Finding my voice: Moving through fear at the lunar eclipse
Life wasted no time in putting what I’d written on my business page to the test. On the day of the lunar eclipse, I faced my greatest fear in finding my voice: standing before a room of people, not hidden behind a character, but simply as myself, sharing a story I had written.
Since childhood, I’ve loved acting. On stage, I could be seen and heard; but always as someone else. Every word belonged to the playwright. Every gesture was rehearsed. I knew exactly what to say, when to say it, and how it would land. It felt safe. I never had to reveal me.
Spiritual guidance August/September 2025: Free your emotions to let love flow
Here’s my spiritual guidance August/September 2025, covering the lunar month beginning with the Virgo new moon on August 23rd at 7.07am (UK) through to September 21st. Every new lunar month I draw one card from the Thoth Tarot to spark intuitive insight about the key energy to navigate by during the coming four weeks. I then take a quick look at the astrology.
This month’s minor arcana card tells us the powerful spiritual and transformational currents of recent months haven’t eased; they’re still flowing strong. The question now is: how will you meet them? The answer lies in embodying the qualities of the Princess of Cups.

After the high-octane swirl of June and July, chaotic on the surface but flowing with deep currents of divine guidance, we arrive here. At the threshold of profound change.
Soulful activism: The courage to feel it all
Stillness can feel unbearable. Facing what we’re actually feeling or hearing in the moment feels like too much. But when we avoid it, we miss the truth waiting just beneath the surface – the pain, the sorrow, the fear of uncertainty. And yet, that’s exactly where healing, and soulful activism, begins.
So much of today’s human suffering stems from our resistance to sitting with discomfort. You can see it everywhere in the constant push toward the next high, the next achievement, the next distraction. It shows up in the rage and vicious backlash when someone’s beliefs are questioned or contradicted.
In 2016, these same questions were stirring in me and I gave them voice in a poem inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet.

Following on from The Magus of last month, I’ve drawn another major arcana card – The Tower. It’s a potent sign of transformation and rebirth, and what I speak of here may well continue to pulse through the next six months, thanks to the recent potent Summer Solstice on June 21st.
