Happy Thanksgiving, beautiful souls!✨
I pulled from the Mystical Shaman Oracle a powerful deck created by Alberto Villoldo, Colette Baron-Reid, and Marcella Lobos.
May the guidance that comes through offer you insight, grounding, and a touch of magic no matter where you are today.

Card 1: The Heart of the Sky
This is the purest reminder that your life is co-authored with Spirit.
On this Thanksgiving, a new vision is being given to you one that comes from a place beyond fear, beyond limitation, beyond the past.
The Heart of the Sky asks you to trust what you feel rising.
You are being guided toward creation, possibility, and alignment. Remember that you are not responsible for everything and everyone, you do not have to do everything all on your own. You can open the door and set yourself free in an instant.
What you dream now begins to take form.

Card 2: The Sun
A blessing of warmth, clarity, and renewal surrounds you.
The Sun brings illumination to your path, lifting heaviness and reconnecting you with a deeper joy.
Today, notice what feels bright even in small ways and let it remind you that your spirit is stronger than the shadows you’ve walked through.
This card affirms: You are stepping into a season of growth, truth, and golden support. Life is calling you to shine your light and to add your lightness and humor to the seriousness around you, Get out and Play!

🍁 Card 3: The Smoky Mirror

The Smoky Mirror appears when you are being asked to look beyond illusion the stories, fears, or patterns that have kept you doubting your own power. On this Thanksgiving, you’re being invited into clarity:
What is real is your soul, your intuition, and the path you’re carving with intention.
The smoke clears when you remember who you are. No matter where you are on your journey, know that some things are meant to be a mystery, which you are only meant to understand through experience. Don’t let fears cloud your vision.
A revelation, realization, or shift is close trust what’s being shown.

Take a breath, tune in, and choose the card that’s calling you 1, 2, or 3.
I’ll share the messages tomorrow for Thanksgiving. 🤎

This morning started in the most unexpected way.
My older dog, Phoebe, woke me at 6am pulling me straight out of a deep sleep and a dream about a huge bear. I stumbled awake, still half in that dream, only to realize she needed to go out now. So there I was, bleary-eyed, opening the door to pouring rain. Absolutely not how I wanted to start my morning… and yet, as she stepped outside, something in me softened.
Phoebe is older, and not long ago she got into medicine she shouldn’t have. It gave us a huge scare one of those moments that reminds you just how quickly life can shift. And as I stood there in the rain, watching her move slowly but steadily, I felt grateful. Grateful that she’s still here to wake me up inconveniently. Grateful for the simple, ordinary moment of caring for her.
Now I’m sitting in a quiet house, waiting for my coffee, with a little unexpected space to write. And this moment feels symbolic of the entire year.
2025 has been a year of intense transformation within myself, in my relationships, and in the deeper layers of my life. So much of it has been hard, stretching, gut-level honest… and yet woven through have been extraordinary moments of clarity, connection, and grace. Life really can change in an instant, and suddenly the whole landscape looks different.
I’m especially grateful for the space I’m in now with my kids and my mom. It feels like a liminal window a sacred in-between and one I know will shift again in the year ahead. Life moves us along such a winding road, full of challenges and blessings, and somehow both shape us equally.
This Thanksgiving will be the first in many years that I’m not hosting. Hosting was always my favorite, having my home full of family brought me so much joy. This year, I’ll be going to a friend’s house. I’m truly happy to spend the day with them… and I’ll miss having my kids with me, too.
Life can be so dualistic like that, joy and ache, gratitude and longing, endings and beginnings all braided together.
Even with the changes, even with the unfamiliar shape of this holiday, I’m grateful. When I feel stressed, I mentally run through what I hold deep gratitude for: my family, my friends, my fur babies, the home we have, my incredible community and clients. I’m grateful to be able to do the work I do and for my connection to Spirit.
If you took the time to read this, I’m grateful for you, too.
Wherever you find yourself this Thanksgiving in celebration, in transition, in healing, in the quiet, or holding the ache of missing those who’ve passed may you feel the small, steady moments of grace that remind you you’re right where you need to be.🌟 🐾

Wisdom from the Grandmothers!🙌

November 14, 2025 Newsletter

Is This Good for Me?
~The Great Council of the Grandmothers

Always ask this question,” the Grand Mothers said: “Is this good for me? Ask yourself, does this feel good, or does that feel good? Ask the question and then pay attention to how you feel. Your body will let you know the answer. This question is important because what is truly good for you, is good for everyone. When you choose what is right for you, you feed your own heart and you feed the heart of the Universe.

“Contrary to what you may have been taught,” they said, “you are not separate from one another. You’re not really separate from anyone or anything, and because you aren’t, what serves you, always serves others too.

“Many of you were told that paying attention to what is right for you, choosing what pleases and suits you is selfish. That you should always think of others and not be focusing on yourself. But we tell you that the opposite is true. Whatever it is that truly fills your heart and makes you content, makes you feel peaceful and happy, also fills the hearts of the people in your life. Your own deep happiness graces everyone and everything.

“Choose happiness for yourself and choose it also because your joy will light many candles. Let the love and happiness within you shine,” the Grandmothers said. “Let it shine and don’t hold it back. Choose happiness and once you have chosen it, then let it flow from you to multiply itself all over the Earth. It is your nature to live like this,” they said, “to live in light and to spread light. It’s your nature to be the Beacon you were born to be.

So ask,” they said, “‘Is this good for me?’ and then proceed.”

✨ Raising a sensitive or intuitive child is a gift and a responsibility.
These kids feel deeply, see beneath the surface, and move through the world with a wisdom far beyond their years.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your child is intuitive or how to support their big feelings and big energy this article is for you. 💛

I believe more and more children are arriving on this planet with extraordinary sensitivity.
