Weekly Energetic Weather: Sept 8th-14th
Overall Themes
Alright, well, we are deep in it right now.
The greatest longing coming forward is enhanced clarity, or if you’ve received your full clarity, then action around this newfound clarity. You either got a glimpse of where you need to go, but don’t fully know your next steps or you’re all packed and ready to leave, but have no car. Oh the tension. It’s showing up in those areas that you thought (or maybe just hoped) were all said and done, but actually have some lingering details or fine print calling for your attention. It may come forward in mental chatter, physical tension, and/or emotional waves.
Sharpening the filter on your own thoughts and those of others speaking into your life will keep you present. Your mind will be full of thoughts that may or may not be true. Keep them in the possibility zone instead of concrete reality. I love using Byron Katie’s classic question - is it really true? - in these moments.
Your body may be tenser, inviting you to slow down and weave in ways to melt any internal rigidity. Honor your body’s requests. Trust it as the ultimate authority.
Watch your heart. Keep it close and focused on you right now. Your heart and nervous system could, in one moment, feel like it’s drowning in intense waves of feeling, and then in the blink of a few hours, you could be living in the high of dissociative bliss. You’re not crazy. This is the energy. This is all for your growth.
Learning to live in tension is the core of so much of my own personal journey. To be able to find my state of complete presence amidst anything that comes my way, whether it be unresolved connections, incomplete dreams, unanswered questions, potent pressure, consuming critique, uncertain outcomes, whatever it may be! Remaining the captain and editor of my thoughts, the protector of my tender heart, and the inhabitant of my entire body through it all – this is my greatest work. How about you?
This week is all about facing our own unique sense of tension. Feeling it. Naming it. Sitting next to it. And letting it be.
Answers and action are not going to come through force. They will arrive when you aren’t looking, when there is space, when it is the right, perfect, and divinely-oriented moment. That may happen this week or in a month… or three or twelve or more down the road. I’ve found that full understanding is rarely given in the moment, but the knowledge, wisdom, and support required to move forward… it can and will come. You are not here to just continue as you are. You are here to uncover the gift of who God made you to be, and that is a life-long unwrapping. Settling into this week with the perspective that this is just one tiny piece of your gigantic life puzzle can start to soften the intensity. Loosening your grip on what must be done or must be had or must be known will allow you to experience what you want sooner.
Now, for my “just-try-harder” readers – I see you – this doesn’t mean you can force the not-forcing-approach. I love how we do this… “oh, okay, Jess, I’ll just stop trying and work really hard to let go!” It’s the same coin, different side. True release is very very close to the feeling of giving up, but I would describe it more as a deeper knowing that life’s moving with or without you, that you’re going to be okay, and a really grounded in-your-body-sense that you’ve done all you can. If like me, you rarely feel like you’ve done enough, then you have to take this at like a 75-80% satisfaction with effort given. I know you can always think of something more to do or say or be. Let that go too. If you’re struggling here, simply speak this prayer: “I surrender to how this needs to come about. If there is anything I am blind to or any way that I am not giving what’s needed on my end, show it to me in a way I cannot miss it.” Trust you will be called out if needed and then focus your mental, emotional, and spiritual energy on living in the present moment with deep awareness of all that’s good in your life, all that you’ve been given and gifted already. This is how you and I hold and stay in our seats, right next to our greatest tensions.
Let this week ride out before you make any strong conclusions. Stay agile and stay congruent with your truest self. If you don’t know what your true self is anymore, you all know I love the systems of ancient Astrology and Human Design for this. Your authentic self is clearly laid out, and these systems simply identify it. Your entire life is about you returning to this whole healthy self. I’m happy to call this out for you anytime. Single Sessions await you. Let’s dive into the moon schedule for your body’s needs this week!
Moon Schedule
September 8th - Moon Moves Into Aries
The head. If you have strong aries placements, you may experience headaches and sinus congestion or pressure. Slow down and use your toolkit to ease this tension. Magnesium is my first go-to, especially magnesium threonate because it passes the blood-brain barrier. Stay well hydrated and take multiple rests through out these next few days, naps or even just lay down for 5 minutes to ease that top pressure. This also can mean we will be hyper active in our minds and and possibly feeling impatient around any symptoms our body presents. I cannot say this enough, take a breath, sloooooow down, and give it 24 hours before you take any dramatic action.
September 10th - Moon Moves Into Taurus
Taurus is the ruler of your lower jaw, neck, ears, throat and thyroid… so massage that jawline and neck, my friends, you could be holding a lot of tension this week! Use my immune tonic and incorporate water gargling (60 seconds 2x daily), if your throat begins to act up or if you lose your voice. I love to gently tap over my thyroid to activate and focus the body’s attention on it. Similar to the first two days of this week, slow down and rest as much as you can. This month’s body flares are a bit extra due to the sun being in virgo, the ruler of the whole body. This is why it’s a classic month to get your annual or biannual cold! It’s a healthy reset :).
September 12th - Moon Moves Into Gemini
Hello lungs. Clearance of grief may come up towards the end of this week, as well as any mucous congestion. Get it up and out! Nebulize, tap your chest, move your body, clean your air, and cry it out. Gemini also controls the speech centers of your brain, so you may feel extra chatty and quick to speak ,or find yourself bumbling a bit more with words if you’re body is highlighting brain inflammation.
September 14th - Moon Moves Into Cancer
Sunday we land in the mothering energy of cancer and I recommend savoring it. Nurture yourself well with cozy food and drink. Take time to tune in and perhaps have a quiet day at home to feel all the feels in a safe space that you maaaay have pushed past this week... just sayin ;).
Your astrological map is a powerful tool to understand sources of chronic symptoms, health blocks, your body’s vulnerabilities and strengths, and the best preventative measures to stay strong, youthful, vibrant, and dis-ease free. I can introduce you to your map in my single session or use your astrology to dive very deep as a part of your Concierge Reset. Come see me!
Weekly Energetic Weather: Sept 2nd - 7th
Overall Themes
New energy, a return to what we may have felt or considered at the beginning of this year, and an overall sense of heightened possibility… this week holds a lot for us.
With back-to-school vibes coming in hot, there is a sense or really an unconscious want to find, create, and hold on to structure, but we are actually being called into flow, surrender, standing back and witnessing, instead of manhandling. The structure is being created for us. The next few weeks or really the rest of the month will bring in wave after wave of change. Some old and some new. It is not our job to step in or control, at all. Instead, we will stand in the sand and let the waves roll in around our feet and back out to the depths as they naturally do without our influence. We will simply experience it. People, work, ideas, and more will be rolling in and out of our lives. Our only work is to reflect on what it brings up in us, how does it all makes us react. What do we feel? What do we want to do? How do we want to respond? Remember the recent lesson about people being mirrors for us? Well now, we get to put our practice to the test. Everything that’s going to happen over the next month is for you. It’s teaching you by reflecting back to you the lessons you’re ready to integrate. The emotionally distant friend - how are you unavailable? The clingy partner - where are you grasping when it’s not needed? Attracting people that are judging you for your looks, job, etc - where are you moving through life with a more shallow worldview and not giving a chance for deeper understanding or value? Everything drawn into your life has something to show you, something to teach you, some way to grow you.
This week and the few after are also clearing the way for you to lean closer into who you are truly meant to be here in this lifetime. This is a profound moment. This whole year is monumental, but this is one of those big pushes that will flush out all that is getting stanky. October is going to feel GOOD, but only September is going to hose us down and flush our lives. Just let it happen.
Ideas or decisions or options that were presented to you in the beginning of this year may come back around for a second chance or even just because the timing is now right. You’re ready. You’re going to feel openness and possibility rising in you this week. Dreams you’ve had in the past suddenly feel doable. Go for it! Trust yourself and make the choice you know deep down is right this time around.
The next stage is an interesting one. Right after you make the choice and decidie to finally go for it, the self-limiting critic is going to come in hot… panic and self-doubt will creep in. It’s okay. This is an old protective mechanism that is being highlighted right now. You are being given the chance to grow beyond your own blocking pattern. Let yourself stay solid in your choice and release the fear this time. Trust your decision. Once you make a choice, you can and need to go all in to really truly see the complete potential of what you’re capable of being, accomplishing, and experiencing. This choice is most likely in an area you’ve always limited yourself or held yourself back in previously, so it’s time to unblock and let yourself fall. Yep, fall. Surrender. Float. Fly. You may be shocked at the unexpected and beautiful results laying at the bottom of the drop for you. All that your subconscious feared and avoided? Not even close to reality. If you do eat it, then wow, what a beautiful lesson in going all in and coming up the surface with a full complete experience. The clarity that comes from giving something your all and seeing it through to the end only to find that it’s not it, is HUGE. It will open the right door much faster than wallowing in the shallows, biting your nails, and making excuses, ever will. You will NOT DIE. Worst case scenario, you will recover and become a more beautiful, rich, and well-rounded ALIVE soul. Just DO IT.
The last note… the view will be hazy. You may only get your very next step placed in front of you, and nothing else, the rest will be covered in a great fog. I know… Hear me out. This is (in my humble opinion) the greatest affirmation that you are on track. If the way is clear-cut and obvious, it’s rarely ever truly YOUR path. It’s often simply the safe way that you’ve been promised will be best for you based on others’ experiences, personal fears, or their wants from you. If you feel a deep pull towards it, but the pathway and the end results are hidden… welcome to your authentic choice. I can say from personal experience, that you will be given what you need in the exact right moment. This energy is all about trust. Trusting yourself. Trusting the universal matrix God made. Trusting that your authentic and true way of moving through life is preeminently selected, purposefully provided, and profoundly protected. And so, with all this knowing wrapped around you, let go. Loosen your grip, relax your ribcage, soften your face, sink into your body, and allow yourself to move forward, one step at a time.
We’re all in this together. The more you follow your true path, the more those around you will be encouraged to do so as well, and the more we all do it, the more the world will be a place of beautiful souls traveling alongside each other, creating a genuine and powerful experience called life.
Thank you for your bravery. It fortifies and motivates my own. I am with you. Let’s do this!
Moon Schedule
September 2nd - Moon Moves Into Capricorn
Under the virgo sun, the capricorn moon is going to cerate a desire to return to healthy whole foods, full and complete BMs, and prioritizing sleep (even if it’s challenging with all this energy right now). Listen to this call and come home to the basics. Water your body like your favorite plant, eat often and well, choose foods that your body is craving - proteins, hydrating greens, fresh fruit, and get yourself into bed by 10 PM or sooner. Lastly, light a beeswax candle and let it be your only source of light once you’re in bed. This will initiate melatonin production and allow for easy entrance into sleep.
September 4th - Moon Moves Into Aquarius
Aquarius rules oxygen in the body - the great healer and mobilizer and revitalizer in the body. If you haven’t tried oxygen-related therapies these are the days to give it a whirl. If you’re familiar, these are the days to get the most out of it! Some of my favorite oxygen therapies include: breathwork, ozone insufflation (rectal, vaginal, ear, sinus, and topical), nebulizing, ozone IVs, ozone saunas, and hyperbaric chamber sessions. If any of these are unfamiliar to you, reach out and I’m happy to explain, instruct or direct you towards a resource to try!
September 6th - Moon Moves Into Pisces
*September 7th is a full moon eclipse in Pisces. This is BIG energy. Surrender to all that comes forward emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
As sensitives and artists we FEEL the full moon up to 5 days before and 5 days after it rises, so you’ll be swimming in this energy for most of this week and next. An eclipse is even more potent as it affects the earth’s magnetism in a deeply dramatic fashion and as a result our water-filled, frequency-driven bodies feel very impacted. Our emotions are going to be running high. You may feel more introverted or tender or just have a heightened sensitivity to others and yourself. Have sooooo much grace for your body and the bodies of those around you during this time. Pisces is the energy, the personality, the feeling of dreamy, watery illusions and ideals. It’s okay if you or others get swept up in ideals and fantasy right now. In fact, as creatives, USE IT to make potent art. This is our time. In your body, you may feel more water-logged and find yourself craving mineral-rich seafood. If the bloating/swelling gets uncomfortable, incorporate potassium and debloating/deswelling herbs like fennel and cumin into your diet. I love drinking floose leaf fennel seed tea often around the full moon to clear excess fluids in my body. My favorite source is here. I steep it in 16-24 oz of hot water right before bed and then drink it all upon waking.

Weekly Energetic Weather: August 25-31st
Overall Themes
Life is beginning again. Renewed and reset, you may smell the fresh air all around you. Soak it in.
Amidst this, the focus on relationships continues through Thursday. An invitation to view intimacy and depth in your friendships, family, and especially with partners and lovers. Your patterns are being mirrored back to you by those around you. What are they showing you with their reactions and responses to you? What is being highlighted for you? Sit with this.
One of the themes coming forward for me has been vulnerability. I’ve been reminded that vulnerability cannot exist without honesty and clarity. I’ve been finding that in all interactions, directness in word and heart is key. By directness, I do not mean harsh, critical or rough. Direct communication is a heavenly gift that can open up hearts when expressed graciously and with a full pure heart. It’s the motivation and tone behind your clear words that make all the difference. Direct is honest. Honest is authentic. Authentic relating is where transparency lives, and within transparency, we find real opportunity for deep vulnerability, connection, and rich love.
As you engage with the humans in your life, may what’s reflected back to you take you further into your soul. May your interactions be wholly real and true by honoring your messiness and moving forward despite. May you feel cherished and loved, because you are finally able to offer soft care and pure love to those you hold dear.
Thursday through Sunday, there is a call to re-evaluate your work and overall giving load. Where are you self-abandoning or over-committing? Are you honoring this week’s call to reset, recoup and recover? If you’re in a relationship or commitment that requires constant focus, energy, and intense forward movement without any space for recovery, a boundary may need to be discussed and established. This energy is not negative; it actually speaks to overworking or overgiving from a place of passion and care, but to stay on your soul’s path you need to make sure your efforts are sustainable and within your calling. So take some space this weekend and use the quiet to review your direction. If you’re on track and feeling alive in your daily givings, then carry on. If not, now is the time to make the necessary changes. Use this energy to flow back into your correct stream. It’ll feel real good!
Moon Schedule
August 25th - Moon Moves Into Libra
Libra loves beauty. Take these few days to relish in your unique beauty. If you struggle with seeing it, these are the days to be kind and gentle with yourself. Get into the details. What about you DO you love, do you cherish, do you secretly feel is lovely? Let yourself feel a little self-obsessed. Your body is gorgeous. It IS. It also NEEDS you to acknowledge this. The more you savor your 3D being, the safer it feels to live in it, and the more it will glow. Your health is directly tied to your concept of your beauty. You radiate when you feel GOOD in your body. This is because your body responds positively at a cellular level when you feel at home and in love with your features, build, color, texture, smell, and presence. Savor YOU for a healthy life.
August 28th - Moon Moves Into Scorpio
Scoprio rules your colon, so this is the time to enjoy your hydrating veggies and fruits. Get your little butt over to the farmers market and fill up your kitchen with water-rich snap peas, green beans, various squashes, tomatoes, cucumbers, color-rich lettuces, berries, juicy nectarines, plums, and peaches… Allow your body to clear out any stuck or old foods resting in your large intestine. Another helpful tip: drink 16 ounces of pure spring water right upon waking and then follow it with a little piece of citrus skin peel. You’ll have a wonderfully cleansing bowel movement. You’re welcome ;).
August 30th - Moon Moves Into Sagittarius
Move, move, move. Get your blood circulating, your lymph dancing, and your breath flowing. Sagittarius rules the areas of your body that contracts and expands, and your support in activating this process can take your body far. In heat, we can tend to slow down and avoid this need, so if you’re dying, take a cooler approach and go for a lovely swim! Your summer prescription: a morning stretch, a day in the sun, an afternoon swim and an evening walk under the moonlight. You may just have the best sleep of your life!

Weekly Energetic Weather: August 18th-24th
Overall Themes
Monday through Friday we are reviewing our commitments, our investments. Where are we giving our time, energy, and focus? Are these intentional or just happening because we fell into them? Re-evaluate their impact on your life. Are they contributing to the life you envisioned for yourself at the start of this year or are they taking you off track?
Some commitments might not be panning out as you desired, but the personal discipline or act of remaining is worth the continuation. I’m not recommending abandoning everything that is not working or going as planned. Devotion to an intention or desired outcome is valuable too, even though low valley moments or seasons. Take this week to simply reflect on your decisions. What’s worth it?
Over the weekend, intimacy and its foundational instigator, vulnerability, is up for play. Your desire to connect and be heard, felt, seen, and known will sharpen. As it does, remember the value of your worth and pause before you give. Your heart, your words, your thoughts, your body – treasure these as they should be treasured. You are of God. Divine in the flesh. You are a gift. Not everyone is ready for or going to be respectful of your value. Note who is and who isn’t and let your actions match it. This is a hot sexy weekend… so the pull is going to be strong… prep yourself and know how you want to wisely channel this energy for the beautiful expansion, enriching connection, and/or vulnerable adventure it can be. You are gold, treat yourself as such.
Moon Schedule
August 18th - Moon Moves Into Cancer
Cancer carries our emotions in our chest. Our breast tissue, our lungs, our upper digestion all come into the spot light today and Tuesday. Give these areas some love. Gentle breast massage is so important for healthy lymphatic flow and cancer prevention. I’ve shared this on instagram – I’m such a fan of coating the breasts in iodine topically to keep them healthy, lifted and fibro/cyst-free. For light support, a water-based iodine is lovely. If you have a cyst or fibroadenoma, then painting the entire breast in lugol’s iodine is wonderful! Wait for it to dry before putting on a shirt. Do it in the morning so that you can benefit from the energy boost it will give you. *How quickly the iodine color is absorbed/fades will tell you how badly your body needs iodine. If under 24 hours, you are in a deficit.
August 20th - Moon Moves Into Leo
Leo brings us to the heart. Staying well-hydrated and well-mineralized will be the key these days. These nights are lovely for foot baths with magnesium flakes or gentle head and neck massages to reduce pressure and improve circulation. If you find you’re catching the end-of-summer cold that’s going around, email me for my go-to Immune tonic and Warming Sock therapy that helps clear this stubborn virus quickly and reduce all the congestion in your throat, sinuses, and head.
August 23rd - Moon Moves Into Virgo
Virgo is ALL about the body. Give yourself some deep love here with the full treatment. Eat nourishing food, drink half your weight in ounces of water, go to bed early, wake up with the sun, meditate, and step straight into a yoga flow… let yourself live your best routine and health days. Your efforts on these Virgo moon days will go extra far. You’ll see and feel the benefits deeply!
