I took this photo at Westonbirt Arboretum this morning. This little Robin really made their presence known.

British and Celtic folklore say that robins carry messages from deceased loved ones. Seeing a robin, especially after a loss, is often interpreted as a sign that the person’s spirit is near and that they are watching over you, providing comfort, love, and hope.

I’m currently working with the Archangels on ’s Angel Alchemy course - for me the Robin was a message from Archangel Haniel to keep going and continue to release things that no longer serve me.

Do you have messages from across the veil too, from birds, feathers floating down into your path, cloud formations, butterflies? 🦋

Nature teaches us so much if we’d only stop and take note. 🐝 🌱 🌺

This amazing dragonfly skeleton was in our potting shed. Look at those wings … a message from the dragons about transformation, perhaps? 🐉

Gorgeous sunset in Burnham on Sea. Inspirational and bringing renewed faith and hope - together we can get through these difficult times.

You are not one, you are a thousand. Just light your lantern.

“Wherever you go, go with all your heart.”
- Confucius

Grounding in nature this week has helped me to de-stress. Delicate anemones like this one pictured has helped me soften. Taking meditative moments to watch bees and a fledgling blackbird peck a fallen apple has brought joy. Exercising amongst trees away from my computer and pressing deadlines has helped me cut through overwhelm and be more productive. I am reminded to be grateful and cherish each moment.

I have done much reflecting and releasing things that no longer serve me. I am completing projects and learning how patience is a virtue and how to manage my anxiety better. I’m learning new skills, pendulum dowsing, crystal healing and Sanskrit Mantras and Yoga Sutras.

So the question is - where do I put my energy? What lights me up and makes me happy? How may I serve for my highest good and the highest good of all? Wherever I end up - like Confucius says, I go with all my heart.

So true - be kind - and note to self: start with self love 🥰

It's okay to feel both the highs and lows. Your journey includes moments of joy, sadness, quiet, and chaos. Embrace every aspect of your experience—they all make you beautifully human. You're stronger than you realize. 💙✨
