Life is not neutral
This message – LIFE IS NOT NEUTRAL – came through the mouth of my 15- year old Taurus Sun in a vent fest on the way home from school a few weeks ago. She was naming her frustration with classmates who opt out of saying what they want or what they think. She is noticing she doesn’t trust people who never take a side or disagree. She paused and goes (loudly): because, you know… Life is not neutral. Mmmmhmmmm. That’s my girl. Brazen Truth Speech. No, life is not neutral. I’ve been contemplating these words since she seeded them in my being. And now I share them with you to let them roll through your own field. To be neutral…
My books are re-opening for 1-on-1 ♎
In this email: – Some eclipse insights – Announcement: brand new 6-month, 1-on-1 expansion mentorship – Announcement: brand new 8-week, 1-on-1 launch support ** ———————————————————— Wow, what a time. Over the past few weeks since the first eclipse in Pisces, I created a series of reels describing what I feel has been coming up. These have been the most popular videos I’ve ever posted. To summarize, I want you to know that being an expansive person does not mean being someone who is always clear. In fact, living expansively often involves a lot of confusion. This is because expansiveness is about trusting that even if you don’t exactly know what is coming toward you around the river bend, you will…
The 5 Most Intuitive Chart Signatures
** ———————————————————— We are all intuitive. Intuitive awareness begins with feeling, and humans are beings who feel. Who take in information from outside our bodies. Who receive intelligence from Spirit, from ancestors, from multidimensional planes. I grew up thinking that some people are born with these gifts and we either have them or we don’t. But the truth is our intuitive and psychic abilities are like all skills. We learn. We practice. We refine. By relating to them. Every single day. We can all talk, but it takes practice to speak words that sing to the heart of another. Being a person who writes with impact requires an internal and external commitment. There’s the agreement you make with yourself to…
The consequences of expecting invalidation
This is part 5 in a 5-part series on the magic of unshaming. In Moon to Moon (https://brittenlarue.com/course/moon-to-moon/) , together we root down into the truth that the Moon-self is the you who cannot be invalidated. This is my offering to invite you into a life of receiving, so you can share what you receive with all of us. ** ———————————————————— Across this series, we’ve looked at: 1: (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334750) the nuanced distinctions between self-shaming and self-confrontation. 2: (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334834) how unshaming has opened up our capacity to hold regret. 3: (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334906) how the kink for our badness is a story for safety. 4: (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334962) on the yearning to feel seen and what happens when we give that to ourselves. Most of…
The longing to feel seen
This is part 4 in a 5-part series on the magic of unshaming to effect nourishing and empowering ways of being for yourself and your worlds. This approach is what I teach in my annual fall course Moon to Moon (https://brittenlarue.com/course/moon-to-moon/) . In M2M, I teach how I relate to my past and future selves to protect the present moment from my (conscious and unconscious) fear of it. Whether you join M2M this year or not, I hope the contemplations I share in this notes will inspire and support you in being human right now. ** ———————————————————— In the first email (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334750) of this series, I talked about the nuanced distinctions between self-shaming and self-confrontation. In the second (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334834) ,…
My kink for badness

Unshaming Regret
This is part 2 in a 5-part series on the magic of unshaming to effect nourishing and empowering ways of being for yourself and your worlds. This approach is what I teach in my annual fall course Moon to Moon (https://brittenlarue.com/course/moon-to-moon/) . In M2M, I teach how I relate to my past and future selves to protect the present moment from my (conscious and unconscious) fear of it. Whether you join M2M this year or not, I hope the contemplations I share in this notes will inspire and support you in being human right now. ** ———————————————————— In my last email (https://mailchi.mp/brittenlarue/everyone-is-intuitive-we-all-have-the-clairs-17334750) , I talked about the nuanced distinctions between self-shaming and self-confrontation. In our loving relationships, it’s so clear…
Self-shaming vs. self-confrontation
** ———————————————————— Self-shaming is not self-confrontation. Self-shaming is a re-enactment rooted in the past. Self-confrontation is an attunement to your truth in the present moment. Self-shaming is not alchemical. (It doesn’t change anything.) Self-confrontation is an invitation to transform. Self-shaming is ostensibly about betterment, but the truth is it has a kink for feeling bad. (More on our kink for badness in Part 3 of this 5-part series.) Self-confrontation sits with discomfort as a means to move toward nourishing change. The discomfort gets metabolized and it becomes something else. Something soft. Even sweet. As long as we center pain in our healing path, we will choose self-shaming over self-confrontation. Unshaming is self-confrontation. This means discomfort is sometimes present in the…
Trying to be understood is an energy leak
NOTE: below, there’s time-sensitive information about Early Bird for Moon to Moon (https://brittenlarue.com/course/moon-to-moon/) : my foundational course in intuition, inner child healing, and The Moon for those who have been waiting all year to join, or who will feel an instant Yes and want $100 off tuition. Under the Moon in Sagittarius, I write with some contemplations on what we’re learning this Mercury Retrograde in the hopes that my words will support you with where you’re at. I was reflecting on a theme I keep seeing in every conversation, and these are the words I heard from my inner voice: What are the energetic consequences of straining to get someone to understand you? How many hours of your day are…
We're gettin' pregnant
Just as our understanding of astrology can only be partial, because it’s so much more than we humans can fathom all at once, so your understanding of yourself is incredibly partial. You come into Emergence Astrology because you are so brave and so curious to find out more about who you are. It takes a lot of audacity because you have to be willing to surrender expectations around what that vastness looks like. In this way, it’s a lot like getting pregnant. You don’t get to control what kind of baby you have. That’s what we’re doing in the 9-month hermitage phase of Year One. Making babies. Some facet of you knows that your perception of yourself is part bullshit.…
