Well here we are and it's exactly a year since the shop opened its doors. To mark the occasion we had a small sale last week with some bubbles and delicious home-made cake made our resident Angel and healer, Loretta McCabe. Looking back over the last year I have learnt so much about making a… Continue reading The First Solar Return of RSL
After an incredible and lively party on Halloween, enjoyed by both people and energetic beings alike, we have focused on the themes of regeneration and renewal. Samhain, the pagan ritual from which we take most of our Halloween hullabaloo, denoted Summer's End and a time to honour the ancestors, reflect upon life and death and… Continue reading Wave Goodbye, Say Hello
Yesterday we transformed the shop space and today it was the turn of my blog. As everything else has unfolded so it unfolds that this virtual space becomes the home of the Collective. A new page has been written and added. Dream crystallised. Time for next phase. Always in humble gratitude to supporters here and… Continue reading Turning the page
Domestic chores today. Clothes have been strewn around our home and bowls have been piling up at the sink. In fact our place looks like my room c1991 when i was a messy student, clearly before my Moon in Virgo took hold and Saturn worked his magic. Quite a different day then than the last… Continue reading Dream come true
The Sun moved into Leo today. The sign of creative self-expression, of courage and of taking the centre stage. Seems fitting then that today I signed the lease on behalf of the newly incorporated Reason Season Lifetime Collective. Quite the astrological Go sign indeed. Also on the side of affirmations was following the Aquarian's recommendation… Continue reading Leaping into Leo

We have moved today from one amazing city to another. My favourite city in fact. Hamburg. This city has everything. Great cafes and bars, a beautiful lake spotted with places to buy delicious German food and Alsterwasser (Hamburg's version of Shandy), striking docks and beach clubs. Yes beach clubs, with sand, and an incredibly chilled… Continue reading So close
Am sure to those of you following this story that taking time out just before starting a shop seems a bit odd but I am putting it down to the Universe's quirky sense of timing. Because I am in Berlin. A place I've wanted to visit for a very long time and after a number… Continue reading And relax
Today was decision time. Although you could already guess what the decision was going to be. No spoiler alert needed here. Yes, of course it was yes. Could it have ever been anything else? We still did our due diligence, working it out the best we could. Costs, income, decoration, projections, requirements, risks... Not entirely… Continue reading But of course
