My story

I’m not here to work? My greatest gift is to be a guide? …The earliest descriptions I read about being a Projector felt like a simultaneous relief and wake-up call. Instead of beating myself up or thinking something was wrong with me for struggling to “keep up” with those around me, I started to cultivate compassion and understanding for myself. I reframed “work” as the impact I have based on my gifts to see deeply instead of a linear quantity of deliverables.

I’ve always had a bit of a hermit-side to me (cue angsty teenage years, when I AIM-ed friends “I’m not going coming out tonight, I need to hermit.”). I also had many, many moments of doing all the wrong things in the first phase of my life as a 3rd line profile. During a particularly intense Saturn return period, coming back to the knowledge that I’m a 6/2 who’s meant to go through some profound fires of transformation to emerge as the role model (eventually) is a North Star I keep coming back to.

Oh, am I a taste person all the way. From being called “picky” as a kid (I prefer “particular” or “discerning” ;) ) to having the questionable rep of being the one who takes just a bite of something and leaves the rest, I deeply identify with my determination. While it used to be a source of stress (group meals/eating things I don’t “like” feels like the WORST to my body), I love that I freely and easefully own my quirky food preferences now :)
