Hello July

Hello July!

I hope that this new month finds you well and blessed in ways that stir deep joy within.

I’ve felt a sense coming full circle this full moon. June was a month of wild adventure, spontaneity and living from a place of openness. After a few weeks of doing so during our travels to England and Wales, I’ve come back with my heart bursting at the seams.

There is so much to be grateful for – New experiences, fun times and the opportunity to explore different lands.

But mostly, I’m thankful for the meaningful connections made with people – friends both old and new, and family, especially family. My husband’s family live abroad. As a result we don’t get to be with them much. So, having that family time and meeting quite a few of my in-laws for the first time was really special. To this day, I’m so blown away by the amount of love I felt, the acceptance I received from all of them and the treasured memories we’ve had the opportunity to create.

My experiences on this trip reminded me of something else too. That is the power of keeping an open heart when connecting with people. Too many people live in lonely worlds where their relations with others may feel fleeting and empty of meaning. You never know how you could touch someone just by reaching out and taking an interest in their life. You also never know how they may move you too when you allow room for real connections to form.

Now, back in the reality of my life and still beaming with the enriching and transformative touch of my holiday, I’m finding ways to integrate this residual essence into the experiences I create moving forward.

Something tells me July will be just as beautiful a month. I am hopeful and look forward to what unfolds along the way.

How about you?

Adventures of the Sagittarius Moon

May Grandmother Moon shine her silver rays on you today.

I’ve always known Sagittarius to be a sign of fiery passion, adventure and travel. That considered, it seems fitting that as the full moon in Sagittarius begins to rise across the night sky this evening, I’ll be taking off on a plane to London. I’ll be way for the month of June, visiting family in England, going to a wedding in Wales and touring the UK where I can.

Needless to say, my posts here will be few to non-existent for the next month. I hope to use this time to disconnect from the online world a bit and to explore and gather new soul and earth inspired stories and lessons in the wild world.

Until the next post, may the Goddess and the soothing energy of the Earth continue to bring beautiful and healing vibrations into your life.

Morning Journalling

Early bird. Night owl. We all have our preferences.

What are yours?

Do you dance barefoot under the stars enchanted my Mother Night’s mystery?

Or do you wake up with the first rays of the quiet rising sun and listen to the birds rejoice as colour returns to the world?

As you may know, I love am an early riser. I love the stillness and golden magic of day when it’s slowly waking up. Mornings are when I meditate, journal, drink tea and write.

So I’m honoured to participate in Monica Sabolla Gruppo’s Everyday Journals interview series where I discuss my morning journaling ritual and how it feeds into my life and my writing.
