Chapter 21 - Noah’s Ark
And where most people see mirrors, you, my friend, see windows. By which I mean there is always something beyond the glass. You have seen it and will always see it now, though others may not. I would have spared you that vision at such a young age. But it’s been given you, and it will be up to you to decide whether it’s a blessing or a curse.
—Trenton Lee Stewart, The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey

This quote stuck with me as I continued contemplating how I could make money without selling my soul. "So will you follow daydreams or will you follow wealth; and how can you find your fortune if you cannot find yourself?"

Meeting up with Morgan!

Time to make some vision boards!

First to sort through all these magazines ...

I never expected to find so many things I wanted to cut out!

Almost everything I cut out for my board was words and phrases. I thought this was really fitting considering my love for books and reading and writing.

I had so many phrases that not all of them ended up making it onto the board!

Laying down the final pieces!

My vision board! Most of it is conceptual, but I also added a picture in the corner of Machu Picchu. I had not thought much about Machu Picchu before but I had the idea of traveling in my head, and I found it with a quote about the mountain that was said by a Laura (my mom's name), so I added that quote. Fast forward to February 2024 I suddenly had an opportunity to go to Peru and I went to Machu Picchu?! And being in Peru absolutely served as a deeper level of activation. Everything, absolutely everything in my life is connected in some way or another.

She went up on the wall as a daily reminder of my new future 💜

Time to go do a moon ritual ... something I had never done before, and would've thought was completely woo woo just a few months ago!

Meditating under the blue supermoon with Morgan!

We wrote things we wanted to release under the light of the candle ✨

I had a lot of things I wanted to let go of ...

Just a towel ... Wait! What's that on the bottom there? ...

A trident.

This day was the ultimate solidification (in wax form) of my faith. Up until this moment, even with all of the crazy things going on, my mind could still excuse it all and chalk it up to coincidence. But not with this. Not with this symbol being created out of nothing, created FROM the guardian angel candle. Since then the trident has been my ultimate symbol of faith and surrender, and I have a trident tattoo on my arm.
