Aquarian energy abounds! And, Pluto is at the center of it all. Recently, Pluto changed signs, going from Capricorn to Aquarius. This has really stirred up the energy for so many. There’s a new vibe in the air, as we’ve entered a new era. This is what you may notice, while you’re trying to catch up with the energy: A rapid unfolding of awareness of what’s not resonating – your job, relationship, beliefs, people and previous commitments. You may already know what it is you may not be able to sustain. A need to break free from old approaches – or a need to release yourself from stagnancy and s ..read more

Clutter, aging, and energy are all connected! As you get older, the things in your home get older. The older the unused and unloved items you have in your home, the more they reduce your energy stores, leaving you with less energy to operate with. The less energy you have, the older you feel. We are attached to everything in our environment—both seen and unseen—and our environment can either “give” us energy or “drain” us. Our environment is always a reflection of our inner state, and it’s our inner state that influences our success in life. As we near the end of 2023, commit to spending a fe ..read more

Our relationships with others often reflect the health of our relationship with ourselves. If you’re someone who enjoys your own company, you set a high standard for the relationships you allow into your life. A loving relationship with yourself means you’re less inclined to settle for partners who don’t treat you with equal respect and kindness. Conversely, if you’re unhappy with yourself, you might tolerate subpar relationships because, occasionally, they may make you feel better about yourself than when you are alone. I hear many people lament, “Why am I being treated this way?” The answer ..read more

JOMO: The Joy of Missing Out (noun). Feeling content with disconnecting as a form of self-care. I recommend spending time alone regularly. It’s a time for you to be and do as you please without the pressures and judgments that others may impose. Time alone allows you to decompress, daydream, and let your mind wander. This is vital to your well-being and happiness! There are so many benefits to focusing on yourself: 1. You develop a better understanding of what’s important to you. 2. You more easily come up with solutions to your challenges. 3. You can relax, free from the subtle judgement of ..read more

You’ll feel better if you think of closed doors as helping you to move away from people, places, routines, and habits not meant for you, anymore. What if encountering a road block saves you from continuing on, or moving in a direction that is wrong for you? I know it’s not easy, but these challenges you are going through will one day be a memory, and hopefully, you will be able to look back and understand the profound wisdom of the Universe. Let go and trust that everything you are experiencing is in divine order ..read more

At the deepest core of every human being is one sole desire. We want to be loved, valued, and appreciated for who we are. We don’t want to be loved conditionally. We don’t want be valued only for what we do, nor be be told how we should be. We want to be seen for the beautiful and unique being that we are. We want to be supported by others in a way that fuels our soul and illuminates our spirit.⁠ ⁠ How many times have you said you love someone or think you love someone, but also secretly or verbally express that they not be so “this” or they do more of “that”? It’s easy to put subtle conditio ..read more

Some of the October Planetary Themes After September’s energy of so many planets in retrograde, October is more of a month of pivots, surprises, and shifts.

By the end of the month, we will be in the “eclipse window,” which is a two-week period between two eclipses, bringing a portal of more chaotic energy. It will be an energetically full month, so it’s important to stay mindful and grounded. There’s more, but I’ll share the other themes a ..read more
