Hello, and Happy Imbloc!

Hello there,

I’m so delighted to connect with you this week as we celebrate Imbolc (pronounced im-olk), one of the eight sacred festivals in the Wheel of the Year. A warm welcome to all our new readers joining the community. This week, we come together under the Wednesday New Moon to honour the Life-force as the first stirrings of Spring emerge. Here in the UK, the days are growing lighter, and the promise of Spring Equinox, just six weeks away, fills the air with hope.

In this newsletter, we’ll explore the Tarot Horoscope for the month ahead, where an abundance of major arcana cards suggests positive change for those drawn here today. In Dear Joy, I respond to a heartfelt query about curses, offering reassurance and practical guidance. Even in dark times, when the weight of life feels overwhelming, it’s a gift to reach out and take the first steps towards the light.

Your Fotune Told, Tarot Horiscopes, & your month ahead unfolding.

This is the time I tune into your energy and draw a tarot card with you in mind. Please note, this is not an in-depth personal reading, but remember, it’s no coincidence that you’ve chosen to be here today. If your Sun sign doesn’t completely resonate, I encourage you to explore your rising and moon signs as well. Your birth chart is unique to you and may be balanced across the elements or influenced strongly by one zodiac element this month. Please take the time to meditate on your cards this month. I have clients that resonate with them as their shadow side and some even recognise  the character from their own life in them. This reading unfolds over the course of the following month from print, with a special spotlight on Aquarius as we celebrate your birthdays. I’m so surprised again this month that out of 12 cards 4 of them are major arcana, by the law of averages it should only be 2, as my readers manifest this is only good news and means your efforts are more than paying off.

Use this time to manifest abundance through gratitude and connection to the natural world. As your birthday month unfolds, lean into your grounded side to make thoughtful choices that align with your aspirations. Remember, you hold the power to cultivate the life you desire. Celebrate your accomplishments, however big or small, and let this be the foundation for more. Trust in your inner wisdom and continue building upon the abundance you’ve already begun to create.
