Weekly Energetic Weather: June 30-July 6th

Overall Themes

This week is gonna feel feisty and spicy. Starting tomorrow the provocateurs of the world will be activated and all of us will feel the heat. This is both beautiful and hard. The upside? Growth and revelation can come from being poked and prodded. I experienced this last week. I often encounter the energy of the coming week right before; it’s like my being is prepping. Both my physical and emotional boundaries were tested by two new-to-me humans and I had a big wake-up call. I thought I knew my lines, my boundaries, but I was shown the weakness of their hold. In theory, I knew what to do, but when the moment hit, I found myself fully bulldozed. I was shocked and frozen on the other side. It had been a while since this had happened to me and I thought I was “beyond it”, but now in hindsight, I can see I needed these lessons.

I spent this last weekend recovering by coming back into myself and focusing on rebuilding my energy and reconnecting to my voice, my purpose, and my values. Clarifying who is allowed access to me and who is not, and how to navigate the hazy in-between. The process was exhausting and uncomfortable, but the outcome was worth it because it brought forward quite a few big breakthroughs around my past and confirmed the need for deeper support.

The present is always a reflection of what is undone and lingering from the past… I was provoked, but it gave me a sharp reminder that activated the courage needed to protect my sacred energy. Priceless.

You may have a similar journey this week. The catalyzation of your soul can come from a simple irritating experience or one that completely flattens you. Either way, if it comes, take a breath and recognize that this is part of the energetic weather of the moment and it is an invitation to process what is lingering inside you. Since we are solidly in cancer season, let your emotional landscape be your place of dance, not your mind. In other words, try to feel instead of intellectualizing the full range of emotions around the moment or situation. Let it all come out in a safe place.

You may also be tempted to feel the full range of the provocateur’s emotions. Let that part go. You are only responsible for your own experience. No people pleasing, managing, fixing or merging this week. Focus on what this brings up in you and keep your energy here.

As we discussed last week, Cancer rules the family and, more importantly, your original (read parental and sibling) attachment wounds, sooooo you can guess where all this may show up. Yep, book that therapy session now. Pull out the flower essences and be gentle on your body. You may notice difficulty digesting this week. My single sessions are here for you if you need guidance and support.

This is a fiery and tender week, not an ideal combo, but hopefully with this insight, you can float above others’ treatment and focus your attention on diving into the juicy data it gives you about yourself and your core blocks. If used strategically, this week could lead to powerful releases and the clearance of deeply engrained patterns that have kept you stuck for most of your life. May Divine wisdom guide you, and gentleness lead you as you courageously face your most painful hurts and shift your entire future in one week. It’s a profound time. Use it, my friends.

Moon Schedule

Watch your body. Observe and note how it reveals what you need to address or resolve as the moon moves through the zones of your body. The moonlight is spotlighting your body and focusing attention. Whatever energy the moon is dancing in will highlight that same energy in the body. You will see either a rise in radiance or an unveiling of imbalance in the zones of the body connected to the earth’s current energy. It’s a free litmus test. If this sounds woo-woo, remember it’s just because you weren’t taught this in depth in school, but we are discussing physics here. Everything on the earth and in the solar system around the earth emits energy/magnetism. This energy/magnetism activates your body at a cellular level. The system of astrology is simply an ancient way of understanding how all this impacts us. An archaic language is used that can, until you are familiar with it, feel foreign and even mystical, but it’s simply labeling and categorizing action and effect, like any other system you’re more accustomed to understanding. Let’s go over this week’s moon flow:

July 1st - Moves Into Libra:

Ah Libra, the ruler of the kidneys, adrenals, and ovaries. The queen of homeostasis and balance. The moon will be highlighting your ability to maintain balance by reviewing your detox, energy, stress management, and hormonal status. Get your water in, but don’t forget your minerals. Magnesium, potassium, and sodium are necessary for both hydration and healthy adrenal function. If you notice hormonal fluctuations over these three days, consider looking into the health and vitality of your ovaries with your favorite practitioner. Your body will be obsessed with creating balance, which may create tension if you’re experiencing the emotional waves of this week’s provocative Cancerian twist. My best advice, slow down and open up your days, cultivate space for your body to feel and express and clear.

July 4th - Moon Moves Into Scorpio:

Scorpio rules the colon, and here we may notice dryness or holding that leads to constipation and then bloating or pain. This is a natural result of feeling unsafe as you face old wounds or experience cortisol shocks from possible encounters… stay hydrated and gently massage your abdomen nightly. A little trick if you can’t seem to clear your stool is to skin an orange or lemon and chew and swallow a small piece. Think smaller than a dime. This not a time for rectal contraction, let your sweet cheeks soften and your anus relax. I love baths and yoga for this.

July 6th - Moon Moves Into Sagittarius:

Lung expansion and breath. Lean into heart openers in your yoga practice. Roll the shoulders back and open up the ribcage. Breathe deeply, all the way down to your pelvic floor. Go on walks under the bright blue summer sky and inhale fully. Feel the grief and let it out with sobs, words or strong exhales. If you wake up at 4 AM during these nights, it’s a sign you are moving through alot of deep sadness and or needing more oxygen to flow through the lungs - support both by placing a hand over your heart telling yourself in a soft voice “I love you. It’s good to feel this. You’re home, You’re safe.” and focusing on your breath until you return to sleep. It’s a part of your healing process. The wake-ups will pass when the moon shifts.

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: June 23-29th

Overall Themes

A weekend of human behavior at its most extremes. Last week I mentioned this past weekend would hold a lot of reflection on our humanity as a whole. The good, the bad, the confusing in between, it’s all floating around heavily right now. Life doesn’t stop for tragedy and pain and it can leave us in a space of disillusionment, dissociation or anger.

This energy is continuing until Wednesday, but with the ever-curious Gemini moon to flavor it. Intellectualization of our emotions may be the unconscious coping mechanism, as a result. Once we hit that Cancer new moon on the 25th though and in the days to follow, it’ll be necessary for you to let the emotions hit your body. You can then express through motion or action, like a good run or a good weep. If you don’t, when the Leo moon hits on Friday, all that stored and intellectualized emotion could show up as anger or internal frustration that most likely will come out in your go-to childhood-patterned way.

With the Cancer new moon we are invited to review how we are mothering ourselves. If like me, motherhood or being mothered has pain around it, this can be a stark time, but hopefully since I’m giving you the heads up, you can prepare a bit.

Keep Wednesday through next Tuesday softer. Speak to the little one inside you that wanted and longed for that deep acceptance and unconditional love from your mother. I do this by visualizing the most precious and darling little girl that i feel compelled to care for or I’ll recall pictures of little Jess that I love. In response to any fears, hurts, worries, confusion or anger that come up, I speak to myself in a comforting voice and gently hug myself or rub my hand over my chest center and say things like “I hear you sweetheart.” “You are safe.” “I know everything looks scary right now, but I’ve got you.” “ You’re allowed to feel this. You won’t lose yourself. I’m here.” It can sound silly, but it’s remarkably helpful and soothing.

Also, wrap yourself up the way a mother with the gift for unconditional love and deep nurturing would wrap you up – with nourishing foods, lots of rest and sleep, encouraging words, and strong protection of your worth and energy. Lean into stillness, with this grace as your foundation. In the stillness, you’ll find yourself once again. Clarity will come. Emotions will settle. Your body will rest easy. Even if the world is on fire, you will find your strength and resilience from this new internal mothering. You will embody exactly what you’ve needed and it will show.

Once you’ve savored this well, let yourself play and be light to balance it all out. Stillness is lovely until it creates extended isolation. Find your balance between the two in your own unique way this weekend. You are loved. You can feel. You can move forward. You can play. You can live.

Moon Schedule

June 23rd - Moon in Gemini:

Tonight and tomorrow, I encourage you to dive into some breathwork, whether that’s guided or simply you slowing down to notice your inhale and exhale. Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth, often, over the course of the day to ease any congestion in the mind and in the lungs. The body needs extra oxygen these days to keep up with the intense mental and verbal processing that you will be navigating. The brain gobbles up its fuel (glucose and ketones) in energy like this, so you don’t have to be physically active to create an energy deficit in the body. In your human design chart, under digestion, you can see whether you have an active or passive brain. If you have an active brain like me, then you need A LOT of nourishment (nutrient-dense food and hydrating mineral-rich liquids) on Gemini days.

June 23rd - Moves Into Cancer with a New Moon:

Ahhh the refreshing energy of a new moon. Cancer is tied physically to the chest, including the stomach and lower lymphatics. Emotionally, it’s connected to family and the process of attachment. It is the energy of care and nourishment embodied by the Mother archetype. Look at your chart to see what house (areas in your life) that Cancer (type of energy) comes forward for you. For example, Cancer is my 7th house of partnership and my descendant, meaning it'll bring up past/present romantic and platonic partnership themes as well as enhance my natural foundational Cancerian energy. I often receive feedback that I am a very calming, mothering personality, and this descendant placement is where that originates. Your descendant is your core. What you’ve already mastered and just flows out of you subconsciously. Where is Cancer in your map? This will also show when and where the physical element will express most strongly. So for me, I may find that my stomach feels the impact of what I’m processing through with my partnerships and family/attachment style. This could feel like indigestion if I’m not prepared, losing my appetite or even becoming ravenous. I take this all in stride and respond as my body needs. Instead of assuming something is wrong, I acknowledge that this is my body’s current state in light of the energetic weather and allow it to pass through as needed. I know I’ll be good on the other side of it all.

Lastly, New Moons are a beautiful time to observe you or your loved one’s menstrual cycle. If you’re flowing around this time, then you’re in a creation cycle (P.S. Cancer season is THE most potent time for fertility and making babies, so act accordingly. If you are pregnant, really focus on building up the strength of your uterus during this time. Cancer rules the uterus, only when pregnant, so this is a time you can really fortify to hold your babe solidly!). If you’re ovulating, then you’re in a healing cycle. Both are beautiful and give you information on what your body is prioritizing in this season.

June 27th - Moon Moves Into Leo:

Stepping into the heart and the gallbladder with this moon, we see emotional state + need for expression. Without healthy release in the days prior, you might find yourself very angry or bitter at this time. Physically, that can feel like nausea, pain under the right ribcage, body or mind anxiety/panic, waking up between 1-3 AM and can look like heat, rashes, hive spots, breakouts, and constipation or floating light brown stool.

Cover your right abdomen and side body with castor oil overnight (wear a tee you don’t care about to prevent staining or stickiness) to support your liver/gallbladder clearance.
Write down what is most aggravating and frustrating about life right now and then tear up the paper and burn it. As you burn, it declare your prayers out loud – inviting in release, forgiveness, clarity and wisdom.
If you have fiery energy in you, like Leo, Sagittarius or Aries, on your sun, moon, mars or rising, then definitely MOVE. SWEAT. Go kickboxing or punch a pillow/punching bag. You’ll feel AMAZING afterwards. Ease through this weekend and even if you have to move the body like I suggest, invite in the stillness I mentioned above in the mind. Mental quiet and focus can actually often be found through physical exertion so go for it!

Wishing you well as you navigate this week’s energetic weather!

Rituals to Stay Resilient And Fresh... Through Everything

Life has been… let’s just say challenging since 2020 for all of us and staying healthy has fallen by the wayside for many, but not YOU. I know you’re like me and value how you feel and think and move through your days. I’m sure you’ve played and tried and tweaked your routine and tools often. Me too! Yesterday I got the hit to share what I do on a weekly basis to stay clear, light, grounded, fresh, glowing, and resilient through ALL of the things. I’ve really been loving my most recent flow and I feel you might too.

BUT, first, I just have to clear this one piece up, because it’s a profusely expressed requirement in the health world, and if you’re anything like me it can trip you up. True story – I do not focus on consistency. I am ritualistic. Meaning, I honor the spirit of something over the rigidity of it. Oddly enough (don’t tell my mind this) but it creates a level of consistency that if I had tried for would not have happened. Call it the rebel in me, but if there is no pressure or strict requirement to do the big thing, then I suddenly find it much easier and even delightful to accomplish that big thing. So you have full permission from me to drop the consistency clause and just give my rituals, weekly or daily, a try. Whatever you keep finding yourself drawn to will survive and become your ritual.

Here are the mains that I weave into my life in a ritualistic manner…

Weekly Rituals

Sauna

I am a huge fan of sauna since seeing the massive shift it had on my body, partnered with hyperbaric therapy, when I was clearing multiple heavy mold exposures. I now keep it up as a simple 40-minute session every week to keep my body clear and my detox pathways open! I have many ways I make the most of this weekly sweat to enhance its effect, like pairing specifically-timed binders and temperature breaks to ramp up my sweating capability without stressing my nervous system. I love it!

Gentle Ozone Therapy

I do a very low dose rectally and vaginally 1x a week. I am a huge proponent for at-home ozone, as in having your own generator and applying yourself. This is an empowering tool I want everyone to have in their home. It’s unbelievably easy and safe. It can be titrated up and down depending on your reason of use, so it’s great for chronic or acute symptoms. You can incorporate as a preventative 1-3 times a year or increase it up to daily for intense seasons of reset. You can transform your body if dealing with mold, chronic infection, dysbiosis, and so much. Order your own and/or book a single session with me if you want to be walked through it. This is an example of the level of work we do in my Concierge Reset.

Somatic Experiencing Therapy

I LOVE this. It’s challenging, but grounding work for me. I very very easily lose connection to my body under pressure, stress or change. I was not raised in a home that knew how to be in the body and hold presence, even under easy circumstances. I’m retraining myself. As I’ve been moving through it, it’s actually been beautiful to realize that I’ve been doing a lot of this work, just in my own way, since 2017. Right now, I’m working through an incredible training/collection that is teaching me how to go much deeper for my specific scenario, which I’ve since learned is more complicated than I realized or was willing to believe. Once a week, I go in; always learning and always growing. I highly recommend Jenna Pacelli or Janelle Nelson if you feel drawn to SE.

Sacred Day

This is a new one I’ve been honoring since the beginning of April. I’m 90+ days in and it’s been huge. I take one day a week to be quiet. To have it be just me and God. To, ideally, fully turn off my phone, disconnect from the energies of the world, and return to my own body and spirit. I actually stack the above rituals on this day and simply add in a nap, home cooking, and an inspiring film to close out the day. I cocoon and treat myself the way I want all of my clients to treat themselves. It’s the day I practice embodiment and give my all to the integration of the handful of lessons and wake-up calls that came into my heart during the week. I’m in a deep season of rebirth, so this has been absolutely essential for me.

Daily Rituals

Aloe Vera & Probiotic

I’m a HUGE proponent of whole leaf aloe vera juice (2-4 oz) upon waking, paired with a probiotic that suits my current microbiome needs. This is what has kept my digestive function and gut microbiome in a healthy, maintained state for many years. It’s also what keeps my skin hydrated, since I tend towards dry dehydrated skin. My skin took a beating from a lifetime of heavy mold exposure, so I’m continually supporting it daily. Also, hello Capricorn ascendant and stellium… skin is where everything comes is revealed for me.

Morning Water

I like to give myself a head start on my daily water consumption, because once the day gets rolling, I can get easily distracted and find myself thirsty and dehydrated by the evening. I don’t recommend pairing lots of water with food, so I do this to avoid the heavy water intake near dinner. It’s interesting because there’s something about hydrating well in the morning that keeps me aware and on top of my hydration all day long too. It’s like I turn on the reminder switch with this ritual. Anyways… I drink at least 16 oz of quality spring water first thing, and then give a little space, think 30 minutes or more, before I eat breakfast. When I want a gentle detox, some internal cooling or I need to soothe my digestive tract, I’ll add in 5 drops of chlorophyll. My skin loooooves this ritual.

Flower Essences

If you’ve been in my world for a minute, you know I’m a huge proponent of vibrational remedies, flower remedies being my daily go-to. I formulate custom remedies for all my Concierge Reset clients as a part of their support. For myself, and actually when formulating for my clients as well, I’m continually tuning into the body and asking what emotional support it needs by holding the essence bottles and doing my subconscious swing, as described in my Method. I notice SUCH a difference in my emotional stability and resilience when I take my remedy daily. I’m a big feeler and emotions are continually flowing through me, so I’m always going to be experiencing highs and lows, but bringing in the frequencies of the emotion or intention of how I want to respond to what I’m feeling really softens the edge and allows me to feel good and grounded through the rollercoaster. Again, I share more about this in my Method. I add 1-3 drops of my remedy to my daily water and sip throughout the day. Right now, my remedy holds the Bach flower essences of Gentian, Star of Bethlehem, Larch, and Centaury. I’ve been taking and documenting my personal remedy formulations since 2018.

Morning Tonic

This concoction has been another stable support for many years. I have added and subtracted its ingredients and played with it so many times. It’s quite the curation for me. I shared my recipe if you want to give the current tonic a whirl. You can also shop my stabilizing ingredients. I drink this every morning right before or with breakfast as my first nutrient touch. It provides energy, blood sugar stabilization, antioxidants, liver cleansing, moisturizing, stress reduction, and brain clarity. I very very rarely go a morning without it.

Reconnection Practice

I feel like I keep saying this, but it’s true… this one has been with me for a very long time. I think in total 8-ish years in one form or another? Ultimately, it’s a perfect combo of one very specific yoga flow I choreographed, that was inspired by a yoga practitioner that was very dear to me back around 2014, and a very personal hands-on-healing body-regenerative prayer-meets-reiki-style meditation. I know. It’s actually quite simple in practice, despite how it sounds, but I’ve also found it to be incredibly profound in its impact. I gave it the name Reconnection in 2022, I believe. It’s usually the first thing I do after brushing my teeth and taking my shot of aloe vera juice and probiotic in the morning. I also sip my morning water through it. I like to stack a lot of my daily rituals around the Reconnection. It can look a little different morning to morning, depending on what my body needs or how in tune I feel with God. Sometimes it’s more horizontal body reconnection, tuning in to my organs and their needs, and other times it’s more prayer and vertical reconnection, inviting in Divine healing and wisdom, recognizing my angels’ protective presence, and thanking God for another day of life. This is in my Method if you want to try it for yourself.

Supplements

I will never stop taking therapeutic high-potency and curated supplements. This is a foundational part of why I feel incredible. I found my perfect support system and I know how to enhance and soften it as my body needs day to day. If you want to be able to tackle whatever comes at you, it’s not just about the basics. It’s about firing on all cylinders and giving your body the tools to ramp healing, recovery, and regeneration all the way to full max. I shared a glimpse into my protocol last week, but perhaps I should give the full rundown so you all can see what I’m doing! In general, I’m always supporting digestive strength, thyroid and adrenal recovery, detox efficiency, and immune clarity as these are my areas of varying natural vulnerability. I have an incredibly sensitive body. This may not be the case for you. I set out my supplements every few days and store them in these lovely squishy silicone containers to make it easy. I don’t like to do it weekly, as I adjust my dosing often to exactly what I need in the moment. I truly believe this is like 50% of why I feel amazing physically on a daily basis. I know I could feel good and normal without them, but I want to live at my full measure each day, so I prefer to take them ;).

Subconscious Statements

These are my own take on rewiring the brain and manifestation - a very popular approach to resetting your life nowadays. I have been using them aggressively since 2023 and, well, let’s just say my life completely shifted. TBD how this all turns out, but I’ve never had a practice so dramatically clarify my perspective, deepen my connection to God, and build self respect. I didn’t start out this life with much identity or self-worth, and it’s only been in the last 7-8 years that I’ve begun to move into a more healthy and balanced view of myself. A lot of critique, confusion, shame, guilt, and fear built me. I (or really We) have been layer by layer tearing it all down and as a result my life has been in a state of slow shedding since 2017. It started with my parents, then community and culture, then close friends, then to my nearest and dearest, and finally last year in a rapid and, to be honest, shocking shift, to the love of my life. Shedding of unhealthy behaviors and perspectives, as I’ve learned, happens in cycles and with each pass of the spiral, I take my understanding deeper and deeper. A full rebirth is still very much in process. I cannot claim arrival by any means, so I won’t. What I’m going through as a result of taking this work seriously is not something I recommend lightly, but if you’re serious about living as you were created to live, not out of the mold you were pressed into and are trying to maintain, then this practice is for you. It will get you on course with God’s divine and original intention. Hopefully, you’re only a little bit off, so it’ll be gentle. I apparently needed a full phoenix situation! All this being said, coming back into my original true nature and respecting my full measure has taught me what it looks like to actually be healthy in all areas. It’s from this growth – facing increasingly challenging and painful loss over the last year – that I’ve been able to witness and literally stress-test my resilience, and it has shocked me! My newly-earned capacity has proven itself and is now at a robust depth I didn’t know I could ever possess. I have a list of these statements that are crafted and intentionally word-smithed to emotionally ignite me. I engage with them 2x daily during times that my subconscious is very soft and open. If you’re interested, I teach you how to do this in the Method and in my sessions.

Water, Brain & Nightly Walks

I’m a walker. Back in the day, I was an athlete and dancer, then I became a runner and a barre instructor, but that led to high cortisol and more stress on my body than was healthy for me at the time. I embraced yoga and walking and it dramatically improved my stress capacity and my body shape. I may soon be able to return to running again, but for now if I need to release extra energy, I power walk or dance the night away. Walking is incredibly gentle on the body, activates creativity, and invigorates the brain. I often take a midday walk to separate my morning from my afternoon, especially if I’ve been on the computer a lot. I will take my water bottle with me and sip to hydrate or I’ll go bare and give myself the single-focused activity of taking in my surroundings. These walks have always been short – a neighborhood path or just around the block for 5-10 minutes. My longer walk happens almost every night. I’ve had the blessing of living by the sea for much of my life, so I can end my day with a negative ion reset from the sea breeze. I also loooove people watching. It’s the perfect way to get out of my brain and any self-focus that’s gone on too long. I highly recommend ending your day walking at dusk or even better under the stars and moonlight. If you can, add in the subconscious statements. Saying them at this time is incredibly impactful for the unconscious brain because of the bilateral movement and energetic connection occurring with the atmosphere, stars, and moon. I feel closer to God when I am near the sea at night, so there’s the power of belief that naturally opens up my brain, making it easier to accept the statements at a deeper level. Walks along the ocean have been in my life since I could drive a car. They’re profoundly integrated into my life.

Massage with home tools morning & night

I’m a huge fan of small, regular fascia and muscle release to stay loose, relaxed, and open. To activate healthy lymph flow, especially to keep the skin clear and radiant, I use a Theracane morning and night along my spine and neck. I also love to use a gua sha tool to softly awaken the areas under my jaw and at the base of my neck. Most facial breakouts and congestion occur from backed-up lymph. I roll out my feet whenever I think about it on a lacrosse ball to break up tension. There are so many acupressure points on the feet that correspond with the rest of the body, this simple action has a systemic effect. I also like to jump, Chi swing, and rebound as well to jostle and activate movement. I’ll be honest, I haven’t done this one in a while, but I also love a good roll on a foam roller. These are all simple actions that can be done whenever they come to your mind. I just keep the tools out in the open, so they catch my attention throughout the day. An open body is a radiant body.

Clear my energy with prayer & selenite nightly

I end my day with a 3 step ritual that clears my energy body, supports overnight restoration focus, and allows me to sleep purely.

I wave a stick of selenite over my body 3x to clear my aura.
I gently massage my abdomen, focusing on my small intestine, and then my large intestine, paying special attention to my ileocecal valve and sigmoid. This helps promote movement of any stuck food, energy or toxins and a solid BM in the morning. My body can then focus on regenerative action instead of peristalsis and finalization of the day’s digestion.
I sweep my body’s energy field. I press my hands together over my head with an inhale and with an exhale sweep the hands down the body and away from each other like wings. I do this 3x and often make a proclamation like:“I clear ____ from my body”, “I release the emotions of _______”, “I cut off all energies that are not the true me and the true God”. I clear people by name or speak to the general energy I’ve taken in from the day or really just anything I want to disconnect my body from holding on to overnight. This has been hugely helpful. I used to drown in others’ energies, fears, worries, expectations, dreams, etc and couldn’t differentiate myself from them. Now I can notice the difference when it’s just me and God versus me plus others’ imprints. I get to sleep peacefully and start the next morning having soaked in the purity of my own aura and the beautiful protection of Divine energy. I often picture my angels surrounding my bed throughout the night. My bedroom and bed are deeply sacred to me.

This may seem like a lot to do in a day or week, but remember I am a lot… ;). Haha but really, I have found that most of these practices have become second nature over the many years I’ve been incorporating them. I did not start out with all of them. I built over time and slowly added more as my need or capacity grew naturally. So if you’re just beginning, please pick one or two that sound intriguing and delicious. If any sounds hard or like you “should” do them, then don’t. Do the ones that sound NICE. That’s what will keep you in it. I’m not a fan of the pain = gain mentality. It has rarely, if ever, worked for me. I have to make it enjoyable and beautiful and nurturing to build it into a sustainable ritual. You may be the same. Either way, enjoy whichever you try. I know they will reset and rebirth you as they have me. Sending love to you.

Weekly Energetic Weather: June 16th - 22nd

Overall Themes

This week’s energy continues to encourage us to pursue meaningful, impactful conversations and cautions us around speaking without a solid connection to our true selves and calling. Emotionality, and even wildness, in words is actually beautiful, but emotionality or wildness coming from a place of grounded internal truth versus chaotic external activation is quite different. Both are present in our world at the moment. What are you going to choose? You’re only responsible for your approach. Step into your discussions, expressions, and proclamations with intention and integrity this week.

Starting on Thursday, we transition into a potent but reflective energy. You may find yourself reacting to or spending time reviewing humanity and yourself, extremes of good and bad, high and low, beauty and horror. Allow yourself to go here. Sit with it all and see what comes up.

This time also welcomes in the solstice, a moment of warmth, self, strong contemplation of identity and purpose, and if embodied well, powerful magnetism. It’s a beautiful time to sink deeply into your full whole personhood. To remember your unique purpose - it’s there, waiting for you to recall. You know it, you just may not trust it. This is why I love systems like astrology and human design. They simply call out what you already know deep deep inside, giving you the confidence and courage (or wake up call) to return and honor it.

This is what these systems did for me. They brought undeniable clarity and showed me, sharply, what my unconscious knew, but my conscious did not want and in a way couldn’t bear to see. It made what my body and spirit understood suddenly understandable in my heart and mind. It translated what had once been confusing and unreachable into something very real and stark. I had been waffling between my intuitive path and others’ desires and expectations. The tension was great, honestly, unbearable. This is a very fresh and tender story that I’m not ready to share in full yet, but last year I broke free of this in a rush of unexpected strength and drive I didnt even know I possessed. Now, barely on the other side, I can still say I don’t know how I fully did it, but I’m here raw and fresh, gently living one day at a time like a baby figuring out its first steps again.

What does it look like to walk this life purely from integrity, purely from how God wired us, purely from heart and spirit and a healthy body?

It’s a rich week.

I will never tire of being in awe of all the connection that is our world. This energy that I am speaking to each week is scheduled. I’m not making it up and I’m not sharing it as a reaction to what’s happening. There are predictable and pre-identified rhythms, seasons, and systems that dictate our energy schedule. What’s going on in the world is the reaction to this energy. I find this a very important differentiation, because it means you are being given an opportunity to respond to an intentional energy soup each week. The world is not a random mess; it’s an orchestrated symphony of movement to shift and shape each unique human towards their wholest self. Free will is involved, so the stride of movement is dictated by you. Choose wisely.

We are all here for different reasons and our responses should reflect that, not what other people tell us to do or even what we think we should do based on the culture we grew up in. Each week is a fresh chance to engage with the universe God created and move a little closer to how we are intended to BE while on this beautiful planet.

Moon Schedule

June 16th - Moon Moves Into Pisces:

A focus on water in the body can look like a deep need for hydration of the cells and clearing of extracellular water retention. Focus on lymphatic support/movement with massage, walking, swinging in your Chi, sweating in a bath or sauna, and enjoy a shot of whole leaf aloe vera juice in the morning on an empty stomach. Consider adding in potassium-rich foods or supplement over the next two days. You may have a deeper need right now.

June 18th - Moon Moves Into Aries:

Tension, especially around the head and eyes, may arise over these three days. Support relaxation of the muscles, fascia, and blood vessels. Magnesium is my first go-to. Take in capsule form, bathe in magnesium flakes, rub it on the feel as an oil or gel. Saturate yourself in it. Work out. You may need to expend extra energy to allow for sleep and rest. If you’re not in a place to push your body in a workout, open the body up gently through stretching, yoga and breathwork. I love using self-massage tools: theracane for the neck, upper back and along the spine, foam roller for the calves, hamstrings, inner thighs, outer hips and back. Lacrosse ball for the feet, gua sha for the face and neck… have these tools on hand this week. If you need further support to break up tension, apply arnicare gel on the area at bedtime and let it soften and break up the tension as you sleep.

June 21st - Moon Moves Into Taurus:

We move into the lower head and throat region with a focus on your metabolism. Your appetite may be strong right now. If you’re gut microbiome is off, your adrenals are worn out or your blood sugar is imbalanced, then you may experience strong cravings for glucose-rich foods. Ground and fortify yourself through additional foods like walnuts, avocado and root vegetables (potatoes, carrots, zucchini), soften or avoid caffeine, gluten and high fake sugar for these few days. Your thyroid may ask for support and require iodine and other lovely sea minerals. Enjoy raw and fresh seafood and wild fish to bolster and mitigate your thyroid hormone production. If you’re navigating thyroid autoimmunity, you may feel strong fluctuations between hyper and hypo action. Take a moment to acknowledge this and feed yourself as I described above to balance and ease the impact. This is a time to really tune into your body and give it what it needs to rebuild and settle for long-term sustainability.
