Hello, Lovelies!
March is a month of creativity and inspiration that will propel us forward in new directions and where we can make major progress towards existing goals. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Self Masterybrings us.
This week amplifies the energies we encountered in the week just gone. These were the themes of Self-Love and taking Ultimate Responsibility for our life. Want a refresher? Pop back and read that post here.)
Self Mastery shows us that if something is important to us – if there is a result we seek or a problem we need to fix or a goal we want to achieve or a gift we want to share with the world – then we have to go deeper into that thing. We need to learn all there is to know about it. We need to fall in love with it. We need to make the thing so important in our daily lives that being half-hearted about or ignoring it or procrastinating or complaining endlessly about it can no longer happen.
Self Mastery encourages us to face our pain and take action. It encourages us to try or to try again. It is normal to fail often or to take two steps forward and one step back as we learn and grow.
Every time we fail we can ask ourselves ‘What did I learn?’ and ‘How can I do this better next time?’
Self Mastery also shows us that it is up to us to choose what we put our energy and effort into, and it is up to us to choose our thoughts, beliefs and actions. We are the ultimate authority in our own life, and choosing to live a purposeful life where we take responsibility for ourselves is the definition of true empowerment.
That’s actually good news!

Helpful essential oils?
Geranium, 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.
I’m passionate about essential oils and their capacity to support our wellness journey and our spiritual and emotional wellbeing. If you’d like to know more or want to source the oils I recommend and trust visit this site or contact me at channelnc@gmail.com
Wishing you a week of clarity, insight and purpose. I have so much faith in you to be able to become empowered and intuitively connected this week.
Lots of love, Nicole ❤ xx

“For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining is let it rain.” ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Hello, Lovelies!
March is a month of creativity and inspiration that will propel us forward in new directions and where we can make major progress towards existing goals. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Acceptance brings us.
There are two big themes to the energies of this week: Self-Love and Ultimate Responsibility. Acceptance shows us the wisdom of truly honouring the truth of our current circumstances. We might not like where we are at in our lives, or how we are behaving, we might not be happy with our choices, we may feel far from our goals and dreams – but Acceptance teaches us that the starting point for all self-love and all self-acceptance is to be present with the truth of where we are at right now in this moment.
Sitting in that place of truth (even if we don’t like what we see!) is empowering. It gives us a starting point and a place from which we can measure any future progress. Acceptance is the powerful energy of owning where we are at, within the framework of all of the other circumstances and relationships that impact our life.
This week take a little time to do an audit of your life. Where are you are with your health, your relationships, your money, your career, your goals or anything else important to you? Don’t judge or blame yourself for being where you are – that’s never helpful. Allow yourself to connect to the truth of your situation without emotion. It is what it is. Self-love can only come when we begin at this place of honesty with ourselves, and are able to love and accept ourselves DESPITE things within our current reality we would rather were different.
Acceptance also empowers us to take Ultimate Responsibility for our life this week. Ultimate Responsibility means that we stop blaming others, we stop finding excuses, we stop justifying or validating. We stop running ourselves down and trash-talking ourselves. Instead, we choose to accept responsibility for every single thing in our lives, no matter how we got to that place.
When we take Ultimate Responsibility we stop waiting for other people to change or to fix things for us and we empower ourselves to either 1) stop complaining and accept things as they are, or 2) make the decision to change what we don’t like and then take action until we get an outcome that is better than our current reality.
In the spirit of the Acceptance card and the gifts she brings what one area of your life can you take Ultimate Responsibility for this week, empowering yourself to make changes to give you better outcomes?

“ Necessity may be the mother of invention, but ingenuity is the bombshell of success”~ Phillip Gary Smith
Hello, Lovelies!
March is a month of creativity and inspiration that will propel us forward in new directions and where we can make major progress towards existing goals. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Ingenuity brings us.
This week Ingenuity encourages us to look at our current stuckness, because this is a week that supports getting UNSTUCK. So, where are you stuck? List it all down. Seriously. Take a sheet of paper or your favourite journal and write down all the areas where you are stuck or not making progress.
Is the house a mess? Can’t get a project finished? Given up on New Year’s resolutions already? Can’t move past the weight-loss plateau? Want to go back to work but want to be a stay-at-home mum too? Got a credit card debt you can’t seem to get on top of? Just can’t submit that finished manuscript? Still haven’t asked for that raise or applied for that promotion? Whatever it is, list it all down somewhere convenient that you can refer back to later.
Ingenuity reminds us that we are the Captain of our own ship and that one of humanity’s greatest strengths is to problem-solve.
Of course, we’re usually much better when the problem is someone else’s!
Now you have your list of areas where you are stuck, choose one.
Ingenuity also reminds us that we can’t keep using the same old thinking and patterns or action (or inaction) to create a different result. ‘Duh!’, I hear you say. But aren’t you currently stuck on something? Let Ingenuity help you find some solutions this week.
Imagine that the problem belongs to someone else. Imagine that they are waiting to read your possible solutions. They’ll be here in an hour (or ten minutes, or twenty, the timeframe is up to you as long as it doesn’t exceed 60 minutes – research shows we become ineffective after that much brainpower time has elapsed without a break) to collect your answers, so you can’t spend too much time on this.
Let yourself move from an emotionally connected space to a place of greater objectivity. How would you advise someone else to approach this problem? What solutions or actions might work for this situation? Brainstorm as many as you can.
Need extra help? Phone a friend. Google for solutions. Be innovative. Write down all the possible solutions or next steps you can identity within your time frame and then pick the best three, and number them 1 to 3.
Choose a solution or action step and get started.
As simple as that?
As simple as that!
Ingenuity is a human characteristic inbuilt in all of us, and it diminishes in direct relation to how long we procrastinate about something. Actively looking for solutions and commiting to a plan of action gives us momentum that pulls us out of stuck. That’s the message the Ingenuity card brings us this week.

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” ~ Rumi
Hello, Lovelies!
March is a month of creativity and inspiration that will propel us forward in new directions and where we can make major progress towards existing goals. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Healing brings us.
It’s a big week for emotional shift and clearing of old wounds and patterns. It’s also a week for lighting you on fire with hope and inspiration. Expect to have heightened emotional, psychic and energetic sensitivity.
All in all, it’s an incredible week for creating patterns of lasting change and for experiencing ideas and insights that can change your life. Expect that you may feel a little wobbly or melancholy early in the week, or that old issues may raise their heads right when you thought you’d finally dealt with them. But don’t worry – by week’s end you’ll be much better placed and feeling full of vitality.
Healing encourages us to take time to feel our feelings, to slow down and sit quietly with what’s happening in our lives and what that means to us, and to allow ourselves to seek help for problems that have overwhelmed us or brought us to our knees.
It’s okay to honour and feel pain, loss and hurts this week. It’s okay to acknowledge loneliness or sorrow or exhaustion. Don’t get bogged down in it all, though. Healing shows us that change is possible, that help is coming and that we are empowered to grow from the place where we find ourselves.
This is a wonderful week to have any kind of physical or emotional healing work done. It’s also an exceptional week for working with a coach, mentor or therapist to help you to understand existing limitations and to find ways to move past them.

Helpful essential oils?
Combine Basil and Bergamot Essential Oils for an uplifting and focusing diffuser blend this week.
Basil is a fabulous oil for motivation and for overcoming exhaustion and overwhelm. It will help with moving you to a place of emotional and spiritual renewal, and aids focus and concentration.
Bergamot’s complex citrus and floral aroma is one of the favourite ingredients in my French Earl Grey tea! As an essential oil Bergamot boosts optimism and confidence, and is relaxing and calming while maintaining energy levels. It also helps integrate healing on all levels.
Need an oil to enhance your creativity, and to help you move out of overwhelm or anxiety? Use Neroli by diluting and applying to your pulse points as a perfume or add it to your diffuser alone or with a couple of drops of Frankincense to bring back a sense of being grounded and connected.

Hello, Lovelies!
As we slide towards March let’s use these last few days of February well. February is a month for action and self-empowerment – for taking your plans and turning them into goals, action steps and habits. It’s a month for speaking your truth and standing your ground. It’s a month for creating positive change, embracing your individuality and investing in yourself and your dreams. It’s a short month that packs a big punch. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Creation brings us.
This week Creation encourages us to get into our studios or art spaces and get our hands dirty as we craft, glue, paint and create. Or maybe we need to write every day, build a garden, renovate some furniture, knit the start of a new sweater, pull our website together, create a course or bake up a storm.
It’s not a week for thinking about art or planning the art we might make in the future. It’s not a week for endlessly talking about the art in our heads or our hearts. No. It’s a week for MAKING and CREATING.
Expect inspiration.
Expect creative clarity to come as you work on things. Just get started. Flow will come later.
Expect to power on through with someting new or an existing creative project.
And if you don’t have a project to work on? Time to sign up for some kind of class that excites or inspires you.
Supportive crystals this week?
Blue Lace Agate supports your Throat Chakra, helping you to find your voice and speak your truth. It’s a great stone for all forms of communication, and it also brings a sense of calm. Sunstone helps you to sit in a place of abundance thinking so that you see the blessings and possibilities in your life. Fluorite taps you into your innate creativity, fires up your inspiration and helps you to be honest, objective and innovative with your work. Orange Calcite (pictured) connects you to creativity, inspiration and your heart’s desires and helps you to develop confidence in yourself and your dreams. Use it to help you see your first steps forward.
Helpful essential oils?
Geranium is brilliant for helping you relax, unwind and get connected to your creative and intuitive essence. It will uplift you and stimulate creativity, self-confidence and emotional flow – all energies that are great for shifting you into a more positive space. If you’re an over-giver and your tank is dry, Geranium oil will fill you back up again. Apply it to your pulse points at wrist, neck and over heart like a perfume. Place a few drops in your bath water. Diffuse it. One of my favourite uses is as a centering and inspiring pick-me-up. Put a drop in the palm of your hand, rub hands together and then inhale the aroma.

“ It is in the shelter of each other that the people live. -Irish proverb ” ~ Louisa Thomsen Brits, The Book of Hygge: The Danish Art of Living Well
Hello, Lovelies!
February is a month for action and self-empowerment – for taking your plans and turning them into goals, action steps and habits. It’s a month for speaking your truth and standing your ground. It’s a month for creating positive change, embracing your individuality and investing in yourself and your dreams. It’s a short month that packs a big punch! Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Shelter brings us.
This week Shelter urges us to look to the environment. What can we do to help protect and nurture this habitat in which we all co-exist? The earth is our one irreplaceable home, and if it becomes uninhabitable due to climate change, species extinction, deforestation, pollution, and water scarcity then all of us lose.
There are already many grass-roots organisations that are taking the initiative to create a more sustainable and green world. Or perhaps you could start your own.
Here are our favourite simple actions that everyone can take to help the planet:
Plant trees. If every person planted ten trees we would go a long way towards halting or reversing climate change. Also think food plants, balcony and indoor plants and plants with flowers that encourage and feed insects, bees and birds.
Reduce your consumerism, re-use and recycle.
Support a group (financially or with your time) that is already doing work with conservation, replanting and preservation of biodiversity.
Stop buying single-use plastic containers, especially bottled water. Use your own keep-cups and water bottles for hot and cold beverages. Say no to plastic straws and plastic bags.
Conserve water and electricity.
Shelter encourages us to make our homes places of safety, sanctuary and nurture. We need to do this for ourselves, but we may also be called to create that safe and nurturing space for someone we love, or to extend that help and support to a friend or stranger. Remember that animals and plants can benefit from us creating those places of sanctuary for them too.

Petrified Wood (pictured) helps you connect to the energies of ancient forests, grounding and calming you and helping to reduce stress, anxiety and inflammation. Green Aventurine supports you to be playful, joyful and optimistic about life.
Helpful essential oils?
Choose any of the following oils or combine them for a diffuser blend to help you create a sense of sanctuary at your home or office: Vetiver, Geramium, Lavender and Bergamot.
Vetiver is one of my favourite oils. It has a woodsy, earthy fragrance that is very calming and grounding. It will help you to concentrate, soothes anxiety and helps your thoughts become more structured and logical. Geranium helps with creating a sense of safety and is a comforting and supportive oil. Lavender calms an over-busy or stressed mind and opens you to possibility. Bergamot reconnects you to joy, creativity and hope.

“A vision without a strategy remains an illusion.” ~ Lee Bolman
Hello, Lovelies!
February is a month for action and self-empowerment – for taking your plans and turning them into goals, action steps and habits. It’s a month for speaking your truth and standing your ground. It’s a month for creating positive change, embracing your individuality and investing in yourself and your dreams. It’s a short month that packs a big punch! Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Strategy brings us.
This is an important week. It’s a week for bravely committing to change. It’s a week for boldly choosing a goal, a direction, a potential outcome and then working towards that.
Strategy shows us the need for thinking deeply about HOW we will make this happen, and for breaking our bigger tasks down into bite-sized pieces. We need to play the long game, thinking about our future self even as we live day-by-day.
Strategy also reminds us that someone has already done the thing we want to do, or something like it, so we don’t need to reinvent the wheel. It’s a powerful week for mirroring the good example set by mentors, coaches, individuals or companies whom you’d like to emulate.
The key questions to ask yourself this week:
What goals, projects or outcomes do I want to achieve this year or in the next few years?
What are the major action steps that will take me from where I am now to my end goal?
How can I break those action steps down into even smaller tasks and goals?
What bits can I do myself?
What bits will need help? And who can help me with that?
What is the most logical/sustainable/sensible/practical order for me to undertake these tasks?
How will I celebrate my minor and major milestones of accomplishment?
Then take your answers and create your STRATEGY – your plan for achieving these things in your life.
Apply that strategy, tweak and refine it as you go, rest if you need to, and don’t give up. If you work that plan, progress is assured.
Strategy is no good unless it is actioned, so your final question for yourself is: ‘What baby step can I take today that will move me toward my bigger goal?’
DO that thing. Then find another baby step. DO that one. Keep going. You’ve got this!
Supportive crystals this week?
Blue Lace Agate supports your Throat Chakra, helping you to find your voice and speak your truth. It’s a great stone for all forms of communication, and it also brings a sense of calm. Sunstone (pictured) helps you to sit in a place of abundance thinking so that you see the blessings and possibilities in your life. Pyrite promotes confidence, good decision-making, courage and the ability to embrace your potential. Fluorite taps you into your innate creativity, fires up your inspiration and helps you to be honest, objective and innovative with your work.
Helpful essential oils?
Choose any of the following oils or combine them for a diffuser blend to help you focus, think clearly and structure your ideas and information: Vetiver, Lemongrass, Lavender and Cypress.
Vetiver is one of my favourite oils. It has a woodsy, earthy fragrance that is very calming and grounding. It will help you to concentrate, soothes anxiety and helps your thoughts become more structured and logical. Lemongrass helps with being open to change and for pattern-breaking. It’s a beautiful oil to diffuse to promote fresh and positive mental perspectives. Lavender calms an over-busy or stressed mind and opens you to possibility. Cypress will improve your mental focus and clear away those cobwebs in your brain, helping you to problem-solve and work effectively.
I’m passionate about essential oils and their capacity to support our wellness journey and our spiritual and emotional wellbeing. If you’d like to know more or want to source the oils I recommend and trust visit this site or contact me at channelnc@gmail.com

Hello, Lovelies!
February is a month for action and self-empowerment – for taking your plans and turning them into goals, action steps and habits. It’s a month for speaking your truth and standing your ground. It’s a month for creating positive change, embracing your individuality and investing in yourself and your dreams. It’s a short month that packs a big punch! Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card New Beginning brings us.
January was a month of planning, of identifying what we want more of and less of in our lives OR of being shown that by the Universe getting right up in our faces and poking her bony finger in our breastbone as the world fell apart around us while saying ‘Do you get it yet?’ (Hopefully, your answer was yes!)
We can’t keep repeating the same old patterns this year. We don’t want to. We can’t afford to. So here is February to help us get firmly on a better path – one that truly supports our goals, dreams, talents and wise inner self.
The week New Beginnings urges us not to quit on the things we started in January and where we’ve already fallen off the wagon. Broke your diet already? Make a list, do a shop, plan and pre-prepare your meals and start again. Slept in instead of going to the gym? Start again tomorrow. Meanwhile, don’t cave, decide you’re a loser and eat an entire tub of icecream. NO. You’ve got this. It’s normal to be wonky when we are trying something new. So you missed the early-morning gym session? Go for a walk. Hydrate. Decide to do better. Haven’t even begun to tidy the mess that is your home? Go pick one drawer, in one room. Or tackle the dirty dishes in the sink. Take a photo of ‘the before’. Tidy it. Take another photo. Compare the two. Remind yourself that progress is possible and that even the tiniest of steps forward is still a step forward. Lots of tiny steps and suddenly you’ll be a long way forward from where you are right now.
New Beginnings helps us to understand that the hardest part of change is committing and getting started because we don’t have any momentum yet, and the results of decisions and actions (or lack thereof) we made yesterday are all we can see. Don’t let your current circumstances dictate your future. Declare self-sovereignty, pick something and just make a start.
New Beginnings also reminds us that between the periods of doing and busy-ness we need to rest, to recharge and to have some fun. Change, healing and help for us and our dreams are all possible. Balance is everything this year and slow and steady will give lasting benefits over big efforts followed by crash and burn. You KNOW this is true so take it to heart. Be done with working and living unsustainably. Take time to build nurture and meaning into your daily life.
Need help to get started? Find a class, coach, course, buddy or mentor to provide support and motivation. (Unless that’s another one of your procrastination patterns, in which case just get on with it!)

“Listening is about being present, not just about being quiet.” ~ Krista Tippett
Hello, Lovelies!
January is a month for planning, and for becoming clear about what matters to you. It’s a month for prioritising, honouring your heart and putting routines and acts of self-care into place for the year ahead. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Listen brings us.
In today’s society there is so much pressure upon us to impress, to succeed, to be noticed and thought well of. We’re praised for pushing through, for not making waves, for not crying or falling apart. We’re led to believe that we need an Instagram-worthy life and encouraged to seek out or create those moments. We’re pushed to get a better job, a bigger house, fancier tech and more peak experiences, and to make sure we provide those for our children while protecting them from the dangers of the world. Meanwhile, anxiety, depression, social disconnection and loneliness are at an all-time high.
Which begs the question, What if most of what we have been told will make us happy is wrong?
Listen shows us that no matter how lost we may feel there is always a part of us that knows what will help us to feel better. There is always a wise part of ourselves that knows what truly matters in our life, and in the wider world.
Listen brings us life-changing wisdom this week. It encourages to tap into our feelings of vague uneasiness, insecurity, boredom, resentment, unhappiness or discontent. These are surface emotions – red flags we can follow to get to a deeper truth. All we need to do is keep asking ourselves Why do I feel this way? and then get quiet and wait for answers and insights.
Listen is about doing Soul Work – about caring enough for ourselves that we get off the mind-numbing treadmill of busy-ness and habit, and start tuning in to our Soul’s truth.
Expect to get greater clarity about your relationships, career, health and life direction as you tune in to your inner voice.
Listen is also about being present with those around us. It’s about taking the time to be in the moment with them, opening ourselves to the deeper truths in what they are trying to share with us so that we can help them to feel more understood. Which in turn helps us to understand ourselves better too. It’s a beautiful week for reconnection, for beginning a new and better dialogue, and for embarking on healing old hurts and misunderstandings with the ones you love.
Supportive crystals this week?
Green Jade works with your Heart Chakra to bring balance and integration of Body, Mind and Spirit. It is positive and nurturing, strengthening self-worth. Citrine supports your Solar Plexus Chakra and sense of identity. It is a stone of abundance, clearing blocks of low self-worth and creating flow. Turquoise (pictured) encourages empathy, compassion and the ability to slow down and stay grounded. Amethyst helps you to let go of emotional baggage and invites positive personal and spiritual transformation.
Helpful essential oils?
Basil will help with moving you to a place of emotional and spiritual renewal, and aids focus and concentration. Frankincense helps shift grief and trauma, and centers you in your intuitive wisdom. Wild Orange uplifts mood and replaces anxiety with a grounded optimism. It’s my favourite oil to use when I am anxious or feeling flat. These oils can be diffused on their own or in combination.

“ Live simply, so that others may simply live. ” ~ Mother Theresa
Hello, Lovelies!
January is a month for planning, and for becoming clear about what matters to you. It’s a month for prioritising, honouring your heart and putting routines and acts of self-care into place for the year ahead. Keep that in mind as we look at the gifts of inspiration which the card Simplicity brings us.
This week we’re reminded that what we focus on multiplies in 2019. We can focus on our problems or we can focus on solutions. We can focus on what we lack or what we already have. And in every situation, Simplicity guides us to choose a less complicated and simpler life. So much of our life is crammed with stuff, and with busy-ness. No wonder most adults (and sadly so many children too) feel overwhelmed by their day-to-day lives. This week look to where you can let go of commitments and obligations that make your days over-full. Look for where you can simplify your possessions and your spaces too – both at work and at home.
Create some breathing space for yourself. Clean your living spaces and your work spaces. Clutter distracts and de-energises us.
As we move into better alignment with our inner truth and soul direction, thanks in part to this fabulous lunar eclipse energy, Simplicity encourages us to strip back our days, to find some space for ourselves and our loved ones and for the activities that rejuvenate and nourish us.
Some of the best things in life truly are free – friendship, laughter, a walk on the beach, playing with your kids or pets, curled up with a good book or watching a sunrise. Simplicity urges us to make room for those things this week.

Turquoise encourages empathy, compassion and the ability to slow down and stay grounded.
