Send us a text When the night arrives early and the lists get long, we reach for warmth that actually restores us. This week’s journey moves through the Sagittarius new moon, the hush of winter solstice, and the approaching gravity of Capricorn season with a simple aim: reclaim joy without losing our center. We ask better questions—what does fun look like in real life, in short bursts, on a budget—and then we turn those answers into clear intentions for the year ahead. I share how Sagittariu...
Send us a text The darkest nights ask for the coziest magic. We lean into Yule and the winter solstice with the Nine of Cups as our north star, exploring how to treat yourself with small, meaningful rituals that fit real life. From fairy lights and tea to bookstore wanders and artist dates, we lay out practical, low-cost ways to keep your cup full when the calendar is packed and the sun slips away early. We also get honest about tarot study. Temperance makes so much more sense when you see i...
Send us a text The fire’s crackling, the mug is warm, and we’re settling into December with a tender, practical look at how to refill our cup before the holidays pull on every thread. Guided by the Queen of Cups, we explore emotional care that’s doable: tiny rituals you can weave into a busy day, moments of quiet that reset your nervous system, and the courage to choose what nourishes you even when the calendar is loud. I share what a rare stretch of true solitude taught me about rest and pl...
Send us a text Let's reframe Thanksgiving! A single card can change the tone of a week, and the Moon does exactly that. We unpack its call to intuition, shadow, and instinct, then weave those insights into a holiday many of us find complicated. Rather than sidestep the discomfort around Thanksgiving’s history, we name it and choose a grounded path forward: honoring the land and labor behind our food, practicing mindful eating, and building traditions that feel true. I share how tracking the ...
Send us a text If your heart already wandered to Yule lights or you’re still sitting with the Samhain veil, you’re not doing it wrong—cross‑quarter days are fluid by nature. Let’s choose the rhythm that keeps our practice alive rather than forcing a schedule that drains it. I unpack how I read The Tower for the collective—more wake‑up than wipe‑out—and why meeting change on purpose can soften the edges. Small shifts like taking a new route home or discovering a new artist prepare your nervou...
Send us a text We open the week with Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius and a surprising ally: the Knight of Cups. That mix of swift, heart-led motion and cosmic slow-down creates a paradox we can use—pursue what truly fills you while triple-checking the path you take to get there. We unpack the Knight of Cups as more than romance or daydreams. It’s the holy-grail focus that asks, What am I holding that deserves both hands? From there, we get practical. Expect travel snags and message mix-ups...
Send us a text The air still feels charged from Samhain, and that sensitivity can be a gift when you know how to work with it. We open by naming the subtle signs of a thin veil—tiredness, vivid dreams, and heightened emotion—and then get practical with simple cleanses that support your space and your body. From a two-for-one simmer pot and spiritual bath to smoke cleansing with doors open and rosemary hung at thresholds, we share gentle routines that make your home feel lighter without fuss. ...
Send us a text Candles in the window, laughter on the sidewalk, and a pumpkin that doubles as a spell—this Halloween week carries a strange, hopeful spark. We lean into that feeling and treat Samhain as both a doorway and a homecoming: a time to honor ancestors, tell the truth about what we’re releasing, and invite the Page of Wands’ fresh energy without making our practice heavy or performative. You’ll hear how to blend playful Halloween traditions with meaningful Samhain rituals—carving ru...
Send us a text The energy shifts this week—subtle, electric, and honest—and our bodies notice before our brains do. We start with a story about October sore throats and end with a clear map for reclaiming your voice, weaving together Libra’s new moon, Scorpio’s first steps, and a tarot pull that says you’re steadier than you think. If themes like the witch wound, throat chakra, and embodied magic have tugged at you lately, you’ll feel at home here. We unpack the Three of Wands as an anchor f...
Send us a text A book you can feel in your body, not just file in your mind. That’s the promise behind Spirit Crystals on audio—a hands-on guide to crystal healing, meditations, and rituals brought to life by narrator Leslie Howard, whose own practice deepened while preparing this recording. We share why learning by ear turns technique into embodiment: breath settles, cadence guides your focus, and you can move through rituals with your eyes closed and your attention open. Meet Your Spirit C...
Send us a text If you’ve been living like a hermit since eclipse season, consider this your soft nudge back into the village. We draw the Three of Cups and unpack what it means to step out of the cave—planning a coffee, catching a harvest fair, or simply FaceTiming a friend—so your energy can circulate again. From there, we shift into the heart of October: shadow work, ancestor tending, and a simple, no-fuss approach to everyday magic that actually fits into a busy life. We explore a grounde...
