A Walk in The Park

Whenever I feel especially restless, I like to go on photography walks. The connection to my body and the earth helps me ground, and the chance at catching something neat on the camera keeps me going. I have a rich language of personal symbolism, which I use to interpret what appears on my path. What a dragonfly means to me may be different from what it means to you! Looking at these photos and my interpretations in retrospect, I find this to be an excellent method of divination and simplified storytelling.

Pink and green, tranquility, growth, balance

In June of 2020 I committed to my healing journey and self-development with a good teacher.

I had to choose between the lifestyle I had been living.

Again, strange berries option two. Judgment.

Or a new one.

I found a new home, here in Florida.

Light on the forest floor, rebirth, hope

Where there was more “light on the forest floor” for me to grow with.

Lichen, organization, making use of the knowledge of the past, teamwork across borders

I worked with a new community

I practiced and meditated and journaled and sang and ate and exercised and talked and did everything I thought was right for my healing.

Because I was very sick

But now, I’m doing much better.

And because of all of that, I’m growing in new ways.

I have a strong NeptuneUranus theme in my astrology, which means I want visions and I want them now! That can be a real issue with addiction. Now I have the clarity to have beautiful, real, and grounded, amazing experiences.
