 Hey there,

Thank you for joining me again this week, and a warm welcome to new readers. One of the things I treasure most about living in the UK is the full experience of the seasons. While I may favour summer over winter at times, it's the rhythm of change I love — the reminder that life, like the Earth, is always moving forward. Some seasons I’m ready to release, others I can’t wait to embrace.

Today, Sunday 30th, the clocks go forward by one hour as we shift from GMT to British Summer Time (BST). We lose an hour in bed, but we gain longer, lighter evenings — with sunset now at 19:31 and sunrise at 06:37. The energy shift is palpable; spring is no longer waiting at the threshold, it's here.

Like many of you, setting my alarm at the usual time means I’m actually waking an hour earlier by my body clock — a bit disorienting at first. I ease the transition by heading to bed earlier the night before, and then relish the extra light in the evenings. It often feels like I’ve gained two whole hours to be outside with my familiar, Dolly, soaking in the fresh air and lengthening days.

It also feels beautifully fitting that this year, the clocks spring forward on Mother’s Day — a perfect reminder of the power and presence of Mother Earth in our lives.

As the month comes to a close, it’s time to see what’s ahead for our coven. I’ve chosen a new Tarot deck for this month’s reading — it resonated strongly with me, and I hope the artwork speaks to you as well. With nearly half the cards drawn from the Major Arcana, it's clear once again how powerful this collective is. We’re not just aware of our paths — we’re shaping them with wisdom and intention.

Your month ahead Tarrot Horriscopes

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. Please take the time to look at your cards this month, I have clients that resonate with them as their shadow side and some even recognise the character of their images from their lives. This reading unfolds over the course of the following month from print, with a special spotlight on Aries as we celebrate your birthdays.
