“Time is such a crazy thing, a junction of every second turning into minutes then hours, and finally into a lifetime. More precious than gold, money, or talent. In the end, it all comes down to how long we still have left to live.
And it’s never enough. ”
― Ivy Oakes
Hello, Lovelies!
This Quarter I am using the Sacred Earth Oracle by Toni Carmine Salerno and Leela J. Williams, illustrated by Helena Nelson-Reed, for my weekly oracle readings.
Our card to guide us for the week ahead is TIME.
2025 is a year for pattern breaking, deep healing, mysticism and new directions.
March is a month for aligning to your dreams, a time of opportunity, creativity and possibility. It’s a month that asks for action, commitment and the courage to make yourself, your needs and your projects a priority.
TIME
TIME reminds us this week that our days on this earth are limited. Our resources are limited. Our energy is limited.
No-one wants to hear this, but it has always been this way.
TIME wants you to think about your life, and what really matters. Think especially about those dreams and projects you keep putting off until ‘there is more time’.
There’s never more time, only less. Each day we live is one less day in the hourglass of our lives.
So, embrace your dreams. Embrace what will make you happy and stop giving your precious limited time and energy to the things that suck you dry, that make you miserable, that chew you up and spit you out, that take you for granted, that fill in your day but give you no life or joy or energy.
Stop making others happy at the expense of yourself. You are worthy of happiness too.
What will you do with this one beautiful life? What fills you up? What makes you happy? DO more of that, and less of the other stuff. And if that means you have to turn your life upside down to do that, know that it’s time.
My Top Tip For The Week Ahead:
It’s a great week for big decisions, and for deep thinking. So, spend some time with yourself, talk to your loved ones, journal, pull a card, take yourself for a long walk. Be open to life being able to change for you, and ask the Universe for support to do so – then trust that you truly CAN change your life, starting now.
Crystals to support you this week – Amethyst, Moonstone, Amazonite, any fossil, Lapis Lazuli, Celestite
Here at the Treehouse we’ve been patiently waiting for Cyclone Alfred to be finished with us.
We’ve been fortunate so far. Some branches down, and a mess of leaves on the ground, but nothing major broken or damaged, unlike friends further afield who have had trees down, flooding, structural damage and gardens collapsing into rivers or onto beaches.
Cyclone Alfred has gifted us quiet time together, and lots of cuddle time, especially with the pupsters. Rufous hates it when it gets really windy and things start flying around, so he has needed extra care and attention. And he’s itching to go outside and run around in the mud. Us? Not so keen on that idea just yet…
I need time to catch up on sleep too.
With all the barometric changes and then the howling wind and stuff smashing into our windows it made it hard to relax and most nights I have been awake more than I have been sleeping. I’m doing my best not to stress about that, and have had some catch-up naps during the day, because the weather is so grey that the house is cool and dark.
I’ve been working on some writing projects, and have done lots of extra meditation. I’ve also been checking on friends and loved ones as I can, mostly by message, and sometimes just through a hilarious emoji and gif conversation. A sense of humour (even dark humour will do) is necessary at times like these.
I paused my Lyme Treatment for a few days, so that break has been gratefully received too. I didn’t fancy possibly being stuck in a small room with Ben and the dogs for hours while my head was in a bucket or I urgently needed the toilet. All things being equal I will start my regime up again today or tomorrow at the latest. I’m dreading it, but it has to be done. Like most hard things, you just have to play the long game and keep the end-goal in mind.
Wherever in the world you are, I’m sending love and wishing you well.
Hugs, soothing tea, and the promise of sunshine, Nicole xx
I’m just getting to this because it’s been that kind of week. I still haven’t pulled my weekly card. However, the line that stood out was this one “Like most hard things, you just have to play the long game and keep the end-goal in mind.” This was what I needed to hear today.
Hello Nicole.
I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your weekly emails. I don’t know how you do it but lately your emails have really resonated with me.
Within the last year we have moved from an immaculate house to one that needs a complete overhaul, my father passed away in November and in January, 2 weeks after the funeral, my husband told me he doesn’t was to renovate our new house now but actually wants a divorce because he doesn’t love me anymore in the same way that he once did. So it has been a really shitty time, my whole life and future plans turned upside down etc. We are keeping the divorce to ourselves until our sons have completed their education in June and are determined to make it as amicable as possible for the children but I dread telling them.
But, the main purpose of my email is to thank you because somehow your emails have helped me feel better about myself, I am starting to feel stronger and believe in myself that I can do this and I can move on with my life. It r went be easy but one day I will meet someone to spend the rest of my days with. In fact i now feel that “I am enough!”
I am thinking of you as you go through your extremely difficult health issues, whilst still managing to think of others and sending them love and care.
I am sending you love hugs and so much gratitude! I hope that there is light and hope for you in every day that you battle with your health.
Thank you !
Andrea xxxxx
Andrea, I am sending you the biggest hugs. Keep prioritizing massive self-care. You WILL get through this. And yes, you are indeed enough. Lots of love xx
oh wow, I picked “Time” last week from my Sharon McLeod faery magic deck, and I think I decided it was telling me I HAVE time, not to stress, LOL…I love the message you brought to it for this week, I’ve yet to pull my card for the week…will be interesting… Love hearing you having some reprieve from the Lyme treatment, and doggie cuddle & not too much damage around you – we have a broken driveway yet again but nothing we haven’t dealt with before & nothing else major Yay xxx
Good to hear from you. A cyclone and a treehouse seemed to me a dangerous combination.
