like the idea of “go out and touch grass.” Grounding can help reduce stress and improve mental focus, as well as replenishing and casting off our own magical energy. So, hang out with us while we talk all about grounding and our personal experiences with it!

Erin Benzakein of Floret Flower Farm needs little introduction to most garden-minded listeners. She has been so instrumental is cultivating a flower-farmer and flower-farming economy in our country. Her innovative and dedicated seed research and breeding work of the past almost decade, however, is whole new lens through which to appreciate her work. Back in 2017, when I first interviewed Erin for the program & for The Earth in Her Hands, she was already a tireless advocate for local flowers, and for supporting more flower farmers and local-flower florists in our everyday lives here in the US. Through her on-farm and subsequently online flower farming Floret Workshops, for more than a decade, she has been renowned for encouraging and training eager new flower-farmer-florists in order to transform the cut flower industry from the multi-billion dollar large-corporate-owned international import (with little ecological or economic oversight) behemoth it had become, back into the more lovely, and loving, organic, locally-based circular and community oriented economy she envisioned it could be – and should be. Floret - once a flower farm and training center – is now more fully (and perhaps even more beautifully) described as “a family-owned flower farm and seed company specializing in breeding new cut flower varieties for gardeners, farmers & designers.” They add: “ Our thriving research & education farm is dedicated to giving flower lovers the tools & information they need to grow the gardens of their dreams.” In honor of the Autumnal Equinox, and its seeds of the next season feeling - I am so pleased to once again welcome Erin to Cultivating Place – just as Floret's free seed saving mini-course launches on their website. Erin shares much more about this newest heart of Floret's growing work. Join us! Cultivating Place now has a donate button! We thank you so much for listening over the years and we hope you'll support Cultivating Place. We can't thank you enough for making it possible for this young program to grow even more of these types of conversations. The show is available as a podcast on SoundCloud, iTunes, and Google Podcast. To read more and for many more photos, please visit www.cultivatingplace.com.
This episode dives deep into Libra season and the Autumnal Equinox. We explore the basics and the nuances of shadow season, and the balancing act it calls for. We'll explore the powerful connection to Lilith and Aphrodite and, as always, practical steps to harness Libra's energy for growth and well-being. The Autumnal Equinox occurs September 22nd in the Northern Hemisphere, when the Sun enters Libra. It's a time of decreased energy, encouraging restoration and reflection. It marks the beginning of "shadow season." It seeks balance, harmony, and neutrality. Channelled Guidance This season is about seeking balance and integration that will shake out by December 22nd. Themes include harmony, empowered communication, and emotional healing. The Super New Moon Eclipse in Libra on October 2nd encourages self-love and stepping into your power. The Full Moon in Aries on October 17th ignites healed wounds of worthiness and leadership qualities. This is a time for deep transformation and letting go of outdated narratives. Embrace the concept of "Lilith Language" - using your words to establish boundaries and express your needs. Libra Season (September 22nd - October 21st) Libra is represented by the scales of justice and ruled by Venus. This season can also be deeply connected to Lilith. Key themes: balance, relationships, communication, beauty, and advocacy. Libra asks: Is this or that fair? And fair to whom? Balanced Libra Energy Strives for equity and fairness in all areas of life. Expresses beauty, love, and sensuality in a grounded way. Uses clear communication and diplomacy to navigate challenges. Imbalanced Libra Energy Avoids making decisions due to fear of being wrong. Resorts to people-pleasing and self-abandonment. Uses excessive charm and superficiality to mask deeper issues. How to Balance Your Libra Energy Cultivate self-love and equity in all relationships in your life. Learn to walk your talk and be comfortable with boundaries. Advocate for yourself and others. Embrace your voice and unique perspective. Use "glamor magic" - expressing yourself authentically through appearance and presentation. Hydration and Physical Wellbeing in Libra Season Libra is associated with the kidneys, so proper hydration is crucial. Aim to drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily. Add a teaspoon of pink salt to water for electrolyte balance. Get on the mat at UnicornWellnessStudio.com Practical Tips for Libra Season Ground yourself with movement, nature, and root vegetables. Maintain consistent exercise routines. Eat green and purple vegetables for enhanced communication. Wear necklaces, scarves, and malas to amplify your voice. Use the word "fuck" to clear your throat chakra (seriously!). Experiment with a clean girl aesthetic or explore a darker, more gothic expression. Shift "I'm sorry" to "thank you" to break the habit of apologizing for existence. Embrace scents like lily, vanilla, and lavender. Work with crystals like rose quartz, black tourmaline, and amethyst.
