Sagittarius Season

Here we are in adventurous, expansive Sagittarius season – the perfect energy with which to welcome a new year. Please do be aware that I work with the true sidereal zodiac, which considers astrology from the actual placement of the stars in the current time. You can check this out for a quick 101 on Sidereal Astrology. Sidereal Sagittarius - December 20th to January 21st The Sun actually rises in the constellation of Sagittarius from 20th December 2021 through to 21st January 2022.  I am currently based in Melbourne, Australia so depending on where you are in the world the change of sign may occur across the dateline and be a day ‘earlier’ than it is for me. And, yes if you read up about sidereal astrology, these dates are not set in stone, over almost three quarters of a century the dates will change by one day, in accordance with precession. As we have seen for the last few signs, Sidereal Sagittarius dates are a big change from Tropical Western astrology dates for Sagittarius (22nd November - 21st December).  The difference is almost a month with only a couple of days of overlap and this can result in a bit of an identity crisis!  If you feel strongly attached to your Sagittarius personality it is probably because it is still a strong energy in your astrological chart, even if

Scorpio Season

Yes, it’s Scorpio season!  But don’t be afraid! Scorpio gets a really bad rap, probably mostly because its deep, intuitive intensity is not valued in modern life.  We all just want to keep taking action like Aries and keep moving onto the next thing like Gemini and keep perfecting like Virgo, without taking the time to dive inwards and find out who we really are and what we are truly here to do. Please do be aware that I work with the sidereal zodiac, which considers astrology from the actual placement of the stars in the current time. You can check this out for a quick 101 on Sidereal Astrology. Sidereal Scorpio - November 25th to December 7th The Sun actually rises in the constellation of Scorpio from 25th November through to 7th December this year – hold your breath for this short but deep dive! And, yes if you read up about sidereal astrology, these dates are not set in stone, over almost three quarters of a century the dates will change by one day, in accordance with precession. Something else I need to say here is that I practice 13 sign astrology, which brings in an additional (13th) sign, Ophiuchus, between Scorpio and Sagittarius.  The reason that we include Ophiuchus is because it appears in the zodiac belt, just as the other 12 signs do.  However, if you’ve

Libra Season

We are now halfway through the astrological year (which began back in April with Aries Season).  We have done all the hard work of perfecting things during Virgo Season and now we’re ready for the peace, harmony and romance of Libra Season. Sounds lovely doesn’t it! Please do be aware that I work with the sidereal zodiac, which considers astrology from the actual placement of the stars in the current time. You can check this out for a quick 101 on Sidereal Astrology. Sidereal Libra - November 5th to November 24th The Sun actually rises in the constellation of Libra from 5th November through to 24th November – so we don’t get much time in this balanced season! Libra is a small constellation and so its season runs for less than 3 weeks. And, yes if you read up about sidereal astrology, these dates are not set in stone, over almost three quarters of a century the dates will change by one day, in accordance with precession. This is a big change from Tropical Western astrology dates for Libra (23rd September – 23rd October), there is no overlap at all, and this can result in a bit of an identity crisis!  If you feel strongly attached to your Libra personality it is probably because it is still a strong energy in your astrological chart, even if your sun does not

Balanced Relationships with the Double Libra Full Moon

The April 2019 full moon is known as a Double Full Moon because it is the second month in a row that she appears in the sign of Libra.  We all know Libra as the sign of balance, and this moon is certainly providing us with the energy to work towards this with a special focus on our relationships.  The power of the double full moon brings things that were hidden to the surface. Energetic balance in relationships When considering the relationships in our lifes it can be useful to think about which people and relationships give us energy and which drain our energy.  This is critical if we are to have energetic balance.  If we feel that we are constantly giving too much of our energy to other people, or they are draining it from us with their physical, emotional or spiritual demands it is impossible to remain balanced. The energy of the full moon allows provides support for finishing, closing off and letting go what has been happening over the last month.  With a double full moon this is especially powerful.  The space between the two Libra full moons provided an opportunity for us to really create the beginnings of whatever we wanted to bring into our lives – I hope you used this energy wisely? But this strong energetic portal of manifestation is now closing with the

Fire Up your Wellbeing

This is the third of my Blogs focusing on the holistic health view Chakras and this one is all about the 3rd Chakra - the solar plexus energy centre - which governs our overall sense of Power, Energy and Balance.???? If you would prefer to read the full piece instead of, or as well as, watching the video, it was published by Sivana East. We have 7 main energy centres in the body.  These energy centres operate on all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Different systems call the energy centres different names, but almost all traditional systems of medicine recognise these energy centres as well as other minor energy centres, and energy pathways. In my practice I refer to the energy centres as the Chakras – which comes from the Indian tradition.  Many energy healers work with the Chakras. Chakras are areas where the body is very open to receiving energy, from all sources. When it becomes imbalanced the flow of energy into the chakra is depleted or even prevented.   Each chakra governs and works with specific areas of physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.  To get your FREE copy of my Chakra Balancing Ebook click here. Balance in any of the Chakras works on a spectrum, so if you can relate to extremes in any of these areas you may have an imbalanced 3rd Chakra: how energetic you feel in

Work Life Balance for Career Wellbeing

How is your Work Life Balance?  Really?  Your energetic balance and the ability for your spiritual, emotional and physical body to heal itself is affected by the balance of your life.  Do you make enough time to do things other than work?  Do you switch your brain off from work stuff for enough time each day, and especially on weekends? These are a couple of articles that we thought were worth sharing on this topic. The first article discusses that more and more organisations are actually only looking to employ people who value balance in their lives.  If you're heading to a job interview soon, be prepared to answer questions on how you would handle situations that may impact on your work life balance! The second article talks about why you should NOT eat lunch at your desk!!  Spring is coming and your lunchtime should soon look like this picture!!  How do you ensure that you have optimal work life balance?  We'd love to hear from you on what works best for you and how you manage the emotions behind this balancing act (think - guilt)! If you struggle to commit to balance, even though you know you should, then Reiki could help.  Reiki will bring all of your energies into balance and meaning that your mind is clearer, you are better able to focus and prioritise, you can tap into your intuition and what is really
