Astrology forecast 🌠

July 25 | Welcoming in stable energy…

Mercury moves in Virgo

In terms of communication, business, travel, and career - things will feel much lighter (and make a lot more sense, too!) That’s because Mercury feels comfortable in its home sign of Virgo. Planning, a tenacious work ethic, and direct communication come naturally to Mercury Virgos. Conversations will be more direct and flow with a lot more ease.

With this refreshing transit, you’ll feel less pressure on your sense of creativity and find it easier to separate yourself from your work. If you’ve been feeling conflicted about your relationship with your output, that’ll lighten up too. That’s not to say that all of your work or travel-related stress will magically disappear (though that would be nice) but you’ll be able to plan with determination and speed. Be on the lookout for feelings of longing toward perfectionism. Virgo tends to strive for excellence, and usually, anything below that feels like an utter failure. While it’s useful to reach for the stars, have some grace for yourself if you find yourself on the Moon instead.

If you need some assistance with these fleeting feelings of perfectionism, examine your boundaries and your hidden strengths. It might feel counter-intuitive to tell your director that you can’t take on more tasks with your already overloaded schedule - but you need to carve out time to be intentional, especially around your work. Focus on strengthing your ability to say no when you need to. Find a routine that works for you, and if you have to, schedule time for rest. This transit can make you feel like you need to be doing something 24/7, but it’s important to prioritize your ability to recharge. Without taking a break, burnout is inevitable.

Find the balance between following your dreams and your sense of peace.

Weekly favs 💚

On repeat 🎵 Not a song, but I’ve been diving into the audiobook of “The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma”. I feel like everyone should read this book once in their lives! The insight, research, and information is unmatched.

On my nightstand 📚 I’m still reading Joe Dispenza’s “Becoming Supernatural” and I’m loving it so far. It normally doesn’t take me this long to finish a book, but we’ve had family in and out of town for a few weeks now. I’m looking forward to learning some more meditation techniques for my personal toolbelt, as well as work with clients. If you’re a bookworm too, let’s connect on Goodreads!

ICYMI 🗞️

Save on a tarot or oracle card reading.

Take advantage of 24% off a 30-minute tarot or oracle card reading from now until the last day of July. My favorite method for assisting my clients and myself in discovering new brain patterns in our daily work is to use tarot to identify repetitive patterns that either require identification or modification! It provides a dynamic and expansive means of communication with both the outside world and with oneself.

These are one-on-one virtual sessions that are really distinctive and unique! Combining the intuitive instruction from the cards with my star knowledge from the minute we begin our consultation results in a delicious download that provides you with strategies to do to move toward alignment!

In-person events coming soon!

If you’ve missed the sound guided meditations on our mini-homestead from last year - they’re making a return! We’re finishing up some summer travel and getting the property ready for guests! We can’t wait to host events here again!

Keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram for more news! For those of you who didn’t get to attend last year; we host incredible donation-based sound immersion meditation with crystal sound bowls and guided voice! It’s truly an experience like no other, and doesn’t require any background in meditation to enjoy! Just sit back, sink into the sounds, and be drifted away!

What’s in my cup ☕

Blue lotus dreams

I’m a long-time friend of Blue Lotus, specifically for dream recall and lucid dreaming. 2020 through 2021 I was infusing it often, and for some reason, I fell off. Likely because my dreams were too active, and I wasn’t getting rest anymore - which has happened throughout my life. Blue lotus tea is an herbal tea made from the blue lotus flower, also known as Nymphaea caerulea or the Egyptian lotus. This flower has been used for thousands of years in traditional medicine and religious rituals, particularly in ancient Egypt.

I attended a meditation a while back, and we collectively used this herb before going into a deep meditative state. I forgot how much I enjoy Blue Lotus, and it’s something that’s going back into my normal rotation. I’ve been getting the ping to dive into my dreams again, and a simple Blue Lotus tea infusion makes it easy.

You can use blue lotus as a plant ally for a multitude of reasons:

  • Relaxation: It is known for its calming and relaxing effects, helping to reduce anxiety and stress.

  • Mild Euphoria: Some users report mild euphoria and a sense of well-being.

  • Aphrodisiac: Historically, blue lotus has been considered an aphrodisiac.

  • Sleep Aid: It can also promote better sleep due to its sedative properties.

Some folks use it as a light psycoactive, since this flower contains apomorphine and nuciferine, which contribute to some folks having dreams, visions, or connecting with their intuition. Apomorphine acts as a dopamine agonist, and nuciferine has calming effects. I find it most useful at night, or during meditations
