This landscape is magic, potent, wise, and alive. So many stories embedded within its layers. Stories you begin to hear the quieter you become in her presence.

“We live our lives in transformation” 🌀 Rainer Maria Rilke
There’s nothing like a hug from home! Or the fragrance of your first friend 💜 29 years of this lifetime together has been pretty cool! And yes this is May in Colorado #ourmothersdaughters
This weekend marked another dance around the glorious Sun, another solar return, a rite of passage, a sacred juncture. This last year was a reclamation for me, a grand rising with many reverent bows of complete surrender. Life brought me to my knees through several vulnerable experiences but also empowered me to lean on others, to open up and receive when in need. My faith was tested but withstood high winds and torrential downpours. A testament. My roots grew, and the branches expanded from the strength of new growth. Every lesson is fertile ground for blessings. The darkness of soil breeds the nutrients needed for resurrection. My heart fire is ignited to full flame, emitting the warmth of my love to all, all cylinders firing. ⚡️
What began as whimsical frolics in the woods turned into deep reflection and intuitive observations eventually unfurling into a self assigned project. A project which emphasizes our connection to the natural world through body image. A mission encouraging us to see ourselves within nature and nature within ourselves. ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ The time I spent in the trees, skin to skin with Mother Earth, I saw intrinsic beauty in the textures of her body. I saw veins in stones, ripples on the surface of her sacred waters, uneven, worn, and weathered compositions that resemble what we as humans see in ourselves as flaws...” ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ | A year in the making and nearly a year of procrastinating I’ve released What If The Trees Wore Clothes on my online portfolio victorialise.com|⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ I started this project before I had an in depth understanding of my Taurus nature however the essence of that archetype is ever present in this expression. It seemed fitting to let it go during this earth cycle and the day Uranus and the Sun met up in the sky, liberating me of any leftover restrictions or limitations. And so it is ✨ 📷: @avalanche.alex
It’s Taurus season! ⁣🌲👩🏻‍🌾 ⁣ Taurus is the 2nd sign in the zodiac, ruled by the planet Venus, and the earth element. ⁣ ⁣ Taurus can typically be slow and steady, sensual yet strong, determined but stubborn. They tend to be practical, reliable, consistent, lovers of all forms of beauty, loyal, understanding, and grounded with a fixed value system. ⁣ ⁣ They like to feel safe and stable often finding security within nature, spirituality, a sound financial structure, music, fine fabrics, delicious foods, and moments of solitude.⁣ ⁣ Although life’s simple pleasures are a sweet spot for Taurean’s, material possessions can reign high on the priority list, sometimes giving a false sense of self worth, through the imposed idea that ‘things’ offer security or increase our value.⁣ ⁣ It’s important for Taurus to cultivate internal contentment, building a solid inner foundation. The art of non attachment was one of Buddha’s many teachings who was said to be a Taurus. ⁣ ⁣ This sign is the archetype and embodiment of the earth spirit and perhaps no coincidence ‘earth day’ is celebrated during this solar cycle. ⁣ ⁣ Remember this is a general overview of one sign. We are all so much more than our sun, moon, and rising signs. In fact we are made up of every sign and element, though some have heavier influence, or express in areas of our lives we may not be conscious of. So if you’ve ever felt like you don’t relate to your sun sign (or relate more to another sign) it may be because it is just one placement in the entirety of your constitution. ⁣ ⁣ What do you love most about your sun sign? ⁣
