The lunar cycle is quite miraculous. A lot of people don’t realize just how in tune we are with the planetary system. It really blows my mind when humans pretend to be machines. I guess it makes sense being that the men who rule the world need us to be machines in order to keep the money flowing in their pockets. The programming is deep. It’s only a matter of time before they create robots who not only replace the workforce, but also become consumers. Ehh… Don’t let me pull out my conspiracy card so early.
To be honest, I don’t spend much of my energy concerned about conspiracy. I don’t identify as an activist either. I mean there was that one time when I went to the peaceful protest for George Floyd in Lake Charles. Everyone that I knew in business told me that I was in career suicide and Buffis would go under. It wouldn’t have been the first time that I got cancelled. Quite frankly, I am going to follow my heart regardless of what people think. Cancel me. I always come back. I remember when I came out as bisexual. Over 20k people read my blog. My business dropped in half in good ole southern Louisiana. Canceled. Guess what’s still standing– my business. You know what never changed? ME! I always delivered the best. I always brought my best. I always loved. I always cared. I always wanted to do the best for everyone.
The point is that I like to honor my true self, regardless of societal norms. In college, I had a sociology professor who undressed on stage during class. It made us all uncomfortable. Then he said, “If you saw me mowing my lawn like this would you respond the way you are right now?” We wouldn’t have. He was in shorts and sleeveless shirt. It taught me a valuable lesson about perception. People’s emotional responses are largely influenced by other people’s responses and their programming. Once you open their eyes, they begin to expand their awareness.
I am an eye opener. I am unconventional. I am true to self. I follow the cyclical pattern of life and evolution of spirit.
What better cycle to study than that of the lunar mystery. The New Moon arrived in Sag the other day. I had written to you, but I was far too emotional to post it. I am on my moon cycle as well. Forgive yourself if that feels too crude to share with you. In time, the feminine cycle will become less taboo as we begin to awaken to the miracle that is WOMAN.
Until then, I will continue to speak about the revelations that I experience as I sync with both the full moon and the new moon every other month. You see, my body knows when there is something to be birthed and something to be released. This New Moon cycle, I was releasing the old and birthing a new idea.
Since I launched my coaching as self titled “Through the Paige”, I have grown so much. I also have learned a lot from Taylor Swift in her expression of her art. Just as she self titled her first album and then evolved, I too am evolving from the personal brand that keeps my name in the center.
What I am thinking about now is scalability. Eventually I will need to teach healers my craft. I will attract like spirited woman who have gifts. I will most likely want a team to manage the influx of clients. So I want a brand I can scale. Also, I think of exit strategy in business. I know myself and once I set up a system, I like to move to the next phase of my evolution. So all these ideas were stirring during the new moon while I was recreating my next logo to roll out in January. I am so excited about this! I cannot wait to share more with you.
ALSO!!! GUESS WHAT!!!
I am getting through the edit of my book and BABYYYYYY it is so good! I cannot wait and I mean CANNOT WAIT for you to read it.
It’s funny when you work on such a big project like a book. Hours of my time are dedicated to completing something that could very well not be received by many people. It’s a labor of love.
This is the journey. I will continue to plug away and walk this path that is laid out for me. I will continue to step over the self doubt and the limiting beliefs that arise quite often. Who is to say what will happen? I think often about the story of what happened with the Nightmare Before Christmas. It was a flop for many years before becoming a staple of entertainment for the Holiday Season.
Art has this energy of resurrection. For the artist, it isnt about how much money or how many people receive the art. It is about the surrender of being connected to one’s higher self. It is about the love and the dedication to the work, regardless of the outcome. It is about honoring the deep well of creativity that lives within us.
On this lunar cycle in my birthday month of 2023, I have let go of so much fear in order to birth a new vision for my coaching and the book that has already changed my life.
You will be the first few people I share all of it with, because you are so special to me on this journey. Some of you tell me that you print my emails and read them as a book. Some of you tell me you have a whole folder in your emails dedicated to these writings. Some have told me that reading my story is their “me time”. Some of you greet me on the streets with so much grace.
You have walked me through heart ache. You have watched me climb and fall and climb again. You have been here. I love you for that. “I am a fan!”, some of you say. However, that is not how I view our relationship. You are part of me, because without your support I would not be as driven as I am. I think of you when I doubt myself. I think of you when I just want to go chase the money. I think of you when I don’t feel like my words matter.
It’s like you are my light. When I was told in meditation that, “The path is already laid.” I didnt realize that you were the street lights along the way.
I am crying in gratitude right now. I am thankful. It all starts somewhere right? Maybe with 10 readers. Then 30. Then 40. Then 100. Now 280 on the regular. It seems like small numbers, but not to me. So I honor this cycle of New with you as I burn the candle of many wicks. I stay awakened to the calling, because it is the service I was born for.
Thank you! May we see many New Moons together.
With The Deepest Love,
Paige Elliott
