+ A reminder about Saturday’s Vernal Equinox Event at the Naval Cemetery Landscape from 5-7PM RSVP here

I recently got to do one of my sweet and small tattoo flash for Ollie. I have to say that my 2026 is looking less like 2016 and more like 2019. The first three weeks of March have me around people and doing activities, jobs, and extracurriculars that were abound leading up to the pandemic. Unprompted. Unsought. Just arriving into a moment and going oh this is familiar when was the last time ?…2019…the come back around is like a simultaneous tickle and an itch: I’m laughing half-batting it away only to feel the sensation travel through my entire body, delivering a wake up call. I am not sentimental so the most I can conjure is that 2019 was a fabulous and terrible year. I was drowning in the nefarious and was blissfully unaware because I was doing so much of what I love while being in love. A learning moment. To be reminded of that time right now is very entertaining and is some cautionary wind blowing through my brain, heart, and sea of qi FOR SERIOUS. The three tan tiens are spiraling. I had everyone do the full Ploughing the Land into swallowing the saliva and turning it into the golden orb that you spin through the three tan tiens in my Tuesday morning class because of it (iykyk.) But mostly the outcome this time around is I love my life whether I’m good at it or not. I live. I love what I love. Reminders are powerful.

+ Some spots still available for Louise’s Sunday Hypno meets Tarot’s the Lovers

sign up here

On Wednesday night Louise had us traverse our unconscious minds, guiding us through the imagery and scenarios she had developed to introduce us to how we are holding the archetype of the Lovers in our lives. Apparently another name for this card is The Choice, and much of the conversation by the group leading up to the hypnosis was reflecting on choice and desire. I had spent the morning in the theater where I’ll be showing Believer with Molly Ross, looking at costume drafts by Camilla Carper, and talking to lighting designer Maggie Heath. A room full of waiting for me to articulate what I want. Even myself waiting for the me that holds onto that information.

Early in the year I had an astrology ready by ry notaras who told me that I need to “sleep on” any decisions. Nothing rash for me in 2026 (or at least the first half). I’m not one to sit around on my desire only because my desire feels very specific. It rises up in a particular way, and I see it as a call to action. Louise placed us in our pelvises, with our root chakras, and I saw the 8 holes of the sacrum open up to show me the universe. A tiny version of myself sent my arms and my head through some of the holes. I saw the Milky Way when I poked my head out. Each holes is related to one of the elements that make up the bagua that are used for the I Ching. I was inside of and moving through the entire material makeup nestled in my own sacrum.

Sleeping on what I want seems to add an earthy depth to the desire. I wake up and it’s not that my mind has been changed, it’s that I continuing to taste it on my tongue. We are starting to inch our way to the fire (as in summer. The tongue/taste is connected to the fire element), but first we sit in the Wooden Spring with our eyes. We see what we want and we see the road it will lead us down. We see as we begin to step. I find so much pleasure in the act of desire as well. I like to be inside a magnetism: it’s a bubbly, fizzy sensation to me. I feel so motivated by it. How fun to take something in that is giving me life and inspiration. Tell me more. To then be in that for a little longer and a little longer and a little longer turns the moment into a satisfaction for myself. Before I even pursue I am sated.

Spring Turtle Tree (25 min, standing) Starting with holding tree and moving into turtle, back into tree and once again into turtle. Spiraling the three tan tiens. The tree practice is also working to draw the energy up the spine into the brain and the heart centers. Finishing with some tendon activation for springtime.
