I for one am inspired to see you taking a proper (and deeply deserved) break! I think so many of us struggle with this—please show us the way!!

Thanks so much Mason. It was a much harder decision than it really should be.. we all deserve breaks and our creative work benefits from it. But it’s hard to integrate it in that creative cycle you wrote about last week (at what point of the cycle? For how long? etc)

Bravo Sabrina ! Your break is indeed well deserved - and don’t worry us readers - and your utilitarian determination - will be waiting for you when you return. :)

I’ve just read that your midheaven is in Capricorn and it matches your self-discipline and work-hard attitude to a T. Astrology aside, the body is the absolute wisest barometer and knows so much better than our mind, especially when we’ve got so many (awesome and oftentimes useful) tactics in place to distract ourselves and be in denial. I am glad to hear you’re taking a well-deserved break. I’ll be here for your new series when you’re ready to share it with the world 🧡

Stars (and planets 🪐) don’t lie 😉 and thank you so much Claudia for your encouragement. It’s hard to move into slower gear but much needed. I look forward to sharing what I’ve been working on… ✨

Oh the culture training of productivity! REST IS A FORM OF RESISTANCE as well as self care. Please take a long break and heal and grieve. I have just read Emma Gannon's new book - A Year of Nothing - constant productivity will shut it all down - all 7 senses... Rest well my friend,

Thank you Crackle for this wise reminder! 🙏 ironically life has forced me into a year of nothing which has turned into something (this newsletter) 😉 it feels like all seven senses will benefit from this little break - to rest, discover, and rejoice in new sensory delights and share it with you all when I return next month 🌊

You wouldn't happen to be a Capricorn, Sabrina? If not this one can relate anyway.

My Sabrina always laughs at my inability to relax!

😆 love this question Marco! And quite fitting timing as today’s full moon is in the sign of Capricorn ♑️ I’m not a Capricorn myself but if we want to get into nitty gritty astrology (which I always welcome): I have my mid-heaven in Capricorn (which is how I work).
