🎙️ Devotion Diaries: Frequency Reports
A series where energy meets strategy — and your ambition finally lands somewhere that feels like home.
And this is the today’s spark that set it all in motion. Enjoy!
🔊 Daily Spark
Cue to check the cosmic weather
It started with this video
And she’s not wrong. At all.
Oddly well-timed, too — because guess what? Jupiter, the planet of growth, luck, and big main character arcs, moves into Cancer tomorrow.
So, we’re talking:
🫂 Feeling over facts
🏠 Homecoming to self
💦 Emotional intelligence as currency
💖 Nurturing your whole life, not just your goals
🎨 Creating from care, not just clout
😌 Letting softness be strategy
Goodbye Gemini chaos brain.
Hello Cancer comfort core.
and a bunch of crocodile tears….don’t say I didn’t warn ya!
🌊 Welcome to Devotion Diaries 041 —
Where I toss out a question to life and see what she shows me…
But back to MCMs... because as Jupiter inches into Cancer today, I somehow ended up deep in a Facebook rabbit hole, hunting down my old MCM masterpieces.
Listen.
I wasn’t just tagging crushes.
I was Photoshop swapping myself into their lives. (and their partners..)
I was the undisputed queen of romantic delusion content. The line-up includes:
Zayn Malik was my day one.
Colin Kaepernick? A passionate second act.
Dom Dolla? A spiritual awakening on the dance floor.
Lovely. Chaotic. Unhinged. Magical.
💭 The Thought Spiral
Every week, I rebranded myself as someone’s soulmate.
And I miss that girl.
I miss when posting your crush was a weekly ritual — not a brand risk.
Because the me who made those edits?
She knew how to dream.
How to play.
How to turn infatuation into a lifestyle.
And somewhere along the line, I buried her.
Why?
Because play started to feel dangerous.
Because college taught me that joy comes with consequences.
That too much fun = a price I couldn’t afford.
And here’s the wild part:
That was the last time Jupiter entered Cancer — summer before freshman year.
Right before everything cracked open.
⚔️ Inner Tussle of the Day: When Joy Becomes A threat?
I had all the freedom. None of the systems.
I chased joy without a map and ended up with a three-year cleanup job: emotional, academic, financial, physical. (Sorry, Mom.)
It was foundational. It was feral. impulsive. destructive
And it left me with a belief that haunted me for years:
If you want to grow, joy must be sacrificed.
So I overcorrected.
Hyper-managed. Hyper-vigilant. Emotionally constipated.
The kind of disciplined that people praise — but that doesn’t let you breathe.
But now? Jupiter’s back in Cancer. And the vibe?
Is different….and lit.
Jupiter in Cancer: The Lovers’ Transit
This time around, I’m not afraid of my softness.
I’m not trying to earn rest.
I’m not scared that joy will wreck me.
Because Jupiter just spent the last year rebuilding my 4th house —
my emotional core, my roots, my nervous system.
And now?
It’s entering my 5th:
🎭 Creativity
💘 Romance
🧒🏽 Inner child
🎨 Play
🌟 Spark
The sacred house of self-expression.
Of frequency.
Of the fire that doesn’t need to be explained — only felt.
And that is what this next chapter is built on.
🪞 A Devotional Return
So today, I begin a new Creative Sprint.
(Not a launch. Not a funnel. Definitely not a content plan.)
This is a soul-led, spark-before-strategy sprint.
Because this season isn't about showing up.
It’s about showing through.
I’m not performing.
I’m not optimizing.
I’m remembering.
This is a sacred rebellion against:
The overthinking
The over-editing
The obsession with getting it right
I’m bringing back MCM energy —
but this time?
Not for a man.
For me.
🌟 Main Character Mode Activated
MCM =
✨ Main Character Mode
✨ Main Character Magic
✨ Main Character Manifestation
Because this new era is about energetic authority — not aesthetic approval.
🌍 Presence > Performance
🌍 Embodiment > Expertise
🌍 Meaning > Metrics
My new mantra?
Build what feels real.
Live what feels alive.
🌿 Devotional Quest:
What was your version of Photoshop MCMs?
What did you do just for the joy of it?
Dig it up. Dust it off. Give it a home.
Not for clicks. Not for claps.
For connection.
To yourself. Your past. Your magic. Your spark.
💌 ¿Por Qué No Los Dos?
You don’t need permission to play.
You don’t need a reason to rest.
You don’t need to sacrifice joy to grow.
You’re allowed to be the dream and the discipline.
The softness and the structure.
The chaos and the cathedral.
This sprint is my sacred yes to all of it.
With love (and a lot of fire),
