Illuma

Before this we were watching someone drive their opal painted RV across zilker park?! 😧 Bro u can't park there 😭😂

I brought some bubble wands and had fun blowing bubbles across the water at a full moon swim 🤗✨

When I got in I asked a nearby woman if everyone had already done the howl yet BC I saw online it was at 9 (and I missed that) so she inspired me to start my own. I hesitated at first but belted one out and heard the howl pockets of people travel all the way down to the other side of the pool 😂💜

I was swimming out to the middle and blowing bubbles while treading water and a prob mid 20s woman swam up to me super excited to play in the bubbles, then her bf jumped in and joined us like we weren't allowed to talk alone for too long 😆?!! He TOLD me to blow more bubbles and I told him "I don't take requests but you can try!" and handed him the wand. They both tried it and remarked about how hard it was to tread water and blow bubbles at the same time 😆 (true).

I told the lady who inspired me to howl first that I was surprised how many people joined in and she said that "it was only appropriate that everyone joined in for the queen". I didn't know what she meant by that but it sounded girl power so I'll take it 😋💜

On my way back to my car there was a guy holding a crying baby and I walked up and asked if his baby likes bubbles, he was stressed out and said idk probably and so I blew some bubbles - asking the toddler if she liked "no cry juice" 😂 It worked. Wife (I assume) walked up and I gave them the bubble wand cuz they'd get more use out of it. Sometimes being a villager looks like trying to give a couple random parents an advantage cuz you can. 😌

Then I came home to some new fragrance oils having arrived! 🤗 Nothing like the post Barton cleanse and immediately anointing yourself to smell heavenly after howling at the moon. 😊 Drop an awooooo in the comments if you are in awe of/talk to/love the moon like I do 😌✨

Someone said its a "ground score" 😭😭😭😫😂😂😂😂😂😂

I recently watched this video again and noticed way more than I originally had when I posted it, so I decided to caption it! As someone who is constantly underestimated in MANY fascets of my life (like most women) it is always a real treat to see and hear the smirk fall right off peoples faces after they see even a crumb of what I am actually capable of. I got so used to mean spirited energy that I genuinely forgot who I was and what I was capable of.... It took me years to heal from that- but I did.

This constant, fundamental misunderstanding of who I am as a person used to confuse and bother me a lot. I didnt understand envy, jealousy, or the desire to tear others down for no reason bc it wasnt within me. I thought I was doing something wrong or misrepresenting myself in some way... But over time I've learned to alchemize this projection of negativity into fuel because all it really does is show who they are. It has nothing to do with us, like SO many things. Once I locked this understanding in (along with many other mindset shifts) my whole life began to change.

If someone is talking down to you, its because they view themselves down there and are trying to step on you to get a leg up. Make sure they slip. 😆 (some heckling is all in good fun, but some just isn't and this video is a great example of that IMO)

This is from my first burn with my new moon palm torches at Flowstorm 2025 😍✨

Also- its my birthday week! Accepting gifts in the form of sharing this post, cold hard cash, and wearing cat ears if you're gonna see me soon hehehe 🤗💜
