I visited my shop today. On the etheric plane. Today was the first day of the year I've spent completely on my own. At first I was out of the rhythm of it after having my other half with me, and the company of other special souls, for the last two weeks. I woke up,… Continue reading Soft tingles, warm whispers
Today has been booked in for a dossing day or duvet day for a slightly more flattering term. In reverence to my healing space I managed a little bit of housework but mainly today has been about feeling safe and comfortable in my retreat. I've been thinking today about an area of astrology which is… Continue reading IC Me
As I think about what to write today the only phrase that comes to mind is "ravages of excess" otherwise known as Boxing Day in the UK. I am now wondering who said it first as according to the Google it appears to be a common phrase used by journalists and health care professionals, mainly… Continue reading Excess philosophy
Last night, just before pressing publish, my solstice celebrations began. I meditated and connected to the energies of the New Moon and Sun and set my intention for the weeks if not months ahead. I also worked with a piece of Labradorite, my star child crystal. It was one of the first crystals I bought,… Continue reading Labradorite, Light
Last day of work for a while today. Resting and revelling ahead. As its Frigg's day it's time for a bit of poetry appreciation again. And another William Blake poem. This particular one has come up a number of times this week and is useful for both my HR work and also personal development, mainly… Continue reading Poetic observations

Emulating Christmas, Geordie style at the weekend had switched on the "Switch off" programme in my brain and it had decided that given the recent events involving crackers, opening presents, spending time with family followed by more time off meant that its only work now was… Continue reading Not Christmas yet
I drew the above mandala after a meditation on 11.11.11. I saw 21 people in a circle connected through strands of light. They were sending and receiving love and energy to each other. Within the 21, 3 groups of 7. It felt a powerful message then and still is very much with me today. And… Continue reading Connection mandala
I am overflowing with the excitement of possibilities today. Full on babbling brook. A quick look at my chart and I can see a key couple of planets are actively encouraging my outpouring. Transit Venus is almost exactly conjunct my natal Mars, my chart ruler, and their creative collaboration is well and truly stoking the… Continue reading A date with Venus
Just home from my long weekend with my parents up in Geordieland. (North-East England for uninitiated) Great, or rather calculated, timing on the recharging of my batteries as when I go back to my family home I find that connecting to the land where I was born gives me a boost of physical and spiritual… Continue reading Back doon tuh earth…man
"I want to work in a way that I love that produces love. I want to support people who need help and help others to find whatever they need to want to help others. I want to have a space where people can come and spend time in a calm, relaxing and safe space to… Continue reading What dreams may come
