Just as something settles in me or lands to be written, another terrible event cycles through the news and unhooks me, casting me downstream again.

It is fast-moving right now.

More than we can digest.

Relentless unravellings and revelations.

Our bodies are not designed to process a 24 hour news feed of the worst of humanity.

Technology has developed faster than our biology and we are paying the price.

Withdrawing and curating the input seems like the only way for many of us to stay engaged and look after ourselves.

So many personal and collective trigger points are being sparked for women right now. Layers of anger, grief and relief. As my own felt memories of abuse, mysogyny, harrassment, shame and being gaslit rise in me it is scorching me to the core.

A dear soul sister passed suddenly this week too. Such a deep shock.

She is clearly needed elsewhere for this next phase of the fall of the old and the rise of the ancient new.

The grief is hot.

I know these times are unfathomable, my love.

The waves just keep on coming.

Those of you who feel so deeply will be reeling.

It is not selfish to retreat when needed. Inner signals heeded.

Your gossamer system requires heavier shelter than most, more stable stillness and peace.

Protect that peace where you can.

Your gift for insight, compassion, empathy, creativity and expanded vision will be so valuable and valued on the other side of this shift of ages.

As darkness is revealed the light can start to pour in.

It is the way.

Rage if it rises, rest if you need it, respond where you feel called, but know your devotion to truth, to awareness, to love, is enough.

You are enough.

It may not be your role right now to rush in. You might not be designed for front line activism or called to change the ‘system’.

Your activism may be in making, baking, loving, centering, rooting, channeling, grounding, deepening into nature, finding moments of joy, prayer, writing, remembering the lost ways, meditating, making magic, singing or listening to your intuitive nudges and acting on them.

This Moon releases the valve, the pent-up pressure, feelings that need to flow, be felt and set free.

This is not a moment for perfection.

It is a moment of expression.

Your energy literally matters.

Mattering.

Mothering.

Making real.

Midwifing.

Unhook from the drama when you need to. It doesn’t mean you don’t care.

Don’t be shamed by the memes or shaken by the extremes.

Hold true to your own centre, your own truth and your own values.

That will be your guiding light that becomes a lighthouse for others.

Just by being you.

MY OFFERINGS TO YOU…🌕 Around the full moon I share something openly…a short personal essay, a mystical message, a glimpse of unfolding art, whatever feels alive and present. These are free and available to all.

🌘 Around the new moon, in the sacred dark, I make a deeper offering to my intimates, my paid inner circle. That is where I share instalments of The Diary of an Awakening Woman — my serialised mystical memoir. I share full channeled messages and group tarot readings when they move through me, responding to the energies of the moment and of the circle. I share behind the scenes glimpses of my art practice, previews of new work, and the uncensored process of a woman returning to herself through paint and prayer.

💫 If I feel called to share something additional to this rhythm I will. Sometimes the muse and the Great Mother will not wait.

As the light of global awareness starts to shine in the darkest places, I’m here for my fellow seers and sensitives who have been holding so much and who knew about all this horror years ago.

I am here for the ignored, gaslit and so-called ‘crazy conspiracy theorists’, the ones who lost relationships, jobs, income and respect because what they knew about this world clashed so intensely with what others could allow themselves to believe.

I am here for those who are ahead of their time, not made for this world and who thought they were losing their minds when nobody else could see and nobody else would listen.

I see you.

I hear you.

Women’s power and women’s voices in particular have been stifled by an ancestral, cultural and generational scar called the Witch Wound that can make us afraid to step up, speak up or stand out. A wound rooted in the 300 year period of witch trials known as the Burning Times, where women (and some men) were accused of and killed for witchcraft.

They were just women. Women doing what was normal back then; using herbs as remedies, connecting with the rhythms of nature, midwifing babies into the world or simply finding themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time in an era when it was deadly dangerous simply to be a woman.

How many times have you felt your throat constrict or felt panic-stricken at standing up for yourself or telling truth to power?

How many times have you hidden your Tarot cards or not told certain people in your life about your psychic or spiritual interests?

These are just some of the signs of the Witch Wound in action TODAY in our lives and in our world.

The persecution of women, the deletion of women’s inventions, art, writings and teachings, the editing out of women in HIStory taught in schools and the bias in medicine. These are all wider societal symptoms of the Witch Wound.

I hope you find this meditation helpful.
