Ten of Swords — The Closing of a Cycle (End of 2025)

The Ten of Swords rarely shows up unless something truly needs to be finished.
As we exit 2025, this card marks:

1. A Final Ending

Something that has dragged on — emotionally, mentally, or energetically — reaches a complete finish.
This isn’t a soft ending; it’s a hard stop.
You’re done giving energy to what depletes you.

2. No More Illusions

The Ten of Swords cuts through denial.
If someone has shown repeated patterns, the card says:

Believe what they’ve shown you.

Stop carrying what isn’t yours.

There’s a clarity here that is sharp but freeing.

3. Release of Old Pain

This card often marks the final layer of an emotional wound.
It can feel dramatic in the moment, but it is actually the moment before rebirth.

The sun is rising in the background of the card — meaning:
You’re already moving into the light.

4. Leaving a Pattern Behind

The theme is breaking the cycle:

People pleasing

Over-giving

Exhaustion

Being the one to hold everything together

Letting others drain your energy

2025 asked a lot of you.
2026 asks for new boundaries and new identity energy.

Here I stand, beside the grave of Hannah O'Shea, my great-grandmother. In the mid-1800s, she and her sister Mary Ann left the rolling green hills of Millstreet, County Cork, Ireland, crossing oceans to seek a new life in New Zealand. Amidst hardship and uncertainty, she carried hope, resilience, and love.

Though Hannah passed young, in 1896, her spirit endures—guiding, watching, and connecting us across time. Standing here, I feel the invisible threads that link past and present, a quiet reminder that our ancestors’ courage and dreams live on within us. If you have family that have passed, you can connect through the silence.🌿✨

✨ “Is He Thinking of Me?” — The Most Common Question I Hear… ✨

You wouldn’t believe how often people call through for readings and whisper the same tender question:

“Is he thinking of me?”

Behind those words is a heart that’s hoping, hurting, or holding onto something precious.
And let me tell you — you’re not alone. We all reach that moment where we wonder if the person we care about is feeling the same tug on their spirit.

But here’s the magic I see every day:

💫 When someone is truly meant for you, the energy never lies.
It shows in the cards, in the messages, in the shifts around you — and in the way your intuition nudges you, even on days you try to ignore it.

💫 When someone is not showing up, spirit will gently redirect you — not to punish you, but to protect your heart and bring you back to your power.

Remember:

• You deserve love that’s clear, not confusing.
• You deserve effort, not excuses.
• You deserve someone who thinks of you without you having to ask.

So if you find yourself wondering, “Is he thinking of me?”
Try asking yourself another question:

“Am I thinking of me?”
Am I honouring my worth? My peace? My growth?

Spirit always meets you there. 💛

If you’re feeling unsure, stuck between hope and clarity, I’m here.

🌕 Full Moon Magic This Thursday 🌩️

Thunder and lightning are stirring here in Auckland as we move into the next phase with tomorrow’s Full Moon! This luminous moon invites you to pause, celebrate yourself, and honour all that you’ve accomplished this year—the small wins, the big wins, and every little step in between. ✨

Gently release what no longer serves you—those goals or energies that feel heavy, unlikely, or simply not meant for you anymore.

It’s vital to ground yourself, whether you tiptoe through the tulips… or the weeds (in my case 🌱). Drag your bath outside—or even hop into the dog bath, birdbath, or in this weather, a big puddle! Do some moon gazing, even if the moon hides from you.

Set your intentions with kindness and gratitude. Remember: release, refresh, and shine on. Don’t let mid-December bring up past conflicts or old angst—release it now.

With love and light,
Mindful Journeys with Brigid 🌙

🍓✨ Expectation vs Reality...

I ordered a stunning bowl of summer fruit through Hello Fresh – you know, those bright, juicy, feel-good photos that scream fresh and happy? ☀️🍑

Well… what arrived was the complete opposite 😬 Rotten and disappointing. Definitely not the summer vibes I ordered!

Sometimes convenience isn’t so convenient.
