"Apolitical Art Does Not Exist" Diego Rivera

Celia Cruz

#Chanfle. No contaba con mi astucia" Que viva Chespirito--Icono de muchos #latinoamericanos que esperabamos anciosos las tardes por reirnos a carcajadas con este heroe de nosotros. Haciendonos reir y soñar desde los 1970's hasta siempre.

<3  I am forever blessed to have shared so much love, passions and vision of life with so many brothers, sisters and loves from the warm land of Jamaica. 

Choose empowering beliefs 

In the process of changing beliefs, choose beliefs that are empowering to your soul. A good way to know what belief will be empowering is to simply ask yourself how you feel about adding the new belief. If you feel a strong connection with a new belief, such as feelings of excitement, it will probably be a very good choice of a belief to implement. Make a conscious effort to purge all beliefs that are less than satisfying. Understand also that as you become a more conscious human being, changing your beliefs will become a much easier, more natural process.

Peace & Blessings, Our Journey to Balance 

So the first time I saw this mural I was happy to see some art in my neighborhood (that wasn’t removed by the authorities) but two nights later I found out this had been put up by the #Flatbush and Nostrand Junction #BusinessImprovementDevelopment or #BID. I have had bad experiences with #BIDs across #NYC so my thoughts are biased but damn it sucks that nobody in the Junction community (that I asked) knew that this was unfolding in our neighborhood —many of us did notice some construction work and new lam posts, but no idea of the reasons behind it. So my question is how can the unknown key players actively involved in the decision-making process of the Flatbush/Nostrand Junction BID intend to improve and ‘beautify’ my community if they haven’t even asked me or non (or very few) of my fellow neighbors what that means for us?!! -_-’ I just hope I don’t see any of the long-time businesses or tenants pushed out of their locales&homes. #rantsaboutthechangesinmycommunity (at The Junction - Flatbush/Nostrand)

Different platforms have been offered, and thanks to the people in those settings and self-confidence, I’ve been able to grow. This is personal. But believing in the self is the most important tool one has to create change: in society, in your community -your beautiful and fierce community- in your mind, body and soul. 

Black Moon is in Libra and is the best moment to set intentions to start new life projects, explore deep love and self-love. 

This picture of Mother Water captured in Portland, Maine frames this transition so beautifully.
