Why Be Bothered When You Can Barter: Shadow Work, Pluto Retrograde, and the War on Your Focus

Greetings to the most grounded, self-aware, intergalactic beings on Earth! I stopped by to drop a little wisdom in your sphere after seeing some wild posts on threads last night. The post was about the economy, and an astrologer's video was tagged in it about what's to come. Prepare for the Great Depression, not just a recession, blah, blah, blah. Let me tell you right now, stop falling into those traps that pull you back into a cycle of forgetting who the fuck you are. The comments were so freaking disappointing.
Let’s go ahead and tell the truth.
Folks out here losing it again. Same way they did during the freaky-deaky eclipse April of last year. Except this time the noise is louder, the distractions are heavier, and the bait is every-gi-damn-where.
The headlines are screaming recession. Social media’s got folks panicking about another Great Depression. And in the middle of all that, racial wars are ramping back up. Spiritualism is being co-opted again. Sexism, classism, capitalism, socialism. The ism wars never stopped. They just changed outfits because bad built likes to repackage since he's not creative.
Meanwhile, some of y’all wondering why your dreams are wild, your body is tired, and your patience is on E. That’s Pluto, dah'ling. His retrograde hit May 4th and it’s running the show until October. Translation? Everything buried, hidden, repressed, finessed, and un-blessed is coming up.
This is not chaos. It’s clarity in disguise. I really like it.

And over here in The House, we already saw it coming. This is exactly why we’re in the Foyer doing the work with this month’s theme, The Unearthing: Shadow Work as Spiritual Maturity.
See, this ain’t just energy. It’s excavation.
We covered how to move into the month of April as an Intuitive Observer. Keep up. Now then, everything you were taught to suppress is getting louder and louder. Everything you were told to hide is coming to the surface like a naked mermaid who spotted your daddy.. Not to embarrass you, but to empower you. Shadow work ain’t just trendy talk it's a way of life. It’s a survival and ascension tool. It’s how your high ranking ancestors decoded the dark.
Let me be plain about it, the world is arguing. We are integrating. Others are trying to pick a side. We’re over here in this House choosing strategy. They want you mad. Unfocused. Bickering about identity while your divine memory sits collecting dust. That’s the trap. Don’t fall for it. You can't say you know but not applying what you know. Okay!

Go outside! Bartering still exists. Community still works. Legacy is still the assignment. Y’all out here being bothered when you could be bartering. Running around worried when the blueprint been sitting in your bloodline the whole time. Not everybody’s gonna feel the shift the same way. Some are gonna feel the ground move. Others might feel like nothing’s happening at all. Both are valid.
Just don’t mistake stillness for safety. And don’t mistake noise for news. The truth is, a lot of this is theater. Distraction wrapped in strategically placed astrological design for your binding and bondage pleasure. I cancel and transmute, got us messed up! But for those of us who have been walking through the Foyer, this ain’t new. We’ve been getting prepared. We’ve been unlearning. We’ve been remembering.

And if you’re just joining us welcome, welcome, and welcome. You’re right on time. In this House, we don’t do spiritual bypassing. We don’t silence pain or pressure. We sit with it. We ask it what it wants us to know. We turn it into instruction. Let this be the month where your shadow becomes your strategy.
Let what gets unearthed become what gets rebuilt. This ain’t about fear. It’s about focus. It’s not about sides. It’s about stewardship. And it’s never just been about you. It’s about the link of your blood and the line you carry.
So stay grounded. Stay close. Stay in the foyer or cellar. Because everything that’s shaking? It’s not breaking you. It’s showing you what’s unshakable and what needs to stay or go so you can grow! You are not alone and don't have to go at it alone. Seek community and tap in so that you will have support to keep you from being distracted by that badly built network of calamity and sacrifice that won't get you anywhere but the morgue quicker. Love you ... ta-ta for now! The Ladies and Lulu
Sipping my chardonnay, and minding my own business. Stay centered and don't get swept up in the madness.. 🙏😊🦋
I was just speaking with my daughter earlier today about the distractions. Wow I have that same energy! I KNOW who I AM and everything is great and will continue to be great in my life, regardless of what’s going on in the outer world my INNER is grounded and on point 10 toes down! Period! Thanks LuLu!🌹
Chef's kiss. Let's get it
