Summer Solstice is the peak light... A celebration of vitality, abundance and life in all its glory.

But what if you're not feeling that?

What if you're in the process of shedding old layers, navigating uncertainty or finding your footing in a landscape that looks very different from the one you imagined at the beginning of the year?

Are you going to put yourself under pressure to be your brightest self?

Walking the Celtic Wheel isn't about contorting yourself to match a season.

It's an invitation to allow the medicine of summer solstice be a guide for wherever you find yourself in the season of your life.

There's something beautiful at Solstice where at the very height of its power... The Sun appears to stand still.

In a world that encourages more for the sake of more.. nature reminds us that there are moments when the most important thing you can do is pause...stand still...do nothing.

For there are moments in the cycle of life where we are suspended, waiting, anticipating... We cannot rush forward... We have to let the stillness shape us, work us.

But we can still receive from the medicine of Summer Solstice:

🌞 Let the warmth of the Sun bring relief to the parts that are tired
🌞 Let the light remind you of your own radiance that is always within, no matter how your external world is unfolding
🌞Let yourself feel and take in the beauty and abundance that is already here... Stop and notice it...breath it in
🌞 Let the lush fullness of the season remind you that growth will come again
🌞 Let the long bright days buoy your spirit

Even if you're in an autumn or winter phase of life.. look for the joy, the small moment of bright light, the blessings, the kindness... You are not just one thing - you are a magnificent multitude of selves, gathered through every season of your life.

As we meet the turning point on the Celtic Wheel of Summer Solstice on 21st June, its time to pause.

How are you meeting the energy of Summer Solstice?

What is alive within you?

How is nature speaking to you of radiance, power, growth, fullness and joy?

Are you soaking up all that life has to offer?

Can you open even more to life, to receiving light and life?

Access your inner child - play, be joyous, go on adventures and explore the vivid outer and inner landscapes.

Access your inner mother - know when to lay on the earth, swing in hammock, to lay down the tools and bask in the beauty of growth and expansion.

There is a different flavour to resting in summer than in winter. Winter is the deep retreat inwards, a closing away from the outer world so you can deeply listen to the inner dreaming.

Rest in summer reminds us to drink in these gloriously bright moments, to refuel for the path ahead so you don’t burn out or expend the fullness of your life force on projects / things that are not aligned to you and your soul.

It reminds us to celebrate and receive these times of expansion, growth and fullness as the sun reaches it’s peak.

Here at this turning point, we hear the faint tapping of the descent as there will be a gentle barely visible decline in light from this moment.

So while we are here, in this present moment, embrace the vibrancy of Summer Solstice.

Join Walk the Celtic Wheel at Summer Solstice to reconnect with your vitality, celebrate how far you've come and discover what life is asking if you at this season of your becoming.

Sweet Spring Equinox lifts the spirit as the growing light fills your being with joy, hope and relief.

Seeing the tiny buds on trees, the brightness of the plants emerging from the underground is a reassuring signal of new life.

The wheel turns, nothing stays the same forever even if our minds thinks it will.

Nature reflects to is the beauty of rebirth and renewal.

It's time to let the tender call of emergence guide your way forward but don't forget the wisdom you earned in your wintering.

Can you let yourself be carried forward by the pulse of new growth?

Can you allow the rebirth to unfold at its own natural pace?

Can you lean into trust and faith as you move towards gentle action and listen to your rising creative enerfy?

Remember where there is uncertainty, anything is possible.

There's no need to rush or force movement. Take tine to pause, reorientate and move gentle into the medicine of Spring Equinox.

So many of my clients are standing at the edge of their rebirth... one foot still in what was and the other not quite landed in what's next. 

They are shedding roles, identities and stories that no longer fit them... they are learning to find their centre on unsteady ground... And beneath it athey also feel excited by the potential held within the rebirth.

What's needed here isn't achieved through forcing or pushing but witnessing and honoring...

Spring Equinox is a time of rebirth and renewal, when what has been forming beneath the surface begins to take shape.

This Spring Equinox ceremony invites you to honor what has been shaped in you, what has been refined and completed so you can reclaim your power and energy from what you are leaving behind. It also invites you to name what you are ready to cultivate, embody and step into.

This ceremony is for those who can feel that something has shifted...where the old skin feels too right...where you are navigating the in-between and are ready to reclaim lost parts of yourself and step forward intentionally onto your path.

Rebirth doesn't have to be messy....just as nature teases us with the first buds of Spring, you too are being called to soften into the growth that's waiting for you.

You don't need to reinvent yourself or become someone completely new, you're being invited to reveal more of what's already within you..

During our ceremony, we'll:

- Attune our hearts through a blue lotus tea ceremony to listen for what is ready to emerge

- Journey to retrieve the energy you've left behind in old roles, expectations, projects, obligations, jobs, relationships

- Give space in ritual to receive the wisdom of the Morrigan and the land to honor your personal cycle of life-death-rebirth.

- Create space for integration so the shifts can be anchored

It's time to cross the threshold between what was and who and what you're ready to embody.

Are you ready to reclaim your vitality, restore balance and consciously step forward into this next cycle?

Can you feel it? Something inside you is shifting as the lifeforce is gently returning to the land. It's the sweet taste of renewed energy. 

Spring equinox is a powerful moment to invite renewal & rebirth in, as it connects us with the direction of the East...the place of the natural cycles of life-death-rebirth...of beginnings ..fresh perspective...deep insight

Just as nature teases us with the sweet first buds of spring, the signs of new life…. you too are being called to soften into your unfolding. Let's come together to celebrate this opportunity for regeneration and balance.

What if renewal is more than solely stepping into something new.

What if it’s about learning to stop resisting where you are so you can nurture your becoming, trust your unfolding & embrace growth.

This circle is a sacred pause at Spring Equinox to ask ‘What parts of yourself are ready to be released so you can feel a greater inner harmony and what authentic version of you is ready to emerge?’

I’ve navigated many thresholds in my life. Some invited me to lean into growth, expansion, rebirth while others invited me to sit closer to death, grief and regeneration. 

After each stage, there was who I was before crossing the threshold and who I was after.

The thresholds looked like:
- navigating burnout
- leaving accountancy
- starting my own business
- walking the shamanic path
- death of my grandfather
- letting go of teaching reiki 
- perimenopause
- caring for a loved one

And each one of them asked something of me...

In this week's podcast episode, I speak about what thresholds are, why they feel uncomfortable, why it's normal to want to rush through them, why they feel uncomfortable and why you might have an urge to burn it all to the ground.

Can you let thresholds guide you back to your authentic self... the core essence of who you are beneath your roles, stories and wounding?

And what is the cost of avoiding the initiation they hold?

If you're standing at the edge... wondering whether to cross the threshold this episode is for you.

An Cailleach brings you to the threshold of Imbolc, you reach across your hands to be greeted by Goddess Brigid.

It’s time to move from your inner cave and gently emerge into the world. You carry with you the wisdom, dreaming and visioning gifted and earned through winter. You allow these tender seedlings to enter your creative heart.

Do not rush this process of emerging. Let yourself taste it fully.

Winter has ‘worked’ on you, mourn what is lost and can’t come forward. Then let the fresh breeze of Imbolc bring life back into the parts of you that are needed in this coming cycle.

Now is the time to remember the roots you’ve fortified and allow small movements outward to new life.

What gifts of wisdom does Brigid, the Soulsmith, healer and poet, wish to share with you at this turning point of the Celtic Wheel, Imbolc?

This is your invitation to join my upcoming events to receive guidance from Goddess Brigid, snowdrops and Imbolc... Find out they can support you on your path.

Imbolc the place of beginnings...

It's the gentle call to move from the deep holding of the element of earth to allow the whisps of the element of air to feed inspiration and the breathing in of life... Inviting you, like the gentle snowdrops, to begin to slowly emerge from your deep rest.

What have you received from your wintering?

It's the place of Goddess Brigid who teaches us how to tend the perpetual flame of our soul. The waters of her wells shows is how to nourish our bodies. She who protects is with her mantle as she encourage us to forge our own path forward.

Where are you being called to direct your precious energy?

Imbolc, a time of hope and hidden potential... Can you let your winter dreams take root... Will you protect them, incubate them, tend them and allow them to unfold in their divine timing?

I've been walking the Celtic Wheel for over 12 years and with each spiral I learn more about myself, my relationship with the life-death-rebirth cycle and how to move through life... How to meet life.

There is always space to go deeper into the medicine of Imbolc.

You're invited to Walk the Celtic Wheel, an online circle on Thurs 29th Jan ar 7pm (Irish time). An evening of guided meditation, reiki healing, ritual and integration designed to support you where you are in your life... let's bring forth the medicine of Imbolc into your daily life.

This is about embodiment, direct experience and not just information.

You'll also receive additional resources in the course platform to guide you from Imbolc to Spring Equinox.

The Celtic Wheel helps you to identify where you are currently in life... It's map that teaches you how to move with the cycles of life... To respond rather than react unconsciously.... To enter into relationship with the land around you.

And Imbolc is inviting you into relationship with tender beginnings... To discern which dream seeds emerging from your wintering are ready to be carried forward... To be incubated in the creative fire of your inner cauldrons... But also to be nourished by Brigid's well waters.

It's easy to rush ahead into new beginnings and scatter your energy... This shamanic ceremony is an invitation to slow down and listen to what dreama and desires are emerging... To tend your inner fire of inspiration, courage and slow intentional action.

We will gather in ceremony at Brigid's hearth, with a warm cup of Snowdrop and Blue Lotus tea to support you release the winter cloak, opening you to the joyful potential and hope within...

Sit with Goddess Brigid who will share her fire blessing and wisdom to ignite the fire in your belly, the passion in your heart and the inspiration in your head.

Emerge from our ceremony with a spring in your step, lighter in heart and bring and with clarity for the path forward.

We'll gather in the magical grounds of - a place that renews your spirit as you walk to our venue.

This ceremony is crafted from my 12 years training with

In the darkness, we rest and trust that in the emptiness something will emerge....

But we need to take space to let ourselves truly hear what Spirit and our Soul is asking of us... What the great web of life is asking from us.

To listen and feel the difference between what the heart and the mind desires.

We take space to make room for clarity to take root.

On Tuesday 6th Jan, we gather in sacred ceremony with our plant ally Rose, to sit in the emptiness and listen for what is looking to emerge from within.

We won't create a list of goals to add to that never ending to-do list... We'll be exploring what a meaningful life means to you.

We'll sit at our inner fire with the question of 'what are you being called to create, contribute or experience in this season of your life.'

As different Seasons, ask different things from us.

It's time to lay down the over-thinking, perfectionism and waiting for the 'right' moment to take action...

Instead, let curiosity, progress, experimentation and your heart lead the way... Trust yourself to begin and know that you can readjust and course correct at any stage.

You're invited to the Crossing the Threshold opening ceremony on 6th Jan 7-9pm (Irish time).. an evening of ceremony, ritual and meditation.

You'll also have access, in the course material, to our closing ceremony, earth based rituals, meditations and workbooks to do in the comfort of your home - all designed to help you reflect and get clear in where you've come from and you are going.
