✨ 12 Universal Laws & Your Birth Chart ✨
A 6-Week Journey into Cosmic Alignment with Twyla

There are patterns that shape our lives long before we learn the language for them.

Beyond astrology trends.
Beyond manifestation buzzwords.
Beyond what’s currently popular.

There are Universal Laws, timeless principles like Attraction, Vibration, Rhythm, Action, Cause & Effect that have always been at work.

Beginning Wednesday, March 4th at 6:00pm, Twyla will be guiding a 6-week immersive journey exploring how these 12 Universal Laws live inside your unique astrology birth chart.

This isn’t theory.

This is about seeing:
• Why certain patterns repeat
• Why specific challenges activate you
• Where your natural flow already exists
• And how to consciously align instead of pushing against life

Over 6 weeks (2 Laws per class), you’ll explore how each Universal Law weaves through your houses and planets with reflection, discussion, journaling, and grounded integration practices.

If the group feels called to go deeper, the journey may expand into a 12-session experience, focusing on one Law at a time.

🌙 This class includes:

• Live teaching + group discussion
• Your personal birth chart as our guide
• Worksheets + journaling prompts
• Affirmations + crystal correspondences
• Practical tools to shift stuck energy

This circle is for those who:

✨ Want astrology to feel practical, not abstract
✨ Are ready to move beyond surface-level manifestation teachings
✨ Desire deeper self-awareness and alignment
✨ Feel called to understand the “why” behind their patterns

When you understand where these Laws live in your chart, you stop fighting yourself.

You begin working with the current.

✨ Energy Exchange: $222.22
✨ Held in the Essence Edge Classroom
✨ Limited seating for depth and connection

If you feel the nudge, trust it.

Lately I’ve been noticing a pattern in conversations, in the shop, and in my own reflections. So many people have done so much to try and feel better… Sessions, Tools, Practices, Modalities and Years of genuinely trying. And yet the pain, the anxiety, the anger… it still lingers.

I don’t think this means anything has failed. And I don’t think it means anyone has done it “wrong.” I wonder if many of us were simply never taught the difference between relief and healing.

Relief can feel like progress… It softens the edges, It gives us a break, It helps us function again.

Healing, though, asks something quieter. It asks us to stay, to feel, to be with what arises when nothing is fixing or changing it. That’s not easy. And it’s not something most of us were shown how to do, especially in a world that rewards movement, productivity, and “doing the work.”

This isn’t about abandoning tools or practices, they can be beautiful supports. It’s about noticing how we’re using them.nAre they helping us be more present? Or helping us avoid what’s asking to be felt?

I don’t have answers wrapped up in a bow. Just a question I’ve been sitting with: What might shift if healing didn’t look like searching for the next thing but learning how to be with ourselves, exactly as we are?

For those who feel this tug, I’ve been holding a deeper reflection on this in Patreon a longer teaching for those who want to sit with it more slowly, in a quieter space.

🌙✨🌿New Arrivals 🌿✨🌙

As I unpacked them, I felt called to share something. Essence Edge has never really been just “a crystal shop.” We don’t follow the mass trends. We don’t stock in bulk. We don’t line shelves with duplicates just to fill space.

What arrives here does so intuitively, Seasonally, In conversation with the moment we’re in. Each piece is chosen one by one… held, felt, listened to. Some arrive quietly, Some arrive with presence, Some wait until the timing feels right.

I don’t order crystals to meet demand. I order them in relationship. That’s why you’ll find a wide range of shapes, colors, and frequencies instead of rows of the same thing. That’s why the energy feels layered instead of loud. That’s why people often say they feel something shift the moment they walk through the door.

This space wasn’t built from a business plan.
It was built intuitively the same way the crystals are chosen. To be a place that feels safe. A place that feels held. A place that invites creativity, healing, and honest expression.

If you’ve been here before, you already understand. If you’re new… welcome! The pieces that are meant for you always arrive when the time is right. 🌿

✨ Valentine’s Week at Essence Edge ✨

Valentine’s Day isn’t just about romance. It’s about attention. Presence. The way we choose to show care for others and ourselves.

This week carries a softer, reflective energy.
One that asks us to slow down, feel what’s true, and choose with intention rather than obligation.

Inside the shop, we’ve curated pieces that aren’t about grand gestures, but about meaning. Crystals chosen for connection and clarity
Candles for warmth, devotion, and self-return
Small gifts that say “I see you” without needing many words

Whether you’re honoring a partner, a friendship, a ritual with yourself, or simply the season of the heart, there’s something here meant to meet you where you are.

This week, let love be:

✨ thoughtful
✨ grounded
✨ real

We’ll be sharing gift ideas and energy notes throughout the week💕

Lately, I’ve been noticing the same themes surface again and again in chart readings across different ages, paths, and life circumstances.

People aren’t necessarily in crisis…they’re not falling apart, but something is shifting. There’s a quiet fatigue around carrying too much for too long. A growing intolerance for roles, expectations, or responsibilities that drain rather than support and a sense that intuition is changing… moving from sensitivity and feeling everything, into something more embodied, directional, and self-trusting.

Many are asking versions of the same questions:
Am I supposed to wait or act? Is this the year to change something or to stabilize? Why does growth feel tied to boundaries instead of pushing harder?nWhy do I feel restless even when things look “fine”?

What I keep noticing as I move through these charts is that this year isn’t really about rushing anything. It’s more about learning how to tell the difference between what actually needs your attention and what doesn’t anymore.

This is a threshold year, one where long cycles are closing and new ones are just beginning. Growth is possible, but it comes through clarity, honesty, and sustainable choices, not through forcing outcomes or overriding your limits.

That’s the space these readings are meant to support. Not to predict, Not to give fear-based answers, but orientation… helping you see where you’ve been, what’s no longer yours to carry, and how this year is actually asking you to move.

If you’ve been feeling that quiet internal nudge, the sense that something is rearranging itself beneath the surface than a chart-based reading can offer a grounded way to understand where that’s coming from and how to work with it consciously.

I’m fully caught up on readings at the moment, which means turnaround time is short. If this feels supportive for where you’re at, you can click the link below to order.

🪄🌿 More magic underway in the herb room 🌿🪄

This space keeps revealing what it wants to become.

More projects are in motion, and the herb room is moving into its next layer of intention and function. One of the pieces I’m most excited about right now is adding pegboards to the opposite wall a working wall, not just a display.

These pegboards will soon be home to small packets of individual spell herbs, each thoughtfully labeled with their magical properties. A way to explore, choose, and work with the plants intuitively… whether you’re crafting a spell jar, dressing a candle, or simply learning how different herbs carry their energy.

This room isn’t about rushing things to the finish line. It’s about building a space that supports hands-on magic, curiosity, and connection to the earth… piece by piece, shelf by shelf, herb by herb.

Sharing an updated glimpse of the herb room as it continues to take shape. More to come as the shelves fill, labels are written, and the plants find their places.

✨ At the Threshold: A Return to Metaphysical Study

This series is for those who feel like they’re standing between worlds, between what they were taught and what they feel, between belief and experience, between curiosity and confusion.

We’ll be exploring what metaphysical actually means… not as a belief system, but as a study of meaning, consciousness, symbolism, intuition, and how humans relate to the unseen.

We’ll talk about things like:

* Why metaphysical tools became feared or over-mystified
* How authority and certainty get projected onto symbols
* The difference between discernment and outsourcing intuition
* How fear quietly replaces understanding
* And how to return these ideas back into the body and lived experience

Tarot, crystals, astrology, ritual tools….yes. But also psychology, nervous system awareness, history, and context. This series will evolve throughout the year.

What begins as written reflections on Patreon will slowly expand into:

* in-person conversations
* classes and study groups
* workshops at Essence Edge
* and offerings designed to support learning, not dependency

Patreon is where these deeper conversations will live first, as a quieter space to think, question, unlearn, and study together.

If you’ve ever felt drawn to metaphysical ideas but overwhelmed by fear, conflicting narratives, or pressure to “believe the right thing” this space was created with you in mind. You don’t need to be an expert. You don’t need the language. You don’t need to have it figured out.

Curiosity is enough. ✨🪄

When Survival Patterns Become Identity

I recently came across this video talking about “normal habits that are actually trauma responses.” Things like over-explaining, people-pleasing, hypervigilance, never asking for help, always expecting the worst.

And it stopped me, not because it was new information, but because it named something I’ve seen repeat in almost every space I’ve moved through my entire life. Including myself.

For a long time, I lived inside those patterns too.
I masked. I over-explained. I anticipated needs before they were spoken. I learned how to stay “safe” by staying agreeable, alert, and useful.

Those habits didn’t mean something was wrong with me, they meant something once happened where those strategies kept me protected. But here’s the part that doesn’t get talked about enough. When we don’t heal these patterns, they don’t just remain habits, they quietly become identity.

And when someone does the work to heal them, when their masks come down, when they start communicating clearly and directly…it can feel deeply threatening to those still living inside survival mode. Not because directness is harmful, but because it removes the familiar dance.

When you stop over-explaining, people who rely on over-explaining feel exposed. When you stop people-pleasing, those used to emotional labor feel abandoned. When you stop cushioning truth, those who survive through hypervigilance feel unsafe.

So the healed person becomes “too much,” “cold,” “intimidating,” or “triggering.” Not because they changed for the worse, but because the unspoken agreements changed.

This is where the vicious cycle lives. Unhealed trauma patterns seek familiarity, not health. They recognize each other instantly. They bond through unspoken rules, emotional scanning, and mutual accommodation. And when someone steps out of that system, it can feel like rejection, even when it isn’t.

I want to say this clearly, and gently: These habits are not flaws, they are intelligent survival responses. But they are not meant to be permanent residences. Healing doesn’t mean becoming harsh or unkind. It means becoming clear. It means letting communication be honest instead of strategic. It means letting relationships be mutual instead of managed.

If any of this stirs something in you, pause before judging yourself or anyone else. Awareness is not condemnation, it’s an invitation.

And no one has to be ready at the same time.

Do you over-explain everything? Refuse to ask for help even when you're struggling? Can't say no without feeling guilty? These aren't just quirks—they're tra...

🪞 Why Everything Feels So Divided Right Now

Something has shifted… not out there, but within us. This isn’t a divide of sides. It’s a divide of awareness.

If you’re feeling unsettled, heavy, or more sensitive than usual… you’re not broken.

You’re becoming conscious.

✨ Who You’re Becoming - 2026 Chart-Based Readings ✨

Lately, I’ve been hearing the same thing from so many people: “I feel like something is shifting… but I can’t quite name it.”

Which makes sense… 2026 isn’t a typical year. It follows a long stretch of deep internal change for many, years of shedding, recalibrating, and quietly becoming someone new beneath the surface. This year marks the beginning of a different chapter.

Who You’re Becoming is a chart-based reading designed to help you understand what cycle you’ve just moved through, what’s being stirred in your life now and how the larger astrology of 2026 is interacting with your chart specifically

These readings aren’t predictive or fear-based. They’re about orientation. Seeing the bigger picture so you can move through the year with more clarity, steadiness, and self-trust instead of reaction.

You’ll receive your reading as a typed document, so you can move through it at your own pace and return to it as the year unfolds. There’s also an optional Integration Edition for those who want deeper reflection and practical ways to work consciously with the year ahead.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re standing on a threshold, this reading was created for that space. More info & options available on my website
