New Moon in Ta**us...
Sunday, April 27th, 2025
8:30 PM BST
A very different energy, moving from cardinal fire masculine to fixed earth feminine.
Ta**us takes the spark of inspiration and the seed of intention created in Aries and gives it life, consolidating it into form. The focus shifts from initiating passion and drive to stabilizing focus and nurture.
Ta**us helps us ground and give roots to what we created in Aries, providing the support, structure, and nourishment to bring it to fruition.
This is a time to slow down, get clear and present with the direction you are going, and practice patience and consistency in your efforts to be productive.
Ta**us correlates with the 2nd house of personal resources and material security, more importantly, this Moon is about inner security, feeling safe and at home in your own body - the temple for your Soul.
Ruled by Venus, we are supported to discern the things and the people that nurture us and bring us joy and release what doesn't.
Take time this month to self-care, feed the senses, detox from technology, and connect with nature - ground, center, and balance...
Journal prompt:
How can I ground myself more deeply into the present moment and create sanctuary within? 💫
Affirmation:
I am present, focused, resourceful, and productive.

Navigating the cosmic shifts from Balsamic Moon to Aries Partial Solar Eclipse Energies…
Before the eclipse's dynamic energy takes center stage on Saturday, we are under the influence of the Balsamic Moon. This waning crescent moon is a time for introspection, release, and quiet contemplation. It encourages us to let go of what no longer serves us, preparing the fertile ground for the seeds of new intentions. Instinct and intuition are heightened during this phase, making it ideal for meditation, journaling, and connecting with our inner wisdom.
At the Aries partial solar eclipse, the cosmos invites us to embrace bold new beginnings. This celestial event presents a potent portal for transformation and initiation. Aries, the fiery trailblazer of the zodiac, infuses this eclipse with energies of courage, passion, and assertiveness. It's a time to shed the past, step into our authenticity, and take decisive action toward our true desires.
Together, these cosmic forces create a harmonious dance of endings and beginnings. As the Balsamic Moon guides us to reflect and release, the Aries Solar Eclipse propels us forward with renewed vigor and clarity.
If you're interested in learning how these cosmic energies will influence you personally over the coming months, please PM me.

Spring has officially arrived in the Northern Hemisphere as Autumn falls upon the Southern. The sun is shining here and it feels remarkably warmer today, yay! My favourite time of year…
At the Equinox day and night become equal, symbolizing a balance between these two universal forces and a time of transition.
We are reminded of the interplay between light and dark, highlighting life's dualities – yin and yang. Today presents an opportunity to honour both forces as equally necessary.
Society has taught us to fear the dark, yet it’s at the darkest times during our lives – “The Dark Night of the Soul,” that we discover our light, birthing profound personal transformation in the process.
I have been reading more and more of late about endarkenment and how it is our path to enlightenment and wholeness. In order for humanity to calibrate to the ascending consciousness of these times, we must first individually and collectively reintegrate the dark back to the light, restoring a state of unity and balance within and so without.
If we each take responsibility for our shadow selves, bringing them home to our hearts with compassion, the potential of these times will bring profound rebirths and new beginnings…

When the Sun meets Neptune, we enter a realm where dreams and reality intertwine. This celestial union invites us to explore our imagination, connect with our intuition, and embrace the magic of the unseen.
Under this energy, creativity flourishes, and compassion deepens, but clarity might feel a little hazy—perfect for daydreaming, meditating, or delving into your spiritual side.
Let the cosmic currents guide you!

💫🌌 Have no fear, Mercury Retrograde is here! 🌌💫
The cosmic invitations to pause, reflect, release, and realign are loud and clear at this time. Appropriate for all the changes on the horizon, in preparation for the new cycles they will bring. So many cycles converging and completing, with Neptune at 29° Pisces, Venus Retrograde, and the South Node Luna Eclipse, Mercury is now joining the party!
Mercury Retrograde does not affect us all in the same way. Where Mercury falls in your chart and the houses Mercury rules, plus the house it is transiting at the time of the Retrograde, all come into play. Sure, there are general Mercurial themes that could play out, such as communication wobbles, travel interruptions, and plans changing, but the key is to pay closer attention and keep in mind that patience is your superpower.
So instead of fearing the retrograde, embrace this opportunity to upgrade. Rethink the way you see things, review the way you express yourself, and keep an open mind to fresh perspectives and new ideas. Remember, when Mercury slows down, we’re reminded to do the same.

🌕✨ Witness the transformative energy of the Lunar Eclipse in Virgo! It's time to release, reflect, and renew. Embrace the balance between practicality and spirituality as the cosmos realigns. 🌕✨
A total lunar eclipse in Virgo is a potent time for intentional and grounding practices that align with its themes of release, health, and balance. Here are some meaningful activities you can engage in:
Letting Go Ritual: Write down habits, patterns, or thoughts you want to release—especially those tied to perfectionism or self-criticism. Safely burn the paper (if possible), symbolizing release and transformation.
Decluttering: Virgo energy loves order. Use this time to clean your physical space, organize your belongings, or even declutter your digital life. This practice can help create mental clarity and emotional space.
Health and Wellness Check-In: Reflect on your routines. Journal about your daily habits, focusing on what nurtures your body and mind. You might try gentle activities like yoga, mindful walking, or even meal planning for nourishing food.
Earth Connection: Since Virgo is an earth sign, grounding practices like gardening, walking barefoot on grass, or sitting in nature can help you align with the energy of this eclipse.
Gratitude Practice: Eclipse energy can feel intense, so gratitude can provide balance. Write down what you're thankful for, focusing on the small, practical blessings in your life.
Meditation on Balance: Visualize finding equilibrium between practicality (Virgo) and intuition (Pisces). This could include focusing on your breath, balancing body and mind, or simply being present in the moment.

Venus Retrograde in Aries is stirring up some powerful energy!
When Venus—the planet of love, beauty, and values—goes retrograde, it invites us to look deep within our hearts. In the fiery sign of Aries, this inward journey highlights our need to assert our individuality and break away from old relationship patterns that no longer serve us. It’s a cosmic call to question if our past love decisions truly reflected our authentic desires.
During this time, familiar themes in our relationships might resurface—whether it’s healing old wounds or reconsidering how we express our passion. Aries pushes us to face lingering issues head-on, while Venus helps us realign our values so that our expressions of love and commitment are both bold and beautifully genuine. Embrace this transit and let your inner truth guide you toward a richer, more self-aware way of connecting with others.

🪐♓Neptune at 29° Pisces through March♓🪐
The End of An Era
With a 165 year orbit, Neptune at the last degree of the zodiac marks a significant ending and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Neptune is considered “The Mystic” of the zodiac, it’s principle is Unity. As the higher octave of Venus, it symbolizes a universal love that harmonizes with the Cosmos.
Neptune is imaginative, creative, dreamy, compassionate, inspirational, healing, and idealistic.
Also known as the “Cosmic Solvent,” it dissolves the ego to enable us to move beyond the limitations of our individual self and become one with the greater whole.
This can express Neptune as nebulous, bringing confusion, delusion, deception, indecision, and escapism.
What to Expect Personally
So much Piscean activity this month, with the Sun, Saturn and the North Node also transiting the sign, so you will be feeing it’s influences in one way or another for sure. You may notice an increase in sensitivity and emotions, coupled with heightened intuition or be called to:
Address unresolved issues or incomplete tasks
Make significant decisions
Seek closure as you prepare for a fresh start
If you feel confused, disoriented, or lost, Neptune is encouraging you to surrender. Turn inward and connect with your higher self through meditation, journaling, or creative activities. These practices can unveil hidden truths, leading to transformative experiences and personal growth.

Many of our hobbies and pastimes are an indirect spiritual practice as they not only help us filter out the external noise, they focus our attention on something that helps us relax and enjoy the moment.
The difference with establishing a daily spiritual practice is that you set time aside each day, rain or shine, to unplug and in the quiet stillness, connect your inner and present moment awareness.
To make the most out of your practice:
1. Be consistent – keep to the same time each day to make it easier to incorporate into your daily routine
2. Set an intention – know why you are doing it and what you hope to gain from it
3. Be patient – with yourself, spiritual growth and fulfillment is a journey, detach from outcome
4. Stay open – to new experiences and insights
5. Reflect – keep a journal to capture your insights and track your progress
6. Have compassion – be kind with yourself and avoid self-criticism if you miss a day or struggle with your practice in the beginning
Suggestions to keep your practice interesting:
1. Quiet reflection
2. Mindfulness meditation
3. Gratitude journaling
4. Reading spiritual books
5. Nature walks
6. Mindful breathing

🌑♓️ New Moon in Pisces ♓️🌑
Friday, February 28th @ 00:44 am (GMT)
Wishing all fellow Pisceans a "Happy Birthday" and many blessings for your Solar Return year 🥳🎂
The Pisces New Moon invites us to connect with our intuition, our dreams, and our compassion.
With a Stellium in Pisces and Mars in Cancer, the energies will bring a more sensitive, emotional, and spiritual vibe.
This is the Moon that brings the current astrological year to a close, so make time to reflect on the wisdom you've gained, what still needs to be healed or needs taking care of, and connect-in for Soul and Cosmic guidance.
2025 is a year of great transition, finding your center will be your anchor to weathering the changes the new Age of Aquarius brings...
Most optimal time to "tune-in" and receive your cosmic inspirations for your monthly intentions is 15 minutes before, during, and 15 minutes after the luminary conjunction.
Note: when the exact time is inconvenient, "tuning-in" ahead of time, while the energies are applying, is more optimal than afterwards, when the energies are separatng.

I had just lost my mum and to my surprise my sense of Self as I had always known me. Feeling lost was an understatement, I felt desperate. I was consumed by a void so vast and beyond anything I had experienced before. My mum had played such a significant role in my life that now all I felt was lonely and alone. What was I going to do to move myself forward because I believed staying stuck was only going to result in my downfall.
There was a waiting list for grief counselling and I trusted my instincts that anti-depressants were not for me. I heard a message from deep inside, so faint I had to really pay attention. The guidance was that the light I was seeking to heal and inspire me was not outside of myself, but that I would find it if I turned my attentions within. I just had to connect with it. My question was, “How?”
To cut a long story short, I discovered to my surprise that colour would be life’s gift to bring me home to Self. It opened a new pathway for me to find and, once more, shine my inner light bright.
Studying colour healing showed me colour’s ability to shift raise our vibration, I’d just never considered its practical application in the arena of clothing and makeup.

Nothing makes me feel more fully alive now than when I am connected to and shining my inner light, especially when I see others experience the same. It’s such a simple tool that gifts a lifetime value.
