🦁✨ The Lions Gate Portal is open… can you feel it? ✨🌠

Every year on August 8th, a powerful cosmic alignment occurs — known as the Lions Gate Portal.

🌌 The star Sirius (often called our “spiritual sun”) rises and aligns with Earth and Orion’s Belt, creating an energetic gateway that supports:

Spiritual growth

Heart healing

Clarity and intuition

And powerful manifestation

You don’t need to “do” anything fancy to tap into this energy.
You just need to be present, open, and a little bit curious.

✨ If you're just starting on your spiritual path, here’s how to connect with today’s energy:

🧘‍♀️ Pause + breathe. Take a few quiet minutes to sit still. Place your hand on your heart. Ask: What am I ready to release? What am I ready to welcome in?

📝 Write it down. Grab a journal or a scrap of paper. Let your thoughts flow. Set one intention for the next chapter of your life — even if it’s simply “I want to feel more like myself again.”

💎 Hold a crystal (if you have one). No pressure! But if you’re drawn to stones like clear quartz, amethyst, or citrine, keep one nearby while you reflect or rest.

🌞 Step into sunlight or starlight. Nature is your portal too. Take a walk, feel the wind, look at the sky — reconnect with the bigger picture.

💫 Repeat this to yourself: "I am open to receiving. I am safe to grow. I trust the timing of my path."

You don’t have to be “fully healed” or deeply spiritual to feel what’s available today.
You just have to be you. Curious. Willing. Awake to the magic in the moment.

The Lions Gate is open.
And something beautiful may be opening in you, too. 🌿🕊️

Wolf Moon 2024. 🐺

UK time you will see the moon at full brightness around 5.54pm

Peaking in the sign of fiery Leo, this year's wolf moon brings strong themes of self-love and self-validation. It is a time of boldness, playfulness, creativity, and self-expression. Spiritually, the January 2024 wolf moon pushes you to live deeper in your truth, giving you the courage to try new things and step outside your comfort zone as you prepare to embark on a new 12-month journey.

According to many astrologers, a Wolf Moon can be an emotional time, when several astrological cycles are culminating all at once which can mean you aren't able to communicate or express yourself fully. Some believe that the eclipse component of a Wolf Moon might lead to tensions in your relationships, arguments and misunderstandings. So, if you're feeling a little wound up this week, you can blame the night sky.

How to make the most of the Wolf Moon energy?

🌝 Journaling using the prompt ‘I am ready to show the world …’
🌝 Getting outside and moon bathing (charge your crystals while you’re at
it!)
🌝 Writing down everything you wish to let go of and burning the paper to ash.
🌝 Lighting a candle and making a wish for your future self

. February New Moon in Pisces ♓

As the last sign, this season signals the end of a winter season and the beginning of the spring season. This new moon is great for new beginnings and fresh starts, So think about what you want to refresh, whether that's old goals that you're still working on, new dreams, or relationships that maybe need some new energy given to them.
And speaking of new energy, keep in mind that the day of the new moon, the sun, moon, and Neptune will all be in Pisces, amping up our spiritual subconsciouses and making us all feel a bit more emotionally attune. (Gotta love that watery Pisces energy!)

Plus, Venus has been in Pisces for the past few weeks, and the day of the new moon, it will be moving into Aries, the very first sign of the zodiac. Aries' influence makes this new moon a great time for planting seeds in your relationships as we're about to experience a breath of fresh air on the relationship front.

Pisces brings a deep healing energy wherever it goes and especially in dreamtime – this week you can expect to receive spiritual healing in your dreams, emotions, even through your visions and through prayer.

Pisces energy is compassionate, soft and kind and connected to the Greek goddess Aphrodite energy. Enjoy the quiet time now and nurture yourself with the deepest most proud love you can give yourself. Tune into the Piscean divine love this week and let it nourish you. ♡

Want to harness the magic of the moon but not sure where to start?

Well, the wolf moon is in the sign of cancer - So what better start than a nice cleansing bath. Get your candles, bath salts and calming music and just take some time to think of your intentions for the year ahead. Where do you want to focus your energy?

Identify the challenges that stand between you and your goals (how will you achieve your goals?)

Write a list of everything you wish to let go of - What are we leaving in 2022? Self doubt? Being our own biggest critic? These are not the energies you want in 2023!

Journal - January is the perfect time to develop a new habit and journaling is a perfect way to get our messy thoughts out and written down.

05/01/2023

Welcome to the first full moon of 2023 - January's Wolf Moon will be at it fullest at 11.08pm (GMT) on Friday 6/1/2023

The Wolf Moon is named after howling, hungry wolves that make themselves known near human settlements, usually around the month of January. Wolves also howl to communicate with their pack and to protect their territory. It is thought that a Wolf Moon offers us greater opportunity for deep self-reflection.

According to many astrologers, a Wolf Moon can be an emotional time, when several astrological cycles are culminating all at once which can mean you aren't able to communicate or express yourself fully. Some believe that the eclipse component of a Wolf Moon might lead to tensions in your relationships, arguments and misunderstandings. So, if you're feeling a little wound up this week, you can blame the night sky.

So another spiritual meaning of the January wolf moon is community. Think of who your communities are in different areas of your life. Who do you care about? What relationships do you wish to tend to?

Now is the perfect time to reconnect with your tribe. Pick up the phone, make some plans. "Howl" to your tribe.

✨Working with the Moon✨
🌛🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔🌜
🌑 -New Moon is our reset button. This is typically the time in the month where we plant seeds for new beginnings. We allow our hearts and intuition to take lead and follow our first initial urge for a fresh start. This lunar phase is best utilized by coming up with new ideas or projects. Plant those new wishes (or seeds) in a journal, or simply say out loud what you desire to come to fruition during this next new moon cycle.

🌒 -Waxing Crescent is a phase when we activate that initial desire we came up with during the New Moon. Meaning, we start gathering information on how to make our wish come true. This is the time of the month for us to research and create a blueprint.

🌓 -First Quarter phase can sometimes be a time when the first of our challenges or roadblocks arise. Do I really want my wish to come true? How badly do I want it? How can I make adjustments to my initial plans? How can I tweak things so that they run smoother? Take physical action toward your wish/goal during this phase. (Today, July 6th is the first quarter phase.)

🌔 -Waxing Gibbous is a time to perfect your wish. Clear and remove all issues, bugs. Keep your New Moon wish in the forefront of your mind. Be determined to achieve this goal. You’re so close now. Prepare yourself for harvest. Get yourself ready to embrace abundance.

🌕 -Full moon a time of pure unbridled power. Rejuvenation. Illumination. Fruition. Completion. The final stage of your manifestation. A time for you to celebrate all the hard work and sacrifices you just put forth to make this goal a reality.

🌖 -Waning Gibbous is a phase to hold gratitude for your wish and for where you are on your journey. Spend time thanking the Universe/Cosmos/Divinity/etc. and/or make an offering of some kind.

🌗 -Last Quarter is a time to cleanse and detox. It’s time to begin making room for the next new moon cycle and all that it has to offer. Let go of everything that didn’t feel right or go according to plan so far this month.

🌘 -Waning Crescent is when we slow down completely and rest. This is when we should incubate. Deep introspection and silence are in order. Surrender to the flow

Had the best day at the family day on camp - Our first stall.

Thank you to everybody who came along to have a nosey and add to your own crystal collections 💚✨

Can't wait to see you all again at the next event - in the meantime I'm going to get my online shop sorted on My Cottage Industry to add stock too in between these events as we have moved away from Etsy now.

Today we have a very special New Moon in Ta**us ♉️

Just as we have Blue Moons (a second full moon in a month) we also have Black Moons which is the second New Moon in a month🌙

The energy of this black moon is also happening when there is a partial solar eclipse during the daylight hours!
Pluto is also going into retrograde and a Venus/ Jupiter conjunction in Pisces ♓️.

There is a lot of chaotic energy around us at the moment!! We may feel overwhelmed and like things are about to burst. Don’t worry and don’t forget you are in control of this!! It is definitely a time to sit with yourself and look inward to what is being stirred up during this time. 🧘‍♀️

Channel this energy into bringing your true self out and empower her!! 💚✨

That thing you have been wanting to buy for yourself, Treat yourself!! 🥁
The hobby you want to take up - Try it! 🛼
The adventure you want to go on, Book It!!! 🏕️

I will be using this energy to meditate in the garden with a cup of ceremonial cacao and get myself back on my spiritual path I have been neglecting recently. ✨

How will you harness this energy?

✨ 🌙 New Moon, New Me, New Energy🌙✨
