Lived a magical girl and her magical ways

And each time she traveled from space down to earth

She bought a lesson for all humans and a chance for rebirth

Beatrice Delight was her name, but her friends called her Bea

And she had many powers, many things she could see

And she used these powers to bring earth more light

Because more light was needed, which she bought with delight

She would travel with her little dog by the name of Chickpea

A scruffy little misfit, just like her owner Bea

As she traveled from Mintaka, her home far away

A place where whales and humans would play

A planet where peace was the vibe of the land

And all was so pure, even down to the sand

With her long white hair full of crystals and shells

And clothes long and flowing made of pretty pastels

Her eyes were so wide and as blue as the ocean

Her skin scaled and freckled; her bag full of potions

For each journey to earth she’d use one talent each time

She trusted the slowness, and the need to be kind

And this time as she moved through space down to earth

She used her magical scaly skin for this work

As her feet touched the ground she saw faces of gloom

She sighed and yawned to help herself adjust to the room 1

People seemed nervous at first to speak to Bea

Perhaps they were concerned about what she might see

But to their surprise as they’d speak her skin would shimmer

And instead of speaking she’d turn into a mirror

And as they continued to share their woes and worries

Bea would simply nod with hushed tones helping build their courage 2

For Bea was not there today to offer advice or to see

She was there to help them be the earthling they needed to be

Each person had come with their own emotion or worry

Something they felt ashamed of or for which they felt sorry

As one person spoke of the shame that she felt

The mirror twinkled to show her how forgiveness could help

“Forgiving yourself is a hard thing to do,

Especially when those feelings live deep inside you.”

Another spoke of the blame she put onto another

And as her eyes caught the mirror she saw how she would recover

“The blame you point at others is still there within your bones

A shadow that’s been triggered, to call your soul home. 3

One person shared that she felt anger indeed

A feeling that made her hot headed and seethe

Sometimes the anger would build like a rage

And she’d let rip like an animal bursting out of a cage

“This anger you feel has been inside for some time

It’s not a part of your personality to cover and hide. 4

“That rage that you feel is asking to be unleashed

And the less you listen daily, the more you will see that beast

And as the room started to see the healing that can happen

They all lined up to remember what they had long forgotten

And one by one as they started to see

The emotions they came in with began to ease

Bea didn’t say all that much to each of them as they stood

And spoke of their problems to see if it did any good

One man came in looking all puffed up and arrogant

He’d attended a private school in a place he called Harrogate

Full of long words and explanations aplenty

When he sat at the mirror he saw himself in his 20’s

After a terrifying ordeal where his father passed away

He’d taken it upon himself to carry his energy this way

Needing to take on the load of the family

And big himself up so he could live happily 5

But as he stood still and saw himself in the mirror

It was his eyes that indeed started to shimmer

The release of the tears showed Bea all she needed to know

This was someone wearing a costume and acting in a show 6

“It’s ok, it is safe, to be who you want to be

You have nothing to prove, what is it you see?”

The man replied “I’ve lost the fun part of myself

I haven’t laughed in so long, thank you for your help. 7

And with that he broke out of his arrogant demeanor

Smiled and said thanks, knowing why he needed to see her

As he left the room he looked a lot calmer and lighter

Even his white smile shined a little bit brighter

Another person stepped forward to use her mirrored skin

Stating “It’s not very often I look at what’s hidden within”

A mind so full of self doubt and pin pointed control

Is a mind weighed down by the heaviness of it all 8

“Our brains are not there to overload them with baggage

When we expect too much of our minds we cause ourselves damage”

“A good way to think of your mind or your head

Is to imagine it as a viewing platform,” Bea said

“And instead of expecting everything to work out

You watch all the opportunities and options play out.”

“But don’t get caught in the trap of that same viewing mind,

climb down from the platform that turned your intuition blind. 9

“Make decisions instead from feelings or sense

Help your mind out and stop it feeling too intense”

As the lightbulb went on in the mind of that person

They realised they could live as a newly healed version

Their mind did not hold all the answers they sought

But their body had a whole heap of tools for them to resort 10

The final person on Earth that Bea saw that day

Was a woman who’d bitten all her nails away

She worried and panicked and breathed so short

That her body had started to shrink and contort 11

It was like she’d become a shell of herself

And constantly swallowed her cries for help

Always taught to be seen and not heard, never make a fuss

Had caused her to go within on herself and almost combust 12

Bea taught her to breathe before she looked in the mirror

So she could hold and feel the emotions she would see there

And as soon as the woman breathed three deep breaths

Grief lept from her shoulders and from her body it left

Just this simple action didn’t mean she was healed

But it meant she was finally able to feel

And from the feeling she could start to defrost and thaw

All the emotions inside her that were still so raw

“These feelings attach to memories I’d blocked out long ago,

I see now it’s time to begin processing the memories below.

“I can’t keep blaming others for what I feel

I see from the mirror that to feel is to heal.” 13

But no matter what other worries people lined up with that day

Beas humble ability to mirror was a gift from far away

“If earth beings could learn to listen and not react,

They’d get along better,” Chickpea agreed with a yap.

All they really needed to do was see themselves

But life on earth was so busy they needed Beas mirror to help

Someone to say ‘stop’ and shine a light on their darkest parts

To help them heal on their own and find their light in the dark

And as the day turned to darkness and the stars began to sparkle

Bea and Chickpea packed up their belongings without debacle

They hopped in their spaceship, content with the day

And flew off to Mintaka, their home far, far away.

Notes for messaging

* Did you know? Yawning isn’t lazy or a sign you’re tired, but a sign that your body is relaxing and rebalancing its energy.

* Stories told in safe places are as healing as giving any advice. Practice your skill of listening each day. Sometimes we say it best when we say nothing at all.

* Sometimes the most annoying things we see in other people are just a reflection of what we feel about ourselves.

* Emotions like anger aren’t part of who we are as a person. Sometimes we just need to feel the emotion and use it as fuel, rather than letting it bubble and boil.

* The emotions we show people aren’t always how we feel

* Sometimes we feel safe putting on a front or a show to others rather than just be honest with how we feel. This has historically been shown as being vulnerable and unsafe.

* Often when people are down they’ve forgotten how to have fun and do things like sing, dance and play. Life has become too serious and overwhelming.

* Our heads can easily become a mess of tangled spaghetti and we need to get better at draining the weight in there.

* We spend so much time in our heads trying to figure everything out that we miss the opportunity to just live from the rest of our body. To touch, to feel, to smell, to sense, to taste… we have so many other ways to make decisions and create safety, not just from our brains.

* Mindfulness is a fantastic practice for bringing yourself back to the body after periods of overwhelm. See, taste, touch, feel, smell and listen to prevent brain overwhelm.

* Anxiety can present in many different ways, but often it will look like shallow breathing, constant nail biting, and a heightened sense of alertness.

* People pleasing can harm our nervous system and create a false sense of safety. If you don’t want to do something and it feels unsafe, say no for you, not yes for someone else.

* Somatic healing involves moving and breathing through stored memories as a form of therapy. For most therapies and trauma healing there needs to be a feeling attached to a memory to clear it from our system and begin healing.

In the essence of remembrance, your Soul Map contains the full picture of who you are at your core, and how that journey is supposed to unfold through lifes initiations. It’s a reading of this purest version of you, taking into account the understanding of life, the nervous system, our ‘baggage’ and a map back home…

This is where true healing really begins. But you won’t find it on the algorithms… because you often can’t see it happen at all.

In this episode, I talk about the slow reality of healing and change - sustainable change - and how we can use Leo season as an example to see where the intensity lives, and where the true values of Leo energy come alive.

If you’re ready to walk slower through life, the Soul Map is ready to receive you. There are no quick fixes, 30 day triumphs, or intense experiences, just slow, steady progress to get to a place of inner strength and stability. It’s unsexy, but it works… Get yours at https://mysoulmap.co.uk/grab-your-soul-map

“I honestly feel like I’m stepping into myself more than I have ever done before.” Alison

A complex mix of people and backgrounds, cultures and generations melted together and told to find common ground. Extended family literally chucks you into a spiritual battlefield at times. But in the name of growth… I wanted to share this reflection from a recent family gathering, which taught me a lot, even all these years on with Human Design, about decision making authorities.

It’s not enough for us to just know our decision making authority.

We have to use it, and be unwavered by other people’s triggers, projections and baggage at the same time - compassionately, but with conviction.

You see, learning about your authority is one thing. Using it in peaceful settings where you know it’s safe is another. But using it in challenging situations when you could just easily revert to fawn mode, knowing full well when you open you’re mouth you’re about to get a projection of someone else’s wounds pierce you right through the chest… that’s another thing entirely, and it’s often the reason we don’t follow through with our authority. Not because we can’t. But because to do so will trigger others, consciously or unconsciously, and we don’t feel safe in that triggered moment. People, when triggered are, afterall, unpredictable. And our body senses that.

So when you use your authority…

Do you trust it even when you know it’s going to ruffle feathers?

And are you aware of just how triggering you using your authority can be on others? Not because you need to control their outcome, but because you need to stand in your decision with unwavering confidence to really advocate for yourself.

It’s a work in progress.

Where do you change your own decision to keep the peace with other people?

No matter how small it might seem (and it may well be in little ways) the problem is that it’s continuining to train your system that it’s not safe to stand in your decisions, and that’s a bigger problem…

“Flowers don’t bloom all year round. Trees don’t fruit every year. The tulip comes only in spring, the hedgehog sleeps the whole winter through. There’s a season for everything to excel, and so much of our suffering comes from trying to make it all summer. You are allowed a fallow season. You are allowed to brown like an autumn leaf and rest like a sleeping thing. That isn’t failure. That’s rhythm. Stop fighting the tide.”

Picture an orchestra. The musicians all read from different sheets of music. The oboe has its part, the flutes have theirs, the brass, the percussion. The notes are all different. But the timing is shared. And that shared timing is the whole miracle of the thing, because it’s what gives each instrument its moment to shine, to support the others, and then to fall quiet again.

Very rarely do all the instruments play at once. If they did, the sound would be unbearable. Too intense. Too much. All you’d hear is the loudest instrument in the room. Instead, the music moves like a wave — crescendo, decrescendo, silence, lightness, darkness. And none of those can happen at the same time. They take turns. That taking of turns is what creates the depth, the beauty, the journey.

The conductor doesn’t make a single sound. The conductor keeps the time. And that, I’ve realised, is what astrology does, and what I try to do alongside it. The cosmos is the conductor of the earth. Mother Nature reads the music and executes it, creating harmony and tension, the swell and the rest. Our only job is to play our part, in time.

But here’s what we’ve done in the modern western world. We’ve decided every instrument should play at full volume, all day, every day. Work and rest and play and grief all crammed into the same room at the same hour. We call it productivity. I call it orchestral mayhem. And then we wonder why we’re exhausted, why we’re anxious, why we keep falling ill. So much of our suffering, I’m convinced, comes from being out of time.

The planets are the hands of this great clock. The sun starts the cycle, the moon swells and softens it, Mars rushes us, Venus slows us, Saturn disciplines us, Jupiter grows us, the nodes point us toward what to hold and what to release. And reading that clock isn’t superstition. Jung understood the chart as a map of the psyche, the planets as parts of who we are. It’s depth psychology drawn in the sky.

So when someone comes to me worn down and out of rhythm, my work is to keep the time. To stop the clocks, sometimes. To rewind, to reorientate. To slow them down with sound and stillness and cacao and reflection, until they can hear the beat again. And then — and this is the real work — to hand the baton back. To remind them of themselves so well that they keep their own rhythm long after they leave the room.

Because in the end I don’t want to be your conductor forever. Your Soul Map is your own sheet of music and your own clock, all in one. It already holds your timing. My job is simply to teach you to read it. So you’ll never again believe you’re late. You’re right on time. You always were. That’s the ground beneath your feet.

This is a preview, not the full transit. The door opens now, closes in autumn, and opens properly in 2027, so whatever it’s surfacing in you isn’t a final verdict but a teaser, a first look.

In this episode I cover:

* What Chiron in Taurus tends to bring up, and why the rising of an old ache is not the emergency it feels like.

* The solstice, the instruction hidden in the word, and what it asks of us at the height of the light.

* And looking back at the last time Chiron was here - the Winter of Discontent, the Miners, and Covid as the most recent echo of a similar time, and ask the question underneath all of it: do you know who you are, underneath what you have? Because when the ground shakes, that is the only thing that keeps you standing.

Notice what rises. Don’t panic, and don’t fix. There is no rush in this transit. It’s time to learn to tell what belongs to the collective from what belongs to you.

In this Musing I follow one thread: every time Pluto changes sign, it squares where it used to be, and hauls up whatever that era buried. Pluto in Aquarius is broadcasting what Scorpio hid in the eighties and nineties. Pluto in Capricorn put the seventies on trial, right down to the same court rewriting Roe v Wade, fifty years on. I look at what Pluto makes a public enemy of in each age… tech now, institutions before, religion before that, and why it only ever vilifies a thing in order to transform it.

And then I bring it home, because this exact same square happens once in your own chart, somewhere in your late thirties or early forties, the moment your own buried thing comes up to be felt. It isn’t punishment. It’s initiation. And the wheel it sits on never stops turning, which, I promise, is the most freeing part of all.

That’s the question I’ve been sitting with for months, nay years, and the more I’ve looked at the research recently, the more I think we’ve been getting it wrong for about a hundred years.

Western medicine treats illness as a single moment, the day of the diagnosis. But the largest meta-analyses we have now are telling a different story. Loneliness predicts dementia twenty years out. Adverse childhood experiences predict autoimmunity forty years out. Chronic stress predicts almost everything, across decades.

The diagnosis isn’t the beginning. It’s the moment the body finally got loud enough to be heard.

This Musing is about what that means, for prevention, for alignment, and for the work of learning to listen sooner.

About the Soul Map

The Soul Map is a personalised document built from your Human Design and astrology, a reading of the specific shape of how you’re wired, where your consistent energy lives, where you absorb and amplify the world around you, and where your body’s quieter signals are most likely to surface.

It’s not a personality quiz and it’s not entertainment. It’s a map of your particular alignment and, in the language of this Musing, a map of where your specific accumulation is most likely to happen. The starting point for learning to read your own body’s signals before they have to get loud.

A note on the research: these are peer-reviewed meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and large cohort studies, primarily from 2023–2025. They represent the current scientific consensus on the long-term physical health impact of emotional wellbeing, social connection, and chronic stress. The framing of illness as an accumulation rather than an event, and of alignment as preventive medicine, is my own built on, but not equivalent to, the evidence base.

We feel bad, so we try to fix it. We try to regulate when we’re actually depleted. We rest when we’re actually dysregulated. We reach for the wrong tool and then wonder why nothing shifts.

In this Musing, I want to make a distinction that I think will help you in your self understanding: the difference between dysregulation and depletion. Between a nervous system in alarm… freeze, fawn, fight, flight, and cups that are simply running low or on fumes. Purpose, service, fun, maintenance.

They feel similar from the inside BUT they need completely different things.

And then underneath both of those, there’s the layer that makes it specific to you. Because your thresholds, your triggers, your what-fills-me and what-drains-me are not universal. They’re wired into your design. And the more clearly you can see that, the less time you spend applying someone else’s answer to your body’s question.

This one’s around 18 minutes. Make a cup of something and come and listen.

We have to look at the quiet rules we, as a society, are currently enforcing about who can do this work, rules that were never written down, never voted on, never examined, but that everyone somehow knows. The conversation around who ‘fits’ in these spaces, and who doesn’t.

Because here’s the thing, every value our spiritual communities hold up, every single one, falls apart the moment we start applying it selectively. You cannot preach authenticity and then punish someone for being authentically working class. You cannot talk about holding space for all of someone and then decide that the parts shaped by poverty or a particular postcode or a particular way of speaking are the parts that need to be left at the door. You cannot build a healing community on the foundation of secret rules about who is allowed to heal, and how that should look.

Compassion without judgement means without judgement. Not without judgement unless someone makes you uncomfortable. Not without judgement unless their background is showing.

What I want to see is simple, even if it isn’t easy. I want to see these communities actually live the values they profess. I want to see the woman with the affordable bowls given the same respect as the woman with the crystal set. I want to see a working class man’s way of holding space understood as a different flavour of the work, not a lesser one. I want to see people be able to CHOOSE who they work with, without being shamed. I want to see us get curious about our discomfort rather than cancelling its source. I want to see individuality genuinely celebrated… not the curated kind, the real, unruly, unpredictable kind that comes from actual human lives. From our STORIES.

The sacred has never cared about any of this. The plant medicines do not care how you hold them, as long as it with respect and care. And that is a FEELING, not a word.

These spiritual medicines, these plant allies have always been available to everyone. The question is whether we are.

Whether the communities we are building are as wide as the values we say we hold.

The healing this world needs is going to come from everyone. Which means everyone has to be able to get through the door. And everyone has the capacity to hold their medicine without shame.

The Soul Map is a 110+ page living map of life. Designed to meet you exactly where you are and guide you back towards yourself on that inner pilgrimage to self realisation, alignment and truth. Grab your map, join our weekly meetings for free, and let’s begin to build a world based on genuine, accepted authenticity… we need all kinds in all spaces. That’s how the world heals.

What we prime our minds to see, we see more of. And many of us don’t even know we’re stuck, because it feels like a ‘safe’ choice, rather than the right choice. Even though our version of reality is being constantly skewed by the things we see and hear, all around us, everyday.

This is a powerful reminder of the power of your personal choice and your mind, looking at exactly how the brain and body perceives reality and threat, and what we can then do about it to create collective positive change, rather than continue to be fed this soupy gunk from ‘above.’

The choice to change lies in your daily actions. Start with the things you see, you hear, and the soups you choose to swim in daily, and begin making choices that align to where you want to go, rather than where you’re kept against your will.

If you’re stuck in an old story of ‘there’s not enough’ and ‘now is not the right time’ there’s never been a better time to start changing that narrative…

In this musing I explore how the six profile lines in Human Design each describe a distinct neurochemical reward architecture - what your specific nervous system needs in order to produce the states we call purpose, meaning, and flow. We cover dopamine and the way each line finds its hit, oxytocin and the belonging chemistry of the relational lines, and serotonin and the quieter satisfaction of being correctly placed.

For the therapists and practitioners reading this: this framing matters in practice. Understanding a client's reward architecture changes the questions you ask, the goals you set, and what "progress" looks like.

Explore your own architecture with your Soul Map, or if you’re a therapist or coach, bring this into your practice through Human Design for Therapists which begins again in April 2026.

The question isn’t whether the weather is intense. It is. The question is: do you know where you end and the collective begins?

That’s what this episode muses on. Because without that self-knowledge, we’re just sponges. We absorb the fear, the grief, the restlessness and we call it ours. We make decisions from it. We spiral in it.

But when you know yourself, your design, your channels, your openness, your strategy, you can start to feel the difference. That’s not mine. That’s the weather. And from that place, you can actually be of use. To yourself, and to the people around you.

That's the gift of a Soul Map. Knowing yourself well enough to say: this is mine, and this isn't. In this Wednesdays webinar, we’re exploring these sponges - the undefined and defined centres. What’s mine? And what’s been absorbed? Join us at 6pm UK time - the link is in your Soul Map / email.

And the collective weather? You can check that daily now for free. Save this to your homepage. You’re welcome.

Plus, if you’ve got a Soul Map (new versions only), or you’re in the Bothy, there are new things to explore there too… Have a listen, see what you can share and make use of to help you on this wild planet we call home, and this extraordinary journey of life itself.

There is still a little more to be added, but for now, enjoy the updates.

Human Design for Therapists and Free Workshop: https://thehumblewarrior.co.uk/human-design-for-therapists-launch

If you’ve ever wondered how to stay informed without becoming overwhelmed, this one’s for you. And if you’re ready to consciously train your attention rather than be led by it, this is exactly the work the Soul Map was designed to support.

Question: What do you choose to engage with this week? And what version of reality do you filter?

Discernment is your friend this week.

This isn’t about tech glitches or missed emails.It’s about mental dissolution, emotional clarity, and slowing down enough to notice what you’ve been bypassing.

In this 20-minute spoken piece, I explore:

* What Mercury retrograde in Pisces actually symbolises

* Why confusion can be a form of healing

* How this transit impacts your nervous system

* Practical, grounded ways to move through it calmly

* The shadow patterns to watch (without fear-mongering)

* Creative and emotional opportunities hidden inside the fog

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by astrological headlines, this is not one of those fear mongering pop astrology updates… it’s grounded, real, and workable.

🖊 Journal Prompts

Gentle Reflection Questions:

* Where have I been forcing clarity?

* What feels unresolved but unnamed?

* What am I pretending not to know?

* Where do I need rest instead of resolution?

* What conversations need softening, not sharpening?

🌿 If You Want to Go Deeper

If this piece resonated and you’re realising that what you want isn’t transit advice but deeper self-understanding, here are two places to explore:

✨ The Soul Map

A personalised identity framework rooted in Human Design, astrology and nervous system awareness. It’s designed to help you understand how you process emotion, make decisions and move through cycles.

🔗 https://thehumblewarrior.co.uk/my-soul-map

Note: this will be increasing in price on 1st March as there will be live weekly webinars beginning to help you integrate this information from 4th.

🌲 The Bothy

A cyclical membership space where we live this work week by week, moving with the Sun/Earth rhythm, reflecting, integrating, and applying the astrology and awareness in real time, with rhytmn to the earth cycles. This space connects us to something wider.

🔗 https://thehumblewarrior.co.uk/join-the-bothy

You’ll learn how Human Design supports identity stability, what neuroscience reveals about self-trust and decision-making, and why integration not just information is the missing step for most personal growth journeys. We also explore how working with your personalised Soul Map helps translate insight into lived embodiment, creating a reliable internal compass you can return to again and again.

If this is landing for you, if something in your body has quietly recognised itself as I’ve been speaking, then I want you to know there’s a place you can take this work a little further.

This month inside the BOTHY, we’re exploring Money Archetypes - not as a something to master, but as a way of listening more closely to how money, pleasure, desire, safety, and the nervous system have been speaking through us all along.

The BOTHY is a rolling monthly membership.You can join at any point. You can leave at any point.It’s £25 a month, cancel any time, no pressure and no long-term commitment. If you’re interested in delving further into this, you can join here.

Rather than focusing on reinvention or new goals, this piece looks at resetting the dial: how to notice what your life is already asking of you, where effort has become unsustainable, and what’s ready to be lived rather than proven.

This is a grounded, practical Musing on:

* identity as something you embody

* desire versus real capacity (very Saturnian in lesson)

* relationships as mutual living things

* values as what you organise your life around

* small, precise adjustments that quietly shape the year ahead

It’s a transmission for people who don’t need more motivation but clearer alignment with what’s actually true for them now.

✨ Further work on Venus, money, and receiving

Throughout February, I’m sharing deeper workshops inside The Bothy, focused on Venus as a living concept with money healing, receiving work, and relational capacity at the forefront.

These sessions are practical, reflective, and oriented toward sustainability rather than self-improvement. It’s a community of like minded people, from all ages, races, backgrounds and walks of life.

You can find details and join The Bothy here. We meet weekly, and there’s always something to take away as a reflection or experiment for the week.

Reflection prompts for closing 2025:

* What did this year reveal about me?

* Where did I outgrow my old expectations?

* What am I stronger in now, even if I didn’t tick the box?

* What am I complete with?

* What version of me has expired?

* What do I no longer need to prove?

* How would the version of me I’m becoming close this year?

This new moon is an opportunity to re-do the last new moon. A chance to be even bolder, clearer, simpler and concise with your daily life and truly encourage supported action.

The world will get noisier on the lead up to this new moon as Mercury, the ruler of Virgo, opposes Saturn, leadership. Rather than fighting fire with fire, do something radically different. Use the mutable signs of Virgo and Pisces to dissolve the old and sculpt the new. It’s time - the world is your canvas. Paint and create.

I mentioned the Astrology workshop here for those of you confused by how you can find 29 degrees of Virgo in your chart.

And if this eclipse is feeling confusing, heavy, or you feel you need clarity, readings are bookable for October as I’m full now for September :) But the Soul Map is a great replacement for the time being to bring you back home!
