I Turn 25 This Year. I Casually Wear Sarees When I Go Out And I Can Cook Just About Anything. I Drink

i turn 25 this year. i casually wear sarees when i go out and i can cook just about anything. i drink turmeric water on an empty stomach and water my plants dutifully.

today i made lemon pepper chicken soup, i spent my afternoon deshelling walnuts while listening to carnatic music and doing abhyanga with my favourite ayurvedic oil. i have a long way to go in terms of where i want to be in life but somehow, at 25, i have become/am becoming a woman who is everything i never thought i could/would be as a teenager.

i sit here with oil in my hair, a gold nose ring, a bindi, being painfully domestic and embracing the full spectrum of traditional indian womanhood (coated with modern liberal 21st century values) and i feel like my 17yr old self would be both intimidated by me but also extremely confused.

someone sent me a reel on ig featuring shobhana from the tamil movie thalapathy and told me i remind them of her aesthetically speaking. if i was a teenager, id be offended bc it was too "traditional" but now somehow it feels easy and comfortable.

the deeper i go into myself, the more i find myself embracing my heritage, my culture, my roots, my religion (and others too hehe) and finding it incredibly peaceful to surrender to it and find beauty in it. i used to be such a rationalist who thought kolams made no sense and why should women make kolams anyway but now i look forward to drawing those little geometric forms outside my door everyday, beckoning Lakshmi into my little home

for those who dont know , ^^^ this is a kolam. it does not have to be this intricate or complex. there are simpler, smaller patterns. they are drawn by hand using rice flour.

im a housewife at heart. not to any man. but to myself. i am a wife to the house i live in. i love it, i cherish it, i value it and i take care of it with adoration, respect and dedication. most of all, i belong deeply to myself. i am a bride of the universe and i am married to myself.

Hello Emma! Since you’ve shifted so much, has you shifting routine changed? How do you shift now?

Hello Emma! Since You’ve Shifted So Much, Has You Shifting Routine Changed? How Do You Shift Now?
Hello Emma! Since You’ve Shifted So Much, Has You Shifting Routine Changed? How Do You Shift Now?

the shifting routine of a girl who shifts (mostly) whenever she wants, craves, or desires.

shifting is not a performance. there is no audience. i am not standing in front of a tribunal presenting my case on why i deserve to be somewhere else. i am simply going there. this is not a trial. this is muscle memory. this is knowing the way home. it’s an instinct, like finding the light switch in the dark. i don’t have to prove i can do it. i just do it.

i shift before sleep (nothing against awake methods, but i like returning back to my cr right after waking up), usually between 11pm and 1am. not because those hours are mystical or drenched in folklore, but because that's when i’m least bothered. the world is quiet, my bed is a raft, and i’m not interested in staying here.

i don’t prepare. not really. i do not count down, do not recite an essay-length affirmation, do not negotiate with the laws of physics. i simply think: what if i am already there and just forgot? what if my senses just have to catch up? i am not convincing myself. i am remembering and questioning reality.

                  ┊ 

some nights, there’s music in my headphones. sometimes, there’s just silence, the white noise of rain, the hum of the night. my plushies (yes. yes) are there, but not as relics or ritual objects, just soft, familiar things that happen to exist alongside me.

i do not wait for a sign, for the planets to align, for the atmosphere to give me a knowing nod. i decide, and then i go. like turning a page in a book i’ve already read.   i know what happens next. the key is not waiting for permission to remember.

 people ask . .   ❛ how do you know it's working? how do you know you're going to shift? and i think, how do you know you’re going to fall asleep? you just do. you close your eyes. you stop trying to be awake. you just go. shifting is like that. you let go of this world’s grip.

             you fall. you land.

routine is something that exists but doesn’t dictate. it's not the point. the point is the knowing. the ease. the way it happens when it happens because it was always going to happen. shifting is not a thesis to be defended, it is a place to be returned to. and i return, as i please.

I guess you manifested this, below is the ask/ message I'm referencing. My parents are Congolese and know of the Law. One thing I was also taught since I was young was to never say or believe anything I don't want to be true. There are many crazy success stories ( manifesting a BWM, overcoming infertility, Michelin star restaurants visits etc.), but this is my fave: when my dad came to Europe to enter the country we are now living in, he was at the border with a group of other African migrants. It was deep in the Winter (-10 degrees) and the migrant smuggler announced he would only take 2 people into the border. Only 2 out of 24. It was so random, and so barbaric as he had a change of heard. He announced he would spin a bottle twice, and to whomever it points, he will take with him. Panic erupted and others wanted to fight. My dad wasn't alone. He was with a friend. He told him to stand next to him. My dad told me that he closed his eyes decided that him and his friend will be the one chosen. Guess what happens? The bottle pointed to my dad and his friend. The smuggler spun again the bottle, and it pointed to my dad again and again. Until the smuggler grew tired. My dad and his friends are still friends, and the friend can't stop talking about this story. He wonders still to this day if my dad is a sorcerer or chosen by god. My dad told me that it wasn't witch craft as he described the law with working with nature. Working with the energy around you (= your circumstances) and deciding what you want to experience. the ask/ message: I am referencing: https://www.tumblr.com/itsrlymine/780049332069187584/this-is-random-but-i-love-that-ur-african-because?source=share

nah the way i actually did bc i just love hearing older people's experience with the law/manifestation and of they are african??? oh i'm tuned in, tapped in turned onnnn. i love this so much honestly. my dad is religious but he believes that the only limit we have it the one we put on ourselves. the law is EXACTLY like working with nature omg i love this. i don't like that situation per se but that is such a prime example of circumstances don't matter. know yourself. trust yourself and all will be revealed to you. it has to. thank you for sharing this story my congolese sisterrr

Things I have successfully manifested into 3D

you can believe me or not. i really don't care. i'm in my idgaf era bc when you care too much about what others think, your manifestations will fail because you're giving your power away. that's my personal belief. i will put what came in the 3D and then an example of the desire i persisted in parentheses next to it. these are from various time periods, but all have happened within the past 2-2.5 years once i started actually getting the hang of it all.

four of my friends ("i have mature, caring, loving friends that love me for who i am")

three no contact friends that had drifted out of my life, not from animosity but i missed them (same affirmation + "[insert names] are my close friends and we are always talking" + "[insert names] and i have such a deep connection as friends")

exposing people in my life who were bad for me in some way: trying to use me, manipulate me, lie to me, or just were bad people in the sense that they were toxic and bad for my life because even if they were nice to me, the way they lived their lives were toxic immature messes ("all secrets and lies are instantly exposed to me, no one can hide anything from me, i always know. all manipulators and toxic people are instantly exposed to me for what they are")

job interviews ("every company wants to interview me, they fight over me, they all want me to work for them")

escaping my abusive ex ("i have a safe place to live where my ex cannot bother me any more. i am permanently free of my ex for the rest of my life and now it's my time to shine")

keeping my job when i should have been fired multiple times for attendance, about 5 or 6 times, i had a period of time where i kept repeatedly getting seriously ill, people were passing away, other major life changes and impacts etc it was like the biblical plagues fr and at that time, the company i worked for did not care when those types of things happened to others and would give them the boot in ways that were really messed up ("the people at my job genuinely care about me, want me there, and they know i'm not lying about my life circumstances and will let me get away with whatever i need to in order to heal, rest, and come back to work")

a glow up that changed me from medium pretty/medium noticed to having people in my 3D rave about my beauty and personality ("i am so alluring and beautiful. i am so interesting. i am so magnetic and charismatic. people love looking at me and talking to me. people find me so intriguing and mesmerizing. my beauty sticks in peoples minds like a work of art")

here's my thoughts on how i did this and what i learned about manifestation through the hard and good times:

i really had to dig deep into my self concept and get out of a lack mentality. the lack mentality, fear, and anger led me down a path of things getting worse and worse. my old self was very obsessed with spending a lot of time angry about how hard i was trying both in the 3D and 4D yet things were only getting worse. i had convinced myself back then that there was no point in doing anything other than the absolute bare minimum to stay alive, and that oftentimes there wasn't any point to doing that either.

i feel like i went through a trial by fire, tested again and again to see how strong my faith was, being tested by my own self. i had to find a way to understand my 3D and 4D from my own perspective, as the whole "you cause everything in your 3D, you bring everything upon yourself" was the most annoying mentality i kept seeing when trying to learn about manifestation, as i think it's a chronically online and privileged point of view for out-of-touch people who have never experienced things like systemic poverty, sexism, racism, SA, abuse and more. i was tired of seeing egotistical and narcissistic manifestation content creators go on and on about how everyone is them, and how everything revolves around what they think is the right way to do things. the constant solipsism of victim blaming and lack of empathy for others. there is no right way. that is why i always say something is MY personal belief, not the standard or the rules.

yes i'm aware i keep talking shit on here. and i'm doing so because the vast majority of manifestation content had me so in a tizzy with how hypocritical and contradictory it was that it made me go nuts just trying to follow along. i'm not the type of person that can go along with woowoo shit that makes no logical sense. that's just not me. i am deeply spiritual but also deeply scientific. i believe manifestation, creation, whatever you want to call it, has to do with quantum physics and quantum entanglement, but that's for another post.

you really can create anything you want in your 3D as long as you make it be in a way that makes sense to YOU. for example, i personally choose not to manifest money in ways that seem over the top to me. i grew up in poverty and so affirming things like "i'm so rich, i'm a millionaire, i'm one of the wealthiest people in the world" was so annoying to me because i'm an anti-capitalist and i'd rather spend my time manifesting jobs and opportunities than try to convince myself that i'm a millionaire when i think rich people are inherently evil by nature, because through capitalism the only way you can get rich is by exploiting the less fortunate. that's an example of how i see things.

i don't dislike goddard's work, and i do truly find some of his work very useful and enlightening, i just wish so many people would stop trying to treat him like a cult leader or messiah. he didn't invent manifestation or the law of assumption. these things have been present in every single religion since the beginning of time. it's just new age rebranding of ancient cultures across the world. it's taking a bunch of different cultures and cherry picking them and putting them together to make money. it's like saying L Ron Hubbard invented the idea of reincarnation and that Gerald Gardener invented witchcraft. not saying that everyone who likes/follows the teachings of goddard do this, but from what i've seen in my personal life, many do. the power doesn't come from goddard, it comes from you. and you would have figured out that power anyways even if you never read goddard. we have been manifesting/creating since time immemorial and it's how our species evolved in general. that's my personal opinion. like i said, i find some of goddard's work very helpful and strongly resonates with me, but i think too many newbies get caught up in him like a cult leader and don't truly have any faith in themselves.

my issue in my old self was that i had no faith in myself OR in anyone else. i got tired of doing vaunts, scripting, void state, shifting, writing things down 99 times backwards and forwards, all those other things. it just got annoying and felt like i was being a psycho like jack on the shining writing "all work and no play makes jack a dull boy" over and over. it was just turning into madness instead of me facing what my real problems back then were. and i see a lot of that on here and other sites. you have to be able to get over yourself and grow up. i learned that the hard way, and i'm being harsh in some of what i'm saying to hopefully "break the glass" of illusion on anyone who may be struggling with the same things i did. i am no point of authority or leader of any kind, i just want to share how i think and what worked for me.

i am going to be posting some affirmations and tips that have to do with wavering, persistence, 3D vs 4D etc. and I honestly don't like to use a lot of the buzzwords but what I call these things is very private to me and it will be easier for others to read and understand if i just use the buzzwords. thanks xoxoxo

Magha represents leaving the Mother / home in order to grow into an individual adult and establish one’s own life & legacy.

Dhanishta is dancing to the victory & wisdom gained through defeating the illusions of the material world; the same illusions which our Mother tried to keep us “safe” from to the point of restricting us from the outside world.

No wonder Magha & Dhanishta is such a powerful combo. The beginning of Leo & end of Aquarius.

How I Manifested My SP After a Year of Struggle, Chaos & Misunderstanding the Law

(buckle up, this is a lil wild)

How I Manifested My SP After A Year Of Struggle, Chaos & Misunderstanding The Law

Let’s start with the fact that… I didn’t even know this guy. I had never spoken to him. Not once. I just randomly started crushing on him one day — and honestly?? It was so random that I wouldn’t be shocked if HE manifested me first. I was minding my business.

My friend used to know him, so I’d been hearing stories about him for like… two years? And I knew we went to the same school, but I’d never seen him until suddenly—BOOM. There he was. Real. Breathing. Cute. And I was like “ok wait why is my heart doing things??”

Naturally, I spiraled. I started stalking his TikTok reposts (don’t do that, it’s not cute) and realized we liked the same stuff. He seemed fun, lowkey goofy, just my type. So the crush got worse. But here’s where I messed up: my mindset? Absolute garbage.

I kept thinking, “He’s too shy. I’m not good enough. He’d never like me like that.” I was literally setting myself up to fail. I messaged him once — got nothing back. Because duh, I was already assuming he wasn’t gonna answer. I knew about the Law of Assumption, but I didn’t really understand it. I’d visualize him, then be like “but what if it never happens” five seconds later.

Every day I thought about him. Every day I got mad that it wasn’t working. I kept saying I was manifesting him but deep down I was still waiting for proof. Still doubting. Still lowkey begging the universe to show me something.

Took me a YEAR to realize the problem was me. I was saying “he’s mine” while still looking at the hallway like a heartbroken NPC every time he walked by. I had to change that.

So I did. I stopped looking for signs. Stopped stalking. Stopped overthinking. Every time he popped into my head, I was like “yep, he’s already mine, moving on.” And I finally started believing it. I worked on myself, built up my confidence, and didn’t even try to “manifest” him again.

And guess what? HE messaged ME. Outta nowhere. Apologized. Explained stuff. Total plot twist moment.

I wasn’t even shocked. I was like “well, finally.” Because once you actually believe you’ve got it, it has to show up. That’s how it works.

AND NOW??

We’re literally perfect. Like not even being dramatic — he treats me so well. He always checks in, sends me memes, compliments me out of nowhere, and actually listens when I talk (10/10 bare minimum KING behavior). He flirts with me like we’re in a teen movie and makes me feel like I’m the only girl on earth. He’s soft with me in private but funny and chill around others. AND he remembers the smallest things I say?? Ugh.

We joke around, go on little walks, sometimes just sit in silence and it's still perfect. It’s not forced. It’s not stressful. It just clicks.

The version of him I wanted? He’s literally that now. And honestly, I’m not even surprised — I became the version of me who had this. That’s the real secret.

So yeah. Don’t give up. Don’t spiral. Stop begging the hallway to make eye contact. Act like it’s already yours — and then it is.

Now go live your Wattpad story.

i think peak historical fiction is when there is a random ass major historical figure but as a comedic relief side character. like geoffrey chaucer being a naked gambling addict in a knight’s tale or leonardo da vinci being cinderella’s fairy godmother in ever after. like. nothing can top that.

i need women to understand that attraction does not equal respect, love, or care. men’s attraction = lust, objectification, possessiveness. just because men are attracted to women does not mean that they love women or respect women or care about women past having sex with us or having us as a trophy to show off. attraction is not the same thing as respect. men do not respect you, even if they want to be in a relationship with you.

Uttara Phalguni & Dhanishta women are so similar to me. Interesting because the Vasus (Dhanishta’s deities) stole Kamadhenu (Uttara Phalguni). By the way, Uttara Phalguni is typically associated with Nandi, but I saw the strong connection between the wish-fulfilling cow & the wish-fulfilling woman mentioned in Uttara Phalguni’s sutra. Then I noticed someone else saw the connection between Uttara Phalguni & Kamadhenu (shreemastrology on Twitter).

Uttara Phalguni & Dhanishta Women Are So Similar To Me. Interesting Because The Vasus (Dhanishta’s

The same way Claire Nakti mentioned how there is always a Dhanishta woman for each generation who is a sex symbol (I really hope she doesn’t take that video down but I think it’s still up so go watch if you haven’t!!), I’ve noticed the same for Uttara Phalguni. One of the women she mentioned actually had an Uttara Phalguni placement as well (Sophia Loren)

There was Sophia Loren, Olivia Newton John, Britney Spears, Nicki Minaj, and now Doja Cat.

These women are naturally different in their own expression of this trope, but considering how Uttara Phalguni is the center stage & the objectified female form, it makes complete sense why these women rise to the spotlight continuously. They eventually become “cash cows” because sex sells, and Uttara Phalguni is the feminine expression of sexuality (hence its associated with the sex organs, lips, left hand, the blossoming of a flower. Lips & flowers are symbolic of the Yoni. It’s also why this nakshatra is the awakening of Shakti. It’s just that society has distorted and tainted how natural and beautiful the awakening of Shakti is.)

Aryaman also rules the traditions of a group of people. This might extend into the traditions of a society which produces (Uttara Phalguni is all about producing fruit + being wish-fulfilling) media that makes $. In other words: pop culture. This nakshatra is the idea of capitalism & industries within itself. And what runs industries at the end of the day? The idea that sex sells. The same way people exploit the female form is the same way humans exploit the Earth, as women are vessels of Mother Nature ♍️

Laura Mulvey coined the term “Male Gaze.” Not only did she have Ashlesha sun with potential Krittika moon, but Uttara Phalguni Venus (DK) conjunct Uttara Phalguni Rahu.
