Songs of My Life: April 2018

April 26, 2018 by Shelia

With April ending in a Scorpio Full Moon in Pluto Retrograde, for me it means I am celebrating my evolution which is very apropos as this month I’ve grown mentally, spiritually and energetically. I’ve shed old ways and I am now comfortable in my skin again. Listen on Spotify Listen/Watch on YouTube or below “Head Down” by Our Lady Peace I can’t remember the moment I added this song, but I remember why, these lyrics: “Head down wait for tomorrow. Dark days […]

Songs of My Life: January 2018

January 30, 2018 by Shelia

I didn’t make any resolutions for 2018. I did make targets I’d like to reach as you can always step back and realign if necessary. I think if you label things as a resolution or goal and you stumble, it seems like immediate failure. I’ve had this target mindset since 2012 and it’s worked and I don’t see it not working for 2018. The month of January was one filled with epiphanies and realizations, both good. Mars is in Sagittarius […]

Songs of My Life: December 2017

December 27, 2017 by Shelia

The first part of December was a bit of a struggle mentally and emotionally for me. As I neared the anniversary of my mom’s death, I honestly didn’t think I could take any more tears or pain. My soul rallied and we made it through and have set the intentions for an amazing 2018. Here are the songs that helped and inspired me this month. Listen/watch on Youtube HERE or below. Spotify users HERE. (*not all songs on YouTube or […]

Songs of My Life: November 2017

November 28, 2017 by Shelia

Fuck, November was hard to get through. The On Coming Storm (depression) showed up unannounced and rained (literally and figuratively) on my mother fucking parade for most of the month. There were a lot of lows this month and the few highs couldn’t pull me out the funk. As the month is ending, I am finally starting to feel the storm pass. My family and friends back home will never know how much their texts, messages, and tags helped me […]

Songs of My Life: October 2017

October 29, 2017 by Shelia

Looking back on October, I didn’t sense an overall theme or feeling. Just songs that marked moments, thoughts, feelings. October was a bit of a weird one for me. Neither blah or awesome. It just existed. Just. Listen/watch on Youtube HERE or below. Spotify* users HERE (*not all songs on Spotify) “A Better Future” by David Bowie From his HEATHEN album, which was considered a comeback for Bowie on the charts, but let’s be honest, it’s Bowie. There’s no comeback […]

Songs of My Life: September 2017

September 27, 2017 by Shelia

Some months have an underlying theme or feeling and some months don’t. At first glance, I didn’t think September’s song had a theme, feeling, or pattern, but upon further inspection I see it’s about letting go so you can receive more. Which in reflection has become my meditation mantra this month “I release so I can receive”. Listen/watch on Youtube HERE or below. Spotify* users HERE (*not all songs on Spotify) “Hold On” by Models Started September with back to […]
