Til The Sun Returns…
Posting this photo as a reminder to myself of all the gorgeous springtime sunshine we enjoyed here in Scotland only a few days ago. Alas, it was short-lived. This week has seen gale-strength winds, dropping temperatures, torrential squally rain and snow(!). While wrapping up in a cold blanket and snuggling in with a large hot mug of tea, I am resting in the knowledge that the sun will return. It’ll be back soon. I just know it. In the meantime, I’m going to be prepping my Full Moon Love Letter which goes out this Friday. It’s going to be so juicy as it will contain an opportunity to work with…

Celebrate Your Soul Sisters!
Look what I just received in the mail! My beautiful friend and soul sister Julie Gibbons sent it to me, and when I thanked her, she told me that she’d received it from Jackie Walker, a friend and soul sister to us both. Knowing that this book has passed through the hands, hearts and minds of 2 women that mean the world to me feels exceptionally profound. And it struck me that, unlike when I was much younger when I had just the one best friend, I now have the most amazing circle of soul sisters. The difference between a best friend and a soul sister? Unconditional support and consistent…

Teatime – A Poem
Sit down and have a cup of tea with me. Your choice. Earl Grey, Peppermint, Lemon & Ginger, Chai, Tetley…. I’ll be mother. Milk? Sugar? Lemon? Now that we’re all settled, you with your tea and me with mine, let’s have a chat. I’ll tell you my dreams, my fears, my desires, my stories. And you’ll tell me yours. We’ll laugh. We’ll shed the occasional tear. We’ll be each other’s cheerleader, confidant, co-pilot. We’ll cut through the bullshit, the fog and the nostalgic ties that bind us to the too small versions of ourselves. We’ll even share a sliver of silence or two, unspoken crumbs carelessly left upon our saucers.…

The Springtime Wisdom of the Goddess
This post was originally published as a part of Amy Oscar‘s Spring Wisdom Series, which you can download in its entirety as an ebook here: Spring Wisdom Series. In a time before time existed, there was the great goddess. She was formed from the great swirling darkness and chaos, and gave birth to the heavens, to the planets & stars, to the earth & the seas, the jungles & grasslands, to the animals & the people. She held within her all aspects of femininity. She was as light as she was dark. She was as great as she was terrible. She gave life and took it away. She was compassionate and…

It’s Time to Give Your Gifts
This morning I checked in with the goddesses. I was in that blissful between place, moving between the stages of waking, limbs languid, eyelids heavy, hair gently pillowing my face. Almost without thinking, I send my roots reaching far below me to connect with my core crystal – that soul anchor which gives me grounding and stability. And then I picture an angel pouring white sparkling light down through my crown chakra. It filters all down my body’s energy centres before I push it gently out to form a bubble around my whole being. From this place of grounded, open, protected consciousness I travel along a well worn path to…
