Welcome to Sunday Ritual.

Today we’re celebrating Beltane, which is celebrated on 1 November here in the Southern Hemisphere. It’s a celebration of life, abundance, fertility and the creative energy of nature as we move towards summer.

Beltane invites us to celebrate creation in all its forms - not just what we make, but what we dream, envision, nurture and bring into being.

So tonight, I’d like to invite you to give yourself some time for creative expression.

Perhaps you journal, paint, draw, write, bake, garden, dance or simply spend time in nature.

Let go of the need to produce something or get it perfect. Instead, allow yourself to play, explore and follow whatever inspires you.

As you do, consider:

✨What would I love to create?
✨What makes me feel alive?
✨What possibilities am I ready to explore?

If you can’t make the time tonight, then set an intention to give yourself 20–30 minutes sometime this week. Put it in your calendar and make that time just for you.

Give yourself permission to play, to express and to create simply for the joy of it.

Happy Beltane!

Save this simple Water Ritual for when you wish to cleanse your emotional body.

Find a body of water - a bath, a pool, the ocean or a simple bowl. 🌊

Lie back and float in the water or move your hand back and forth in the bowl.

Close you eyes and breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth … slowly and with intention.

Visualise water cleansing and clearing your emotional body washing away stagnant feelings, old wounds, sticky bits of debris that have clogged up your system.

Stay here for a while until you feel lighter.

Offer gratitude for the gift of healing water and your body’s emotional intelligence.

REPEAT THIS RITUAL as often as you need to.

The Sunday Ritual is live on YouTube.

I prepared this Sunday Ritual yesterday (2:44 pm AEDT on Sat 24 October) during the Venus Cazimi (kuh-ZEE-mee).

Cazimi means ‘in the heart of the Sun’. In astrology, it describes a planet meeting the Sun very closely. This particular Cazimi occured at approximately 0°45′ Scorpio, during Venus retrograde - and this particular event won’t happen again for another 150 years or so.

For our ritual this week, I thought it would be a very opportune time to bring illumination to, and consider, what we truly value, what brings our lives greater beauty and joy, and how we can honour what matters.

We will do this as a Venus journal reflection and 6 card reading using your own oracle or tarot cards, or you can use the reading that I draw as we go through each prompt.

So if you haven’t already, pause the recording and grab your card deck, journal and a pen.

For each of the 6 prompts draw a card and reflect on the card, then answer the journal prompt.

1. Remember: What do I truly value?

2. Recognise: What brings me joy?

3. Rediscover: Where is beauty already present in my life?

4. Realign: What small change would align my day to day life more closely to what I value?

5. Receive: How can I remain open to receiving more love, beauty and joy from others in my life?

6. Reaffirm: From my reflection, what is my intention for the week ahead?

Thank you for joining me for the Sunday Ritual and my intention for this community this week is that you recognise what is beautiful in your lives, honour what matters to you, and consciously make space for more love, joy and meaning.

Removing Obstacles - Allowing Ease & Flow

Today’s Sunday Ritual is going to be very simple. We’re going to focus on a small step to take to remove an obstacle we have been encountering in our lives.

The obstacle itself might feel very large or heavy, but our aim today is not to remove the obstacle fully.

Instead, we’re simply looking for a little ease from its restriction; a little space from its constriction; and a little bit of movement or flow to allow release.

I’ve been working with a beautiful Reiki healing session with Reiki with Rachael, which inspired today’s ritual. I’ll add the activation I’ve been using below in case you are interested.

We’ll begin by drawing one card - from your own deck, or you can use the card I draw for the collective.

You don’t need to do any journalling, although you are welcome to afterwards if you desire. We’ll simply use the guidance from the card as a focus for our Reiki meditation.

During the meditation, we’ll bring to mind an obstacle - something that has been a heavy burden, or perhaps just a nagging bump on our path.

Something that has been causing restriction or tension, worry or overthinking. Something that has been feeling heavy or hopeless.

We’ll notice where this shows up in the body and invite just a little bit of ease into that space.

If the obstacle feels heavy like a stone or rock, we’ll visualise energy like water flowing over and around the rock - eroding the edges, smoothing it down and making it smaller and smaller.

We are not trying to remove the rock by force.
