The Unconscious Super Conscious and Spirituality

There are so many parts of the superconscious world that were unconscious us. And I believe that this is where a lot of faith comes into play. Sometimes we can’t see the way. Sometimes we do need to trust in a force greater than ourselves and this is a really important part of spirituality.

Modern Spirituality and Sensitivity to Religious Beliefs

When I work with people, I always ask about their cultural religious beliefs. Some people are curious about if they work with the spiritual mentor, am I going to be forcing my beliefs upon them. This is certainly not the case. 

The spirituality that I have learnt and embodied runs through all religions. So I’m always culturally sensitive to ask my clients, what are their current religious beliefs, rituals, ceremonies, which words do they prefer to use.

The Unconscious Subconscious and Spirituality

When we come to do the healing work and create metacognition (awareness of our own thoughts and self limiting beliefs), we naturally start to come into Consciousness Awareness.

Consciousness Awareness is really the gateway to spirituality, because when, we are, at the very centre of our being this is where we can connect with the unified, field and energy of the universe, we take energy from that unified field, and that is ultimately what helps us to reprogram re-organise and empower ourselves.

How Do I Make Decisions When Parts Of Me Feel Conflicted?

A lot of time people feel that they are crazy because of all of the conflict invoices and conflicting parts that are within their body.  This can be a huge source of frustration as we try to navigate our life and make decisions that are best for us.

Spiritual Nutrition for Gemini Season

Gemini season is here. In astrology the element is air and the modality is mutable - so gemini is literally like a changing breeze. It’s ruler Mercury is related to the mind, so we can see this as changing ideas, changing the mind, wanting to do both “this” and “that”.

However we when become still in that breeze, it means we can receive a multitude of insights and intuitions we remain receptive, rather than active in our thinking.

Is a certain placement in Astrology ‘bad’?

Is a certain placement in Astrology ‘bad’?

I get this question almost every time I read a chart. People are worried that they have been cursed or doomed to not be happy and ask if a certain placement in astrology is bad.

If I have Venus conjunct Chiron am I doomed in love? I have Chiron in the 7th house, what does that mean I’ll always be hurt in relationships.

Mercury Retrograde - A Time To Lean In

It’s time to lean in. Mercury Retrograde is here and it signals a time to slow down and go inward, and listen. I love the symbol of mercury - with it’s little antenna receiving information and grounding into earth.

The yang expression of Mercury to me feels like picking up ideas and information from the outer world - the yin version is tuning in and being receptive to our inner space and inner landscape. Being quiet enough to listen, to receive.

Spiritual Nutrition for Aries Season

Aries is the first sign in the astrological zodiac, so coming into the season of this sign, it’s the start of a whole new astrological cycle as we journey through each other signs again. Aries is a fire sign so full of passion, enthusiasm. It’s energy is cardinal so it’s the start of something new, a pioneering energy with futuristic thinking.

From a Spiritual Nutrition point of view there can be a tendency to get stuck in the egoic part of our identity, but the flip side is that is is a rich time to be in our individual being - the eternal part of us that houses the gifts and talents that no one can take from us - just make sure the ego doesn’t get too carried away with these gifts and prostitute them for attention.

Spiritual Nutrition For Pisces Season

Pisces is a mutable water sign and the last sign of the zodiac. It’s mysterious, changing, intuitive, dreamy and imaginative - just like the changing waves of the sea and the deepest darkest depths of the ocean that we know nothing about. There’s so many other things we don’t know about - outer space, the stars, the depths of our psyche and dreams. People talk about these things at some level, but we really don’t understand them.

Meditation is a tool and gateway to explore our inner space - like pisces it’s mysterious, unknown and the journey is ‘mutable’ or different for everyone. Our meditation experiences can differ from day to day - they’re not something we can pin down, predict or plan. We just need to show up and see where our practice takes us…

What is Individualisation?

Individualisation is a process of coming back to our unique self, our gifts and talents, our individual way of thinking and how our energy and thoughts flow. We are not a "one size fits all", even though we've grown up in a society that treats us that way. Individualisation is feeling grounded in your true self, to make decisions form that place that really reflect you rather than the society.

Evening Wind Down Ritual

I love bedtime rituals to really signal to my body “it’s time for sleep”. At the end of the day I’m conscious to have a ‘wind down’ ritual. I put my phone on airplane mode in another room and then begin to have some lovely ‘me’ time.

How I use astrology as a Spiritual Mentor

How I use astrology in spiritual mentoring sessions to help you on your journey of being human. It’s so important we honour we live in duality - we are infinite and divine in our being, but we do also have the experience of being human and facing struggles, challenges and doubting ourselves at times. Astrology often points to us the times to dig deep and gives us clues how to do so, as well as so much more…
