Friday marks my 40th birthday, and this milestone year is already shaping up to be an important one. I remember looking forward to turning 30 because I thought I’d be where I am today. 40, then, ain’t looking so bad…
I can sense a theme for this upcoming solar return that’s been brewing since the beginning of 2021. I can’t quite describe it, but I can tell you what it feels like.
It feels like me living with an abundant mindset.
It feels like me cherishing more of the little things.
It feels like me knowing that what I seek, I deserve, and I can pursue it with confidence.
It feels like me getting better at doing nothing.
I was talking to a friend and fellow astrologer the other day about what it means to “hustle” in our line of work. There were times during our respective journeys that we both felt like we had to have that “hustle mentality,” a mindset that bled into life overall. But as we’ve grown wiser, we’ve come to understand how that mindset is a harmful and unnecessary one.
Over the years, I’ve eased into my work because my lived experience practicing astrology has shown me time and time again that I am on the right path. You might say that’s been a metaphor for my entire life lived to date. And while I know my path will still twist and turn and get even better, Goddess willing, I trust that I will continue on it as Goddess intends.
That said, I have absolutely no desire to work harder, to compete, or to try to do all the things in life. I am committed to my journey as it is, and thus, committed to preserving (and prioritizing) my wellness so that I can journey on.
Ultimately, I see myself living into my 40s with greater unapologetic intention. I no longer feel the need to prove myself to anyone. I have fucking made it.
I am proud of all that I’ve achieved so far in these short (and simultaneously long as hell!) 40 years. I will continue to aspire to becoming the best version of me, and the life that develops around “aspired me” will be a life lived fully, and free.
I’m birthday AF, y’all! Happy Birthday to me!
