Thank you to the sweet souls who joined me for our monthly virtual reiki circle last night. So much softness, even in the face of what’s hard. Spirit is always in conversation with us. May we remember that we’re held beyond what our eyes can see and celebrate the connections that last beyond lifetimes 🩵✨

With the New Moon in Pisces on March 18—just two days before the Spring Equinox and the beginning of Aries Season—we may feel like we’re being pulled forward faster than our feet can carry us.

The shift from water to fire is meant to be enlivening, not so abrupt that we burn out before we get the chance to simmer in the magic that’s been brewing beneath the surface.

Conjunct the Sun in Pisces and a major Saturn-Neptune conjunction as both planets have shifted into Aries, there is immense energy for change and action, for dissolving what hasn’t worked in our world for a very long time to make room for more of what does. We will likely feel a call to show up, take responsibility, and engage more with the crumbling and creating taking place around us, offering our compassion and imagination to build new ways of being.

Sextile Uranus in Ta**us, it’s vital that we stay grounded in ourselves, our communities, and the reasons why we’re willing to work so hard to uproot what no longer holds us and lay down a more solid foundation.

Mars and Mercury are also conjunct the North Node in Pisces, which can either push us towards disassociation and numbness or inspire us to channel all our love and wisdom into something beautiful.

The collective consciousness is more than just a spiritual concept; it is a living, breathing energy that connects us across time and space with the guidance of our ancestors and the wellspring of love that unites us all. Can we trust in the strength of our hearts to crack open just a smidge more, to let that love in deeper, and to share without reservation? Healthy boundaries, open hearts is a meditation that will serve us well.

May we remember how sacred it is to feel. May we allow that feeling to reignite our spark and carry us into the next chapter with all the passion and purpose we need to keep going. 🌙✨

The Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo on March 3 offers us the opportunity to shed another layer of control while staying devoted to the routines and practices that help us heal.

This entire cycle of eclipses on the Pisces-Virgo axis has been about the balance of order and chaos, body and spirit, holding on and letting go. We may find ourselves in a full-circle moment, a sense of completion or acceptance washing over us as we reflect on the journey we’ve taken this past year. Where were you able to release your grip on something that wasn’t the healthiest for you? How were you able to create more moments of whimsy and play even while grappling with the hard work of being alive?

Opposite the Sun, Mercury retrograde, and the North Node in Pisces, this tug-of-war between the big picture and the details could have some extra lessons to share with us before the eclipse cycle fully moves on to Aquarius-Leo. Conjunct the South Node in Virgo, we are being asked to cut cords with whatever holds us back from the next chapter in our evolution. Less overthinking, more feeling into and embodying the changes we want to embrace.

Sextile Jupiter in Cancer, there is a very nurturing, intuitive energy that wants to hold us through these shifts, but we do need to boldly move outside of our comfort zone if we want to keep growing. Hold onto what supports you in challenging outdated behaviors and beliefs and seriously question what tries to keep you stuck in the same. Who we are at our core is love, and that will never change. Allow the other pieces that don’t make sense to dissolve to make room for more of what is real.

We are all on this healing journey together, my loves. Deep breaths. We got this. 🌕✨

Thank you to the sweet souls who joined me for our monthly virtual reiki circle last night. It is one of my greatest joys to get to share these peaceful, restorative, deeply moving evenings with you. Last night there was a lot of green energy, the hope of spring returning and brighter days ahead. May we never abandon that hope. May we continue to grow our capacity to hold all that is, releasing what’s ready to be shed, embracing what we’re ready to welcome in. See you again soon, loves 🌱💜✨

Full Moon in Leo Collective Card Reading 🌕 ✨ The Hermit, Ace of Thunder, The Unseen

Leo energy is loud, charismatic, and unafraid to share their most precious gems with the world. This full moon wants us to get in touch with the gems inside each of us—the aha moment, the light bulb, the idea that changes how we show up. That’s what the Ace of Thunder (Swords) invites us to explore.

When inspiration calls, will you accept the mission? Will you choose to shed whatever holds you back from embracing the gifts and talents you have to offer as medicine for the world? Listen deep for all the hints and glimmers that point you in the right direction.

Two Major Arcana cards show up to help us in our mission. The Hermit asks that we devote our sacred alone time to going down the rabbit hole on our most expansive and life-affirming projects, even if that means getting to know who you are on a whole new level. Commit to your dreams like it is a divine assignment from the universe.

The Unseen—a special card in The Gentle Tarot—assures that it is indeed a direct communication from our ancestors. Our beloved dead have seen the entire journey, and they know what role you were born to play. Allow them to assist you in being the brave, beautiful soul you were always meant to be. No one can make it happen like you can make it happen.

May we each offer our unique spark in service of the whole. May we trust that our contributions are worth the effort. May every cosmic leap within us propel the collective towards a brighter tomorrow.

Happy Imbolc, witches 💚🔥✨

February 1 is the Celtic-Pagan holiday marking the halfway point between winter and spring. It is the initial spark of light returning, a time of renewal and rebirth, when our ancestors lit candles or danced around bonfires to protect the land, livestock, and each other.

The festival honors Brigid, goddess of fire, poetry, healing, smithcraft, creativity, and inspiration. Many stories talk about her radical commitment to defying oppressive systems and championing the rights of marginalized people. Like the snake and fire symbolism with which Brigid is associated, this can be a powerful day to invoke transformation, name what we want to shed, and align our individual spark with the desire to create and channel hope. We may choose to celebrate today by lighting candles, tending to our hearth, and honoring the potency of the dark as a necessary gestation period as we prepare for the return of the light.

In all the ways that we are called to show up in solidarity and support right now, may we remember that Spirit is always with us. May we reignite our rituals and traditions in service of the future we are creating together. May we always know, deep in our bones, that we are held beyond what our eyes can see, and that we are never alone in our journey towards a more loving and peaceful existence.

Had my first virtual session of the new year with a client yesterday, and it felt so good to be back. I am endlessly inspired by the beautiful souls I get to work with from all over the world. Whether we’re connecting with messages from Spirit through the cards, diving into the purpose and passion unlocked in a birth chart, or surrendering to the peace and relaxation of reiki, every single session is so special. Thank you for another year of honoring me with the opportunity to serve this community, both near and far.
