You know that this “relationship” was like” no other”, and for some of you, the person returning to you is aware of it as well.

✨[The Spirit] - You want to become “The Empress” this august! She embody’s the energy of being completely abundant! not only when it comes to the material world, but also the emotional world.

✨⛰✨Earth Signs!♉️♍️♑️ [Taurus,Virgo,Capricorn]

👤[The Mind] - You are wanting to create something, and you have much passion about this new endever! some of you could have experienced the same “spark” of inspiration in the past, but might have put it off due to worry of what could happen. Now you find yourself at the drawing bored once more, something is boring or keeping you stuck and feeling stagnation. The things around you seem almost duel and lifeless. You wish to bring that fire back perhaps!

❤️[The Heart] - There could be some fear in you when it comes the your heart. some of you feel as if it is going to be judged by another person, and for others, you fell it will be judged by the “Universe” its self! Either you have been feeling some kind of pain, and yet have been pushing forward to stay strong, or you have caused another to experience this hardship and struggle . Some of you will be feeling sullen and resentfully about expressing this matter to another person. While you do not have to worry about the person you have wronged, in this case, you might become your worst enemy.It is you who will be judging yourself.

✨[The spirit] - You are putting your energy and heart into something! you are putting so much of your time and soul into this project or goal of yours, that it might cause you to “go off grid” for a while. while some of you might be seeking love from another person, others will be standing before a mirror, and seeking this love from themselves. This is something that the Universe and divine have planned out for you, they only wan what is best for you, and they know you have been suffering. They see your progress, and know you are doing your best to keep your head out of the waters, and yet your feet planted onto the earth.

✨😇✨[Advice] - Continue to keep yourself balanced during this month and always seek the light in moments of darkness, for the angles and guides will be around and assisting you! Many of you have called to “repent” for your “wrong doings”, so this could come up as emotions and fears that need to be cleared. Fear not because you are always loved and cared for by the divine and universe. After this “Karma” is cleared and gone, you will have a chance to start a new! but first, it is time for you to face your shadows and daemons. While you cannot see your guides and angels standing beside you, just know they are there and giving you the support, strength and courage to face this task and trial.

You are aware that this battle is somewhat of a  necessity when it comes to life! and that it only make your soul stronger! with each trial and tests you must face and pass, you grow more wise,more courageous and your heart grows even larger. Even when your walls come crumbling down, or a sword is logged into your back, it does not matter whether it is once or ten times, you always chose to stand once more.

It might feel as if this offer is as delicate as a glass heart! and it is near the edge of a table that you two sit at. Heartbreak and betrayal could both be o your mind and thus what is placing fear into your mind and heart. You are seeking the Empress! that or you yourself are seeking to become the Empress! A person without a care in the world! they have enough to feel content and within a celebratory energy!

And if you do not feel that in your spirit at the moment, you are on your way to feeling and gaining your strength and courage back to truly experience it!

✨😇✨[Advice] - While you might fear about speaking your thoughts into action and your reality, you should have no fear. For the universe is now in control and driving the chariot to victory. Your angels and guides travel beside you as you continue your journey. The worst has already passed you, and now is the time to take in and feel love and emotions once more. Love is all around you, you just have to silence your mind, listen with your soul and feel with your heart. Truly, Love is all there is.

Hello people! 

Aka "Yellowfoot"

*a distant hobbit shouts, "YELLOWFEET!"*

I was looking for black trumpets (shocker) and stumbled upon these.

Unfortunately, it was literally. The area I found them in was you-really-ought-to-be-using-your-hands levels of steep, and I was not because I was too busy holding my phone to get a sweet pic for the gram like a good millennial.

Hubris struck me low.

Maybe these mushrooms will actually taste good. Might cook with them tomorrow, haven't decided yet....maybe a cream sauce for...something. Pasta, probably.

But they took a very beautiful spore print. The spore prints of their cousins the black trumpet (Craterellus fallax) were wispy and ethereal. These were far better defined in comparison.
