    Send us Fan Mail

    The new moon is here so I have a new tarot curated intention and affirmation for us to work with. This moon cycle I used the Tarot of the Golden Wheel, and we pulled the Ace of Cups, the Nine of Swords, and the Two of Pentacles. Be sure to have a look at the cards to see what they awaken in you, lets dive in!

    • Intention: Sometimes life is overwhelming. With so much going on in the world today I feel like many of us are experiencing some level of exhaustion, upset, and fear. Pair that with personal challenges and you have a perfect recipe for feeling like everything is falling apart.
    • Affirmation: In the face of overwhelm I trust my inner strength and resilience to help me find ease.

  • October 28th Full Moon Intention & Affirmation

    The full moon is here so I have new tarot curated intention and affirmation for us to work with. This moon cycle I used the Vintage Wisdom Oracle deck and the Star Seeker tarot, and we pulled Nature, The Emperor, and The Ace of Cups. Be sure to look at the cards to see what they awaken in you, let’s dive in.

    • Intention: Incorporating nature into self-care practices is beneficial for many reasons. More and more these benefits are being backed by not only anecdotal evidence, but science as well. This moon cycle let’s explore how nature nurtures us. Perhaps in doing so we can rekindle a desire to nurture nature in return.
    • Affirmation: Nature nurtures me, and I nurture nature in return. 

    Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce stress levels. The sights, sounds, and smells of the natural world prompts a relaxation response in the brain, leading to decreased cortisol levels and a sense of calm. But it doesn’t stop there.

    Intention: Fear and hardship are two things we’ve all faced. Take a moment to reflect on times you’ve encountered each. How did you respond? What worked well? What didn’t? What would it look like to address fear, challenge, and hardship with confidence?

    Affirmation: All is well, all will be well.

    Over the years, I’ve discovered that challenges and failures (perceived or otherwise) are opportunities to learn and grow. I can see that much of my personal development is the result of encountering opposition and struggle. None the less, I often find embracing change difficult. Here are a few things I’ve found helpful.

    The full moon is here so I have a new tarot curated intention and affirmation for us to work with. I used the Wild Unknown Tarot deck, and we pulled the Son of Pentacles, the Seven of Swords, and the Wheel of Fortune. Let’s dive in!

    Intention: It’s always nice when our instincts are clear and we feel a strong yes or no, but what about times you feel a mix of both? Let’s say twenty percent of you says no, and the other eighty percent says yes. What about times when its fifty-fifty and you’re presented with a stalemate? While I love the clarity of a clear yes or no, I’m beginning to see value in circumstances that awaken uncertainty. When I take a broad view, I see that uncertainty is a sign of inner conflict, and inner conflict, with time and tending, can transition to inner dialogue. 

    Affirmation: I’m capable of making decisions and seizing opportunities even when I feel some uncertainty.

    The new moon is here so I have a new tarot curated intention and affirmation for us to work with. I used the Modern Witch Tarot, and we pulled the Eight of Swords, the Knight of Cups, and the King of Wands. Be sure to have a look at the cards to see what they inspire in you. Let’s dive in!

    Intention: Sometimes we get constrained by plans. We tell ourselves we must stick with them, just to stick with them, and we forget the “why” behind the journey, the decision, or the goal. At times like this it’s helpful to remember that our motivations and desires are like a rudder on a boat, they steer the way. Periodically checking in with each gives us the opportunity to adjust as needed.

    Affirmation: My path is not laid before me; it is made by walking.

  • August 30th Full Moon Intention & Affirmation

    Send us Fan Mail

    The full moon is here so I have a new tarot curated intention and affirmation for us to work with. My mom requested that I use a more traditional deck this moon cycle, so I pulled out my tried-and-true Smith/Waite cards and we pulled the Page of Wands, the Ten of Swords, and the Six of Wands. Be sure to have a look at the cards at bloomingwand.com. Let’s dive in! 

    Intention: Trying new things, either for fun or for personal or professional enrichment is one way we learn and grow. Over thinking and planning, though common and relatable behaviors, don’t promote growth or clarity. It’s the doing, the action, and the stepping into the unknown that expands awareness and illuminates our path. A natural consequence of doing is learning. 

    Affirmation: Trying new things awakens a part of me that I’d like to get to know, no matter what expression it wears.
