A blessed new moon 🌙

A New Moon in Scorpio on 19th November 2025 reveals truth hidden within the depths of our inner worlds.

Sun, Moon and Mercury are in exact conjunction at 28o Scorpio.

Scorpio New Moon is here to deliver a message. Mercury was the one who could travel freely between worlds. Called the ‘messenger of the Gods’ and the ‘guide of Souls’ – we are receiving messages and transmissions from our Soul.

Then there is Uranus, like a flash of lightening or an illumination that awakens us towards deeper truth. Awakenings and revelations rise from the depths, as this New Moon reveals what’s been hidden and allows old patterns to clear.

This new moon falls in Anuradha nakshatra, the “star of success.”
Anuradha brings success through cooperation with others and is ruled by Mitra, an ancient Vedic god of friendship. Symbolised by a fragrant lotus flower that rises out of the mud, this New Moon can heal and establish new trust in relationships.

Lots of mind and nervous system energy comes with this New Moon. Researching, editing, organising past dreams and projects. Clearing our space and belongings. As well as old memories.

Go easy, go slow, pace yourself.

A current of luck and divine grace is increasing in the weeks to come as bright and exalted Jupiter gazes at both Saturn and this New Moon. This beneficial aspect supports education, work and building sustainable structures in your life.

We can sip deep of emotional renewal, transformation, and personal power. Scorpio is the sign of alchemy, endings that become beginnings, shadows that turn into strengths.

Under this lunation, clarity often comes through honesty: the kind that asks us to confront what’s hidden, release what’s toxic, and make peace with what we’ve outgrown.

This is a potent moment for setting intentions rooted in our emotional truth.

Scorpio energy asks for depth, not surface-level change. If you’ve been carrying old fears, resentments, or attachments, this New Moon invites you to compost them into wisdom. In doing so, you make space for something more aligned to take root, like intimacy, empowerment, or a new sense of direction that feels truly authentic.

The day after this lunation, the Sun enters Sagittarius, shifting the tone from introspection to expansion. Where Scorpio asks you to dig deep, Sagittarius opens the horizon, helping you find meaning and faith in what’s next. Together, these energies remind you that real transformation doesn’t end in the dark, it ends in illumination.

This New Moon encourages you to trust your ability to start again from a place of inner strength.
• What truth will set me free?

• What part of myself is ready to be reborn?

• How can I turn past suffering into deeper wisdom or purpose?

• What does emotional honesty look like for me right now?

This New Moon is delicate, deep, and transformational. Slow down so you allow the depth of digestion to take place in body and life.

Our emotional body is more intuitive and clairvoyant if the channels are open to receive insight. Renewal and rebirth are taking place. This requires deep transformation internally.

This cycle is best used for rest and contemplation. Think before you act and don’t make rash decisions you may regret later.

Scorpio is the sign of death, endings, loss, and serious life challenges.

Transform, release, let go. Digest emotions, listen to your body wisdom, and use your powerful instincts. Rely on your inner wisdom, instead of physical strength.

What body part is getting this illumination? Pay attention, stay curious, and ask your body to share its messages with you.

In the coming cycle, find a new balance point. Redefine what depth means for you. Use the storms to cleanse you. Plant your inner seeds and find your ground. Unify and strengthen your inner power. Let Spirit be a guiding force for your higher purpose. Clear away the rubble and clarify your path and purpose. Transform your darkness into light.

We cannot know what comes next. The future can’t be known - it can only be created. Lived into. It emerges from the momentary choices we make and the thoughts we think. It hinges on the quality of our awareness, our relationship with what is, and our ability to allow vital energy to flow through channels and systems.

Take your place in the world as a simple Self. An individual with a willingness to not know but to wonder, and to extend a kind of flexible, responsive certainty that is appropriate for the renaissance we find ourselves in.

Being less sure is an opening for the growing of faith…

Live your simplicity

Crossing the threshold into the realms of liminality... these times have been seen and felt by our ancestors since the beginning of time as the period when we look back and remember...

We may feel nostalgia for days gone by, to all the people we have known and loved and to all the many lives we have lived within our time and space here ...

We are in a potent period of transmutation, cradled within the depths of Scorpio. An earthly and otherworldly transformation moment.

We are called to travel in deeper into the cavernous abodes that nourish our senses, that calm our bodies and dissolve our entanglements.

The land holds the secrets of wholeness and worth that restore and return us home...

This Full Moon in Ta**us on 5th November 2025 is illuminating the themes of stability, self-worth, and integrity. Ta**us energy invites us to embody our worth and live from that place.
How does it feel to be living on the edge?

For so long now, it has seemed that one version of the world is crumbling. Falling apart. Dying away. 2020 changed the existing order.
In 2025, the vapours of illusion burn off as the heat of a new era rises.
Life seems to be hanging by a fragile thread.
In this time of transition, it is easy to drift untethered.

The chaos in the world can be creative - if we hold in to our hearts.

2026 is a year we have been collectively anticipating since everything shifted in 2020. It contains the rarest alignments.

Break free from Stagnation.
The climate feels wild, combustive, and unpredictable. Can you trust more fully in not-knowing?
Hold your knowledge with continued curiosity.
Dare to tolerate differences.
Have the wisdom to question your perceptions and continually seek more understanding.
Release what has become rigid and stuck to make way for peace, beauty, and unification.
Under this lunation, you’re asked to stand firmly in what you offer, to recognise the value you bring, and to let your actions reflect the principles you live by.

This is a moment to check in with your core values: are your choices, work, and relationships aligned with what you truly stand for?

The Ta**us–Scorpio axis asks us to balance the tangible and the emotional, what we own and what we share.

This Full Moon sheds light on where you’ve outgrown old definitions of security or success and invites you to ground yourself in authenticity.

You may find yourself taking stock — assessing how stable your foundations feel, and how rooted your worth is. Ta**us teaches that true security is never built on rapid change but on sustained presence, patience, and trust in your own process.

The invitation is to slow down, trust what you’ve built, and embody the quiet confidence of knowing your worth.

• Integrity in Action
• Grounded Growth

This epic supermoon is the sacred Kartika Purnima, one of the most spiritually-charged full moons. Its radiant light can reach the darkest corners of the world and the human psyche, illuminating and healing the heart. In India, Kartika Purnima is the day when Lord Shiva.

This Full Moon is also celebrated as Dev Diwali in the holy city of Varanasi, where thousands of oil lamps are lit along the riverbanks. This year, those lights will extend into the heavens, as the Southern Taurids meteor shower reaches its peak under the full moon’s brilliance.

In Vedic astrology, the Full Moon falls in Bharani, the sacred star of the womb. Bharani represents the divine feminine life force and the power of nature to heal and renew itself.

Bharani full moon is ruled by Yama, the god of death, who guides departed souls toward rebirth. Under this star, endings and beginnings merge, and what dies becomes the nourishment for what is to come.

Life and death are intimately intertwined and Bharani nakshatra reminds us of this. The va**na is a powerful creative force and is connected to the strength of the Divine Feminine, as well as all female bodies. The birthing process is an act of transformation, release, death and new beginnings.

What are you birthing in your life?

A re-birthing arrives with this cycle.

Notice what is being supported and what is not. It’s time to make some choices about where you want to go, and what you want to create for your life. If you aren’t getting the support of Natural Law that you want and need, you need to redirect and pivot.

This Ta**us Super Full Moon aches with the beauty of it all...
Life in all of its complexity, its beauty and its strife, is a cup for us to hold sacred...
these times are very busy, our days are filled with activities
Let's find our flow within the movement and find our stillness within the motion...
And when our busy days are done, let's sit by candlelight or linger under the moonlight and allow the season to hold us and bring us to a place of grace...

I’ve been thinking to share something on this for a year now, since I first had a diagnosis of endometriosis. More to come, I feel to share the ways in which I’ve found support. I’d love to hear from you about your experiences ♥️

My lunch 🍁

An autumn feast, inspired by hunger and a morning of conversation with a dear friend,

I’m day 2 of my cycle and my body needs deep nourishment. Everything on my plate provided that, from delighting my senses with beautiful colours and delicious smells, to the taste of each and every ingredient satisfying a place within my very bones

Gabrielle and I are birthing a new adventure together… and there will be food ✨

All the ingredients came from my veg box from , and . I made the ghee myself 😋 with butter from . All in season, all nourishing my Vata body, all absolutely delicious. And there’s enough for a second meal later 🙌🏽

Is there anyone else out there who just can’t get enough roast squash right now? Yum 🍁🍂🍁

Finding ways to integrate… the little ones desire for Halloween 🎃 and my love of Samhain. So we spent this week crafting decorations and dreaming in time with friends 🍁 we shared a feast and played games and gave thanks. And then there was the going out into the night and collecting plentiful sweetie treasures 🍬 I was reassured that our older teens talk more of Samhain each year and take joy in hearing about the older ways. We keep going with the weaving, and trust they will remember 🍁✨🍁🍂🕸️✨🍁🍂🕸️✨

Autumn 🍂 a moment in time

This morning I tried to capture the incredible light that shone from within and around this tree, the glow of autumn.

I walked with my friend Leti, our favourite morning stomp through the woods. We share a practice of walking together, talking about life, sowing seeds of future plans, stopping to gaze in wonder as our woods, our trees, transform right in front of our eyes

Leti is from Brazil 🇧🇷 years ago, as a student, I visited Brazil and one of the things I learned deep in my heart was the lesson of saudade, the heart longing ♥️ this morning we talked of autumn as saudade, a brief moment, almost just one breath and then gone 🍂

I keep thinking, no feeling, that the colours of autumn are gifted to us as the way to transition from summer to winter - being outside, bathing ourselves in the glorious colours, feeds us on such a deep level that we are nourished enough to hold ourselves through the winter months. Knowing that nature loves us enough to gift us this moment of glorious beauty. Holding us steady so that we are resourced to carry on doing the work that is needed

Holding ourselves, releasing what is past, the exhale

Autumn love 🍁

Full moon blessings ✨🌝✨

October opens its windows with a Full Moon in Aries on the 6th. This Full Moon completes the Eclipse New Moon cycle.

Revelations … we can understand, review, revise and restore. We arrive at the truth of the matter.

We know that we must remain anchored in loving relationship with Self. The dialogue that lies within and hidden is the architect of our lives.

Any triggers now are an opportunity to work through and not avoid. We must understand how we are changing, who we are becoming.

Pause. Ponder. Then respond. Be clear and intentional.
A new beginning is here.
Claim your courage.

Take that first step, trust, it might feel like a leap of faith. And yet you can and will discover that you can fly.

The Aries Moon asks: Where are you ready to stop waiting and start acting?

This lunation is about finding the courage to speak truthfully, set boundaries, and trust your deepest instincts.

At its core, the Aries Full Moon reminds us that clarity grows when we honour our own agency. That clarity, while sometimes uncomfortable, is the beginning of a forward momentum.

Even in situations where you don’t control the outcome, you can choose to act in alignment with your truth, set clear intentions, and step forward with courage.

Beginnings seeded within endings.

Spiritual growth now isn’t about retreat or withdrawal — it’s about testing your truth in real time. Journaling, breathwork, or physical practices (like yoga or walking meditations) can help integrate the fiery energy into grounded awareness.

The October 6th harvest Full Moon is a super moon and this auspicious Full Moon brings a powerful blessing with it.

Called Sharad Purnima, this is the Full Moon when Goddess Lakshmi showers the earth with a blessed light, and enlivens the kalas of love, compassion, courage, creativity, and joy.

To receive the blessings on this full moon, step outside and take a moment to soak in the moonlight. This is the perfect night to create “moon water or moon milk”—place a glass of water (or use sweetened dairy, oat, or almond milk) beneath the moonlight for a few hours. It is also good for charging crystals.

The Sharad Purnima is also the night of the magical rasa-lila, an ecstatic dance of the gopis with Lord Krishna that lasted for an eternity.

This year’s Sharad Full Moon falls in the area of the sky called Revati, a star of nourishment, refuge and guidance. Revati is the final of all the 27 lunar mansions, signalling endings and new beginnings. It’s also the star that protects and guides lost animals, travellers and souls home. Revati nakshatra is the last constellation of the zodiac. Its ruling deity, Pushan, helps make travels prosperous and nourishing. He supports the path and allows receiving, abundance, and offers resources for greater support and guidance.

Pushan helps those that are lost find their purpose and he will redirect you towards your path. He is the shepherd that finds the lost sheep and brings them back to the flock. He protects and nourishes all paths and will help you locate the hidden treasures on your journey.

The deeper lessons of this Full Moon may come with a chance to let go of the past and head for a higher and more nourishing ground.

Something positive is taking root now, even if it may not yet be fully visible. This is a Full Moon to reclaim your light and visualise the blessings of peace and protection falling like rain over the earth.

The moon, or our moon signs, are said to represent the inner landscape of our beings. Our emotions are ruled by our moon sign. We will feel these fully.

Old identities and outdated roles fall away. Masks slip. Image burns off in the fire. What remains is raw essence. The courage to simply be.

Perception sharpens. Insight cuts to the truth. What was hidden comes into view.

We are stripped bare, granted vision to see things, especially ourselves in new light. We release false layers of identity and recognise a deeper truth of who we are.

What next?
What old story of self is finished?

Now is an invitation to slow down, take stock and re assess how we are moving forward and to reconnect ever more deeply to our ‘why’.

To truly ‘hear’ our authentic Selves - we must carve out time to truly listen.

Our identity is not static – it’s not a flawless portrait frozen in time – but is shaped, again and again - like a carving of something exquisite.

Shakti, life force energy, is at an all-time low right now. Inner waters are slow and trickling. The body dries out easily and feels extra sensitive.

This is not a time to deplete your life force further. Ayurveda offers incredible wisdom for increasing life force energy in the body. This is a good time to get more rest, eat warm, easily digestible foods, do your fall cleanse, and stay warm. Follow your Ayurvedic protocols and be vigilant with your health.

Doors are closing. Are you honouring the process of letting go properly? Are you making space for the new? Immense potential is available. Be intentional with what you are creating.

Anchor, Dream and let light create the matrix to manifest all you truly are ....

During these next three nights of Navratri, we celebrate Maa Saraswati, also known as Hamsa Devi (Goddess of the Swan). She is the healing, cleansing and illuminating aspect of Divine Mother, who governs sound, music, healing, wisdom, knowledge and the arts.

Saraswati means “She Who Flows,” because she represents Om/Aum, the most sublime vibration of the Universe that streams into all of creation through the blissful divine sound current (Nada Brahma).

In other words, Saraswati is the essence of the purifying and creative force within the divine spiritual energy that flows from Source as the "water of life." May the grace of Saraswati bestow protection on all beings, especially those in harm's way in all corners of the world.

Aum Aing Saraswatye Namah! Aum Aing Saraswatye Namah! Aum Aing Saraswatye Namah!

(Indian miniature painting of Saraswati, 19th century, Zentner Collection))

Equinox blessings to you today ✨
As the seasons shift we come to the time of Navaratri, the nine nights of the Goddess, when we honour the divine in the many faces and forms of Ma ⭕️ 🔥🌹

The nine nights begins tonight, with a descent into the depths of darkness within which the Goddess Durga is called forth. As we journey through those nine nights we traverse the depths of our own psyche, alongside the darkness that pervades the world around us at this time. Opening our hearts to the fire of transformation requires courage, and the simple power of devotion to our practice can be the steadfastness we need to see this through.

These recent days and weeks have felt like the dominion of the demon king from the story of Navaratri has been reigning with terror. Every year the story of Navaratri is the same, and a different aspect seems to take precedence - this year, for me, it’s how to stay resourced, stay rooted in devotion to Love as the ultimate force for all. How to stay in the conversation, however uncomfortable it may be, keep standing for the oppressed, for the vulnerable of this world.

I’ll be journeying these nine nights with guidance from Amisha Ghadiali, for the 7th year - if you feel called, I recommended joining Amisha’s offering. At a time where polarisation seems to be in every sphere, Amisha welcomes inclusivity to a practice from her own culture, which feels like a precious gift. Link to Amisha’s profile in comments 🌹

Equinox skies 🌞

After days and days of rain this perfect blue and radiant sunshine, the balance that equinox brings

And I breathe

I’ve been thinking a lot about equinox in recent days, the balance of day and night, light and dark. How it feels as though there is a deep need for balance in our world right now. Recent weeks have seen protests, riots, the polarising of people on one side or another.

I watch my social media feed show both sides of these arguments, debates, ongoing and escalating tensions and fears. In my life I experience many sides to this - there are people I love dearly who share things I am scared and horrified by, people who share things I don’t quite understand, people who seem to echo my own thoughts and feelings. And I watch news reports that seem to push us ever further into one polarity or another, anchor us on one side or another, unable to hear what anyone else is saying and in fear of being labelled or judged.

This morning I’m breathing, and remembering what equinox teaches us about balance - that light and dark, day and night, masculine and feminine and everything in between is all welcome - not just welcome, but essential for the creation and sustaining of life. We are taught to favour one over another - that day is better than night, masculine stronger than feminine, might over softness. But all this does is polarise us and push us apart, when in reality we were born to be together.

We live in a time when inclusivity is essential - and that is challenging for us all. It’s easy to exist in an echo chamber where everyone agrees with you, but reality is not that. We must all challenge ourselves to be truly inclusive, to remember Love at the heart of everything we do

And don’t allow those who profit from pushing us apart to have the final word

So today I’m seeking balance within myself, asking to be shown where within me those polarities exist, how can I soften them and come back to wholeness

Equinox blessings 💫🍂

On September 21st, 2025, we have a powerful Solar Eclipse in Virgo

As we build up to this Solar Eclipse New Moon in Virgo on September 21st at the very final and catalytic 29th degree, we might be coming to some pivotal decisions around what we are complete with...

Day to day things may not appear to change, but what does shift is our perception.

The invitation is less about force and more about surrender, releasing the need to push or perfect life into how the mind thinks everything should be.

The highest medicine that the Virgo archetype embodies is one of reclaiming our own wholeness... and this gift of wholeness is one that comes with a deep acceptance of ourselves and our bodies as being imperfectly perfect and knowing of who we are on a Soul level...

we return to wholeness through our loving

There are three harmonics resonating

Surrender to Trust – Things are already perfect. The field is holding us.

Simplicity as Medicine

Self-Acceptance - even in moments when wisdom feels absent or tools seem forgotten, we are still within the geometry of our becoming.

We are experiencing both transformation and metamorphosis.

The Equinox approaches, day and night in equal balance. Sun and Moon in Eclipse union. Shadow and Light meeting in perfect harmony.

So breathe. Ground. Return to practices that regulate your nervous system, steady the Luminous body, calm the mind, and widen your field of awareness. Create space for lightness, joy, and coherence.

And as you feel into this season, reflect - where were you last September? Where are you now? What wisdom did that eclipse cycle gift you?

This is a South Node eclipse, which brings existing themes to a head and calls for resolution, release, or integration of what has already been set in motion.

Happening just hours before the equinox, this final-degree Virgo eclipse signals a major turning point in what’s been unfolding over the past 6 months.

Everyday choices give our lives a certain rhythm and anchor us. We may need a job to pay our bills, we may need to keep our house in order, we may need to fuel the car to get around. All of these Virgoan concerns are necessary to function in the world.

But the same structures we rely on to manage all these aspects of daily life can also become the prison of our everyday reality – limiting us if we never question or refresh them.

With the Solar Eclipse at 29° Virgo opposing Saturn at 28° Pisces, we are becoming more aware than ever of the limitations of the lifestyle we’ve created for ourselves.

What can we do about these self-made boundaries that both hold us together and hold us back?

But because this is a South Node eclipse, the “new beginning” is not about chasing something brand new. Instead, it’s about refining, improving, or elevating some part of your current reality – taking things to the next level.

What areas of your life need adjustment, so you can free up space to meet the unknown.

This is not about running away from your old life. It is identifying the blocks, what is keeping you in a place you’ve already outgrown – perhaps because it felt safe, or because you didn’t see other options.

Now, it’s time to reimagine a new setup where you can move forward more freely and intentionally.

The Solar Eclipse opposing Saturn and Neptune says: in 5 months from now, you’re going to embark on a major new journey. Start preparing. You have one piece of luggage and 5 months to decide what you’ll pack.

Eclipses often bring sudden pivots. This one is less about dramatic action and more about course correction — shifting away from self-criticism, over-functioning, or old patterns, and moving toward what feels aligned, sustainable, and true.

Think of it as a cosmic checkpoint: you don’t need to do more, you just need to do what matters most.

It is ok to be both breaking and blooming…..

Practical Magic - at 29° Virgo, this lunation points to maturity. You don’t need to reinvent yourself — you need to use what you already know and rely on your lived experience.

Redirection in Action - develop new patterns in health, work, and relationships. Pay attention to what feels unsustainable or heavy. If something ends, it’s making room for a more functional way forward.

Patterns of Belonging - trust where you feel you belong.

This solar eclipse launches a six-month cycle. What shifts now will ripple forward. The work isn’t to manifest in the traditional sense but to cooperate with what’s unfolding.

According to Vedic astrology, this solar eclipse is created by the shadow graha, Ketu, a headless snake that sheds the past and brings karmic liberation. Ketu distorts, transforms, and cuts attachments, forcing new phases to begin. If you’ve been facing inward shifts, struggles, or challenges, this eclipse may mark the cusp of an important breakthrough.

This solar eclipse is in the area of the sky called Uttara Phalguni, a nakshatra of spiritual love, truth, and unity.

This eclipse will open a special portal of healing and empowerment––Navratri, the nine nights of the goddess, when the power of the Divine Feminine rises on earth. Starting Sept 22nd, 2025, for nine-nights, the life-protecting forces of the Divine Mother are honoured and invoked through prayer and ritual.

As each of us experiences a release and feels our profound tenderness and our humanity, we become like healing waters

Gift yourself love and devotion, fill your cup
Repair. Refine. Simplify.
press the reset button, this is a moment pregnant with exquisite precision.
This is a prayer for:
Refinement, not punishment.
Service, not servitude.
Order that allows space for God.
Acts of devotion that heal.

You are the Elixir, sip deeply ....
