Having known you as long as I have, I know that honoring the needs of the soul is something you've always known about and worked on centering (as you write about). But I think *in this moment* even bringing up the needs of the soul is a radical idea, and one that people just aren't used to anymore. What is a soul? We "need" eggs that cost less than $10/dozen. We "need" rent that costs less than 85% of our income. We "need" digital technologies that think and produce for us so we can get more money to pay for those things. I don't know if it was Pluto in Sagittarius, Neptune in Pisces, neither, both, or something else, but somewhere along the way we completely lost the plot about having a soul that needs to be fed. Thank you for reminding us this is a thing, and sharing your adventures in being the example.

This is wonderful. Thank you for this.

I particularly needed to hear this exact phrasing:

“What other people think about you is none of your business.”

Thank you.
