Original Advice

DO: Do nurture yourself as fiercely as you nurture others.

Mother Your Weird With Teeth

You’ve built a shrine to other people’s needs while your own bones go hungry. You call it love; it’s evasion. You tuck your odd cravings away, serve the neat meal, and wonder why you feel hollow. The well is not bottomless. Unfed, your kindness curdles. Take the bowl back. Put your mouth to the ladle first. Spill if you must.

Your shell is a vault; your tide is currency. Self-feeding keeps your magic briny and alive. When you indulge your strange tastes—salt baths at noon, feral journaling, lunar groceries—you stop begging others to guess your hunger. Boundaries grow fangs. Care turns clean, not sticky. Your weird is a lighthouse; unfed, it’s a foghorn. Choose lighthouse. Then invite who can swim.

Cosmic Context

Ruled by the Moon, you are cardinal water: you initiate care by changing the tide. Feed the source so your cycles have something to move.
