“Protect your enthusiasm from the negativity and fear of others. Never decide to do nothing just because you can only do little. Do what you can. You would be surprised at what “little” acts have done for our world.”
Steve Maraboli
Hello, Lovelies!
July energies are all about authenticity. It’s a month of endings and beginnings that will help us move into better alignment with our true self, encouraging us to step out of procrastination and into action.
Keep that in mind as we explore the gifts that the oracle card INSPIRATION brings us this week. INSPIRATION is from Chakra Reading Cards: Ancient Wisdom to Balance and Heal by Rachelle Charman.
The Gifts Of The Week Ahead
This week connects us to creativity, inspiration and flow.
It’s a week to rekindle passion within relationships, and reignite passion or inspire you anew for projects, places and dreams.
If you’ve been beset by problems the energies this week will help you to find innovative ways forward again, or to discover solutions that will lift you out of stuckness and get you moving.
It’ a wonderful week for friendship and romance, and for lighthearted moments with the ones you love.
For those of you who are empathic, intuitive or psychic you’ll find connection easy, and the flow of messages and guiding wisdom will help you to see your way forward, highlighting directions and solutions that will be favourable and in alignment with the Highest Good for All.
You’ll find an abundance of grace and reasons for gratitude this week.
Supportive crystals this week
Citrine (pictured) helps us to bring the sunshine back into our lives, and to think with optimism and clarity! If you are ready to ask for what you need or to voice your thoughts and ideas choose a lovely blue Sodalite! Green Aventurine is the perfect happiness stone, helping to elevate our mood and our sense of gratitude for the everyday. Choose Rose Quartz if you need a boost of love, kindness and nurture.
Helpful Essential Oils
Geranium, Wild Orange, Sandalwood, and Lavender work beautifully on their own or in combination this week to help you move through doubt and back to a place of confidence and positivity.
As a blend for your diffuser add two drops of each oil. A drop of each oil in the bath is heavenly too. It’s a great blend to get you out of your head and into your heartspace. It promotes spiritual connection and intuition and is deeply calming. I love this oil combination, and it’s my oil of choice in my diffuser this week.
Freaking out or find yourself absolutely stuck in inertia? Rub a drop or two of Sandalwood over your heart and on the back of your neck to help reconnect Solar Plexus, Heart, and Crown Chakra, bringing you gently into alignment with your personal truth.
Colour and Cuppa Session Reminder
A reminder for you – our next free gathering online is tomorrow. You’re invited to join us, and so are your children. It’s a way for us to connect, heart-to-heart, as intuitive and sensitive souls. It’s a way for me to tune you in to the energies of the weeks ahead, and to give you some tips and teachings for dealing with that, and for building both your metaphysical and self-care skills.
Our theme this week is ‘Circles’. We’ll be talking about circles and orbs in their different forms as spiritual and energetic symbols, and as a tool for meditation and energy work. We’ll also be talking about relationship circles and circles as cycles in our lives, and the energies that ripple out from us or to us in circles.
The ‘Circles – Colour and Cuppa’ gathering will be at 4.00pm Brisbane time on Tuesday 21 July (which may be July 20 where you live). We hold these sessions every fortnight. To support people in other time zones we are scheduling these live events at various times throughout the year so you can find one that works for you. It’s completely free to join us, and we’ll be holding this gathering via Zoom. All of the details and the link will be in our Facebook Group, The Journeymakers, prior to the event.

Need To Find Your Mojo Or Start Your Creative Project?
These wonderful creative energies are not much help if you’re super stuck, in overwhelm or unsure how to start or finish something.
It’s been a rough year so far, with unexpected stress and changes to our daily routines shaking life up and putting even the most accomplished do-ers into the wobbles. But I want you to know that it’s not too late to finish 2020 stronger.
Goal Magic is an 8-week online coaching course I created to help you to develop strong habits, to chalk up some wins, and to create patterns of completion for projects and goals. It kicks off on Monday July 27, and it’s only $99USD for the entire 8 week course, which includes a series of bite-sized videos each week, weekly webinar and Q and A session (recorded in case you can’t make it), an active Facebook group with coaching and tips, and wonderful downloadables to get you organised. This is no pumped up rah-rah productivity course – it is gentle, practical and will get you where you want to go. Why can I promise this? Living with chronic illness I needed to create systems to help me get things done no matter how ill or brain-fogged I have been. My systems have helped me to conceptualise, plan, start and finish projects when I have been less than my best (think at home, in my pajamas, half dead!). So, if you are stressed, time-poor, feeling lost, or despairing that you will ever get anything started or finished (or you don’t even know WHAT to start, or WHY you stopped doing things that were working for you before) this is the course for you.
Come join us – you’ll be glad you did.

(If the $99 is out of reach for you I also have scholarships on offer – details here)
Enjoy the week ahead, and do your best to live from gratitude and hope. We can still create positive change in our lives, no matter how crazy the wider world may be,
Love, hugs and a sprinkle of magic, Nicole xx
Last week, I managed to be online during one of your chats. Your voice sounded so like what I imagined. Calm and peaceful. Like water trickling down a rocky stream in sunshine. So often, you have helped hit the nail on the head in my life. Needing to be kind to others and myself, being grateful for the help I have instead of whining for more, doing as much as possible, in spite of not having enough time. You are truly inspiring! Thank you-
A bloody great post
I love your posts Joanne – you say it as it is – and you often make me laugh.
