Friday Rise

i hope friday meets you well, Reader!

💫 Where emotions meet the moon

I spent a good portion of my life wanting to wash away emotions. I wanted to become a robot—gliding through the day numb, dissociating into books and TV, flying to planets unknown.

I have what I affectionately call busy brain syndrome. It’s busy, fast, rude, and loud.

It wasn’t until after I broke off my wedding, moved across the country, and restarted my life in 2014—when I finally began healing—that I started to embrace the fact that I’m a crier.

My default emotion sometimes feels like it’s crying. Happy tears. Sad tears. Life happening tears. Tired tears.

Later on, I realized that part of my emotional waves—ones I couldn’t explain—were influenced by my astrological placements. The moon affects me deeply. I’m a Cancer rising, and I have seven placements in air signs. I’m just designed to exist in a constant ebb and flow.

One of the cool things about emotions, is that they are just part of our human experience. And I believe for many of us, part of our journey is learning what to do with them. How to feel, embrace and live with them. Here's a talk that Jenn and I have about moving through emotions and learning to flip our mindset on the things that get us hooked.
