I was sitting on my cushion one morning and an image popped into my head. It was an old version of me. A very old version of me. Sitting reclined on a big green chair saying “I wish I had worried less…”

As we approach Samhain, it is said that the veil between the living world and the spirit world thins. It is a time to connect with those no longer here with us on earth as well as our ancestors whose names have been forgotten…

The Queen of Swords is such a misunderstood Queen. She rules with logic, and while her emotions are always present, she understands that sometimes we need to make decisions from our head. How can you identify a Queen of Swords in your world and what intuitive gifts does she have?

As the energy courses down your body notice if you can feel any sensations just below your spine. This energy center is known as our root, and where we store our feelings around safety and security. Bring your attention to the base of your spine for a moment…

At its core, we can correlate the Seven of Wands with protection. Protection from what you ask?

Pause. Wait. Stop. Yellow Light. Hang on. For most of us, myself included, pausing can feel hard.I see the Hanged One as being a helper in preparing us for the moment of Death/Rebirth…

Who is the Queen of Cups anyway and how does she relate to early summer astrologically?

My favorite time for this is right before bed as I am already laying down and I find the process to be incredibly relaxing. You may lay down or find a comfortable seated position with your back straight. Rub your palms together to create some heat between them (approximately 10 seconds)

While the Vipassana retreat gave some temporary relief in the moment, it didn’t alleviate this feeling from me like I hoped it would. It was the first time I said to myself, “Why are we all living? What's the point?” I was not suicidal but I thought “What was the purpose behind all of this?”

You now created your first solstice Sun water! This water is now infused with a “living” fiery and healing energy. You can use it in a few ways whenever you feel you could benefit from an energetic boost.

The 5 of Cups may be the ultimate Buddist practice of non-attachment. When we take something we once held dear and open our hands to say “You are no longer mine”, we practice the act of letting go. Acknowledging that this experience was on loan for a time . . .

When I first started to read Tarot I came across the term “pathworking” . It means to place yourself inside of the card to explore its textures, feelings, sounds and depths. As an avid meditator and life long lover of fiction…

As we’ve entered the season of Samhain, continuing to work with ancestors is what's in the cards 🙂

New Moons hold the promise of a fresh start, planting seeds and manifestation. On the other hand, a solar eclipse travels into the darker parts of our subconscious to ask what is ready to be …

Full Moons are a time to release and let go. Something may have benefitted us in the past but no longer feels right or aligned with who we are becoming. We feel lighter, but possibly also drained …

As we approach the last third of August and the Sun traverses its way into the mutable and adaptable sign of Virgo, it felt right to express some gratitude for this fiery placement.

Bad luck, power play and lost in translation….. we cover it all!
