The March Full Moon is known as the Worm Moon.

Traditionally, it marks the softening of the earth as it begins to thaw. Worms return to the soil. Roots awaken. What has been dormant begins to stir beneath the surface. It is a moon of emergence, transition and quiet but undeniable change.

And yet… even as the world awakens, we are only perceiving a fraction of what is truly here.

Neuroscience tells us that our minds filter out the vast majority of incoming information, reducing an overwhelming stream of data to something manageable. We see less than 1% of the light spectrum. We hear less than 1% of the sound available around us. Our brains function as predictive machines, constantly interpreting and simplifying reality so we can move through it.

Which means there is an entire world we are not seeing.

Deep trance is a way of stepping outside that predictive loop. A way of softening the filters. A way of entering spaces where the usual laws of the physical world loosen and expand. Where time bends. Where insight arises from somewhere deeper than thought.

This is what we explore at our Deep Trance Full Moon Experience.

Under the energy of the Worm Moon, as the earth awakens, we journey inward and beyond. Meditation. Detachment. Dimensional travel. A returning to the unseen.

🌙 WEEKLY THREE CARD REVEAL 🌙

Every Thursday we post a three card pull.
You choose 1, 2, or 3. Comment your card and share the post to be entered into our weekly draw for a free oracle deck.

We reveal the readings the following Wednesday.

Here is this week’s guidance…

✨ Card One – New Moon in Libra
A new cycle around balance and relationships is beginning. This is an invitation to look honestly at reciprocity in your life. Where are you overextending yourself to keep the peace? Where might you need clearer boundaries? Libra energy seeks harmony, but not at the cost of truth. Alignment in relationships begins with self-respect.

✨ Card Two – Full Moon
Something is reaching fullness. A situation, emotion, or realization is ready to be seen clearly. The Full Moon asks for surrender. Not giving up, but releasing the need to control the outcome. Let what has been building come into the light. Clarity brings relief.

✨ Card Three – Full Moon in Capricorn
The end of a tough cycle approaches. Capricorn carries discipline, responsibility, and long-term vision. If you’ve been carrying weight or working quietly toward something meaningful, this card acknowledges your effort. Stay steady. The pressure has shaped you. Completion is closer than you think.

🌕 The Moon moves in phases. So do we.

Congratulations to this week’s deck winner: Lana Mulcaster 🎉
Please message us to arrange pick up.

We’ll see you Thursday for the next pull.

🌸 OSTARA Spring Equinox Candle 🌿

Pre-Orders Now Open

On March 21 we welcome Ostara, the Spring Equinox. It is the moment in the year when day and night stand in perfect balance.

Ostara is a celebration of renewal. Of seeds stirring beneath the soil. Of light returning. Of possibility unfolding.

It is a sacred turning point between what was and what is ready to bloom.

To honour this shift, we have created our Ostara Candle. Each one is hand-poured in small batches using 100% soy wax and a carefully blended spring fragrance.

Bergamot and Fir
French Lavender
Green Tea

Fresh greens. Gentle florals. Soft returning light.

This candle was crafted to support intention setting, new beginnings, balance, and alignment. Light it on the Equinox, during meditation, journaling, or as you plant seeds for the season ahead.

14 oz $28.99 + HST

Limited quantities available.
Pre-order to reserve your candle here:

Pick up begins March 8th.

Welcome the returning sun. 🌱

🌿Sunday Reflections: The Discipline of Turning Toward🌿

This week I found myself listening to a Buddhist monk speak about spending four years in retreat. Four years largely in silence. Four years without distraction, without performance, without the subtle escape routes we all keep close at hand.

What stayed with me was not the austerity of it. It was what he said about suffering.

He described learning that acceptance is not resignation. It is not suppression. It is not coating pain in spiritual language and calling it growth. Real acceptance, he said, required him to go into the suffering. To move toward it with awareness instead of away from it in fear.

To feel it fully.

There is a difference between experiencing pain and resisting pain. Most of what exhausts us is not the original wound, but the constant effort to outrun it. The tightening. The bracing. The subtle internal argument with reality.

We say we want peace, but often what we mean is comfort.

Peace is not the absence of discomfort. It is the absence of war.

When we refuse what is present, we fracture ourselves. One part of us feels. Another part criticizes the feeling. Another part tries to fix it. And suddenly we are divided within our own being.

Going into suffering is an act of integration.

It requires a steadiness that does not collapse into the emotion, but also does not exile it. It asks us to sit at the edge of our own fear and not flinch. To let grief be grief. To let anger burn without turning it into identity. To let anxiety tremble without deciding it defines us.

This is not indulgence. It is intimacy.

We live in a culture that has mastered avoidance. We distract brilliantly. We optimise our way around discomfort. Even our spiritual practices can become tools for escape — meditate to eliminate anxiety, breathe to override anger, affirm to silence doubt.

But what if the practice is not about removal, but relationship?

The monk spoke of discovering that when he stopped negotiating with his pain, something softened. Not because the pain disappeared, but because the resistance did. The energy once spent fighting was reclaimed. In its place, there was space. And in that space, compassion.

For himself. For others. For the shared vulnerability of being human.

There is a profound humility in turning toward what hurts. It dismantles the illusion that we can curate our inner lives the way we curate our outer ones. It reveals that strength is not control, but capacity. The capacity to remain.

To remain in the body when it aches.
To remain in the heart when it cracks open.
To remain present when the instinct is to flee.

Acceptance is not passive. It is a disciplined surrender. It is saying, “This is here,” without collapsing into “This is who I am.”

Perhaps the deeper work is not transcending our humanity, but inhabiting it completely. Not rising above suffering, but meeting it so fully that it no longer governs us from the shadows.

This week, instead of asking how to fix what feels uncomfortable, perhaps we ask a quieter question:

Can I stay?

Not to solve.
Not to improve.
Not to escape.

Just to turn toward.

And discover that what we feared might undo us is, in fact, the doorway to wholeness.

May you be blessed,
Rev. Kim Etherington
