One of my core beliefs is that “you can make your life what you want” There’s a certain sort of delusion needed to make this work. A delusion I absolutely have in spades.
I’m a Virgo with an Aquarius Moon and I 1000% side with my moon side. I’m inserting a segment from
on Virgo’s with Aquarius Moon’s cause, I find it interesting. You can find your combo there too!“ To be a Virgo sun with an Aquarius moon is to be at one with the moon. To be a Virgo sun and Aquarius moon is to be a moonbeam.
A moonbeam is the light that shines from the underside of the night. Originating from the day and the sun, it is the light that lights the way when one is on the path on the other side of the burning.
A moonbeam is cool and calm, but bright. It is blue and violet and shining. But it does so as if somehow coming from the bottom of the deepest ocean. The ocean of the sky where the future exists.
Virgo is a mutable earth sign and Aquarius is fixed air. And so within a Virgo sun and Aquarius moon is a person with intense skills to not only survive, but thrive. But to also do so in a manner that is inventive and exhaustive and almost revolutionary.
A Virgo sun with an Aquarius moon finds solutions where there are none. They approach the problems of life in a way that is cool and calm like a moonbeam.”
I will take “almost revolutionary” lmao.

The message I want to send today: 128 days remain until the end of the year. That’s 128 days to get closer to what you want.

I like to think there’s plenty of room for me on this list of celebs born on August 25th. Let’s keep this thang going and we just might see.
Discipline
“The body you want? Achievable with discipline. The career you want? Achievable with discipline. The life you want? Achievable with discipline. That car you want? Achievable with discipline.Discipline? Achievable with prayer” –– somebody on tumblr
Discipline to me is receiving little rewards as you do repetitive actions to achieve any certain outcome over a long period of time. It’s a mix of consistency and forming habits and adjusting to ever changing circumstances.
I haven’t tried praying for discipline so I’m gonna try that, especially in the times when it doesn't feel easy.
Things I find helpful to do on a daily basis:
Exercise: 15 mins at minimum of any activity, even stretching clears my mind.
Protein Smoothie: I do plant based unflavored protein powder and use frozen, fresh fruit. or a combination to add flavor. I do get commission if you use the above link to buy it.
Sleep: I get a good 8-10 hours of sleep every night. I usually put on rain sounds or stormy weather sounds
