The ground has shifted beneath us.

We can look at the world events for the last couple of weeks, and indeed the last couple of years, and see that there has been this destabilising effect within the collective energies on our world.

Part of us might feel very frightened or anxious. W...

We are not separate from this world. Not a single one of us, no matter where on any spectrum of any politics, religion, race, you may happen to land. And I think a lot of us know that. But knowing it and actually doing something about it are two very different things.

There is a sorting happening right now in the world, and no, I do not mean some kind of second coming. I mean something that began gradually and now is more apparent with the rise of the cost of living. Some businesses did not s...

We are trained from an early age to believe that “too much” is bad. It is communicated to us in all sorts of subtle ways that having too much of anything is a problem.

But what does too much actually mean? It doesn’t necessarily mean that you are greedy if you want too much, or that you are inappropriate or overwhelming if you are told that you are being too much, or if you feel like your energy is too much for people.

But the Solstice is a pause point. My ancestors celebrated this as a returning of longer days, a celebration of return of the sunshine and the promise of a new and perhaps easier year. But the Solstice is the pause, and there is no hurrying the new...

We’ve all been changed by 2025. Our world has changed. A lot of people have been propelled into profoundly life-altering circumstances, and even those who’ve emerged relatively unscathed aren’t untouched. Our collective nervous systems are carrying more stress than even the Covid years, and so far 2026 doesn’t exactly present itself as a year of ease.
