what is consciousness?🌙 i've been exploring this question with curiosity and an open mind, and i'm learning that everyone defines it differently. for me: consciousness is awareness. i believe our conscious and biological minds are separate. our biology makes some decisions for us, but our consciousness - our inner awareness - is what makes us human. and i think art is one of the ways we explore consciousness - when we create, we're making the unconscious conscious. we're expressing awareness itself. i'm still forming my own interpretation of what consciousness is, but reading, watching, and listening to how other people explain it has helped me shape my own understanding. currently watching: https://youtu.be/aynzcAYnnJU?si=98su1-azDa1K-sb0 a panel of scientists (including one philosopher) use their areas of expertise to define - in their own words - what consciousness is. what do you think it is?🌀

hi alchemists🌙 it's been a couple weeks since our first group call, and before i continue creating more spaces like that, i want to know: who's still here? if that's you (even if you've been quietly observing), i'd love to hear from you🦋 share whatever feels right: - your name (or just hi) - what form of art or creativity calls to you - a book, song, movie, or resource that changed your life - what does "alchemy" mean to you? - what do you want more of in this community? no pressure to answer everything. pick what resonates. i'll drop my answers in the comments🧿 (and if you're just reading, drop a 🤍 so i know you're here)

4 days until our first creative alchemy circle 🌙 friday, january 16th at 7pm EST we're going to: - get to know each other - work with the voice that stops you from expressing yourself - practice something that will shift how you create who's coming ??🌝 comment something if you'll be there🌀

vibe check: where are you at right now? 🌙 creatively, emotionally, energetically. choose your current state: 🌑 in the void (nothing's flowing, feeling stuck) 🌘 releasing (letting go of what's not working) 🌗 in between (transitioning, uncertain) 🌖 building (ideas forming, momentum growing) 🌕 full flow (creating, aligned, energized) 🌔 integrating (processing what you've created) drop your moon phase below 👇 if you're in the void, know you're not alone. every phase is important to prepare you for the next one. let it exist without judgment & tune into what you are being called to shed or grow into🦋

happy monday, alchemists 👩‍🔬🤍 i hope your weekend was filled with intention, ease, and rest💌 mine was super full, a friend visited from france, and it felt so good to slow down and nurture that connection🪴 i’ve been thinking about starting live sessions soon (!!!) but i want to make sure everyone can join. i know we’re all in different places + time zones, i’m currently in EST⏰ to help me plan, please comment below your time zone and the days/times you’re usually free 💬 so excited to connect more and share energy together in real time🎨
