when we are together, i feel brave in a way i never thought i would. i hold you close in public when we linger in window displays, kiss you goodbye when i drop you off at work, and hold your hand whenever and wherever i can. i am the lesbian i needed when i was younger, visible and strong, and it’s all because of you.

we know there is a beauty to our kind of love that others can’t always understand. we have a language from the women who came before us, and a culture as rich as the land they gathered on. though we are different, we are the same where it counts. we were forged in the same fire of girlhood, of difference, of strange and lonely girls who loved their female friends a little too much. sometimes i am struck by the symmetry of our lives: i tell you an autobiographical joke and you already know the punchline. we find comfort in each other that we never found anywhere else. a depth of understanding we wouldn’t trade for the world.

“One should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place. One should direct them towards mutual affection. A beast gnawing at its prey can be happy too, but only human beings can feel affection for each other, and this is the highest achievement they can aspire to.”

Alexander Solzhenitsen (1918-2008) Russian novelist, emigre

- just choose a pile based on which one calls you.

- that's okay if more than one calls you.

- if you can't choose one, try meditating.

- if you don't feel called by any of them, that's okay. it means that just maybe my energy doesn't match yours and that's fine.

i see a job coming! maybe a little promotion or something. your dreams will become reality because you are bringing structure to your life and that i can see. omg bestie, why are you screaming like that? you really got the power! everything will fall into place and you will enjoy yourself a lot during next year. also, maybe an emotional fulfilment is also coming! luck will be on your side!! if things have been wrong recently, this will stop. you will have tons of opportunities. i see you'll be creative, imaginative, nurturing, organized, responsible and capable of making everything work. remember those days where you couldn't get things done and you had to call someone else? they're over!! people will call you now, you will be their leader, you will guide them towards success now! trust your intuition and remember: with great powers come great responsibilities. you have to be careful to manage everything well otherwise you'll loose it all. but you got this. i know you do.

your year will be filled with a lot of surprises! i see some changes, big ones. some of you could be letting go of someone that you have dated and has been toxic to you. yas, queen, that's going to end! others can simply find love for the first time after a while. either way, i see big changes and someone finally speaking for themselves. you will be setting some boundaries and deciding what's good for you and what's not. in fact, the universe has already done it to you and you'll just finally accept it. that's great! you'll be taking more care of yourself and things that you used to accept, you will fight it. i see 12th house in my head. do you have a 12th house mars? (that's very specific) if it's the case, or if you have any other placement that points to a passive aggressive human being, i see that you will be becoming a fighter right now. good luck! it's your year, bestie! you can make it all happen, just believe in yourself!

maybe you are shy, aren't you? yeah, not anymore. 2022 will bring you a thirst for knowledge and not only that, but also the urge to change things. you will be bold, friendly, selfless and fearless. r.i.p the old you dies on january 1st. i see new friendships coming, you will be surounded by a lot of people. people that actually care about you and will make you laugh. you will discover yourself, the world and love. not only self love, but i do see that's coming strong for you. you will be confident, charming and sensual and that's when you will attract a love one (i heard future spouse on my head. good luck 🤞), you will be really happy with this one. different from anyone else. i'm telling you. i see someone with a beautiful hair and everybody being like "omg you changed it?" so you'll be taking more care of yourself and completely change yourself. A. MAJOR. GLOW. UP. IS. COMING. i hope you're prepared for that.

family is strong in here. maybe you will have the strength to start your own family or your family will be more united (if it is already, then i guess you will be spending more time with them). i just saw vacation and then family vacation. you will be traveling a lot. i see you will explore things more, maybe even get a little bit spicy next year. money is coming your way and it's time for you to have fresh starts. it's he beginning of a whole new cycle. goodbye old year, welcome new year. that's your mindset now. it's time for you to rest and enjoy everything that you fought for so hard for all of those years. celebrate a little bit! go to parties, connect with yourself, meditate... become your best friend! take some time for yourself and explore the world. next year the world is yours, baby. start that skincare you have been procrastinating, go out with that one friend you haven't seen in ages, go to that city you always wanted to... enjoy living, it's time for that.

take care, loves.

i come home early one morning after a long double shift at work, and crawl into bed next to you. you, warm with sleep, eyes still closed, pull me in close, draping your arm over my hip. the night without you was long, but i feel safe and held now. i close my eyes and fall asleep easily in your arms, your body wrapped around mine.

it is a tragedy that i wasn’t alive in the romantic era and thus couldn’t be part of lord byron’s inner circle because not only do i share their beliefs (technology bad, nature good, rationality bad, passion good) but i also could’ve refused to fuck lord byron and i think his ego needed it
