PROTECT WHAT YOU LOVE 💗

Today’s lunation, 3:11 PM in 2° Leo, invites bold self-expression and soulful leadership.

It’s not just about setting goals—it’s a soul-level activation to remember who you truly are and step into your creative flame 🌟 !

The moon is stirring up deep transformational motivation to let go of old power dynamics and spark the world with new, fresh, innovative energy!

TONIGHT! Vision Board Workshop at 7:00 pm!

We are going to activate Self-Sovereignty & Creativity, ground our dreams with Courage & Structure, and learn to flow with the path of least resistance by following our heart with Simplicity as Strength!

This is the time to seed the future with ART & AUTHENTICITY! May this new moon in Leo gift you the courage to speak your truth, start a project, sing, dance, write, and build from the inspirations that light you up!

It’s my Leo Moon, and last ritual in the city, so I’m gonna go full out!

I’ve designed my whole life on vision boards since I was a kid. Collages were my first love, and I’ve downloaded and channeled so much wisdom, clarity, and direction with them.

It’s not a vision board of what you want; it’s a vision board of who you are!

Are you enchanted with roses? 🌹

Do you feel called to Mary Magdalene? 

Are you ready to listen to your inner awakening?

Do you feel the pull to soften & open your heart? 

If yes, you are a Daughter of the Rose. 🌹

Gather in celebration to delight in the mysteries of Mary Magdalene, receive the light codes of her ministry through wild rose land essences crafted from the temples of France, and open your heart through direct rose transmissions. 

Circle with two priestesses, devoted to the rose, Kimiko & , who are dedicated to sharing their stories with Her through their embodied sacred study and soulful communion.

On July 22, it is Mary Magdalene’s Feast Day. A day where we step into the enchanted space of Divine love, and bring roses to the Goddess’s feet that dwell within your being.

You are part of the ancestry of the rose, and it is now time to honour the seat of your calling and dive into the Magdalene’s Embrace. 

Join us this Tuesday, July 22 - 7 pm
for a Feast of Roses and Ritual.

This night will be as if you walked on pilgrimage with Her through many timelines.

Iris japonica, also known as fringed iris, shaga or butterfly flower

Shaga (シャガ) evokes the image of a butterfly flower—delicate, evanescent, and fluttering with spirit

The Flower Essences from these pale lavender-white blooms with orange/yellow crests support grounding, heart-opening, and gentle clarity. They are ideal for transition times—inner settling, emotional easing, reconnecting to grace, and softening outer defenses. These woodland light-eaters display a gentle reassurance that can help ease anxiety and provide protective emotional boundaries.

💧I crafted a special land essence with Shaga and water from Nachi Falls, the tallest single-drop waterfall in Japan, which is sacred to Kumano Nachi Taisha, a Shinto and Shugendō pilgrimage site.

🐲A place where the ancient and modern pilgrims drink from the Nachi springs to impart longevity, spiritual vitality, purification, and blessings from the kami and dragon-spirited waters.

🐉The Dragon Fire speaks to the transformative, fiery potency within the waters.

🌕Tonight for the Capricorn Full Moon we will channel the medicine of Japan with my co-creator

Together, we will create a somatic ritual of embodied clarity, trust, and empowerment to show up in your authentic sovereignty.

Today, we entered a powerful portal — the New Moon in Cancer, a deeply feminine and restorative lunation, marking a return to the waters of our inner world.

Cancer, ruled by the Moon herself, draws us home to the body, the breath, the tides of emotion we’ve been too busy to feel.

💎This moon is infused with Jupiter’s expansive blessing, amplifying whatever we plant now — intentions, prayers, dreams — into the year ahead.

It’s a rare alignment that offers healing, hope, and profound timeline shifts if we choose to show up with heart and presence.

🐬Our bodies are vessels of memory, energy, and rhythm. When we move and rest with awareness, the waters within us re-harmonize.

I invite you to listen to your subtle body, to soften, release, and make space for deeper dreaming. Your emotions are sacred messengers. Your rest is revolutionary.

🇯🇵Is Japan on your bucket list?

I’m excited to announce my most anticipated retreat ever… JAPAN!

Join me and for a unique retreat that isn’t touristy, it’s about immersing yourself in Japan’s culture and learning how to live intentionally with nature and community.

Back in 2015, I traveled to some of the main cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto with my family to discover our Japanese heritage. It was thrilling and life-changing. It planted a seed in me to one day return and go on pilgrimage into the spirit of the lands.

Upon finding out that some of my DNA is from the southern Okinawa prefecture, I thought what better way to begin this quest than start there and team up with my Japan-born-soul-sister and her family to help explore the essence behind Japan’s allure.

For some time we dreamed to co-create an experience that centred our roots with yoga and ritual as a way of life, similar to how the Japanese approach life with purpose and intention - IKIGAI.

The Blue Zone of Ishigaki is the perfect place to experience this union of eastern and western perspectives converging together.

As one of the farthest islands from major cities, Ishigaki has is own unique culture and lifestyle. It’s less distracted by fast-paced modernity and still carries the charm of tradition and kinship with nature and each other.

That is why we are happy to invite you to SHIZEN a family-style retreat to build strong bonds - KIZUNE and become your natural self - ARINOMAMA NI.

🪭This is a small group retreat. Space is limited. 
📥 Sign-up on the waitlist and receive the first direct invitation to join.
🌕 Registrations opens on Pisces Full Moon. 9/17

You can DM me with your email too!

sunset at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico

a labyrinth is a walking meditation to connect with source and contemplate upon a question or intention.

for the past week I’ve been on a road trip through the southwest collecting medicine and asking the lands to guide my unpredictable path.

read more about my adventures and what these photos represent in my desert newsletter called:

Eclipse tips from the desert 🌵

where I wrote about the eclipse being like a labyrinth, it will twist and turn you in all directions.

at times you’ll feel so far from your destination and yet so close, but you are always connected to the center, your source.

above is a direct link to ⬆️ read more…

during this eclipse season don’t shield yourself from change by suggesting because things have been so they shall remain.

if there is one thing the desert teaches, everything can change in a moment.

for the next few days let yourself be open to the labyrinth of life and follow the source that is asking you to breakdown your walls and trust the great big unpredictable unknown…

I will be sharing my new desert eclipse medicine in Montreal on 4/23 crafted from these lands!

receive a special rock and flower essences from these travels at this pivotal point in our collective.

Desert Bloom for the Pink Full Moon
a creatrix circle to walk the inner labyrinth of your magic with the wisdom of the desert. (see event link above for details)

blessed be to all on this eclipse portal, may the invincible light and dark of the sun recalibrate our destiny…

Love 💕
