Taylor Swift as a Healing Modality
Yesterday, I was standing in front of my altar, looking at my wall.
Recently I was reflecting on my time in update NY 5 years later.
I realized if I wouldn’t have gone there, I wouldn’t have the 2 pieces of art above my altar made by friends.
I wouldn’t have met some of my favorite people.
Hindsight is 2020, perhaps. #wink
But in the midst of it…I was moving through lessons of loss (Saturn in Scorpio)
From death, losing my peace of mind, heartbreak, to social exile, My ‘reputation’ was in flames. #wink
More than anything - I lost myself.
Over these 5 years,
I took my secret hobby of Astrology and dug deeper. Mostly cuz I was staring at myself in the mirror Michael Scott style saying “WHY ARE YOU THE WAY YOU ARE.”
I started therapy with a dope woman named Amy. She called me out when I’d come into the session with a “Here’s a funny story!” and in the end she’d be like “um…that’s traumatic, Neha, not funny.”
I learned Human Design and discovered I’m not meant to just go out + initiate. I’m meant to respond, do what lights me up, and give myself permission to change my mind.
I’ve learned to breathe and move into my body, Inhale, hold at the top, exhale
In 2018, I discovered the magic that is Taylor Swift from my mentor Kristen Jett of Starlit Strategies #TaylorSwiftAsAHealingModality
5 years later -I’ve died a 1000 inner deaths, I’m reborn every time. More me than ever.
All the lessons of loss taught me that I can never lose what’s true and real; that treasure lives within. #LessonsOfScorpio
I know some people aren’t a fan of ‘everything happens for a reason’ cuz sometimes life is like ‘what the fuck’ #lol
But staring at this art above my altar…I’m thinking, whatever happens in life, we can make art from it.
Express ourselves. Tell our stories. Feel our feels, process, and let go. #LessonsOfLeo #Gate56
Turning shit into gold. #alchemy
Turning our lessons into purpose, karma to dharma.
Making art from our pain. then learning to make art through our joy. (cuz both are real and valid)
And forever, living a yummy life <3
