I got dumped on Valentine’s Day💔 . Well actually it was late the night before but once the conversation was over it was technically #ValentinesDay. . I ended up spending my Valentines Day going to sushi with his sisters at his friends sushi bar. I had to explain to his family and friends that he had broken up with me. After sushi I drank wine with his sisters and mom as I lived my best sad girl life. When he got back to the house after work he had brought me a love fern. I KID YOU NOT. Okay not actually a fern but it was a plant that he said we could have sort of “joint custody” over. (We obviously has stellar emotional communication skills) . Honestly I was more embarrassed during this time than anything else but his family and friends were so damn kind and loving to me that day that it changed my whole perspective on the holiday. It reminds me that love is everywhere and isn’t solely based on a romantic partner. And that loving relationships can grow in many ways because even though this happened over a decade ago that failed relationship resulted in a friendship I still cherish. It resulted in the deepest kindness from his mother who let me live with her after my mother passed away. It resulted in friendships and adventure-stories with his friends. Our failed romantic love turned into multiple other loves that I hold so dear to my heart. . What love story of yours comes to mind when you read this? . . . . . . . . 📷 @sierra_selene_ #lovestorys #lovestory #moodygrams #magicalthinking #spirituality #loveandlight #love #prismphotography #magical_shots #magical_shots_ #positivevibes #positivethinking #positiveenergy One year my fever sweats from the flu were so bad the whole room smelled like stinky cheese from the mac and cheese dinner I had before my symptoms started. I was in bed for a week missing out on my in-laws visiting and a trip to Disneyland. This year, with the launch of my magic manifestation courses and podcast fast approaching, I have been working non-stop, even from bed on the weekends. I still have a lot to get done, so I can't risk getting the flu. That's why I got my annual flu shot for the second year in a row. As someone who seemed to catch it every year prior, it's reassuring to know this weekend I get to be a lazy #Leo snuggled in bed by choice, and not because I have the flu.

I have to vigorously shake my hands when this happens. It feels like pounds of pent up electrical currant trapped in my hands and shaking them allows a mental and physical release for me and let's me know what is happening. Soon after shaking them out and letting @sierra_selene_ know why I was doing my hand shakes I got a sudden terrible headache that lasted only a few minutes. This usually will happen if the spirit contacting me has passed away from trauma to the head or ended their physical life after a life long battle with mental illness. We were in old town Portland which has a long and dark history so this didn't exactly surprise me if a spirit would contact me. . During this time @imjenthedoula was actually out of the room and had gone down to the hotel lobby to request a iron. Moments later she burst into the room and told us how a woman had had a seizure in the elevator and 911 was being called. This would have tied into the time I was experiencing the headache. . This was a first for me of experiencing symptoms for a living person while getting the physical cue from a spirit a few minutes prior. Usually it’s one or the other. Upon reflection I believe it was the woman's spirit guide trying to warn of the upcoming situation. . When I do my readings for clients I work with their spirit guides. The atmosphere I create is intimate, protected and uniquely theirs.

Made my way to @cacaoportland in @downtownpdx to find the perfect pairings for my astrology lovers!  You can create your own box of chocolates for your Valentine, enjoy a Drinking Chocolate Flight and take a bottle of Chocolate Saffron Body Oil home with you *wink wink* . Below are my chocolate picks for each zodiac sign. . Spicy Passion- Described as "sunshine in your mouth" I would have to agree! This chocolate is actually a white chocolate with passion fruit and a lil spice.  Perfect for fiery #Leo and passionate #Scorpio. . Earl Grey- Tea lovers rejoice because this one is like a London Fog in chocolate form. Pair it with a new book and gift to hard-working #Capricorn and #Virgo for their next cozy night in. . Crunchy Nutty PDX- A good crunch and perfect nut ratio to balance with the chocolate.  Reminds me of childhood comfort but in a sophisticated way.  Love this for warm-hearted #Taurus and nurturing #Cancer. . Lemon Verbena- This has a less fruity lemon taste and more herbal lemon notes. It tasted like a chocolate you would have with espresso in a cafe in Italy. Ideal for intellectual #Gemini and travel loving #Sagittarius. . Honey Saffron Caramel- Definitely the most "oh my god" reaction with each bite but in the best way possible! This gem was unexpected and hit all the flavor notes.  Home run for adventurous #Aries and imaginative #Pisces. . Black Velvet Vegan- Timeless dark chocolate decadence and deliciously #vegan. This is a perfect match for humanitarian #Aquarius and romantic #Libra. .

Gemini's are often labeled as "split personalities" or "Dr.Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" I find Gemini moons are often split in their own inner struggles of needing to be intellectually stimulated or we get bored which can make us inconsistent with our emotions. This can read as being a "wild-card" when we're "in a mood" The best way to handle a Gemini moon? Let us express our emotions how we need to on a case by case basis. Sometimes that can be us needing to talking it out for an hour with you. Other times we need to lock ourselves in the bathroom while we soak in the tub and read a book. . What is your moon sign? Comment below and I'll reply with some fun info on it. . . . . . . . . . . 📷 @sierra_selene_ #moonsigns #moonsign #moonsigngemini #astrology #astrologist #astrologists #zodiacposts #zodiacfacts #witchywoman #witchyvibes #dailyom #itsamoodywednesday #moodygrams #moodyports #moodyportraits #portlandblogger #pdxblogger I hope your New Moon #bathritual includes rose gold glitter✨🌚 . Time to set your intentions for this lunar cycle. I know it can be repetitive to look at it like this so think of it as a “seed” instead. What do you want to plant? We’re going to watch your seed grow over this lunar cycle. It will take daily care but I know you’re going to manifest some badass magic and if you need my guidance I’m here! . Did you know I do New Moon readings?

While shooting with @sierra_selene_ I told her how I felt this deck and I were too stubborn for each other. I wanted to give it some more time but I’m not feeling connected to it. It’s really beautiful and I know it has some amazing love and guidance to give but I feel it’s meant for someone else! . @sierra_selene_ said she’s experienced this with decks before too. It can be frustrating when you fall for a deck visually and realize it’s not “the one”. Sort of like dating amiright? . So I want to purpose a group tarot/oracle deck swap! . If you have a deck you’d like to swap comment below and I’ll arrange a lil group to get things going. Open to newbies in tarot and experienced. I trust those interested have positive intentions and are sending their decks with love and light BUT I still suggest everyone cleanses their deck before sending it off and cleansing it upon receiving. I added a lil template in my IG stories on my favorite ways to cleanse my deck. New earring designs are being released this week! I hope you like black and gold✨ There’s only a few of the crescent moon necklaces left. And yes there will be restocks of #Libra and #Aries . Thinking about incorporating some delicate crystal chain chokers to layer with the #zodiac pendants. What do you think?? . . Follow my jewelry page for more zodiac pieces @charmed_bynicoleburron . Where do you source your crystals? I have a few spots I trust and love but I’m always looking to add to my list. . Currently on the hunt for the perfect crystal angel to represent my mama. Haven’t found the right one yet. . I added a link to my contact form in my IG bio. You’ll find all the info for readings there. Thank you to everyone who tuned in to @1051thebuzz this morning to hear my segment and will see if @aboutbuck can send me a link to it for those who asked if there’s a way to listen online💞 . . . . 📷 @joshua_abels Your girl is going to be on the radio tomorrow👋🏼 Got a chance to get woo-woo with @aboutbuck this morning and do a mini palm reading for him along with some chat on being an empath. Tune into @1051thebuzz at 6:50am and 7:50am. Let me know in the comments what you want us to talk about next!👇🏼 . . 📷 @itsdiane.co Super Blood Moon in the sign of Leo♌️ Tonight is going to be stupid special. Make sure to properly pay tribute to this energy. . We’ve been reflecting and cleaning up both our physical possessions and emotional “baggage”. Thank you Marie Kondo, you’ve reminded us to ask “Does this bring me joy?” . Did we get lost in reflection and spend too much time in our past this month? Was our time there helpful in finding our joy for today and tomorrow? What can we remove from our “baggage”, say “thank you” to and leave behind? . I suggest we all find was to practice grounding these next few days. . 🔸Tips🔸 . ▫️Plant your feet in the earth (sand, grass, dirt) for 20 mins. . ▫️Take #Leo leadership in your life, reminding yourself that your path is not meant to imitate another persons life path. . ▫️Gentle réflection on the intentions you set during the new moon. If your intentions were not manifested do not focus on the “why not” instead write down what distracted you from them (and hang onto this because we will use this in the next ritual) . The lunar eclipse happens tonight at 9:16 PST in my neck of the woods. Who has special plans tonight to view it? 🌚🌝 . . . . . . . #leomoon #mooninleo #supermoon #bloodmoon #bloodmooneclipse #moonphases #moonpics #leo♌ #leozodiac #moonmagic #moonmagick #witchyvibes #eclecticwitch #astrologyposts (Part 2/2) There is no spell to bring my mother back, but we communicate in other ways now and recently I made peace with her message that she is child energy even now. I’ve concluded her soul is most at peace in this way. She had a very abusive upbringing and she was never able to fully grow up and society failed her by telling her her value was only her outer beauty so she was taken advantage of in many ways. . . The light: My son. I made the choice to become a mother but I had to do it in a healthy way. I work on my mental health everyday for him and honestly some days I need that because there were many years as a child that no one supported me in that area and as a young adult there were many years I didn’t do it for myself so being accountable for my child pushes me forward and keeps me out of the dark. (Part 1/2) The vulnerability you shared with me in response to my IG stories yesterday was breathtaking. . I learned so much about so many of you. I often hesitate to share the dark parts of my life since I spend so much of my energy now chasing the light. But I know I seek the light because of the dark so in sharing my experiences I may be able to help others not feel so alone in their darkness. . The dark: I have been mothering since I was 9 years old. The time I realized the dynamics between my mother and I were not healthy was when I had to beat her boyfriend with my baseball bat because he was trying to choke her to death. After that it was a slew of saving her from attempted suicides. I spent most of my younger life feeling like I needed to mother my own mother in order to have a relationship with her. Which I was desperate for since my first stepmother had no interest in me and was emotionally abusive (yes you read that correctly, I’ve had two) And here’s where society failed me. No one told me otherwise. People told me my mother had addiction and mental health problems but no one told me that it didn’t make it okay for our relationship to be that way. They just continued to let it happen. I recently found out I am a humming bird. Well, I am a humming bird and an elephant. If you're reading this you're probably asking "what does that mean?!" As an #AirbnbPartner I was able to take a class about Dosha as part of their Airbnb Experiences here in Portland. I am empathic and a bit antisocial like the elephant but I am also a mom and creative thinker like the humming bird (psst most moms will get extra humming bird energy since children are basically all humming bird) I took away knowledge to help balance my stress, better conserve my energy and tips on essential oils and foods that will keep me in balance. My Dosha experience inspired my protein filled almond yogurt bowl lunch and researching ways to add more ginger and cinnamon to my routine. Big thank you to @Airbnb, our teacher April and @meagankate for living that woo-woo life with me. Who else has discovered their Dosha? #AirbnbExperiences “Strive to gain or win something by defeating or establishing superiority over others who are trying to do the same.” The definition of ‘compete’ Doesn’t that sound f*cking toxic??? It does to me. Yet here we are on the daily competing with others in various ways. And I don’t want to dismiss the competitive nature society has placed on us. We grew up in it and often without a choice. . . These days I see people create imaginary competition with one another and it stems from self doubt and fear. You shouldn’t fear you are not enough because of someone else. . . Because here’s the deal, when you try to compete with another person for a title/trophy/gold star/worth you’ve created in your mind the only person who can actually loose is you. But the good news is that the only person who can win is you. So defeat that self-doubt and fear. . . Here’s how I to tell that ugly competitive, self-doubt feeling to f*ck off: I pause and take a deep inhale for 5 seconds and then exhale for 5 seconds. I try to identify why I feel threatened. I ask “why does this person make me feel less and why does the idea of them being beneath me lift me up?” Then I write my feelings down in my iPhone notes or journal and constructively see how I can make myself feel secure in these areas. . . And that’s my rant so thanks for reading this far. Now time to go burn some sage and rub crystals all over myself🌚 photographer @itsdiane.co Her name is Eos. You've met her before. Maybe by another name, Aurora. She is the goddess of dawn, of new beginnings. She will be our guide, the light in the darkness as we go into the new year and new moon. . . To call upon her for guidance we must wake before dawn. I know that sounds incredibly early but since it’s winter dawn happens a lot later.  For myself it's ‪around 7:15 am‬ so I will be waking ‪tomorrow at 6:45 am‬ to prepare accordingly. . . Wrap yourself in your white garment (robe, cardigan, kimono) and head outside bringing your pink/blush roses with you and the small glass jar. Make note you'll want to hold the roses in your arms as an offering to Eos. Face east and clear your mind of busy thoughts.  Picture yourself coming face to face with Eos as the dawn light starts to wash over you.  Focus on the feeling of hope and encouragement she provides you.  Take your time with her. . . Once you are ready use the glass jar to collect some morning dew on the plants or objects near you. The morning dew is tears she sheds in memory of her lost son. Take the roses with you after you feel they have soaked up enough of the dawns morning rays. . . Follow the Eos Elixir recipe in my IG stories (too long to add to this caption). Spray this beautiful elixir during your new moon bath ritual, on your moonstone jewelry, fluorite and rose quartz (after you cleanse them under the new moon), around your altar, during your meditation, while you write out your intentions for this moon cycle and in the morning when you need hope and encouragement from Eos.  During this moon cycle take note if you see any white feathers on your walks outside.  Eos is often depicted with white angel wings and you can take the finding of white feathers as a sign from her she is with you. . . I'll be checking in on my IG stories tomorrow when I wake up to meet Eos, who will be there with me? . . . . . 📸 @joshua_abels If you want to incorporate more magic for the New Year then the New Moon in Capricorn tomorrow is your time to shine🌚 . Capricorn’s are efficient workers. Time is money babes and we’re all busy so I wanted to get your shopping list to you today. This New Moon will have some extra guidance. We can work with the new moon for three days. Here’s your shopping list👁‍🗨 . . -pink or blush roses . . -moonstone (ideally if you have a piece of jewelry too), fluorite, rose quartz . . -small glass jar . . -small spray bottle (preferably glass) . . -white clothing (can be a white robe, kimono, cardigan, something white to wrap yourself in) . . . Tomorrow I’ll be sharing the instructions for you! Any guesses on this particular ritual?
