To be cursed with such a good memory... I remember when you could go onto a website and not be bombarded by 3 auto-playing video ads and followed around by floating ads that obscure reading an article. I remember. I remember so well. The golden age.

EveryHeron says... "We need to rediscover the natural world, not as a resource to be exploited, but as a home to be cherished."

Once, I put my heart inside an empty bottle and gave it to the ocean, watched it vanish on the back of a wave. Sitting on the beach, toes dipped in sand, the water kissed my skin and brought me back a seashell. I pressed it to my ear and listened. β€˜I’ll give you mine in return.’

Spring in Ireland is more like 15 winters in a trench coat, constantly trying to sell you a broken watch.

"Renaissance scholars had uncovered something that would change the course of history: mastery over the human imagination wasn't achieved through force, but through controlling the way humans process and create internal images and meaning." open.substack.com/pub/amayarou...

There's a common notion that being ungovernable means being tough, unmovable, etc. But I'd say that being ungovernable requires agility, the ability to redirect the flow of things, softness that allows us to survive falling so we can get back up and keep going.

For the last 2 years my landlord has been attempting to gentrify our neighborhood, so he keeps spraying the natural wildflowers with chemicals. What I love about daffodils, a poisonous plant considered under the auspice of Mars, is that they keep growing anyways 🀠 completely ungovernable πŸ’…

What a day for my email to go rogue and stop working. This Mars station is honestly the most glitchey part of the Mars RX.

Something cracked open over the past few months of sessions with my spiritual mentorship clientsβ€”a pattern so clear it felt like thunder. Everyone, regardless of background or belief system, described the same haunting experience: 'Nothing feels real anymore.' open.substack.com/pub/amayarou...

So uh... my first email of 2025 (yes really, lol) hits tomorrow and begins a whole series around a project I've been incubating since the middle of last year. You can't imagine how thrilled I am... and if you'd like to be part of the electric energy, sign up here: amayarourke.substack.com

You can tell I'm in a Mars profection year, because for the first time in a long time I really want to incite some righteous anger in people. Anger is useful. It's energizing. It's informing. It's active. Fuck despair that paralyzes.

Finishing up a whole suite of emails going out to my newsletter... and the nervous excitement is mounting to a fever pitch πŸ˜†

Useless resume humble brags: I have rebuilt the same website on Wordpress, Ghost, Squarespace, and now CC360... all for the insane obsession of finding an affordable all-in-one tool for my business that takes away tech bottlenecks. So you could say I'm selectively patient to a fault.

Me talking to my dog whining at me to do something: sir I am a momma, not a Burger King drive thru where you can have everything your way

"Children brought up in great security, tribal or familial, aren't very aware of love, as I suppose fish aren't very aware of water. That's the way it ought to be, love as air, love as the human element." Ursula K. LeGuin

How I know I've reached clarity? For the first time in my work as a spiritual guide (since 2019!), I was able to write a professional bio about myself... in ONE day. You cannot begin to fathom how much I hate & avoid writing bios. This is a big big deal, and yes I want a cookie πŸ˜‚

Thinking about how most of a rocket's fuel is burned to lift off and break out of Earth's atmosphere... That's how I feel right now. I've been working on an enormous project (with Damien's help!), and it's the final 72 hours before public launch... and I'm so tired 😭

Things I ask myself more as I age: Does this only work theoretically? Or can it actually be successfully put into practice?
