LET THERE BE LOVE

The water theme continues this lunar month with the Two of Cups subtitled, disarmingly simply, Love. While last month invited us to notice where love had grown conditional or dulled by familiarity, this card welcomes us into the joy of connection freely given and freely received.

We use the word love so casually that it can lose its gravity. Yet the spiritual traditions of the world point to something far deeper than sentiment or chemistry. They describe a love that perceives no separation, a love that recognises the other as an extension of the self; a love that is, at its heart, divine.

This isn’t about romance. It isn’t about preference, attachment, or even affection. It’s the kind of love that sees through masks, stories, wounds, and roles. It sees essence. And once you see essence, see soul, you can’t help but respond to the world with a quiet, steady reverence. A love of all life.

Myth has whispered this truth for millennia. When Isis gathered the scattered pieces of Osiris, it wasn’t just devotion. It was the recognition that what lives in one life echoes through and augments another. When Radha sees Krishna, she sees the divine in playful disguise. These stories don’t ask us to imitate the supernatural. They remind us that love at its purest recognises what is eternal in another being.

So this month, the invitation is to explore, invite, and recognise this unconditional love flowing through the world in an embodied way. Not as an idea, but as a lived reality. It's a love of life - all life. I offer some suggestions on how to do this here, but I'm sure you can discover many more.

Presence: In many teachings, love begins with presence; the willingness to meet another being fully, without agenda or distraction. Whether it's the Zen practice of “just listening,” the Christian tradition of contemplative compassion, or the Sufi devotion of beholding the Beloved in all faces, the message is the same.

Love pays attention. To truly see someone is to offer them dignity. To truly hear them is to offer them sanctuary. To hold space without rushing to fix, solve, or advise is one of the purest forms of love we have.

Stories reflect this too. In Buddhist lore, Quan Yin hears the cries of the world because she listens to and witnesses its suffering without turning away. Her compassion is not sentimental; it is a form of deep, unwavering presence. In a world saturated with noise, this kind of presence is medicinal.

Contemplate: Are you fully present to life?

Service: Spiritual love moves into action not from duty or martyrdom, but from recognition that another's wellbeing is part of your own.

Many traditions speak of this as service; not servitude, but sacred reciprocity. The Bhagavad Gita calls it seva, selfless action. Jesus speaks of it as loving your neighbour as yourself. Indigenous teachings frame it as caring for the community and the land as an extension of your own body.

In the Navajo Beauty Way, living well means tending the harmony between yourself, your people, and the earth. Service becomes a way of restoring the world’s balance.

We support, uplift, tend, and help not because we’re trying to be good, but because love naturally expresses itself as nourishment. Love feeds what it values, protects what is vulnerable, and strengthens what is emerging.

Contemplate: Where does your heart call you to serve joyfully?

Connection, collaboration, and interdependence: At a spiritual level, love is the recognition that nothing exists in isolation. Buddhism calls this interbeing. Kabbalah calls it the unbroken unity of creation.

Myth reveals it again and again through cosmic pairs whose union keeps the world in balance. Like the Sky Father and Earth Mother whose embrace brings forth life. To love unconditionally is to live from that awareness - that your words ripple, your actions resonate, and your inner state vibrates into the field we all share.

You are not one small life moving alone through the world. You are a node in a vast web of being. As you serve and support others in that web, so the web supports and holds you.

Contemplate: How easily do you collaborate and reach out for help, or do you tend to rely only on yourself?

When times feel dark, remember your song. Sing up. Sing it out. Let it call the light back in.

I recently went to see this incredible trio of musicians, and this song captivated me. Its message reached right into my heart on so many levels.

I hope it touches something deep in you too. 💛

As soon as the rains arrive, my partner and I head out on our walks, tools in hand, to clear the drains and gullies that carry water safely down the hills around us. It’s become a small ritual of care for our little hamlet on the valley floor - simple, steady work that’s spared us many troubles when the storms roll in.

That last full moon in Ta**us was a powerful one, and I’m still feeling its impact in my body (it fell in my sixth house, after all). Here in Carmarthenshire, her supermoon tide pulled high and hard, joining forces with a relentless downpour. Old stone bridges vanished beneath rising rivers, and houses in nearby villages stood several inches deep in water.

As I sent Reiki to those affected — and gave thanks that our home remained untouched — I felt the moon’s deep sorrow. It was as if she wept for the imbalance we’ve created in the world, her rain the tears of a loving mother watching her children drift too far from harmony. Her message was clear: pay attention.

I wonder if we did. Did so much water help us remember our responsibility — to the land, to one another, to balance itself?

This poem came back to me from years ago, and it feels right to share it now. May it remind you, as it does me, to listen to the waters and tend what you can. And may you stay safe and dry through our ever-wilder, wetter winters.

At 1:19pm (UK) today, this potently feminine moon invites stillness, reflection, and deep embodiment. Breathe into your body. Listen to your heart and soul. Allow mystery and uncertainty to be your teachers.

We’re remembering ancient wisdom now — and learning to hold it differently. This time, we balance that knowing with the stabilising love, compassion, and beauty of the Divine Feminine and the spirit world. It's a return to what really matters, what truly has value x

At this time, the spirit world - including the spirit within you - is closer and easier to reach. You might like to take a walk after dark, lay a place at your table for lost loved ones - human or animal, or release patterns and habits ready to be transformed. Trust your intuition to guide you to what feels right. The veil is thinner than usual now. Listen with your heart x

The small miracles and beauty of the ordinary sustain me most. My Sagittarius ascendant finds patterns and meaning in the simple details of life. At the beginning of my spiritual journey, I was all for escaping from what I perceived as a harsh and cruel world - through meditation and esoteric study. Ultimately, though, it brought me right back down to earth. To here, now, this body, my relationship with all life. My personal journey is always ongoing, but now my focus is on sharing what I’ve learned, hoping I can ease the path to a soul-led life for others. And so to a more beautiful world for us all x

You keep searching for what’s already here. Discontent clouds your vision, and presence clears it. What if the thing you’re longing for has been waiting patiently under your nose all along? x

This lunar month is a time for heart renewal; for letting love, gratitude, and gentle joy restore your inner light. The more you pour appreciation into your world, the more beauty you’ll see reflected back. Choose love again, and again, and again.

RENEW YOUR HEART THROUGH GRATITUDE AND LOVE

After months of intensity and transformation, the Four of Cups invites you to pause, breathe, and let the emotional waters settle. This is a time to reflect and remember what truly nourishes your heart, not through striving or seeking but through quiet appreciation.

When the world feels heavy with conflict and fear, when headlines stir despair or exhaustion, it’s easy to become trapped in noticing only what’s wrong. This lunar cycle asks you to turn your gaze gently inward towards the light that is still here - the love, kindness, and beauty that persist beneath the noise.

The quickest way to calm the waters of restless discontent is through gratitude. Start by naming the small, steady blessings that hold your life together: clean water, warmth, a safe home, the sound of laughter, freedom of expression. These are the daily miracles you can so easily overlook. You change your experience simply by shifting the way you think and feel about it.

Notice, too, how love moves through your life. Do you offer it freely, or hold it back, waiting for it to be returned or earned? Do you lose yourself in others’ needs or hold on to them too tightly? As Kahlil Gibran wrote, “Love possesses not nor would it be possessed; for love is sufficient unto love.”

The luxury of the Four of Cups isn’t about indulgence, it’s about the richness of presence. When you rest in awareness of the love already here - the warmth of friends, the misty gold of morning light, the simple rhythm of breath - your heart becomes a sanctuary, unshaken by outer turbulence.

If impatience or frustration arises, as I'm seeing in many clients currently, remember: calm water reflects the clearest vision. Inspiration and clarity won’t come from effort or force this month. They’ll come like a breeze rippling across the waves — softly, naturally, when you’ve made enough space for them to land.

Gratitude restores flow. What you seek may already be before you, just waiting for you to see it and act upon it. The more you drop into appreciation for what already is and for who you already are, the more creative space you make for what can be.

When you align your will with Spirit, freedom stops being about escape and becomes a creative force for love in the world. The more you flow with the natural laws of harmony and reciprocity, the freer you become. Breathe in and be free. Breathe out and belong x

It's my heartfelt prayer that humanity as a whole comes to understand this soon. It would change so much x

In my latest article I explore the spiritual meaning of freedom. Not a free-for-all, but living in harmony with the universal law of balance to nourish self and the greater whole. It's very appropriate for Libra season following the Autumn Equinox. To read the full article - including podcast version - follow the link in the comments below x


SPIRITUAL FREEDOM: Living by the universal law of balance

The paradox of freedom

We often think of freedom as being able to do whatever we want, whenever we want. No rules, no limits, no one to answer to. But if you look closely, that kind of “freedom” doesn’t usually bring peace or fulfilment. It creates chaos, disconnection, and harm. True spiritual freedom has never been about a free-for-all. It’s about living in harmony with the universal laws that hold the cosmos together.

The ancients understood this. Every tradition tells us in its own way that real freedom comes through balance. The Egyptians called it Ma’at, the principle of truth and order that even the gods had to honour. In Taoism, Lao Tzu reminds us to follow the natural course rather than force our own. "The best character is like water. The water's goodness is that it benefits the myriad things but does not quarrel, and it willingly goes to where others hate." And Hindu philosophy speaks of dharma; the right way of living that aligns us with the whole.

You can see this law of balance everywhere, not just in spiritual teaching but woven through the natural world. The cosmos itself holds steady through the dance of gravity and dark energy. Your body seeks to achieve and maintain balance to stay alive and well (homeostasis). Even human societies survive only when they manage resources with sustainability in mind. Balance is a living law of nature.

So freedom isn’t the absence of limits. It’s discovering the deeper pattern that allows life to flourish, and choosing to move with it.

Universal law and sacred limits

When we hear the word limit, it can sound like a restriction, as if something precious is being taken away. But in spiritual truth, limits are what make freedom possible. A river only flows because its banks hold it. Music only exists because silence frames the sound. Without boundaries, nothing can take form.

Across wisdom traditions, this principle is clear. The Stoic philosopher Epictetus taught, “Freedom is the right to live as we wish, yet to wish rightly.” In other words, freedom isn’t about endless indulgence; it’s about aligning our choices with what sustains life.

Mythology shows this law at work in story. Icarus longed for unbounded flight, but ignoring the natural limits of sun and sky and the interaction of elements cost him his life. By contrast, King Arthur’s knights in the Grail quest succeed not through reckless adventure but through humility, kindness, discipline, and devotion to a higher order.

The universal law of balance doesn’t demand sacrifice in the sense of loss. It invites us to see beyond the small self. When we choose in harmony with the greater whole, we don’t just protect others; we discover a deeper joy, a freedom rooted in belonging.
