Denya PerezGUEST
I was born in Mexico, grew up in the yay, very proud pedestrian and yeah, have just, I think, spent my whole life learning and unlearning.

Denya PerezGUEST
I had this moment the other day where I was like, if astrology isn't real, how come I have an eighth house stellium? And like the eighth house is about like sex, death, grief, shared resources, but like it's also ruled by Scorpio, who's ruling planet is Pluto, which is all about death and rebirth.

Denya PerezGUEST
And I've just felt like the through line in my life and my lore is that I'm constantly dying and like resurrecting.

Denya PerezGUEST
Like either like, obviously not literally, because that would make me Jesus, but like metaphorically, spiritually, like I think like my whole life has been this like cycle of like okay I'm gonna like assimilate learn this thing master it or just like get comfortable and then like as soon as I'm comfortable it like falls apart and then I have to sort of like rebuild and relearn and come up with like new narratives strategies coping mechanisms to help me get through like that death and but like the rebirth as painful as it is like when I'm on the other side I'm like oh okay like I'm glad I had to do that so I think that's like the simplest way to capture my lore is that like, I feel like my life has been a series of like semi-tragic events, but like followed by like a period of rebirth and yeah, just like growth that has like made me the person that I am today.

And can you talk about like what that means, what that has looked like and how that has shaped how you show up in the world and for your communities?
