Your Best Will Always Be Enough

Usually at the outset of a new month I have a big burst of energy. There is something about turning the page on the calendar that feels refreshing and uplifting and while I won’t say that none of that new month optimism is present for me at the moment, it would be dishonest of me to pretend that it is not coupled with a great deal of weariness. The cumulative strain and grief of a full year of navigating a pandemic, some recent news from a doctor that was not devastating, but certainly left me shaken, and the uncertainty about what lies ahead for me and for us finds me arriving at this new month with a little less vigor and pep than is typical for me. And I’ve decided that that’s okay.

As someone who, more than anything, wants my legacy to be one of uplifting others who are struggling, I often find myself walking a fine line with what I share with my community here online. I, of course, want my words and images to bring hope, inspiration, and nourishment to anyone who comes across them, but I am also committed to being real and honoring the full spectrum of my/the human experience. If you’ve been following me for any length of time you know that I do not have any interest in bypassing or toxic positivity. 

And so, my message for the beginning of this month is a tempered one and draws from a lesson that my father gifted me with when I was in 6th grade. It was a tough year for me. Up until this last year I would have said it was the toughest year of my life. My home life was chaotic and overwhelming that year and for the first time in my academic career, my grades suffered to the point that my report card required a parent’s signature. As I handed the report to my father, my hands shook. I was ashamed and also scared of what his reaction might be.

He reviewed my grades and then looked at me and calmly asked, “Did you do your best?”

I answered “yes” honestly as tears welled up in my eyes and then he placed his giant bear paw hands on my shoulders and said, “Then, I’m proud of you.”

I broke down into sobs of relief and some other feeling that I still can’t quite name.

To know that it was enough, that I was enough, despite the ways I felt I had fallen short, shattered me.

I have thought about that moment so much over the past year and especially in the past handful of months, none of which has looked anything like I would have hoped. 

There have been days where I have been able to create meaning and purpose out of these odd times, but there have also been days where I have struggled to hold myself together or do anything of substance at all. On the days where I’m in the latter experience, I have noticed the voice of my inner bully piping up, telling me I should be doing more, or that I should be handling things better. And then, I remember the question my father asked me and I ask it of myself: Am I doing my best? 

And as long as the answer is yes, I take a deep exhale and begin the practice of releasing myself from the grips of shame and not-enoughness. 

Some days, our best is what we envision it to be. For me that looks like taking good care of my mind and body, showing up in my power and light, and engaging in meaningful work that serves both myself and others. 

But some days, our best just looks like making it through. And whatever that looks like for you, please know that you deserve grace on those days, too.

As I look to this new month ahead, in this wildly strange time, I don’t feel the need to set any big goals or place high expectations on myself. The only thing that I am asking of myself in this moment is that I do my best. And my hope for myself, is that I truly know in my heart that it’s enough, that I am enough. I hope you know that you are, too.

Weekly Forecast Monday July 27th, 2020

Monday 7/27 – Black Panther Reversed - Surrender. You were never in control anyway and all that energy you’ve been spending trying to push and force your will is only leaving you drained. When you let go of how you think things are supposed to be, you open up space for Spirit to come through and show you possibilities you never could have imagined. If you stay present and curious, you’ll be more than capable of handling anything that comes your way, regardless of whether you had a plan in place or not. 

Tuesday 7/28 – Owl - There are some things in life that can’t be solved or figured out with logic. Today you’ll likely encounter an experience that doesn’t quite add up on paper and the more you try to figure it out with your mind, the less you’ll actually understand. Instead, tune into your subtle senses. What is your gut telling you? Sometimes we can feel the truth of a situation before we ever have any sort of concrete proof. Trust your inner knowing, always, but especially today. 

Wednesday 7/29 – Horse Reversed – If you’ve been feeling disconnected from Spirit you’re most likely also disconnected from yourself. We often think of the spirit world and the physical world as two completely separate entities but the truth is that they are absolutely intertwined and much of the way we receive guidance from Spirit is through our bodies. If we are ungrounded or disassociated, it can be much more difficult to tune into our intuition, so take some time today to come back home to your body, your breath, and your steadily beating heart. Lie on the earth. Breathe deeply. Move in ways that feel nourishing. Once you’ve reconnected to your physical experience, you’ll be much more able to receive intuitive messages and the guidance that will most serve you on your journey. 

Thursday 7/30 – Antelope  – That thing that you’ve been thinking about and wanting to do, but just haven’t felt quite ready for yet? No more waiting. Whether you take a tiny first step or dive all the way in, there will never be a better moment to begin than right now. You may not be able to see the full path laid out in front of you, but with each step, the way forward will become illuminated. Make your moves slowly and mindfully if need be, but by all means, make your moves. 

Friday 7/31 – Buffalo Reversed – We can pray all day and all night, but if we don’t also keep our eyes and heart open, we might miss the very blessings that are being sent our way. Today we are asked to both ask for support, either from Spirit or from those around us, and then to also practice being receptive. Sometimes help comes in the most unlikely forms so don’t be surprised if you receive what you’ve been asking for from a stranger, from unusual circumstances, or possibly even from a grace that you experience internally. You may even find that what you’ve been calling in has actually been right under your nose all along and all you had to do was tune into the abundance you already had.

Saturday 8/1 – Armadillo – Boundaries aren’t something we can set once and never tend to again. As beings that (hopefully) are constantly growing and evolving, our relationship with our boundaries should be constantly shifting as well. Take some time today to check in on how your relationship with boundary-setting is or isn’t serving you. Are your boundaries so rigid that they tend to limit your ability to create intimate connections with others? If so, where can you soften them while still honoring your own needs? Or, if you find that you often experience resentment or feelings of being taken advantage of, you might want to look at where you can strengthen your boundaries, not only with your words but with your actions as well. Check in. Tweak as needed. Rinse and repeat often. The more you maintain a steady practice of feeling into what is and isn’t working for you, the easier it will be for you to create happy, healthy, and sustainable relationship dynamics. 

Sunday 8/2 – Opossum – Do your best to stay away from any combative or chaotic energies today. Even if someone is trying to antagonize you, your best bet is to stay non-reactive and let them spin out any energies they’re needing to release. Whatever you do, don’t take the bait. Instead, take some physical space if you can or at least tune inward and focus on your ability to create peace internally through grounding breath practices, mantras, or anything other tools that support you in staying centered. Once the energy settles down, you’ll have a much better change at having a productive conversation and it’s possible that the issue may resolve on its own once the other party has time to sort through their side of things.

Weekly Forecast Monday June 22nd, 2020

Monday 6/22 – Skunk - Notice the relationship between the energy you put out into the world and the reflection of yourself you see in others. If you find that there’s a pattern in the types of dynamics you have in your relationships or that you keep having similar experiences with a variety of people in your life, ask yourself how you are contributing to those circumstances. That’s not to say that you are responsible for how other people show up, but when you realize that aspects of our own shadow can often be mirrored to us by others it’s much easier to uncover the places where we still have healing to do.

Tuesday 6/23 – Bear - Take some time away from any unnecessary stimuli today and drop into stillness. That could be through a 5-10 minute meditation, an afternoon out in nature, or maybe even some time for stream of consciousness writing. Your intuition may have an important message for you right now, but if you don’t create space for quiet, the din of your day to day life might drown out that wise but often soft inner voice. Taking this time to tune in can be especially important if you are struggling with a problem or have been feeling a bit lost. Don’t underestimate the guidance that can come through during dream states as well. If there’s something you’d like clarity around, set that intention before going to sleep tonight and be sure to keep a journal near your bed so you can write down any messages that come through upon waking.

Wednesday 6/24 – Dog – Sometimes it can seem like we have to choose between being true to ourselves and showing up in a way that suits others, but the truth is that the best thing you can do for the people in your life is to be the most authentic version of yourself. It is only when you are truly loyal to your own heart that you can honor the validity of the needs and desires of others in a compassionate way. If you’ve been feeling torn, come back to your own center, uncover what’s true for you, and then care for yourself around that as lovingly as you can, while holding space for the people around you to do the same. 

Thursday 6/25 – Alligator  – A major part of any personal growth or spiritual journey is integration of the lessons we learn as well as the parts of ourselves that we uncover as we gain self awareness. It’s important to remember that, particularly if we are integrating parts of our shadow or experiences that we might feel shame around, compassion is a vital part of the process. Even the most difficult and painful moments in our lives can offer us the gift of wisdom and expansion if we only have the courage to sit with and process our experiences, and then ultimately do the work to heal.

Friday 6/26 – Hummingbird – Joy is a birthright for each and everyone of us, but it is so easy to forget amidst the grief and chaos of the world. Today, come back to yourself through simple, grounding pleasures like getting a good stretch, a delicious meal, snuggles with someone you care about, a relaxing bath or shower, or placing yourself in the presence of beauty. The key here is to really allow yourself to be present to the visceral gratitude you receive from the experience and to let that nourish you from the inside out. 

Saturday 6/27 – Raccoon  – We all need a helping hand from time to time and today it’s your turn to show up and pay it forward. Look around in your community and notice who might be struggling or who could simply benefit from a little extra support. Offer whatever you have in abundance, whether that’s time, money, social capital, or supportive words and energy. Just make sure that you’re helping in a way that serves to empower rather than create a sense of dependence or helplessness.

Sunday 6/28 – Elk Reversed – It’s time to slow down, to rest, and to get realistic about what you're actually capable of doing in a 24 hour period. If you’re running at a frenetic pace and feeling overwhelmed or exhausted, doing more and faster isn’t the answer. Find a pace that allows you to still honor your needs and wellbeing and then focus on being consistent rather than trying to cram as much productivity in as you can. In the long run, you may find that you actually get more done this way and you’ll be much more likely to enjoy your accomplishments if you haven’t broken yourself down, in body or spirit, on the way to achieving your goals.

Weekly Forecast Monday June 15th, 2020

Monday 6/15 – Elk – Take a beat today and check in with your body, your mind, and your spirit. Are you feeling frenzied and frenetic? Overwhelmed? Or simply worn out? If so, it’s time to slow things down. Incessant grinding has been over-glorified in our modern culture and it’s leading many of us to place achievement over our basic needs and wellbeing. Are you going to enjoy crossing whatever finish line you’re running so quickly towards if you’re broken down physically or emotionally by the time you get there? Most likely not. So take a deep breath and recalibrate in whatever ways you need to so that you can move towards your goals in a more sustainable way. 

Tuesday 6/16 – Weasel Reversed - We humans are trucky creatures and can get ourselves tangled up in our own messes if we’re not thoughtful about how we move through the world. This can be especially true in relationship dynamics and is why it’s important to check ourselves regularly on why we’re doing the things we do and saying the things we say. Watch out for the tendency to be manipulative today. While we often think of manipulation as a malicious tendency, the truth is we all do it from time to time when we want something but don’t want to have to ask for that thing directly. It can seem oh so innocent to try to guide someone into giving us what we want but that is a subtle way of operating without consent. Instead, be straight-forward and transparent and make any requests you have in a clear way. This will help sidestep any risks of confusion, resentment, or breaches of trust and if you end up getting your wishes granted, then you can sleep easier at night knowing that you didn’t take anything that wasn’t truly offered to you.

Wednesday 6/17 – Porcupine Reversed – Of course it’s important to be discerning and to protect yourself in the face of harm, but has your fight or flight mechanism gone into overdrive? Rather than picking and choosing who can get close to you, have you created a spiky aura that blocks you from any and all connection? This might make you feel a bit safer for a short time, but staying constantly on guard will drain you and depriving yourself of loving connections will leave you feeling empty. Work at the edge of your comfort zone today. Tune into your energy field and see if you can soften into a more receptive and open-hearted state of being. Use your breath to relax your body and mind, release any resentments that have kept you bitter, and take whatever brave steps you can, no matter how small, to start to allow love into your life. 

Thursday 6/18 – Ant Reversed  – Patience isn’t just about waiting; it’s about how we carry ourselves while we wait. Rather than stewing in frustration, future-tripping, and angst, focus on what you can do during the delay. Maybe that means digging into another project or working on other aspects of the goal that you’re currently feeling stalled on. Perhaps it simply means taking a momentary break to dive into some self care and simple pleasures. Either way, there are treasures to be found in the present moment and releasing the desire to be anywhere else but right here, right now is the key to finding them. 

Friday 6/19 – Badger – Just because a lot of messages are coming through this week around pacing ourselves and patience doesn’t mean that we should give up on any of our dreams or goals. Stay committed to your pursuits by showing up for consistent and sustainable action and remind yourself often why you started. If you need to step back and assess the potential to approach your goals from a different angle, do it! Just whatever you do, don’t give up on the things that truly matter to you!

Saturday 6/20 – Armadillo  – When Armadillo shows up, it’s a reminder to check in with our boundaries and to look at where we fall on the spectrum between overly rigid boundaries and overly soft or non-existent boundaries. And don't forget that just because a certain boundary worked for you yesterday or last week that it is still exactly where it should be. We are shifting and changing all the time and our boundaries need to be as dynamic and ever-evolving as we are! Know that you always have the right to shift your boundaries as needed. And be sure that your actions back up your words so that the boundaries you speak are not empty promises to yourself. 

Sunday 6/21 – Dragonfly – We are all viewing the world through our own unique lenses and it’s important to remember to question what we think we see and know from time to time. In particular, the idea that we are separate from anything else in the universe is a distorted perspective and today the call is to notice all the ways we are actually connected to absolutely everything around us. Ask yourself again and again today, how am I impacting the world around me? How am I impacted by my environment, both my immediate environment and my broader global or universal environment? How do my actions circle back like a boomerang and ultimately show up in my own experience? This is a reminder of how truly powerful we actually are. And when we are aware of and own our power, we move through the world with a deeper sense of responsibility and grace.

Weekly Forecast Monday April 27th, 2020

Monday 4/27 – Fox Reversed  – The week begins with Fox in the reversed position encouraging us to come out of hiding. Share your gifts with the world and don’t be afraid of shining too brightly. Yes, there are times when it makes sense to hang out in the background but this is not one of them. If you have some big goals that feel intimidating, try bringing a sense of light-heartedness to the tasks at hand. The energy you bring to any venture determines whether it feels like play or an ordeal. 

Tuesday 4/28 – Weasel Reversed - Check your intentions today. Have you been engaging in subtle forms of manipulation? Any time we try to get something from someone else without being direct, we create sticky situations energetically. The best bet is always to be as honest and transparent as possible. This ensures that we don’t take anything from anyone that they wouldn’t willingly give and keeps us from getting tangled up in a web of deception and resentment. If your honesty doesn’t yield the results you were hoping for, trust the reroute and know that nothing that is meant for you will miss you.

Wednesday 4/29 – Wild Boar Reversed – If you find yourself feeling the urge to lash out, it’s a sign that you have not been honoring your own boundaries. First things first, discharge the built up energy in a healthy way, whether that looks like going for a run, writing a completely uncensored letter and then burning it, channeling your feelings into art, or dropping into a cleansing breathwork practice. Once you’re grounded, you should be able to gain a little more clarity around what is triggering you and where your agency is in the situation. Speak your truth and re-establish any boundaries as necessary, just make sure that you are doing so from a compassionate place. If your emotions ran away with you and you already unleashed your frustration in a way that left you feeling shame or regret, know that we are all human and that none of us get through life without at least a few missteps. Do your best to make amends, learn what you can from the experience, and then forgive yourself. Being kinder with others starts with being kinder to ourselves. 

Thursday 4/30 – Squirrel Reversed  – Making an effort to prepare for the future can be a good thing, but even good things have their limits. If our planning turns into a desperate attempt to control the future, it becomes more of a disability than a boon. The questions to ask yourself today are: What am I afraid of? In what ways am I scared that I won’t have enough? Hold the answer gently. Honor the truth of those feelings. And come back to the truth of the present. Right now, in this moment, are you safe? Are your needs being met? Identify what is truly in your control, and then begin the practice of surrendering everything else. Cultivate trust in your ability to meet whatever comes your way. You’ve made through every challenging day thus far. Remind yourself of that as often as you need to. 

Friday 5/1 – Otter Reversed – Some of the greatest joy we can receive in life comes through our connection with others, but it’s hard to create healthy, thriving relationships when we’re wracked with insecurity, jealousy, or low self worth. Allow yourself to take the risk of being vulnerable today. Open up to those around you. Reach out and, if you have the opportunity to, offer support to others. You may find that these practices not only bring more love into your life, but also open the channels for creativity and inspiration as well. 

Saturday 5/2 – Ant Reversed – Patience isn’t about how long we can force ourselves to wait for something to happen. It’s about the energy we embody while we are waiting. We can’t control time or make things happen any faster than they are destined to. If you experience delays and find yourself feeling frustrated today, make a game out of your present circumstances. See how much beauty you can find around you wherever you are at. Find a productive way to use your time and see how much magic you can create during the pause. Before you know it, what you have been waiting for will arrive, and when you meet it, you’ll be that much more nourished and fulfilled thanks to the slow down.

Sunday 5/3 – Dog Reversed – Balancing loyalty to ourselves and to those around us is a constant and dynamic process. Most of us have a natural tendency to lean a bit more towards one than the other. Dog asks us to examine that and to create more balance in our relationships. If we’ve been playing the role of martyr and looking out for everyone but ourselves, it’s time to come back home to our own hearts and to honor our own needs with the same attentiveness we’ve shown to others. If we have a tendency to put ourselves first and often forget to check on those we care about, turn the tables and ask your loved ones if there is anything you can do to support them. Even if the answer is no, the gesture can go a long way towards letting someone know that you care.

Weekly Forecast Monday January 27th, 2020

Monday 1/27 – Armadillo Reversed  – Boundary setting has been a hot topic in the self-help and social psychology worlds for years now but we mostly hear discussions about people with a lack of boundaries. What’s less spoken of is the fact that our relationship with boundary setting falls on a spectrum from rigid boundaries to soft or non-existent boundaries, with the healthy approach falling somewhere in the middle of these two poles. Today asks that we take a look at our own relationship to boundary-setting, both with others and with ourselves, and assess for places that we could work to move more towards that healthy middle ground. Could we stand to be clearer about our own needs and what does and doesn’t work for us? Or is our work in being more willing to compromise and to be flexible enough to make space for connection and intimacy? Only you will know what the answer is for you and how much you are willing to work at the edge of your comfort zone. And remember, this work is about progress, not perfection, so be gentle with yourself as you explore.

Tuesday 1/28 – Snake - So many of us have had really rough starts to this new year. The good news? The energy seems to be shifting and we’re finally getting to the place where we can see the gift held within our struggles. It’s time to take that pile of crap and use it to fertilize the garden of your life. What do you want to grow? What have your challenges taught you about what you value in life and what you want to prioritize? Now take any residual charge from the things that have triggered you and channel it into the creation of your highest vision. You’ve got this. 

Wednesday 1/29 – Eagle Reversed – You’re relationship with Spirit, either a higher power or simply your own spirit, is just like any other relationship in your life--it requires consistent tending. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself and/or something greater than you, it’s time to rekindle those connections. Maybe that means spending time with your spiritual community, engaged in ritual or ceremony, or simply praying in whatever way feels true to you. Perhaps your own breath and heartbeat are the rhythms that will tap you back into the interconnectedness of all things and your vital place within the universe. Sometimes just creating space for the experience of awe and wonder can be the key. Either way, your relationship with Spirit is the most vital relationship in your life and the one that will carry you through until the end of your days. Invest in it accordingly. 

Thursday 1/30 – Bat  – Embrace the fresh energy and the shifts that are taking place both around and within you right now. A new phase is being ushered in and you are being invited to step more fully into your truth and power. There may be some shedding during this process and that’s okay. Release anything that is keeping you small or dimming your light. Don’t be afraid to try new things or new ways of being. You may find that you’ll learn something about yourself that has the opportunity to alter the landscape of your life in the most wonderful ways.

Friday 1/31 – Owl – Today offers a special opportunity to tap into your intuitive gifts and subtle senses. Most of us can’t see energy, but with practice, we can learn to fine-tune our ability to feel it. This is such a special gift to develop because, when we are more aware of our own energy and that of others, we can make more informed choices about how we wish to move through the world. Spend time today noticing your own energy field, how it impacts those around you, the energy fields of others, and how the energies of others interplays with your own. Just be mindful of appropriate boundaries and make sure that you are not manipulating or invading the energy of those around you. Simply tuning in with a gentle touch and unconditional positive regard is all it takes to start to cultivate a stronger intuitive abilities.

Saturday 2/1 – Black Panther Reversed  – Where are you afraid to surrender? To welcome in the unknown? To trust in both the universe and yourself? The answers to these questions may arise for you today. If you are feeling ungrounded or uneasy about the future, come back to your breath, place your bare feet on the earth, and feel the warmth of the sun on your face. Remind yourself of every obstacle you have surmounted and know that you have the ability to meet everything that is ahead, both the joyous experiences and the challenging ones, with courage and grace. Exhale your fear and release the desire to control the outcome. There are so many possibilities beyond what you can even imagine. Stay open, in both heart and mind.  

Sunday 2/2 – Otter Reversed – If you find yourself getting caught up in jealousy or competitive tendencies today, take a step back. You only cheat yourself of connection when you put yourself in opposition to others. Instead, do the most counter-intuitive thing and help someone else succeed. It might feel strange at first, especially if you’re in a lack mentality, but this simple act will bring you back to the truth that we rise by lifting others up and that there’s more than enough (money, love, opportunity, etc.) to go around. You might even make a connection that ends up bringing some much-needed nourishment and joy into your life as well. So don’t be stingy with your support, because you get what you give.

Weekly Forecast Monday January 20th, 2020

Monday 1/20 – Otter Reversed  – We all need time to ourselves every now and again but at the end of the day we are social creatures and need the support of a loving community around us. Invest in connections with people who nourish your soul today and keep your gatherings intimate and simple. A movie night. Family-style dinner at someone’s home. A stroll in the local park or conversation over a good cup of coffee or tea. These moments have the power to bring us home to ourselves and to remind us of what is most important in life. Make sure you make time for them.

Tuesday 1/21 – Spider Reversed - Don’t stifle your need to express yourself today. There are some many ways to move and release energy and it’s absolutely vital that you discharge what’s coming up for you, whether that’s through movement, song, making art, or writing. Free association writing in particular can serve as a powerful way to release anything that’s felt heavy on your heart and mind lately. Don’t be afraid to pour it all out on paper and then let it go.

Wednesday 1/22 – Coyote Reversed – We humans are such funny creatures especially when we so often are the architects of our own suffering. Coyote reminds us to laugh at ourselves and to notice the ways we are tripping ourselves up. It could be excessive worrying, self-righteousness, or self-sabotaging behaviors. Only you know where you have room to be a bit more gentle with yourself. Get honest about what shifts would most support you and then pour on the compassion as you work on yourself. 

Thursday 1/23 – Antelope  – You may experience a little boost of energy today so ride that wave and dig into any projects that you’ve been wanting to see move forward. Clear away any distractions if you can and let yourself drop completely into the flow of inspiration. When you’re in this zone, you’ll be able to get twice as much done and feel uplifted rather than drained along the way. 

Friday 1/24 – Butterfly Reversed  – Where you are is exactly where you are meant to be in this moment. Can you trust that? Can you look around you and soak up every bit of magic that is currently surrounding you? It’s part of the irony of life that once you are able to fully embrace your present circumstances you are more able to move forward into what’s next with a groundedness and clarity.

Saturday 1/25 – Dragonfly Reversed  – Remind yourself today that you shouldn’t necessarily believe everything you think. That doesn’t mean to spin out in confusion or distrust, but rather to simply leave some space for the possibility that there are other truths. Stay curious and open-minded today, particularly if you’re feeling like digging your heels in. You may find that seeing things from another perspective actually supports your own expansion as well. 

Sunday 1/26 – Jaguar Reversed – Integrity is all about alignment of values and actions and making sure that your life is an embodiment of what you believe. We all have moments in which we blur the lines of what we know to be right or wrong out of convenience or hurt, but it’s important that we do our best to catch ourselves in the act and reroute as frequently as we can. Do a little personal inventory today of where you could be better about walking your talk. No need to be harsh or judgemental. Simply notice the places where you’re not living up to the person you would like to be and create whatever shifts you need to in order to make yourself truly proud of how you show up in the world.

Weekly Forecast Monday December 16th, 2019

Monday 12/16 – Squirrel – While it’s not helpful to get caught up in worries about the future, a little planning and preparation can go a long way. Spend some time today taking an inventory of your resources--monetary, sure, but also energy, time, and anything else that you know you tap into on a regular basis. How are you spending these resources? Is your current approach sustainable? And, if not, what tweaks or adjustments do you need to make so that you can make it, not only through the season, but through many seasons to come, feeling grounded and aligned?

Tuesday 12/17 – Spider - Creativity can be such a powerful healer and it doesn’t even require any skill. At its most basic, being creative is simply about authentic expression and you don’t need anything more than your own body and spirit for that. Sing. Dance. Tell a story. Of course, if you want to bring on other media like paints, clay, film, or instruments, feel free! The goal today is simply to move stagnant energy and to release anything that’s no longer serving you.

Wednesday 12/18 – Beaver Reversed – Watch out for self-sabotaging behaviors today, especially with regard to things that you’ve invested a lot of your time, money, and energy into. Even tiny leaks in a vessel will ultimately mean that it can’t hold what it’s meant to. If you notice that you’ve been spending money frivolously, giving your time to people who only leave you feeling drained, or falling into unhealthy habits that undo any progress you’ve made on your wellness goals, it might be time to do some work around your sense of self worth. You deserve to be successful and it’s time you not only believe that, but that your actions align with that belief as well!

Thursday 12/19 – Salmon Reversed – Those signs that keep showing up all over the place? The funny feeling you had? The vision that seems to just keep popping into your mind? Listen to them! Our intuition speaks to us in so many ways and it’s up to us to tune in and to honor the messages we receive! This doesn’t mean that you need to take every bit of it literally or go making major life changes based on a dream you had--although if you feel compelled to do that, then you absolutely should! More than anything though, cultivating a relationship with our intuitive gifts is about listening closely to our hearts, spirits, and often our guts, and then finding a way to at least explore whatever we find there. The more you practice, the more fine-tuned your gifts will become as will your clarity about what is most important to you in this wild ride of a life.

Friday 12/20 – Owl – For most of us, energy isn’t visible, but that doesn’t mean that it’s doesn’t exist or have very real impacts. Be especially mindful of the energy you are putting out today. We are so much more powerful than we realize and we are constantly casting spells with our thoughts and wishes. We are also inextricably interconnected, so anything you wish on another, you essentially wish on yourself as well. Make sure that you’re calling in things that you want, both for yourself and the world around you.

Saturday 12/21 – Lynx Reversed – If you find yourself wanting to tell someone about something you see in them, make sure what you have to say truly serves the highest good of all. More often than not, when we feel intensely compelled to tell someone something, it’s more about our need to discharge an uncomfortable energy. Instead, find another way to process what’s coming up for you and let your insights inform your decisions about how to move forward. If the person you wanted to share with is ready and willing to receive your feedback, they’ll let you know. Until then, it’s unlikely that sharing your reflections will have the outcome you had been hoping for.

Sunday 12/22 – Rabbit – Fear is part of the human experience and a little bit of fear around certain things can be healthy. It’s all about balance and the way we hold our experience. If you notice that worries or anxieties have been nagging at the edge of your awareness, look them straight in the eye. Honor their presence. Find out how they’re trying to protect or help you. And then wish them well before releasing them to Spirit. This practice will keep you from either running from or being consumed by your fears, both of which are a waste of your precious, divine energy.

Weekly Forecast Monday October 21st, 2019

Monday 10/21 – Coyote  – Watch out for a tendency to take yourself too seriously today. Sooner or later, we all trip over our own feet, and the more we can carry ourselves with humility and a sense of humor, the easier it will be to not only recover from our missteps, but to grow from them as well. So take a deep breath and laugh at your own humanness. You may even notice that when you drop the defensiveness and self-importance, people actually respect you more.

Tuesday 10/22 – Raven - Magic is always available to you if you only choose to tap into it, but we’re currently moving through a season where the veil is especially thin. This doesn’t have to be seen as a spooky phenomenon, but instead a very special opportunity to connect with those that are no longer with us. Maybe that means asking for support and guidance from a loved one who has passed. Perhaps it looks like connecting with your lineage and ancestors that you may have never even met. It could be as simple as intentionally opening up to messages from spirit guides. Don’t be afraid to connect with the other side. As long as your intentions are pure and loving, the energies you call in will be as well.

Wednesday 10/23 – Elk Reversed – Take some time today to check in with your energy levels and your commitments. Do you have enough reserves to navigate the season ahead without running yourself into the ground? If not, you might consider shifting things in your calendar around or even removing some tasks altogether. You’ll be much more able to back out of or rearrange a commitment gracefully if you do so with fair notice and most people will respect your honesty and consideration. For anyone who doesn’t, just remind yourself that you’re modeling healthy boundaries by taking care of your wellbeing.

Thursday 10/24 – Frog – When Frog shows up in the spread it’s always a reminder of the importance of periodic cleansing. This could mean a review and revamp of your diet, your media habits, thought patterns, or even the people you surround yourself with. Notice what elevates your body and spirit, what tends to leave you feeling drained, and make the appropriate adjustments accordingly. Little shifts can lead to powerfully positive changes so don’t be afraid to step away from anything that isn’t helping you become the very best version of yourself. 

Friday 10/25 – Eagle  – Spirit can speak to you in so many different ways. Open yourself up today to receive signs--from strangers, through synchronicities, from nature, and even subtle feelings or visions. Ask for guidance and then notice what happens next. The more you listen for and honor the messages that show up, the more you’ll notice that absolutely everything is conspiring to support you.

Saturday 10/26 – Mouse – Discernment and paying attention to the details is the name of the game today. Review all the fine print and tune into your spidey senses. If something feels off, hold on making any decisions until you feel confident that you have full awareness of what’s at stake. Also, don’t be afraid to pass up any opportunities that don’t feel fully in alignment with your values and visions. Trying to force a fit often leads to regret down the line so be patient and trust that when it’s right, you’ll know. 

Sunday 10/27 – Spider Reversed – You may find yourself getting mired in jealousy or drama as the weekend comes to a close. If you notice these impulses coming up today, dig a little deeper and find out what is asking to be expressed. Are there parts of yourself that you’ve been keeping small? Is there a project or dream that you’ve been too afraid to undertake? Envy simply holds a mirror up to our unmet needs and desires, so use these signals as information and then get to work on your own healing by creating something that is authentic and uniquely yours.

Weekly Forecast Monday October 14th, 2019

Monday 10/14 – Opossum  – Sometimes when we’re experiencing a lot of resistance, whether that’s in a relationship dynamic or a passion project, the best thing we can do is to take a big step back. Instead of using more force, try giving the situation some space and stay open to the possibility that the issue could resolve without you actively engaging. Even if further attention from you is required, you’ll be much more able to access creative solutions once you’ve had a chance to outlet any charge around the situation and come back to your center. 

Tuesday 10/15 – Spider - Creativity is a powerful healer, whether you choose to share your creations with the world or not. The act of expressing ourselves authentically and transmuting our intangible experiences into something that can be seen, felt, or heard, if only by our own senses, allows us to move through the world in a more empowered way and also more gently. So don’t hold anything in today. Pour it out onto a canvas, into song, into movement, or any other format that feels true for you. Don’t worry about the product. What’s most important is your own catharsis.

Wednesday 10/16 – Owl – Just because something can’t be seen doesn’t mean it isn’t real. Listen closely to your more subtle senses. The chills that show up on your skin. The hairs that raise on your arm. That feeling in your gut or your chest. The vision that flashes through your mind momentarily. It’s not about needing to know exactly what these things mean in a literal way, but more about noticing that your intuition is speaking to you through your body and cultivating a relationship with these capacities. The more deeply you listen, the more you’ll come to understand your own unique intuitive gifts. 

Thursday 10/17 – Black Panther – Knowing that you actually have control over very little in your life can either be stress-inducing or a deep relief--the choice is up to you, but you’re much more likely to enjoy the ride if you surrender and allow the uncertainty to be exhilarating. In fact, you could even decide to treat your entire day like a game, approaching obstacles as challenges designed to keep you engaged and inspire creativity. If you’re having a hard time finding the fun in the detours, at the very least try your best to trust that they’re guiding you to the exact place you’re meant to be.

Friday 10/18 – Crow  – If you’ve been stuck in a loop with certain habits or behaviors that you know aren’t serving you, the key to breaking the cycle might be a little more compassion for yourself. It sounds counterintuitive but beating ourselves up rarely creates lasting shift. Instead of trying to use shame as an agent of change, get curious about the motivations beneath your actions. Once you can find the gift in the experience, you’ll be able to redirect and find what it is you’re truly seeking through healthier channels. 

Saturday 10/19 – Eagle Reversed – When we start to feel disconnected or lost, that’s a sign that it’s time to invest in our relationship with Spirit. What that looks like will be unique to each person. For some it might mean prayer. For others, time out in nature or connecting with uplifting community. Whatever you need to do to remind yourself that you are here for a reason and that you are not alone, go do it. We all need a little infusion of love and hope from time to time and it’s up to us to get out there and find what we need.

Sunday 10/20 – Raven – Magic is everywhere. Whether or not we see it is really a matter of perspective. Remember the things that brought you the most excitement and joy as a child. More often than not, it’s the simplest experiences that are the most nourishing. Open yourself up to beauty and awe today. And don’t forget that your words are magic, too. Be mindful of what spells you cast when you speak. What you say, both out loud and internally, has the power to shape your world. Make sure that you’re creating something that lights you up.

Weekly Forecast Monday August 12th, 2019

Monday 8/12 – Otter Reversed  – It can be frustrating when we can’t see eye to eye with someone we love or even someone we just need to be in contact with, whether that’s a coworker or co-parent, but forcing our worldview on others is not only ineffective, it can be destructive to trust and connection. Try to see if you can hold space for the other person’s point of view, even if you don’t understand it. Accepting people as they are, even when they fall short of our own expectations is a practice of compassion and one we can all stand to lean more fully into. Sometimes simply considering what it feels like to walk in another’s shoes can rekindle connection, but if you find that the chasm is too deep to be bridged, make sure that you release the attachment with love in your heart.

Tuesday 8/13 – Badger Reversed - Temper any tendencies towards aggressive or coercive behavior today, especially when it comes to trying to complete projects or doing any self-healing work. Today calls for a softer approach that takes regular, measured steps towards the desired outcome. Rushing and being forceful often leads to overshooting and sometimes even results in big mistakes. Slow and steady wins the race today.

Wednesday 8/14 – Turkey  – What gifts do you have to offer the world today? Really, that’s a wonderful question to ask ourselves everyday but today, in particular, calls for each of us to look through the lens of abundance and to search for the ways in which we can share from the overflow in our lives. Looks for ways, big or small, you can show up in a spirit of service. That could mean donating money or time, peppering your day with random acts of kindness, or finding a way to use your talents to help others. You may find that the experience is just as nourishing for you as it is for those you support and that you gain some powerful perspective along the way. 

Thursday 8/15 – Skunk – We don’t have control over much in this life, but the one thing we do get to choose is our own vibration, the energy with which we move through the world, and the impact we have along the way--if we’re conscious of it that is. We all have blind spots around how we show up, but relationships are powerful mirrors that offer clues about the places that we might have more work to do. If you notice certain patterns cropping up again and again in relationships around you, do some personal inquiry around how you might be feeding into that dynamic, even in subtle ways. The more you take responsibility for the energy you put out into the world, the more empowered you’ll be with regard to creating the life you truly desire.

Friday 8/16 – Dolphin Reversed  – If you’re feeling overwhelmed, weighed dowd, or simply disconnected from yourself and/or the world around you, it might be time to press pause and get still. If you can spend some time connecting with your own breath, do that. If that doesn’t feel accessible to you, then do something that pulls you out of your mind and back into your sensory perception--watch the branches of a tree sway in the breeze, soak in cold or hot water depending on your preference, put your face in the most fragrant rose blossom and inhale deeply...whatever you do, make sure that you find a way to remember what a gift this life is, and then repeat that as many times as needed.  

Saturday 8/17 – Whale – Don’t hold back. If there’s something you need to say, then say it, even if that means you write it on a piece of paper only to burn it. The point is to get it out, to move the energy, and to release anything that keeps you from fully authentic self-expression. If you feel like you’re in need of a little extra support in this area, practice simply humming or singing to yourself as a way to open up the throat chakra and become more familiar with your own voice and the power of using it. Before you know it, you may find that speaking your truth becomes easier and there are few things more freeing. 

Sunday 8/18 – Salmon – Trust your inner compass above all else today. No one else can tell you what path is yours or how to navigate it, as much as we might wish for that to be so at times. The good news is that the more you connect with your own intuitive capacities, the more fine-tuned your inner guidance system will become. One of the simplest ways to do this is to simply ask for guidance and then listen. The response may come in the form of physical sensations, visions, or a strong sense of knowing. However it appears, do your best to honor it and then notice the magic that happens as you align your actions with your deepest desires.

Weekly Forecast Monday July 22nd, 2019

Monday 7/22 – Grouse  – Spend some time today dropping into your body and your senses. How often do you really celebrate all the blessings your physical form brings you? Gratitude is an active practice and one of the best ways to honor a gift is to be fully present with it. Bring mindfulness to your sensory experiences of taste, touch, hearing, sight, and smell. If you catch yourself getting tangled up in judgement, shift your focus to curiosity and wonder and notice the difference in how you feel. If you’re really struggling to get out of your head then it’s time to play. Dance. Run through the hills. Jump into the ocean. Whatever you need to do to remind yourself that you are alive in this moment in time that you will never experience again. Be here now. Enjoy it.

Tuesday 7/23 – Owl Reversed - It’s time to come clean. What have you been hiding from yourself? What have you been trying to convince yourself of even though you know better? We can want something to be true with all our hearts but that won’t make it so. Stop trying to fit square pegs into round holes and get honest with yourself. Once you let go of what you thought should have been, you open yourself up to a whole world of possibility.

Wednesday 7/24 – Wolf Reversed  – When we put people up on pedestals we set both them and ourselves up for a big fall. It’s time to pluck the stars from your own eyes and remember that everyone, no matter how gifted or wise, is still human, makes mistakes, and can only speak from their own experience. Whatever magic you’re seeking in others is only a sign that it’s time to acknowledge your own gifts and power. The greatest guides you will ever have in your life is your own heart and spirit. Trust their wisdom.

Thursday 7/25 – Turtle – Don’t underestimate the healing power of connection with nature today. Whether you have five minutes to tend to some houseplants or snuggle with a pet or a full afternoon to spend outside, make sure to carve out a little time to drop back into the rhythms of the natural world. Slow down. Let your tensions fall away. Allow yourself to feel the way that you are a vital, albeit tiny, part of an intricate and beautiful universe. Let the magic of that fill your heart and spill out into everything you do.

Friday 7/26 – Elk  – Do your best to pace yourself today. If you’ve got a lot on the agenda, work out a plan of attack that accounts for regular breaks. You can get everything you need to do done, but not all at once and not at the expense of your wellbeing. Making sure that your body is properly cared for as you move through your day will help you keep balanced energy levels and you’re less likely to make careless mistakes from being hangry or rushed. Slowing it down a little may actually save you time in the long run, so take those deep breaths and maybe a few stretch breaks here and there if needed.

Saturday 7/27 – Deer – Be extra gentle with yourself today. Sometimes we need to push ourselves a little but today is more about nurturing and tenderness. Self-care and self-love are less about doing elaborate rituals and more about being attuned to your needs. Listen closely to what your body is asking for today and tend to its requests as lovingly as you can. 

Sunday 7/28 – Racoon Reversed – If you find yourself tempted to play savior today, don’t do it! You may have the best of intentions, but fixing other people’s problems doesn’t allow them to navigate the journey that will help them find their own power and agency. Ask yourself if the person or people in question actually need your help or if you are simply looking for a way to feel valuable or perhaps even distract from your own inner work. If neither of those things are true, then ask if and how you can best support the person. The key to avoiding codependent dynamics is to make sure that, however you choose to support, you’re empowering the other party to find their own solutions rather than just swooping in with a magic wand.

Weekly Forecast Monday July 15th, 2019

Monday 7/15 – Moose  – So often we run around trying to draw a sense of worthiness from the people around us, from accomplishments, and from pretty much everywhere but within. Today it’s time to come back to the truth of your intrinsic value. You don’t need to do anything special or be anyone other than who you are. You were born as a manifestation of love and divinity. You continue to be just that, even in the moments in which you feel you’ve strayed from that truth. Come back to it. As many times as you need to today.

Tuesday 7/16 – Elk Reversed - It’s time to simplify and take some items off of your plate today. What is most important or actually needs attention right now? Focus on that and bump the remainder of the tasks on your to-do list to another day, or maybe even cross them out altogether. It can be tempting to try to get everything done all at once but, more often than not, that approach results in sloppy errors and burn out. Pace yourself. And if you find yourself having a hard time figuring out what to let go of, come back to your values and your vision for your life. Keep what supports that and eliminate or at least shelf the rest. 

Wednesday 7/17 – Lynx Reversed  – We all have our blindspots and while others can sometimes shine a light on the parts of ourselves that are difficult to see, we have to be ready to receive that insight for it to actually be helpful or healing. Keep this in mind if you’re considering approaching someone with feedback or a reflection today. Just because it may not be the right time at this very moment to share what you notice doesn’t mean that the time will never come. Usually, when people are ready to hear your perspective, they will ask. In the meantime, stay in your own lane by making the choices that best serve you and letting others make the choices that they feel serve them. 

Thursday 7/18 – Frog – A little detox is in order today! Whether you choose to clean up your nutrition, your timeline, your inner dialogue, or your social circle, practice extra mindfulness today around the energies that you take on or consume. Ask yourself what serves your wellbeing and what seems to detract from your ability to be vibrant, joyful, and aligned with your truth. Once you have those sorted, you know what to do. If you have to make shifts little by little, then do it, just so long as you’re creating more space for what lifts you up and less for anything that doesn’t. 

Friday 7/19 – Ant Reversed  – If you’re someone who struggles with patience and are feeling extra pushed today in that area, try shifting your perspective. What if the delays you’re experiencing are actually for your benefit? This life is so very complex and sometimes only a matter of seconds can determine whether or not you find yourself in the right place at the right time. Lean into that mystery today and trust that you are going to land exactly where you are meant to be, and not a moment sooner or later than you’re meant to be there. And in the meantime, see if there might be some extra juice in the present moment. Even if it’s not where you thought you were supposed to be, there’s no reason why you can’t draw every bit of magic and growth out of what’s in front of you right now. 

Saturday 7/20 – Rabbit – Facing your fears is a process of balance of pushing at the edge of your comfort zone and then holding yourself there as gently as possible. Figure out where you could stand to show up for this work today. Is there an area of your life that you know you’re holding yourself back? If so, it’s time to start approaching it with curiosity and courage. And it’s worth mentioning that courage doesn’t mean fearlessness or recklessness with our hearts and spirits. It’s about stepping into vulnerability with a heart that is wide open to the possibilities and a willingness to explore your own limits. You find out how far you can go by starting with a single step. 

Sunday 7/21 – Grouse Reversed – Life can get so heavy sometimes that it’s easy to forget how much a gift it is to simply be here, getting to experience this world through the sensations of our own bodies. Take time today to remember by dropping into your senses. Sight. Smell. Taste. Sound. And Touch. Each one can be a form of nourishment if you choose to receive it as such. It’s all about how you direct your attention. Focus on the simple pleasures today. Maybe that’s dancing to a song you love with total abandon. Maybe it’s feeling the warm sunlight on your skin or reveling in the flavors of the sweetest summer fruit. Perhaps you simply watch the dust particles float through a beam of afternoon light. Whatever you do, soak it up. Let it be a celebration. Even if it’s only the tiniest quietest moment. You’re here for it and that’s nothing short of miraculous.

Weekly Forecast Monday June 24th, 2019

Monday 6/24 – Snake Reversed  – So often we move through our days on auto-pilot, missing moment after moment that offers the opportunity to connect with the divine nature of our own existence and that of everything around us. The call here is to shift into a more intentional way of being, to acknowledge the sacred in even the most mundane experiences, and to choose to be present with the beauty in each moment. If you struggle with this, a simple place to start is by creating a ritual out of something you already do. You might choose to bless your food with loving, healing energy as you prepare it. Perhaps you cleanse your energy field along with your body during your shower or bath, releasing any stored experiences that feel heavy or no longer serve you. Even simply taking a few extra minutes in bed in the morning to be present with your breath and your spirit before you begin your day can have a profound impact on your life. Your practices don’t need to be flashy; what matters most is that they are carried out with genuine intention and heart.

Tuesday 6/25 – Crow - Bring extra attention today to your impact. Ask yourself if how you’re showing up in the world is truly in alignment with your values and the legacy you wish to leave when you’re no longer here in physical form. This isn’t about what everyone else things is “good” or “good enough”; it’s about knowing in your heart that the choices you make, from your habits as a consumer to the way you interact with others to the ways that you speak to yourself internally, are truly serving your wellbeing as well as that of the world around you. We are so much more interconnected with everything around us than we will likely ever know and when we keep that in mind, it becomes much clearer that moving through the world kindly and gently creates peace both within and without.

Wednesday 6/26 – Badger  – There are times when we meet resistance and it’s a sign that we should back off, but this is not the message for today. Today calls for a relentless spirit and digging deep. The night is always darkest right before the dawn and you may be on the verge of a breakthrough. Ultimately, trust yourself and your inner knowing about if and when you should pull the plug, but if your heart is really in a goal and you’re questioning whether to continue on or to turn back, considering continuing to feel into your edge just a bit more, as gently as you need to. This will ensure that, no matter what you choose, you can know that you gave it your all.

Thursday 6/27 – Armadillo Reversed – If you find yourself struggling to set clear boundaries with others today or you’re feeling tempted to minimize your needs in order to avoid disappointing or upsetting someone else, remember that by honoring yourself, you implicitly give others permission to do the same. You may even be modeling a form of self-care that is entirely new to them and what a gift that could be, so don’t be afraid to set firm, but kind boundaries and let other people take care of themselves around that however they need to as well.

Friday 6/28 – Alligator – When was the last time you really celebrated yourself? So many of us hold conscious or unconscious beliefs around acknowledging and honoring our own accomplishments as signifying vanity or self-absorption and nothing could be further from the truth. Taking time to reflect on and celebrate challenges we’ve overcome and  goals we’ve met offers a beautiful opportunity to integrate all of the learning and growth that came out of these experiences so that we can carry it forward and share it with others. It’s also only when we allow ourselves to fully receive acknowledgment that we are able to truly offer it to others. So take some time today to reflect on all the ways you’re proud of yourself and be as generous with the self love as you would if you were lavishing that love on someone else.

Saturday 6/29 – Butterfly Reversed – Healthy growth requires a willingness to be present with what is. If we are holding on to the past or clinging to our comfort zones we can’t move forward. If we are trying to skip ahead into a future that hasn’t come to be yet, we miss the steps that prepare us to be able to navigate and sustain our own expansion. Embrace what is present for you in this very moment, both the good and the bad, as if you wouldn’t wish to be anywhere else. Once you’re able to do that, you’ll receive exactly what you need to step into the next phase.

Sunday 6/30 – Horse – Each and every one of us is a living, breathing embodiment of Spirit with massive creative potential. Being aware of this is the essence of empowerment and reminds us of the importance of being intentional about how we choose to channel and direct our precious life force energy. If you knew you could create anything, what would you create? Let the answer to that question inspire and guide your choices today, and if the answer isn’t immediately clear, don’t be afraid to ask Spirit/the cosmos/God/Goddess or whatever name you give to the source of all life to send you a clear message about your purpose. You existence is not an accident. Your work is to find out what gift you have to share with the world and then to share it as generously as possible.

Weekly Forecast Monday June 17th, 2019

Monday 6/17 – Bear  – We can seek out teacher after teacher and pour over texts searching for insight and wisdom, but the greatest enlightenment is always found through the journey inward. Take time today to explore the deepest caverns of your inner world. Hold what you find gently. And when it’s time to re-emerge, remember that your vulnerability and trust is a privilege to receive, so be discerning about who you choose to share it with.

Tuesday 6/18 – Armadillo Reversed - If our boundaries are too soft then we risk abandoning our needs, but if they are too rigid, we block ourselves from connection with others and the growth that can come from being in relationship. The key is to find the sweet spot in between and to stay flexible enough to pivot and shift as needed since our boundaries should be as dynamic as both our own growth processes and our ever-evolving relationships. Check in with yourself today. Are there places you can give a little? Or are there places where you need to draw clearer lines? And don’t forget that these questions apply just as much to your relationship with yourself as they do to your relationships with others.

Wednesday 6/19 – Rabbit  – How we relate to our fears also benefits from a balanced approach. Completely disregarding our experience when something triggers overwhelm, worry, or anxiety is a recipe for trouble. Often, our bodies will speak to us in louder and more exaggerated ways until we listen, so it’s best not to wait until we have health issues, physical or mental, before we respond. On the other hand, when we let fear run the show we lose our ability to see and respond to what’s coming up with clarity and groundedness. To release your fears you must hold them with compassion, honor the child within, and encourage him or her to move forward, at their own pace, with loving support.

Thursday 6/20 – Elk – Be very mindful about the commitments you make today, particularly if you know you’re prone to overextending yourself. Your “yes” is only valuable  when you are fully capable of saying “no” to things that are not in alignment with you, and this includes things that you simply don’t have the energy or time for at this moment. Take the time to be honest with yourself about whether or not you can and/or want to do something and then let that awareness guide your choices.

Friday 6/21 – Alligator Reversed – When we react impulsively, we give up our ability to make intentional choices. When we create space to pause, take in our external circumstances as well as our internal experiences, and then respond according to our values and who we wish to be in the world, we empower ourselves. No matter how tempted you are to offer a snap reaction to something today, take a beat, and maybe a deep breath or two, and get clear about what is most important to you. You may even find that no response is the best response for now.

Saturday 6/22 – Beaver Reversed – It doesn’t matter how hard you work towards something if you’re engaging in behaviors that counter all of your efforts. Take a good look at your goals today as well as any ways that you might be “leaking energy” or working against your best interests. If you see a strong pattern of self-sabotage, it might be worth doing some inner work to see if there are underlying self-worth issues at play or if your goals are perhaps not in true alignment with your heart’s deepest desires. If they’re driven by ego, then consider letting them go and setting your sights on a vision that feels more true to you. If you know, however, that your goals truly light you up, a little (tough) self-love in the form of discipline might be in order.

Sunday 6/23 – Weasel Reversed – Every relationship involves some form of exchange, and in healthy relationships, agreements about what that exchange looks like for both parties are clear, even if they aren’t spoken. When we manipulate or operate with ulterior motives, we open the door to unnecessary miscommunication, disappointment, and issues around trust. Save yourself the trouble and be transparent about what you’re seeking from others today. If someone can’t meet you where you’d like them to, wish them well and let them continue on with their journey. You’ll find whatever it is that you’re looking for in another more aligned soul or maybe even within yourself.

Weekly Forecast Monday June 3rd, 2019

Monday 6/3 – Black Panther  – If you find yourself on the precipice of a big transition or preparing to move into unknown territory in some area of your life, be extra mindful of your self-talk. The difference between excitement and nervousness is really about what we believe about what’s ahead. Envision yourself succeeding, and even if things don’t go exactly as you had imagined, you will be in a much more centered and positive mindset, which will only support your ability to meet any potential challenges with positivity and creativity. And who knows? Maybe things will be even better than you could ever have imagined.

Tuesday 6/4 – Blue Heron - Carve out some time today to engage in an introspective practice, whether that’s seated meditation, a solo walk in nature, breathwork, or some free association journaling. Our inner worlds are so incredibly vast and every so often, it’s important to journey within and explore the terrain. This isn’t about trying to “fix” anything or make assessments about what is “good” or “bad”. It’s simply to become more intimate with your own being and it’s one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.

Wednesday 6/5 – Otter Reversed  – We all carry unique balances of masculine and feminine energy with us. This is a beautiful reflection of the duality that we see all throughout nature and should be both cherished and nurtured. If you live in a society that values the qualities of the masculine archetype such as logic, assertiveness, decisiveness, and independence, it can be particularly important to be intentional about honoring the feminine within you as well. Receptivity, creativity, intuition, and interdependent connection are all aspects of the feminine archetype. Practice cultivating these qualities in whatever way feels most aligned for you. We can only honor in others what we first honor in ourselves, so it is in the best interest of both ourselves and the world at large that we honor all aspects of the human experience.

Thursday 6/6 – Hawk Reversed – Don’t let fear and overwhelm send you spinning out today. You have everything you need to navigate what’s in front of you, but you must remember to breathe. Let go of any unnecessary distractions or sources of overstimulation. Get clear about what is actually important right now. Are you safe? Are your basic needs being met? If so, everything else is icing on the cake. Once you are able to take some of the pressure off, you might even be able to enjoy yourself. The difference between an ordeal and an adventure is perspective, after all. And the good news is that you can choose a new perspective at any time.   

Friday 6/7 – Buffalo Reversed – You have a legion of souls supporting you and offering guidance to you at every step. Can you feel them? If not, it’s time to cultivate those connections. So often, we feel that once we have lost someone’s physical presence through death that we can no longer have a relationship with them, but this simply isn’t true. Whether it is someone that you were close to during their life or an ancestor that you’ve never even met, you can always choose to invite in a connection with their spirit. Open yourself up to the possibility of their continued presence. Allow yourself to see them in strangers and animals and clouds. Feel the way you carry them in your heart and let their strength and courage fill you up in moments of hardship.

Saturday 6/8 – Eagle Reversed – When did you forget that you are a living embodiment of the Divine? The conditions and sequences of events that needed to take place for you to be here right now are nothing short of miraculous and when you really allow that knowing to penetrate the depths of your heart, you can no longer pretend that you are anything less than extraordinary. Now, the question is: What are you going to do with the miracle that is your life? What would you do with your time if your every move was an intentional expression of Spirit/Source/God? Do that.

Sunday 6/9 – Mountain Lion Reversed – What is your relationship to the idea of leadership? Do you recoil at the mere thought of being in a position for people to look to you for guidance and support? Do you crave the power of authority? Neither of these perspectives really honors the essence of true leadership, which at its core is about service. If you’ve been offered leadership roles repeatedly but shy away for fear of the responsibility or potential for failure, remember that it isn’t about you being a vision of perfection, but rather an example of someone who is doing their best to elevate those around them. Yes, you will make mistakes along the way, but how you handle those mistakes is what matters. Lead with compassion, transparency, and vulnerable authenticity and even your missteps will ultimately serve to create positive shift. If you find that you’ve been getting high off of being in control, it’s time to take a step back and ask yourself what insecurities you are trying to cover over with the facade of power. If you want to be truly empowered, share your humanity with others. Unveiling your imperfections may be humbling but it paves the way for true connection which yields more loyalty than playing to people’s fears ever will.

Weekly Forecast Monday May 27th, 2019

Monday 5/27 – Raven  – Keep your eyes open for synchronicities today. If you find yourself receiving repeat messages, whether that’s strikingly similar words from different sources, recurring number sequences, unusual encounters with animals, or images that seem to pop up everywhere you go, pay attention. Check in with your gut first to see if you have an intuitive sense of what the meaning behind the messages might be. If you’re not sure, don’t be afraid to ask Spirit for clarification. Sometimes guidance can come from unexpected places. You only need to open your heart and mind to receive it.

Tuesday 5/28 – Turtle Reversed  - If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself or a sense of belonging in this world, it’s time to reconnect with Source. Carve out some time to be present with nature today, whether that means a hike in the hills, a walk along the beach, working in your garden, or simply gazing at the sky. Allow yourself to tune into the pulse of nature and remember that the very same force that causes the flowers to open and close and the tides to ebb and flow brings life to your heart. You are not a mistake. You belong here. The question is: What impact do you wish to have in this life? What legacy do you want to leave behind when you return to the earth? Let the answers to those questions fill you with purpose and guide your days.

Wednesday 5/29 – Turkey Reversed  – A consistent gratitude practice can be a powerful way to tap into joy, but when life gets challenging or we’re experiencing pain or struggle, telling ourselves we “should” be grateful can feel inauthentic. Instead of trying to bully yourself into positive feelings, start with simple pleasures. Warm sunlight on your skin or a cool breeze. The smell of fresh flowers, coffee, or clothes right out of the dryer. A song you absolutely love. The softest T shirt. Whatever brings you a pure and uncomplicated joy--focus on that experience and let the sensations of true, visceral gratitude (as opposed to gratitude as a mental concept) fill you up. Rinse and repeat as often as necessary.

Thursday 5/30 – Badger Reversed – Check yourself before you wreck yourself (or someone else) today! Aggressive energies may show up out of nowhere and your best bet for avoiding acting out in regrettable ways is to channel that energy into something more productive. Go for a run. Dance. Make art. Write out any words that you need to express, but are better left unsaid. Scream into pillows. Do whatever you need to do to move that energy up and out in a healthy way so that it doesn’t lead to implosions or explosions. If you’ve already blown your lid, own your mistake, do your best to make amends, and then forgive yourself. We are all human after all and none of us make it out of this life without at least a few missteps. The important thing is to learn from them and make an honest effort to do better moving forward.

Friday 5/31 – Ant Reversed – If you find your patience being tested today, try redirecting your focus. A watched pot never boils as they say so stop tapping your foot and waiting for something to happen, particularly if it’s something you have no control over. Pour your energy into something else that lights you up and trust that anything that’s meant to be will be. If you’re really struggling to let go, a hard reboot in the form of a change of scenery and perspective might be necessary. It’s a big world out there. Don’t limit yourself by staying stubbornly focused on only one route or possibility.

Saturday 6/1 – Hawk – Messages will be coming through for you again today and in order for you to be able to receive them, it’s important that you take good care of your mind and body. Our intuition speaks to us in so many different ways--through the knot in our stomach, the chills that move across our skin, the vision that flashes through our mind, or that tiny voice that speaks to us from within. Making sure that we’re well-rested, nourished, and not over-stimulated will make it easier to pick up on our intuitive signals, so do your best today to tend to your vessel. If you know that your body’s needs are met but it still seems to be calling out to you, that’s something to pay attention to. Listen closely to what it’s trying to say and then honor it as best you can.  

Sunday 6/2 – Dolphin Reversed – If you’re feeling weighed down with heavy energies, it’s a sign that you’re spending too much time in your head. Take a break from your seriousness and set aside your work for a moment. Come back to your body and your breath. Connect with your community. Spend time in nature and feel that you are not separate, but a vibrant piece of this intricate and magical world. Even a little time to replenish and reconnect with your joy can allow you to return to your to-do list with more optimism, energy, and groundedness.

Weekly Forecast Monday May 6th, 2019

Monday 5/6 – Alligator – Slow it down today. Don’t be afraid to take a beat, or multiple beats, so that you can choose your response intentionally rather than simply reacting from an unconscious place. If you can remain in observer mode today, and wait until tomorrow to make a decision on anything major, all the better. You may find that if you spend a little more time digesting the situation at hand, new information will come forward and knowledge is power, as they say. Either way, make sure that you are taking time to consider and integrate every perspective before you make any big moves today.

Tuesday 5/7 – Elk Reversed  - Have you been feeling the burn of Spring fever lately? As exciting as the shift from Spring to Summer can be with festival seasons and longer days full of more warmth and light, it’s important to still carve out time for deep rest. If you have to, block out time in your calendar for proper sleep and unscheduled downtime to curb the temptation to burn the candle at both ends. Even enjoyable activities can run down our energy reserves if we aren’t mindful of maintaining balance, so practice checking in with yourself (and maybe your calendar, too) to see if you actually have the bandwidth for a commitment before you send in your RSVP.

Wednesday 5/8 – Bat  – Shifts are underway today and this is a wonderful thing! Embrace the changes that are taking place in your life as if you had prayed for them and release anything that doesn’t support your growth and fullest light. Trust that you are more than capable of meeting anything that comes your way and that anything that is removed from your life is only creating space for things that are more fully aligned with with who you are and who you are becoming.

Thursday 5/9 – Squirrel Reversed – You get to choose your perspective and how you want to frame your own experiences and this is especially important to remember when we fall into the trap of “not enoughness”. If you’ve been feeling a sense of lack in any area of your life, whether that’s externally or internally, challenge yourself to be a hunter for what is good and beautiful and going right in your life. If you can find even one thing that you are truly grateful for, immerse yourself in the tenderness and fulfillment that you receive from that experience. It is a simple practice, but a powerful one when it comes to shifting out of lack and negativity and into a place of fulfillment and joy.  

Friday 5/10 – Beaver Reversed – Are you protecting your investments--financially, of course, but just as importantly, your time and energy? So often, we set out goals and work towards them, but quietly engage in habits and activities that are counterproductive. A question to ask yourself today (and really, every day) as you make choices about how you spend your time, energy, and money is: Does this support the life I’m trying to create? Bringing that awareness to each of your choices can help you get clearer around places where you might be leaking energy and what shifts you might want to make in order to bring your life into greater alignment with your goals and values.

Saturday 5/11 – Prairie Dog – Invest in rest today, and not just time away from work, but truly deep restoration. Sleep in or take a nap midday. Spend the afternoon alone, with a journal, out in nature and unplugged from screens, or in meditation. Create a DIY spa treatment at home with a long soak in an epsom salt bath and then massage oils or body butter into your skin, really spending time loving up every inch of your body. Make yourself a nourishing meal and eat it in silence, slowly savoring every bite. Self care doesn’t have to be expensive or flashy; more than anything, it’s about the intention you infuse into your practices and the space you create to be truly present with yourself.

Sunday 5/12 – Spider – Close out the weekend with creativity! Dance, paint, write, sing, craft--just whatever you do, do it with joy, a sense of playfulness, and a focus on the process rather than on the end product. In fact, you might even try setting the intention to be sloppy and make a mess just to release yourself from any underlying drive towards perfectionism. If you allow it, your creative practice can be one of deep healing and release as well as a wonderful way to connect with your inner child and the sweet desires of your spirit. So find a medium that speaks to you, and dive in!

Weekly Forecast Monday April 29th, 2019

Monday 4/29 – Alligator Reversed - You can go through life lesson after life lesson but if you don’t take time to pause and take stock of your experiences then you miss the opportunity to celebrate your successes and to learn from your challenges. Allow yourself some time for stillness today so that you can process and integrate all that life has offered you. Also, if you’re confronted with a situation that brings up a big emotional response, take a beat and a deep breath before acting. Ask yourself how much of what you’re feeling is about what’s immediately in front of you and how much of what’s coming up for you is tied to an old wound. Does this situation feel uncannily similar to a painful experience from your past? If so then you’re being presented with an opportunity to heal it through feeling it. Once you’ve sorted out what’s old and what’s new, you’ll be able to respond from a much more grounded and wise place.

Tuesday 4/30 – Salmon - It’s time to return home, whatever that means to you. Maybe that’s a geographical location or maybe that’s simply your body and your heart space. Either way, we’re definitely being called to tune more deeply into our inner knowing and to honor its wisdom. If you are feeling drawn to a certain path but you find that you’re experiencing a lot of resistance on your journey, don’t worry. Pace yourself but keep going as long as your direction still feels aligned with the core of your being. You may be closer to your destination than you think. You came into this body at this particular time on this planet for a purpose. Only you can know what that is and only you can bring it to light. If you know what legacy you wish to leave behind when your days are done, make sure that you are allowing that knowing to guide you every single day. If you’re still trying to uncover that deeper purpose, ask yourself how you would spend your time if you had only one year left to live. Let the answers shape how you move through your days.

Wednesday 5/1 – Swan Reversed - Standing out can be uncomfortable for many of us, especially those of us who have experienced any sort of unkindness or mistreatment around the ways in which we are different, but it’s only through radical self-acceptance and authenticity that we are able to share our unique gifts with those around us. In fact, it is often our quirks and self-perceived “flaws” that hold the very medicine we are meant to bring into the world. If you’re struggling to embrace all of who you are and share it courageously with others, remember that by doing so, you give permission to those around you to do the same.

Thursday 5/2 – Butterfly – Life is made up of countless birth-death-birth cycles for each of us and it’s important to honor where we find ourselves in the present moment. What gifts does your particular phase of life hold? Perhaps you are even in different phases in different areas of your life! Your transformation is inevitable, so there’s no need to rush the process. Celebrate where you are at right now, knowing that it will shift in time.

Friday 5/3 – Antelope Reversed – Have you been feeling unmotivated, stalled out, or stuck in a place of indecision today? If so, the solution is to simply take action. A single step, no matter how small or uncertain can help you break through the inertia and get moving in the right direction. If you’re feeling trapped or disempowered, it’s time to get curious about where you might have more agency than you previously realized. At the very least, you get to be in choice around what perspective you hold and how you speak to yourself about your circumstances so start from the inside if you feel like you can’t change what’s going on externally.

Saturday 5/4 – Weasel Reversed – Check your intentions today and do your best to make sure that you’re bringing clear energy and integrity to everything you do. Even subtle forms of manipulation tend to have a boomerang effect and often come back around in the form of stress, complications, and entanglements. To avoid setting up a trap for yourself, simply be as straightforward and transparent as possible today. Even if you don’t get the response you were hoping for, you’ll know that you’re only receiving the things that were truly meant for you and you can rest easy knowing that you honored the free will of those around you. Nothing brings quite as much peace as a clear conscience.

Sunday 5/5 – Snake – Today is an especially ripe moment for any and all creative pursuits. If your chosen forms of expression have the added benefit of bringing more light and healing into the world then all the better! Don’t worry about whether your art is “good enough”; simply create for the pure joy of the process and as a way of opening yourself up to be a channel for Spirit. You might be surprised at what comes through you if you really allow yourself to drop in, let go of expectations, and move from a place of tenderness and honesty. No one else has your unique combination of gifts and perspective. Share them with the world generously today!

Weekly Forecast Monday April 15th, 2019

Monday 4/15 – Prairie Dog - Take some time out today and really nourish yourself in the most gentle ways possible. Avoid the tendency to fill up every minute of your free time with activities, no matter how many exciting or fun opportunities come your way. Truly deep restoration requires quiet, stillness, and space for yourself. It’s important to take time every once in a while to do a full reboot in order to keep all your systems running smoothly so, whether it’s for half an hour or the full day, go ahead and fully unplug.

Tuesday 4/16 – Bear - The softer energies continue today and the messages coming forward are around dropping into a place of introspection. There may be a need to be present with parts of yourself that you don’t often tend to, either out of over-busyness or maybe even a little bit of fear. There is nothing inside of you that you cannot face. Connect with your heart center, take a deep breath, and then bravely meet the parts of yourself that are waiting to be seen, acknowledged, and loved up.

Wednesday 4/17 – Raccoon - Don’t underestimate your ability to offer healing and support to those around you. The beauty in navigating challenging circumstances is being able to one day turn around and offer guidance and encouragement for others struggling with similar things. What have you come through? What have you conquered in your precious lifetime? Is there anyone around you who might benefit from the wisdom you’ve gleaned across these experiences? If so, be generous of spirit today and offer whatever support you can.

Thursday 4/18 – Swan Reversed – Grace requires embodiment; there’s really no way around that. How can we move with ease and harmony if we are disconnected from our bodies, our hearts, or our spirits? Inhabit yourself fully. Drop into the truth of who you are and let that shine out of your every pore. Anyone who is repelled by your light was never meant for you and the ones that are meant for you will flock to your energy like a beacon. This goes for opportunities as well, so do your best to let go of any tendencies to try to be anything other than who you truly are, and let that clarity simplify your life in the most incredible ways.

Friday 4/19 – Crow – In order to stand fully in our own light we have to be willing to embrace our own shadow as well, and the key to doing that effectively is first rooting deeply in compassion and self love. A little light-heartedness never hurts either. We can hold our challenges, our shortcomings, and the places where we still have lots of work to do with gentleness. In fact, to create true and deep healing, it’s absolutely necessary. Once you’re able to laugh, feel tenderness, and an opening to growth and expansion, rather than shame and contraction, you’ll know that you’re on your way to freedom.

Saturday 4/20 – Armadillo – Life and our needs are ever-changing so our boundaries must be dynamic as well. What worked for you two years ago or last month or yesterday, may no longer work for you today. Check in. Are there places where you can be more flexible? Are there boundaries that you’re finding to be too soft? This process is just as much about the boundaries you set with yourself as it is about the boundaries you express to others. And the key word in that sentence is “express”. People aren’t mind-readers so if you want them to honor your needs, you must first make sure that you’ve been clear about what they are.

Sunday 4/21 – Wolf Reversed – Don’t get sucked into the trap of thinking you have nothing left to learn or that no one else can offer you insights or wisdom. Absolutely everyone and everything can be your teacher if you only open yourself up to receive their unique perspectives and gifts. Children. Animals. Plants. Loved ones. Experiences. Even people and circumstances that we might wish desperately to be rid of hold a treasure. Don’t rob yourself of the opportunity to find it by remaining closed in your heart and/or mind. Live in a state of curiosity and you’ll find that there’s something new to learn absolutely every single day.
