From the Moonlight Path a New Beginning

The Day After the Lunar Eclipse, The Moon Lights the New Path Ahead

I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia eleven years ago, and for the past eight years, this blog is a space where I share the holistic practices and methods I use to manage the pain. But to be finally free, I must change the narrative. The time has come to call it a day on a name that has defined me for too long as The Holistic Fibro Fighter.

I have come to know that I was holding onto trauma at a cellular level, a trauma that kickstarted my body into shutdown and resulted in a fibromyalgia diagnosis. Living with a condition of which there is no cure has made me fight for so long. But I know that constantly reliving that same story keeps the energy alive, and I want to remain free from the pain I have now tamed. With the help of shamanic and energy work, I have reconnected with myself and begun to heal the broken parts of my soul. This is still a work in progress, and this blog post is part of that process. Now, the pain is a gentle whisper to remind me to look after myself and listen to my body. It is the wisdom from within.

I'm excited to announce the next step in my journey and a new home for my work. My blog is now called Jane Taylor Articles, and it is part of a new collection of intuitive wisdom offerings. The original content from The Holistic Fibro Fighter will remain on my Jane Taylor Online website as a complete and valuable archive of my journey.

The Journey

For over a decade, fibromyalgia has been an invisible illness that held me captive. My first symptoms began in 2013 when I was 42, and after my diagnosis in 2014, my entire life was changed. It stole my energy, my very sense of self, and took all my plans with it. Its impact covered my 40s and early 50s. In my mid-40s, I also went through an early menopause, and the medical profession never picked up on the similarities between its symptoms and fibromyalgia. As a result, fibromyalgia shrouded those changes so much that they went unnoticed. But in facing its demands, I was forced to stop and discover what is truly important in my life. Now, I am in a phase I like to refer to as Cronehood, having gained wisdom from this journey. I know that what matters most is the freedom that comes from letting go of the fight, and the inner wisdom born from healing and self-discovery.

A New Beginning

I am stepping into a new era where I am me, no longer defined by a label or a fight. The content on my various platforms now reflects that. I am moving forward with a freeness of spirit, a lightness of heart, and a quiet knowing that my life has been transformed, giving me a clear sense of the new path ahead. Over time you will see less of a presence as I gradually step back from these places.

It feels like the recent full moon, lighting up the sea the day after the eclipse—a bright light to mark this new path.

The shadow passed, the world held its breath,

Then silver light returned from death.

A path now shines, upon the sea,

A new beginning, guiding me.

Please Note that due to circumstances beyond my control, I have lost access to my original Facebook pages.

Thank you for being here with me. I am so grateful for your presence on my journey, and I invite you to join me in this new era.
