so sweet ... i think i wanna lick the (w)rapper

This Taurus energy is really affecting me. I’m in one of those crazy moods. Daydreaming about love, romance, yearning for that dizzy feeling you get when you begin a relationship
Scientists have a name for the chemical reaction that occurs when we are in love. I call it Osun; and I have tons of it running though my veins. It wakes me up at night and keeps me in a constant state of yearning.
I’m feeling like I need to retreat and find someone or something to pour some love on.

I have a friend who is starting a business. An ambitious, lovely man with a sun in Scorpio; his determination moves me and I want to help him realize his dreams.

* its' the curse of being one of Osun’s babies: I want everyone to be happy and I will exhaust myself trying to make other people’s lives easier while neglecting my own*

That aside, I like to see him smile. I think I’ll cook up some good ju-ju and send it his way

A brush of his lips against her shoulder sent her spiraling back to where they began. They were young lovers then, each other’s reason to live. Pressing her head against his chest, listening past the staccato rhythm of his heart, she could hear his laughter and smell the scent the cotton left on the surface of his skin after a long day in the fields. But, that was then. Now, here they are again, a century away from where they started, staring at each other each, trying to remember what they both forgot.

If she knew how long they’d known each other, the seriousness in his eyes may not have been frightened her. A woman of 30 years born under a sun in Aquarius, she depended on her sharp logic and intellect. But everything that was happing now - the visions, the voices, the vivid dreams - all worked against her comprehension. Nothing made sense anymore so she decided to yield.

I’ve made some important decisions.
I will no longer be a martyr. I will no longer find comfort in taking one for the team.
I will no longer put every ones dreams before my own. I will no longer attempt to fit my dreams inside someone else’s box .
I will not be afraid of what is beyond the surface, I will meet each challenge with bravery, strength of character and pureness of heart. I
will continue to listen to Egun and allow them to inspire and guide my progress.
I will open myself to the possibilities. I will not deny myself happiness, I will pamper myself, wear heels and make-up and get my nails and toes painted twice a month.
I will continue to be creative through my writing, parenting, dance, knitting, bathing and anything else that brings me joy.
I will not depend on anyone to tell me what is right and wrong what’s best for me and the way I envision my destiny.
I will no longer be self effacing, I will big myself up every chance I get, I will try not to become arrogant
I will try.
I will no longer pass up opportunities to shine I will stay faithful to myself first, my art second and my other relations on a sliding scale thereafter.
I will build a better relationship with money, I will stop convincing myself that money is evil and that I should not have it.
I deserve to be comfortable and surrounded with beauty and light and images and accouterments that encourage my creativity.
I will begin to live with passion and share the warmth of the fire that is bubbling inside, choking me, threatening to do me in if I don’t let her out. I will scream occasionally, just for the fun of it
Alode k'oju ewuji o san rere.We are entitled to wear the crown that awakens all pleasure.
