King of Cups + Nine of Cups, New Chapter + Blooming Cat

Getting to the bottom of how we feel - so we can change it!

#BloomingCat 4th time in 30 days!

King of Cups, I read.
"seeking to understand what is felt"
We've had a Venus going retrograde for a time now, asking us to do just that! Soon she's turning direct again and we're invited to begin acting even more from this newly defined place. A New Chapter - living even more in tune with ourselves :)
Turning old 'dissatisfaction' (R C9) around - not by 'rearranging circumstances' but through living, acting and being more in alignment with our own hearts rather than with the beliefs and opinions we've been taught or inherited (consciously or unconsciously).

That's the only way to truly bloom!
Nurturing our own unique needs, gifts and talents - not imitating others'.

Our souls "desire to be known and loved as you are", not for what we do or achieve.
The first step is to love OURSELVES as we are!!
Really get to know HOW we feel, have compassion for ourselves, be gentle with ourselves. 
Understand WHAT is felt - not in terms of what we THINK we feel, and the head's narratives on the why - but in terms of 'how emotions and feelings ACTUALLY work'!
Exploring the workings of the unconscious, which drives most of our lives (95% or so...) Then we have areas such as epigenetics, the nervous system, childhood programming, trauma, quantum physics and so on and so forth.

At least if you have 5 planets in Air like me! :D
A Gemini Moon. 
A Cancer MC, telling me that emotions is something I 'promised to work with'.
Scorpio (water) Uranus - emotions are what I'm here to change this life - from the depths.
