Guidance for March/April 2023: It’s all about give and take

Posted on Mar 18, 2023 in Spiritual living, Tarot, Uncategorized

Here’s my guidance for March/April 2023, covering the month beginning with the new moon in Aries on March 21st (in the UK). The Thoth Tarot suggests we engage with the energy of the Six of Disks this lunar month. The subtitle is immediately uplifting, indicating successful new developments and feelings of abundance, enjoyment and growth. I find it so interesting that with the Spring Equinox only yesterday reminding us of balance, so does this card. It suggests that these practical, positive results come about through aligning forces in harmony and reciprocity, both spiritual and material.

The dance of equilibrium; living a balanced life

Posted on Mar 1, 2023 in Spiritual living, Tarot, Uncategorized

It’s often talked about fairly glibly as a good thing, but how do you go about living a balanced life? A dear and wise friend, whom I respect deeply, recently called me a master of balance, which was very lovely to hear. She noticed that I always balanced the demands of intense professional work with “play” time just for myself. It reminded me of another conversation in which a fellow healer observed that I was better than any other therapist she knew at matching the healing and holding energy I give to others with attending to my own self-care.

Guidance for February 2023 – Power up and do it

Posted on Feb 18, 2023 in Spiritual living, Tarot, Uncategorized

Here’s my guidance for February 2023, including a one card Thoth Tarot reading and a brief overview of the month’s astrology. The Thoth Tarot presents us with the energy of the Two of Wands to work with this month, urging us to act with the full force of our enthusiasm and inspiration. This month gifts you with clarity on what you want and the courage to risk moving towards it. On a personal level, this means building total confidence in and acceptance of yourself so you can focus all your will on going for it. At this point, know that where you’ll end up doesn’t matter; now is just about deciding on and taking the first step. So whatever it is you’re fired up about, it’s time to do it.

Hanging back or worth the wait?

Although many of us have been isolated from family, friends, and the ability to socialise for over a year, now that the opportunities to venture out beyond our four walls or garden is available, there is a strange reluctance to do so. Many of my clients have said it’s been difficult for them to stay home (often alone) for extended periods of time, and yet now they don’t understand why they find the thought of going out and mixing with people unappealing and stressful. They’re more likely to not bother and just stay right where they are. I drew The Hanged Man Tarot card as a four week guidance card for a group I teach in yesterday, and it reminded me of this pattern I’d been noticing in myself and others.

Keeping it real – Reading for 2021

Posted on Jan 5, 2021 in Spiritual living, Tarot, Uncategorized

After a difficult 2020, the ramifications of which have spilled over with us into 2021, the key to navigating this new year lies in the realm of emotions, imagination, and dreams with the Five of Cups. As a five, this card is not comfortable or cosy because it disturbs the stability of the previous number four, shoving you out of your comfort zone and into the inevitability of change. The only thing that doesn’t change is change right?

As the subtitle suggests, when you lose the comfort and pleasure brought by anything you love, whether that’s people, jobs, relationships, ways of life, or spiritual beliefs, you can be overwhelmed by loss and disappointment.
