Here’s a little picture from last night’s Circle of Re-membering. 🕯️

It was absolutely lovely to gather with these beautiful souls. To be honest, I almost canceled this event—there’s been so much happening in my personal life, and a big part of me felt like I couldn’t show up. But something I’m learning (and something we talked about a lot last night) is that 90% of life really is just showing up. Not perfectly, not bravely, not magically transformed… just present.

And sometimes showing up means being available to receive help too. Letting others hold us. Letting community be medicine. There is something so beautiful in that.

We talked about hope, about the incredible strength we all have to move through these difficult times, and we ended with a tender candle-lighting ritual that felt like a small flame of collective courage.

I feel so lucky to know such gorgeous humans and to spend time with them in sacred space. 🤍

If you’re feeling the pull, we still have room for Sunday’s online gathering at 9am. I chose this time so it would be accessible to most places in the world. You can sign up via the portal in the bio. I’d love to see you there. 🌿

Sometimes when I don't know what to do, I sit down with a pen and journal and ask something wiser out there if it can offer some guidance.

It has been quite the week. So, I sat down and this letter came through. It sounds like many of us are working through challenging waters, so I thought I'd share it in case you need this today.

Some deeper, honest and revelatory reflections that were inspired by this past Mercury in retrograde.

It’s more truthful than tidy, more human than heroic.
And yeah, I’m sweating at the thought of people reading it — maybe that’s how I know it was the one I needed to write.

Today is Small Business Saturday, and I felt it deep when I woke up.

Running your own little thing in the world is amazing and messy and terrifying and freeing all at once. It asks everything of you. Especially if, like me, your natural habitat is a quiet room, candlelight, books, solitary hikes… you know… hermit culture.

Putting myself out there is honestly the hardest part. I can build, create, research, make magic behind the scenes for hours — but saying “hey, world, this is me, this is my work, this is my offering”? That’s a different level of bold. Because at heart, I really do prefer the edges, the trees, the back row.

But here’s the truth:
I love what I do.
I believe in it with my whole being.
And even on the days it feels impossibly hard, and I wonder who let a hermit start a business in the first place…

…I wouldn’t give it up for the world.

So today (and really, this whole season), I’m asking you to remember this when you're choosing where to spend your money:

When you support a small business, you’re not just buying a thing — you are literally feeding families. Mine included. Your purchases pay rent. Buy groceries. Cover dance class passes. Fill gas tanks. Put warmth in homes.

You are literally keeping humans afloat.
You’re not just shopping — you’re sustaining life.
This year more than ever, please spend your money supporting small businesses with big hearts, handmade goods, sacred offerings, wild creativity, healing services, cozy spaces, thoughtful products, dream-driven brands.

You are literally feeding families.

And I’ll be sharing several throughout the day — small businesses I adore, creators I believe in, magic-makers you can support with your purchases.

Because when one of us rises, we all rise.

Thank you for seeing the value, feeling the heart, and keeping people fed.

Spend your money with intention today, and know:
You are literally feeding families.

Perhaps this sounds familiar:

This time of year can feel like a swirl—of travel, gathering, emotions, memories, and so many tiny decisions about how to care for ourselves and the people we love.

I’ve been thinking about gifts that truly support someone’s inner season—especially those navigating transition, awakening, grief, or deep personal change. With that in mind, I’m offering a limited number of Year-Ahead Reading gift certificates this year for $249.

These readings explore the major themes, transits, and invitations of the year ahead—perfect for someone longing for clarity, grounding, or a renewed sense of direction.

Each gift certificate includes a 5% donation to a nonprofit, chosen by the giver. The organizations I’m highlighting this year are:
🛡️ The Defending Our Neighbors Fund
🌲 The Wilderness Society
🗳️ Common Cause
🌿 The Native American Rights Fund

There’s no purchase link—just message me if you’d like to gift one to someone you love.

And if you’re considering a Year-Ahead Reading for yourself, a gentle reminder that January always books up fast, so feel free to reserve your spot early which you can do via the portal in the comments.

No pressure—just a meaningful offering for a tender season. 🤍

Something happened to me last week that I’m still trying to metabolize.

Yesterday, while sitting on a sun-warmed bench in the Rhododendron Garden, I witnessed a moment in nature so symbolic and shocking that it felt like the universe was speaking directly to me.

It captured exactly what has been dying—and being reborn—in my psyche.

I wrote about it here.

What. A. Week.

The all-the-things-in-Scorpio threshold was one I'm not likely to forget soon.

So grateful for the grace of death and shedding layer upon layer.

Sitting in the park with tea, wild geese, and nothing but the hum of ever-okayness was my medicine today.

Many people use astrology to predict life.

I use it to participate in life.

It’s not a belief system or a personality quiz — it’s my daily soul practice.

A way to listen, to witness, to meet each moment as part of a living conversation with the cosmos.
This week’s piece is about what astrology becomes when it stops being content — and starts being a living practice.

I’m the worst at taking photos during group events… but we had one last night and it was wonderful. ✨

So you get this one instead — the morning after, with the Tea Temple still humming from all the love, and Alice making her cameo in the background.

Our Circle of Remembering was such a hit — six beautiful souls gathered, and together we went deep into reflection, sharing, and holding space for one another. We closed with a little letting-go ritual, and honestly… it was pure magic.

My heart feels so full this morning. 🌿

Last Chance to Save Your Seat!

There’s a quiet magic that happens when we gather—not to fix or achieve—but simply to remember.

The Circle of Re-membering is a monthly space to slow down, reconnect with soul, and return to what’s sacred within and around us. It’s part meditation, part reflection, part gentle ritual… and entirely human.

This Friday, we’ll gather in person at the beautiful tea temple at Tortoise House, where I’ll be pouring traditional gongfu-style tea as part of our circle — a one-of-a-kind evening of presence, warmth, and mutual support.

If you’d prefer to stay cozy at home, there’s also an online Circle on Sunday morning — same spirit, different doorway.
I know it can be hard to leave the house this time of year. But every person who’s come to this gathering has said the same thing: it’s soul-nourishing on every level.

This circle is my offering of community without dogma — a place to feel connected to something larger than yourself, and to one another. We share stories, reflections, and practical support for our real lives. It’s about remembering we don’t have to do this alone.

🌕 FREE / Donation-based (your presence can be your donation)
🌿 Six spots left for Friday’s gathering

A Story of Connection

Katrina Nilsson-Gorman is a survivor, multipotentialite and innovator. She is not a therapist or a life coach--what she brings to the plate is something entirely new.

​The programs she developed come entirely from years of seeing therapists, doctors, life coaches, gurus, you name it--recognizing what worked and what didn't work. More than anything, she has a passion for connection--deep connection to one's true self, connection to an unconditionally loving community and connection to the natural environment. A life-long devotee of the arts, nature, and personal growth/exploration, she comes with a curious melange of talents, gifts and offerings. Having traversed the globe in search of interesting and successful healing modalities, she came back to the US in 2014 as a Reiki Master. From there, she began the path to realizing she was a full-body empath and effective vehicle for energy, and translating archetypes into meaningful messages for clients. She has an unabashed adoration for nature and is living proof that adequate time outside can lead to greater health and fulfillment.
