“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
