Settled deep within the Elk Mountain Range sit the pristine Twin Lakes. Majestic peaks surround the turquoise blue waters where fisherman cast lines and others come to enjoy the solitude.

Happy New Moon! ⁣♐️🌚 ⁣ Sagittarius reaches out its arrow for us to grab onto, pulling us from the newly explored depths of our own inner ocean of emotion. ⁣ ⁣ We may be drenched from Scorpio’s waters, soaking in our new understandings that Sag now invites us to celebrate. ⁣ ⁣ We were in Scorpios sunless, obsidian valley and now we’re on Sag’s lustrous, carnelian peak, hopefully seeing from new heights and broader perspectives with eyes-wide-open.⁣ ⁣ ⁣Scorpio is contraction while Sagittarius is expansion. Scorpio asked for emotional honesty so we could answer the archers call and stand tall in our truth. ⁣ ⁣ Before we can stand firmly in our truth we have to first rekindle our inner knowing and get clear on what exactly our truth is.⁣ ⁣ ⁣Sagittarius welcomes us to warm up by the fire, burn off the burdens, and then hands us a bow and arrow of our very own. ⁣ ⁣ Releasing the arrow requires that we have a target in which to aim or that we surrender to trust the direction of our life’s unfolding. ⁣ ⁣ And while we’re in the eternal optimists territory we are reminded to enjoy ourselves making the best of the journey even when we don’t hit our mark. ⁣ ⁣ This new moon cycle aims to ignite our heart fires, awaken our passions, expand our horizons, open our minds, and inspire new directions. ⁣ ⁣ To aim true and then follow through.⁣ ⁣ ☽
Today is my moms birthday! ⁣ ⁣ The only person I know whose birthday is really on the cusp. ⁣ ⁣ Her sun sits at 0 degrees Sag and goodness is she a beautiful mix of intensity and joy, fire and water, depth and happy go lucky. ⁣ ⁣ We share a Gemini moon, a Pisces ascendant AND we both have Saturn in Capricorn at the exact same degree. ⚡️⁣ ⁣ Yup, we’ve been going through our Saturn return together and we’re a big, huge part of each other’s life lessons. ⁣ ⁣ This year has been a wild woozy doozy though it couldn’t be any better cause were in it together. ⁣ ⁣ And there ain’t no mountain high enough..
Hi! ⁣ ⁣ This virtual world can be an odd place, a breeding ground for separation but can also foster connection, depending on how we use it. So here’s a little bit about me and what I do and I hope if you’re looking to connect you’ll share with me too. ⁣ ⁣ I’m Victoria or Tori ⁣ ⁣ Originally from Delaware but have lived in Colorado consistently over the last 6 years having first moved here in 2008 to attend college @ Western State. ⁣ ⁣ At the start of 2014 @avalanche.alex and I resurrected a property maintenance/management company (operating as an LLC) out of necessity, but also with the ambition to be self sufficient. The fluctuating hours and ‘off seasons’ of employment living in a small mountain town was unsustainable, so we took a chance and branched out on our own. ⁣ ⁣ In 2018 I took a deep dive into the study of astrology with little intention to become a professional astrologer but that changed with the impact astrology had on my own life. It led to big transformation- speaking at retreats, hand-painting, and analyzing (reading) charts and more fun that’s currently in the works. ⁣ ⁣ We also have a soil + compost operation we’ve been actively working on over the last six years and this year it’s grown significantly. ⁣ ⁣ It’s one of our deepest passions and greatest drives and the foundation of all that we do. ⁣ ⁣ We sell soil, worms, compost tea, and nutrient amendments harvested from local living biology, and set others up with a complete system (and understanding)to do the same. ⁣ ⁣ An endeavor deeply rooted in the element of our earthy sun signs. It’s what happens when a Taurus and Capricorn get together, lol. ⁣ ⁣ I also hand roll large amounts of beeswax candles, make batches of high quality, non toxic body butter, network/fundraise for rescue organizations + I love where I live, enjoy creating art, and being mindful of the way I move through the world, the impact my choices make, and how to do better. ⁣ ⁣ If you’ve made it this far, thanks for tuning in ⁣ Capture by my treasured friend⁣ @rustyframes 🧡 ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣
Hi all! You may have seen the candles I’ve been hand-rolling in my stories recently. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ A fun endeavor sparked by a bounty of beeswax that was given to me, sparing it from sitting in a landfill. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ You can read the backstory and more about how this all came to light on my website; link in bio. It’s a really neat story so I hope you’ll read it! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I had no intention of becoming a candle maker but life’s funny like that and I’m enjoying the light-heartedness it has ignited. ⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣ These loyal light bearers make for special (low impact) gifts, beautiful table centerpieces, artful bottle drippings, sacred altar additions, and unique, personalized party favors! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Each candle was rolled with intention and infused with lots of love. All of the natural were rolled under full moon phases and each color when the moon was in a corresponding element (reds; fire, greens; earth, blues; water, yellows + oranges; air). ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ All sets can be found on my website victorialise.com/shop. Large scale orders like personalized wedding favors can be placed with me directly. And if you’re local to the Gunnison Valley you can find sets and singles at The CB Tobacconist. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The online shop will continue to be restocked and updated until all wax is rolled and sold! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Big, big thanks to all who have already shared and supported. ⁣ ⁣ Be on the lookout for mason jar pours and sunshine shaped votives in the near future 💫
What happens when the sun and moon are in opposite signs? A full moon! ⁣ ⁣ With the sun and mercury rX in Scorpio we’ve been exploring our own depths. Shedding our our former selves so we may unfurl anew. Perhaps old wounds, grief, or shadow behaviors have risen to the surface of our consciousness inviting us to lean into our own self healing through emotional honesty. ⁣ ⁣ It can be an exhausting cycle; however, the full moon in Taurus lightens the atmosphere, and shows us the value in taking the deep dive, is the return home to ourselves. ⁣ ⁣ Full moons represent a completion, an ending, or a culmination of something hard earned. ⁣ ⁣ Celebrate this celestial dance by giving in to what gives you pleasure. ⁣ ⁣ Do what feels good. Eat chocolate, make love, slow down, savor the moment, and take time to really enjoy yourself. ⁣ ⁣ It’s a marvelous night for a moon dance, honey. The full moon is exact Nov 12 8:34 EST
There’s no one like you, no one. 💫
