Reflections and inner guidance on the cycles and seasons of Life, Love, and Transformation

July 2026 Release

Dualities of the Heart is a collection of poetry, reflections, and inner guidance that was written in 2023 during a time of deep personal transformation that lasted many years. These writings center around themes of trauma, love, grief, self-identity, healing, and embodiment, and are filtered through a lens of feminine esoteric wisdom. They are intentionally left in the order they were written as a representation of the spiraling, cycling, seasonal nature of life, love, and transformation, which are often messy and not experienced in neat categories or structures.

Crowned Warrior

(manifesto of personal freedom)

She is the beauty of a rose, both the petals and the thorns.

Soul Storms

Through many storms I have learned to slowly relax my need to control, to slow with alert awareness, and to release fixed ideas and outmoded ways of BEing, with a foundational trust that all storms pass.

Moon and Flame

SHE is here with me, nourishing my tender soul with moonlight and fierce flame.

Temples rise up to meet me as I inhale Nag Champa and still morning air.

When I Fall, I WILL RISE

I AM a flame tender of hope for those who do not yet have freedom, and I will walk this Red Road with strength and determination.

When I fall, I WILL RISE. I will not surrender to despair, not when so much is on the line, for I AM a Warrior.

The Medicine of Dream Weavers

I find comfort in this uncertainty, not always, but in stillness I do.

I feel the peace of this connection in the space where the mind settles and a felt sense takes over.

You Owe No One an Explanation

When did you stop believing you were magic?

Threats of hellfire and brimstone held shame knowingly in their hands. This “hell” was created by the shame handed down to you, convincing you that you needed to be saved.

“Do this. Don’t do that. Your body is sin’s sanctuary. Keep yourself pure or you’re a whore. Don’t bother asking for help, no one will listen anyway.”

These lies created the prison of someone else’s making, now open the door.

A Glimpse into the Soul of Truth

A magnetic pull to enter the enchanted forest, both dark and inspiring, a topsy-turvy wonderland of opposites beckoning integration.

You are Not Forgotten, Just Incubating

No one told you of this journey; the destination of the soul.

A breaking open, a splitting, a spilling, and an emptying.

A temporary darkness and a return to remembering.

Remembrance is Returning to Me and SHE is Powerful

Return to the spark and look closely at it rising in the air. Did it disappear or just return to the stars? Unmarked soul seeds with battle scars. Follow the spark back down to where it begins, to the first time you agreed to be something you were not. These were agreements made barely past toddler legs. “Be a good girl. You’re naughty if you disagree.” “Naughty” is just another way to say, “your truth threatens me”. The same truth that threatens lives built on faulty foundations of illusion and oppression, the norms that dictate “too much” and “not enough”, and dance only with strings attached.

You Are a Magical Misfit

You are a magical misfit, wings of fire throwing shards of too small cages as perfect tinder. Burn baby, burn!

Laugh as your wings unfold, setting your heart on fire. Small beliefs and blood-stained bandages rise as black smoke; the perfect backdrop for your emerald heart.

I am Love, Joy, and Abundance

I am the abundance of a thousand slow-moving rivers, gracefully meandering back to the creation of ALL, nourishing everything in their path.
