Daughter of the sun, goddess of magic.

 

To me, Circe is the epitome of unapologetic authenticity and radical self-acceptance.
I could write pages about how much of my own personality I see reflected in her myth but I won’t.
I will simply say that I identify with her passion, diligence, care and more than anything, I see myself in her embodiment of truth. That’s what I want to bring to the world. I’ve created a blog that’s really just me publishing my intimate journal online.

Circe’s Secrets is where I allow myself to be vulnerably honest, to tell my story, as it unfolds-sharing my wisdom but also my folly, my insights and my confusion, my peace and my turbulence, my healing and my hurting. This space was created as a home for my whole truth, in hopes that it could inspire you to create space for truths of your own (within yourself, with others and in the world).

I’m inviting you to subscribe so you’ll have full access to my secrets.
The blog is divided into three categories: Mystic, Mother and Muse. Each one reflective of a different aspect of my life.
May these writings resonate with your own inner mystic, mother or muse (yes, even if you’re a man) and may you find the courage to create a magical life for yourself, too.

With love, Circe.

Mystic. Mother. Muse

  • Mystic

    The mystic is the divine in me. This is truly the core of Circe. Transformation, transmutation, wonder and bliss.

    This is where I'll talk about the stars and their delicate dance in the cosmos. How we are impacted by the moon phases, or planetary retrogrades, Saturn return... but so much more than astrology. I'll talk about plants and herbs, nutrition and the elements, and the simple medicine of movement and breath.

    I'll dive into mindset and the power of clear intention, shadow work, light work and alignment with our higher power. Manifestation, karma, the chakras and spiritual practices like meditation or yoga...

    I'll even explore my desires and spiritual gifts and share my experiences in strengthening my intuition. It's about connection to whatever we hold as sacred. Love, Life, Creator, Creation...

  • Mother

    Mother - The parent

    This part is not as extrospective as one might expect. It's not filled with parenting advice for do's and don'ts of motherhood. There's hardly ever any focus on the child here.
    Instead, it's about the parent in all of us. Because being on this journey, whether or not there is an actual growing child in your care, will connect you with your inner-parent. Oftentimes, parenthood triggers, uncovers and magnifies our unresolved childhood issues but, the truth is, healing requires meeting and integrating our inner child, which requires us to reparent ourselves and so, there is much to explore, confront and correct in the way we parent even and especially if only with ourselves.

    Becoming a mother (to him and to myself) has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life and I intend to document as much of it as I can right here, in this space.

  • Muse

    Muse - The lover

    Ah, the juice.
    The healer, feeler and freer of hearts... she must be so very good at relationships, mustn't she? *sigh* if only it were that simple.

    I've always been extremely sensitive. The unfortunate side of that means that I've been easily bruised by the circumstances of my upbringing, my social life, romances... Everything hurt. And every hurt left some unwanted program, defense mechanism, toxic trait or belief or behavior...something problematic. I've never actually experienced healthy attachment before (although, I think that may be changing as I write these words) and just like with everyone else, my layers of trauma, pain and fear have attracted and created very ugly situations in my life.

    My wounds are most visible in the way I experience connection, relationship and partnership. It's not what you'd expect from someone who is so open and caring, trust me.

    Genuine, unconditional love on one hand. Toxic attachment and abandonment issues on the other.

    My heart is full and light but my mind... is still healing. This space is where I store the ugly details of that process, but also all the breathtaking beauty, too.
