Jill - A Little More About Me, Pt. III

So, Summer Solstice 2021 I began practising Golden Age Leadership Astrology, this map of understanding bringing massive revelations to my unconscious and subconscious programming and patterning. There was (is) so much data to learn and integrate, and it is constantly evolving (just like we are, which is part of why I love it so much). I had been going through a lot of big, intense emotional breakdowns in the 2 years prior, and this work was helping me refine my understanding of what was going on when I felt out of control, and face/resolve what was coming up.

My intuition has started coming online more… it has been a very slow process, which is exactly how I’m templated, so it’s perfect haha. I’ve needed to work through a lot of distrust in myself and Spirit. I look back to that summer and can’t believe how much I’ve transformed since then. People who I shared this information with seemed to be equally triggered, resistant, and fascinated (just as I had been). Recognition of the astrological archetypes, natal chart patterns, and behaviours playing out in everyday life began to flood my awareness in my experiences and interactions. Someone could tell me things that were coming up for them and I could see where it would show up in a natal chart. I started offering free readings to friends and family and because of the breakthroughs that were coming up in sessions, they encouraged me to start offering readings to the public. GALAstrology has been the most helpful framework and map I’ve worked with to guide my self-inquiry, understanding, and evolution in alignment to what is in greatest service to the whole - and I want to share that with others.

Around this time - as I became more and more devoted to clarifying my field, my channel, and my tone, creating space for what Source wanted to move through me - I got pregnant. Immensely grateful, it felt so divine and intentional after all of the physical, mental, emotional, energetic, quantum, and generational healing I had been going through to make space for this being. There were so many synchronicities with the timing of it all. All throughout pregnancy I got particularly interested in the deeper mechanics of vitamins and mineral balance and function in the body, finding the Root Cause Protocol and other resources that I believe greatly contributed to my health and ease with being pregnant, along with my movement, herbal, and consciousness practices. This year also brought a  further fascination with energetic mechanics of the higher aspects of Self, quantum biology, and DNA healing, through which I’ve been able to bridge some of my understandings with the physical body, astrology, and spontaneous healing events. 

In August 2022, I birthed our daughter into this world in the sanctuary of our own home, witnessed by Jordan and our dear friend who I would call our “sacred birth keeper”, with my own mother holding space in the other room. Babe arrived so quickly (look up Fetal Ejection Reflex) that the midwife arrived about 15 minutes after she did. This experience was glorious, and exactly perfect for our family… not once did I ever get any kind of medical intervention, or participate in any induction methods (even though I was 2 weeks “overdue”). My body and baby felt amazing and vigorous until the birth, and every fiber of my being knew that this process was going to be purely physiological. I completely cocooned in that sacred waiting period - refusing to be pressured into anything, or take on other’s unfounded fears in my process. Those weeks before birth were equally beautiful and challenging in their own way. During the labour, not once did I have anyone tell me what to do, how to position myself, check me for dilation, or lay hands on me - except to lovingly hold me in certain ways during contractions, which I asked for, and rub and massage my legs and back between contractions, which I asked for. I navigated that birth gracefully and in my gnosis through the years-long relationship I had cultivated with trusting that the wisdom of the natural world knew exactly what to do, that my body knew exactly how to grow and birth a human, and that my baby knew exactly how to be born. And because I had the most amazing support, during that whole process I could be 100% with myself, my babe, and God, surrendering into our miraculousness together. Moment-to-moment trust was the initiation of that portal, and I felt viscerally sovereign in it.

Here we are on the other side. Our birth story is now my favourite story to tell, the best day of my life. Since then, I’ve felt more space open up. There are so many offerings, ideas, and things I want to share that I’ve been sitting on for a long time - because as you can probably see from my history, I’ve never fit into a nice clean box with what I’m doing, and this has had the tendency to paralyze me from offering anything at all - but through birthing a human in all its illogical non-linearity, I finally feel ready to birth myself out there in all of my illogical non-linearity. None of us have it all figured out, but I deeply feel that with the knowledge I do have, and the skills, tools and practices I have cultivated, I can be in service to those who feel resonance with my words.

Jordan and I have been feeling the call to offer more in collaboration together, as the expansion of our family has lead us into more contemplation and conversation around practices not just focused on self-integration (which is a crucial piece), but also relationship and community dynamics. Keep following along to see where the path takes us! Thank you all for your support.

Much Love,

Jillian
