Shit IS That DEEP!
#HerMonth: A chance to truly keep what resonates and release what doesn’t.
As Little Black Girls, we inherited more than our people’s eye color and curvy shapes. More than our family recipes, toxic traditions and diseases that “run in the family”.
We also inherited their language and beliefs without being able to question it.
They gave us their rigid traditions, unexplained definitions and family secrets.
Some of them became our foundation.
Some of them became our cages.
The interesting part?
Most of us never stopped to ask:
“Do I actually believe this...or did I simply inherit it?”
Though, one of my favorite topics, this week isn’t about rebellion.
It’s about introspection, remembrance and a little skepticism.
We are not questioning everything because everything is wrong.
We are questioning everything because you deserve to know what actually belongs to you.
What This Week Is Really About…
Practicing Discernment.
Exploring Curiosity.
Making Conscious Choices.
Not every tradition needs to be abandoned, nor does every belief needs to be replaced, but every belief deserves to be examined.
Because once you become aware… YOU get to choose.
Questioning Prompts...👁
🌹What beliefs about yourself came from your own lived experience? Which ones were handed to you?
🌹 What words do you use every day without ever considering what they mean to you?
🌹 What traditions or boundaries make you feel more like yourself? Which ones make you feel smaller?
🌹 If no one had ever explained success, femininity, love, or spirituality to you...how might you define them today?
I am a personal development junkie. So, I LOVE a good self-help book. One of the books that has invited me to think differently is The Kybalion: The Seven Kemetic Laws.
During the recent Mercury Retrograde, I sat in deep reflection mode and I was reminded of The Kybalion how everything relates. I was reminded “As Above so Below”, “The All is Mind, The Universe is Mental” and so much more. This guide of universal (kemetic) laws is a powerful reminder that EVERYTHING you do is connected to The Divine, your relationship with self and the world around you.
No, we STILL don’t do rules here but these “laws” are evident and actually made sense to me when I first picked up this book back in 2022. Whether or not, The Kybalion becomes part of your journey, what I appreciate most is its invitation to observe the life around you vs. just taking what’s given. Here’s a slight breakdown of each “law”.
Mentalism: "The All is Mind, The Universal is Mental.”
Vibration: “Nothing rests, everything vibrates.”
Rhythm: “Everything has it’s tides. Rhythm compensates.”
Cause and Effect: “What goes around comes back around a.k.a Karma.”
Correspondence: “As below, so above and as above, so blow.”
Polarity: “Everything is dual and had poles. Opposites are identical in nature but in different degrees.”
Gender: “Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles. Gender manifests on all plane” ☕️
I won’t do a full synopsis here but if you do decide to dive deeper and read the text, you may get a better innerstanding of how deep shit truly is and how we are all truly connected. This text also helped me better innerstand myself as a Neurospicy, Black Woman. Yes, statements like, “Words are spells”, “Protect your innergy” & “Mercury Retrograde is coming.” are becoming more mainstream but next time you hear something that triggers you to rethink beliefs, maybe think a little deeper than,
“Here they go with that spiritual shit…” 😒
Simply ask yourself, “What significance might these statements have if more than one person is saying it?” or “What don’t I believe what I am hearing? Are these my thoughts or someone else’s?”
Purge Season is prime time to QUESTION EVERYTHING. This week, I encourage you to question everything you feel, see and hear, even if you experienced it before. Not because the life you’re living is “wrong” but because we have more control over shit than we were conditioned to believe and I want us to see it. This week, I encourage you to make the decision to control what you can and be more intentional with what you accept as fact for YOUR LIFE because EVERYTHING IS THAT DEEP ! 🗣️
Let’s be clear: The Kemetic Laws are not rules you have to accept but lenses you can look through. Sometimes a different lens helps us ask better questions and better questions often lead to deeper self-awareness. If you’re interested in reading “The Kybalion”, DM me and I’ll send you the pdf.
Yes, Language Matters Too. ☕️
During my spiritual journey, I’ve become extremely intentional about the words I choose and use, especially when speaking and writing in English. Not because language is about perfection but because spelling shapes how I relate to myself and the world around me. Over time, I’ve started replacing certain words with ones that feel more aligned with me and my own perspective, regardless of how it makes others feel.
At this point in my life, I feel like if you don’t like how I speak, then don’t speak to me. 🤷🏽♀️😆 Idccccc! Might sound “woowoo”, but I do believe that words are spells.
No, everyone doesn’t have to change their language to be in this space. Actually, I know that most won’t and the change is actually something that annoys tf outta people because it makes them uncomfortable. Nevertheless, I do want to share a small glimpse into the language I’ve intentionally adopted for those who are interested or doing their work to do the same.
Below is preview of something bigger I’m creating. 😏
The Studiio Word Bank. 📝
Rising > Morning: I am NOT in mourning and will not claim it. No, it’s not a different word because one letter is missing. It means the same thing, IDC how long I’ve been conditioned to say it.
Innerstand > Understand: For me, if something is underneath you, it’s more than likely unreachable and unseen. When you innerstand something, you can feel and see things clearly.
Goddess or Empress > Queen: The origin of Queen is Quean, which means prostitute. Don’t believe me? Do your own research. Even if you don’t, please don’t Queen me and I will correct you everytime.
Eye > I: When I use “eye” instead of “I”, I am speaking directing from my Third Eye with intention and discernment. For example, I will always use “Eye Love You.”. I am speaking with so much intention and truth when I share my love with anyone.
Honorable Mention.
Do > Try: Over here we don’t try, WE DO EVERY TIME!
Innergy > Energy: Nothing is really wrong here, I just like referring to my InnerG this way. lol
Males > Men: I don’t like the “females instead of women” narrative going around so these mfs are males until they put some respect on us. 🤭
🌹 Studiio Notes: this isn’t a dictionary, not yet. It’s simply a glimpse into the language that’s helping me become more intentional on my journey. Please share any word spells that you are debunked in the comments.
This Week’s Self-Return Activity.🎙
Introspection, Forreal. 👁
- Write down three beliefs you’ve never questioned before.
Ask yourself:
Who gave this to me?
Does it still fit?
If no one expected me to believe it, would I choose it today?
✨ Bonus Activity: Begin incorporating any language that stands out to you and see how it makes you feel. It is difficult? If so, is it doable with practice? I think yes.
If you’ve made it this far...
Thank you.
Not for agreeing with me, adopting my language or believing everything I believe but for giving yourself permission to pause long enough to ask your own questions.
That’s all I’ve ever hoped this space would offer.
More awareness.
Because once you become aware, you can choose.
Choose what stays.
Choose what leaves.
Choose what deserves another look.
Choose Yourself. 🌹
Before you leave #HerMonth’s conversations...
Press play one more time.
Not on the entries or channelled frequencies, On Yourself.
Listen to the way you speak now.
The questions you ask now.
The boundaries you create and enforce now.
The parts of yourself you’ve become willing to meet.
You may not have all the answers but you’re no longer moving on autopilot.
And to me...that’s a beautiful place to begin again as you Self-Return. Whether you all four or one of #HerMonth moments, eye so proud of you and your growth. You choose yourself and looking damn good doing so. YOU GO GIRL!
Reminder: The Studiio will always be here when you need another place to pause.
🎧 Her Channelled Frequency: You are Enough - Sheléa
Listen, affirm and believe it to be true because it is.🌹
Reminders from The Stu. 🎵🌹:
A channelled frequency is just that. So when listening think more experience, moods and senses than the artist, their dealings and backgrounds. For example, how old were you or where were when you first heard the song?
#HerMonth is an intentional month to pause and return to self. One month. Four returns. A lifetime of homecoming to yourself. 🌹
Me to Me: “Bitch, You Too Spiritual!” 😒
·
An Introduction to #HerMonth. You are welcome to take these activities and do them on any month that works for you. If we’re being honest, which we always are. Chiiilleeee, these retrogrades (pluto AND mercury) have had me overly sensitive to innergy, extremely honest about how I am feeling and genuinely not givin…
The Studiio is under construction.
However, I did add some things to The Archive., if you’re interested. 🔊🌹
Please only take what resonates, leave what doesn’t.
Eye Love You on Purpose, Black Woman. 🌹
