Hello, Lovelies!
This Quarter I am using the Queen Of The Sun Oracle by Stacey Demarco, illustrated by Kinga Britschigi, for my weekly oracle readings.
Our card to guide us for the week ahead is 16. MENTAL HEALTH (Beaivi).
2024 is a year for fresh starts, for creativity, healing and social connection. It’s a year for ambitious projects and for getting stuff done.
September was a month for healing the past, for moving beyond your old hurts and insecurities, and for creating changes that will lead to your life feeling and working better. October is a month for healing in all forms, for learning from the past and letting that help steer you towards your future goals and dreams, and for nurturing your Inner Child with play and self-care.
16. MENTAL HEALTH (Beaivi)
Often, the wounds and fears and hurts and misbeliefs of the past keep us stuck. Safe too. Or so we think. But definitely stuck. Stuck in that old version of who we were, or who we told ourselves we were, or where others told us how we were or should be, or could only ever be. That’s not actually safety – it’s simply a place that feels familiar.
This week we are encouraged to see those old hurts and misbeliefs for what they are – things that are holding us back.
When we shine a light into our darkness we can begin to break free of the past.
It’s a great week for insights around that. A time for self-exploration and forgiveness. It’s a week for working through things, for getting help, for having hard conversations, for allowing healing in. You’ll have the courage and the readiness to do this now.
It’s a week to check in with yourself so that you can manage yourself and your mental and physical wellbeing, and get (or plan for) the support, rest and nurture you need.
Expect that you may also get sudden clarity around making adjustments and life changes that can better support you, your wellbeing and happiness.
You’re precious. You deserve to live well, to be happy, and to have a sense of peace and freedom in your life. This week’s energies help you find better flow with that.
My Top Tip For The Week Ahead
Nourish your Inner Child with some favourite activities, foods, TV shows, movies, games and music of your childhood and teenage years. Give yourself permission to relax and have fun. Break some of your own rules. Play!
Crystals to support you this week – Carnelian, Labradorite, Smoky Quartz, Rutilated Quartz, Citrine, Tiger Eye
Ben and I have finally made it to Hawaii.
(And my 2025 Planners have made it to Amazon Australia, although they’re still receiving them so I can’t give you the link yet, and Amazon USA – where they ARE already available, and to my garage at home, ready for me to gift-wrap them and have them ready for ETSY and my new store when I get back home in late October – stay tuned for that and the full range of goodies and surprises we have for the year ahead that will only be available directly from me.)
Meanwhile, here in vacation land it’s so good to see sunshine again, and to be able to swim in the ocean.
I’ve noticed that the ocean here is REALLY salty, and the water is clear, clean and crystal blue. We’ve been mesmerised by bright green geckoes, and myriads of small pretty birds including Apanape, House Finches, and and Red-Crested Cardinals.
While I loved Vancouver and Alaska I am relieved to be finally free of the cold, fog and constant rain. I guess I’m just a blue skies girl at heart.
I’m also catching up on lots of sleep and reading. I had forgotten how soul-restoring it is to lie around with a good book for company. So, yeah, this holiday is working out well!
I hope that you find time for yourself and your own mental-health and wellbeing this week. Please give yourself that kindness and support.
Know that you’re still in my daily prayers and meditations.
Biggest love, hugs and Alohas, Nicole ✨💗🦋🌴🐠🍹💗✨
PS – Here’s a little peak at how pretty the 2025 edition is…
