🌱What Abundance Looks Like🌱 You've seen me dump some of my older art from 2017 here. This is one of my last pieces from that year. I was in a more positive, wishful state of mind. When I see nature, I see abundance. Cash flow is a topic of discussion when it comes to #abundance, but I like to think deeper than that. When I see abundance, I see #peace, #freedom, #travel, and #relaxation. That's what I see when I think of abundance. Does some of that take money? Sure. Sometimes, I think that abundance is a mindset knowing that you have what you need and that anything is possible. I reached a point in my #healing that #anythingispossible and I believe that. Going from not fostering a future when you've been through so much to thinking about all the exciting things you can't wait to experience in life is a step towards growth. This was made 12/23/2017 When the Sun was in #Capricorn, #MooninPisces. Today is 6/23/2019, #SuninCancer, #MooninPisces. Look at that! 1.5 years later posting in #CancerSeason. #GrowthMindset #artthatheals #artmagic #healer #blackart #blackartists #spirituality #spritualgrowth #soulgrowth #innerwork #naturelovers #astrology #lunarmagic #lunar https://www.instagram.com/p/BzCuI4QAt6Z/?igshid=1bak4eh5681sh

πŸ‘€πŸ”΅Stay Woke, Keep Ya Third Eye OpenπŸ”΅πŸ‘€ "Redbone" by @__childishlambino kept playing in my mind and one day after work, I looked at the Moon and I envisioned a wolf howling at the Moon and having all-seeing sight. All I could think was 🎢"Now don't you close yours eyessssss"🎢 not knowing that this was a whole ass #oracle. All I wanted was this alien-like self portrait with a wolf. I didn't know that my friends were fake, I didn't know that the wolf was a spiritual guide meaning to watch who you have close to you, and I didn't know that me pairing the song with the 3rd eye chakra meant that **I** needed to keep my #thirdeye open. The song was for me, the wolf was my spirit guide at the time, and my third eye was starting to open. Furthermore the Moon on June 12, 2017 was in fact a #waninggibbous like I drew and it was in #capricorn, just like my birth #moonincapricorn. I did not realize any of this until I researched today. #bodypositiveart #blackartists #artistsofcolor #fatart #astrology #lunarmagic #lunar #artthatheals #artmagic #spirituality #spiritualart #gemini #spiritualguide #wolf #croptop #plussizeart #childishgambino #chakra #chakrahealing https://www.instagram.com/p/BzCnKN2gf6q/?igshid=ksy90p99yah3

πŸ”΄βš Protect Your Energy, Stand Your Groundβš πŸ”΄ I painted this June 2017, when people around me online and IRL were constantly draining me of my #energy. So someone that I trusted as a "friend" advised me to make an "art spell". What I didn't realize was that the #energyvampires (a concept I hadn't heard of at the time) were closer than I thought. I was new to the spiritual community and I hadn't recognized my gifts yet. I didn't recognize my worth, so how was I going to know that people were siphoning energy, time, and materials away from me?! I created this piece to show myself having the power to "shield" the dark negative forces around me into peaceful energy. Plus, I was pretty stoked at the technique I did with the dark colors to make it look like an outer space black hole! Additionally, red is one of my favorite colors and I like it to wear it when I want to feel powerful and it's no surprise I picked a #rootchakra color. #shielding #artthatheals #artspell #artthatheals #spirituality #artistsofcolor #blackartists #bodypositiveart #spiritualart #soulgrowth #protection #magic #manifestation #SelfWorth #selfesteem #confidence #mixedmedia https://www.instagram.com/p/BzCRzdMghq_/?igshid=1i5b1bezec128

🌊🌊Abundant Waters🌊🌊 This is a collage that I created December 9, 2017. I would say that the year 2017 was a turbulent, but life-altering year for me. Year 27 included a mental health crisis, leaving an abusive love relationship and community, opening up my spiritual abilities, and taking a deeper dive in my healing journey. For this piece, this was inspired by how this year I was dreaming about #Yemaya alot when I was nearing the exit of the abuse. It was around Cancer season that I started having those dreams amd my intuition increased more. I was seeking comfort, guidance, and protection intuitively. In October 2017, I was able to move. By the time I did this piece a few months later, I had been living with my mother for almost 2 months. I secured a physical safe space, but I still felt shaken and startled. I believe that #abundance in this sense is being surrounded by kind people that mean you no harm, having access to safe shelter, being in your body, having the ability to be in environment that encourage your healing, and being divinely protected. I believe that Yemaya wanted that for me and that's why intervention stepped in. Now that it's #CancerSeason 2019, I wanted to share this picture to pay homage to where I've been and to acknowledge that, yes I am now safe. For that, I am thankful. #protection #art #healing #mentalhealth #cleanse #spritualgrowth #spirituality #survivor #abusesurvivor #empowerment #shareyourstory https://www.instagram.com/p/BzCPTtCgMH3/?igshid=1lu2x59spfz5o

More in the #fullmooninsagittarius #fullmoon #strawberrymoon chronicles, I did a release ceremony. I was in an abusive relationship with a person that broke me down psychologically, mentally, and tried to control me emotionally and financially. I knew her since I was 18 years old and spent the majority of my 20's with her. Although we are not together, they affected my self-esteem greatly. When I attended a workshop on Fat Love and Relationships at the NAAFA conference this weekend, I brought them up and the facilitator acknowledged that the psychological abuse I experienced was confirmed that I was "fed bullshit". I'm not going to elaborate fully on everything that my ex did, but one of the things that she would do is make up rumors that other people were making up hurtful comments about my weight when it was her saying those things all along. Then she would appoint herself as if she was the savior and the good girlfriend as if she was the one uplifting me when I did the work to uplift myself all along. I realized that her actions still affected me even though I won by leaving the relationship, so my goal was to use this energy to release her. She no longer has power over my life. My #ancestors are handling her. #itsabovemenow and #iwon. This release ritual, I wrote everything I felt and everything she did to me in the letter rather than writing long statuses or blogs about it, went outside and prayed to the ancestors, and then I ripped the letter and burned it in a pot to truly let it go. I will follow up with #cordcutting #meditation and #cutandclear rituals. I am speaking as a #survivor to help others and documenting this process so that if they need help, they know what to do. #selfcare #selfempowerment #releaseceremony #lunar #abusesurvivor #victory #changeyournarrative #rewriteyourstory #inspiration #narcissticabuseawareness #blogger #Writer #psblogger #selfesteem #ritual #plussizedating https://www.instagram.com/p/By17YTuAyvi/?igshid=7n0zx7847h9n

So today, I decided to take advantage of this #fullmooninsagittarius #strawberrymoon power through writing down my goals and dreams and laying my crystals out to charge outside tonight. My heart has felt so full. My Ancestors kept telling me as this Moon was approaching during the NAAFA conference "Be prepared". So I'm doing that. The key to this time is all about expansion and "It's time". It's time for me to live out my true purpose. The things that I get emotional and cry tears of joy about as I think about achieving goals and living out my purpose in helping others through being my authentic self. The world is big and the possibilities are endless. The experiences I've lived and intuition I have have guided me to this point. Now it's time to make those dreams to reality. All I'm saying is that I have plans and y'all need to stay tuned. Enjoy the ride. #goals #dreams #psblogger #selfhelp #selfempowerment #activism #blackgirlmagic #astrology #witchesofinstagram #manifestation #ancestors #entrepreneur #purpose #lifepath #Writer #healer #getready #lunarmagic #plussize #intuition #goaldigger https://www.instagram.com/p/By1ndjWgJlG/?igshid=oop44mnyj4fi

This is a PSAπŸ“£πŸ“£πŸ“£ Interrupting your scheduled programming to show off my new buttons to let you know that I'm "Large and In Charge " and to tell you to "Don't Diet, Be Happy". I'm letting the world know that I sit in my truth as an abundantly bodied individual and for all my fat royalty, y'all can remain in your truth, too!

What can I say? I'm looking AND feeling pretty fabulous. It's been awhile since I took the time to put some makeup on and take a few selfies. The lesson in all this is take time to adorn yourself. When you take the time to make yourself look good, you feel good, too. #selfcare #plussize #fatpositive #BodyPositive #beauty #venus #librarising #femme πŸ’…β€ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu9irsLBnjflsjd7MXPCQjZoBTD2PgI_nq9GzE0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h0j47xgcf3lg

It's been awhile since I've posted pictures on my social media, but first I want to say #HappyThanksgiving2018! Also, remember to do the best you can to stay in a positive mood today, don't let anyone bring you down. Additionally, remember that you are loved. Holidays are really hard for people that don't have family or have toxic or unaccepting family and I want to let you know that if you are reading this and you are having a hard holiday, you are loved. Your God, Higher Power, the Universe, a friend that is important to you... You are loved. Lastly, if you can find something to be thankful for and hold on to that. No matter how rough life gets, there's always one thing to smile on. Whether it's something positive that is happening in your life or something that you are looking forward to in the future, if you are thankful for it, hold on to that great feeling. Stay thankful and stay blessed this season. #happyholidays #thanksgiving2018 #family #makeup #spirituality #positivity #positive #BodyPositive #fatpositive #blackgirlmagic #blackfatfemme #fall #fall2018 #motivation #thankful #wordsasmedicine #loved https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqf4-48gITS8Rqtn8LTpOpmiHUR8oDSadZlDMk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1djsus4cz7ztp
