Scorpio Season Incoming.

If you think summer was a chaotic barbecue of unpredictabilityand confusion, believe me you haven't seen anything yet.

I'm not going to lie, it's going to be a hell of an autumn. If you're also here in the UK, you may already be noticing this energy showing up in theabject chaos and death spiral vibe of the economic and political landscape... (#therearenocoincidences)

As a proud solar Scorpio, I'm often heard proclaiming that nobody does scorched earth, revolution, evolution and metamorphosisbetter. And I most certainly stand by that. This Scorpio season virtually sweats a torturous, disoriented pain-pleasure vibe that belongs in Twin Peaks rather than your friendlylocal horoscope. It's going to be a broken old washing machine of a season, with all sorts of astrological fireworks and a few truly excruciating moments of being stripped bare in a spotlight. But my god if you can take it, the intensity and potential is just... well, delicious.

The really good news is that after an early autumn that's had the handbrake stuck (at one point we had 6 planets in simultaneous retrograde) this Scorpio season will be all about quantum. The other day I described the incoming astrologyas a zodiac moment that's had four cans of Red Bull and a pack of pro-plus before hitting the dancefloor on the closing night in Ibiza. Sohopefully that illustrates the vibe...

Scroll down if you'd like to understand more detail about the specific astrology around this season, but even if you're happy to keep it at surface level, just know that whatever has been stubbornly stuck, heavy and unhelpful is about to get thrown under a bus and out of your way. So it's a really exciting time to get pedal to the metal and moving forwards with some big personal transformation. To be honest, it will be hard to do much else!

I'll be changing the way I send newsletters to you next time round - you don't need to do anything, but you'll have some new options to either continue receiving the free newsletter or to join a new community online which will be rich in connection and conversation and contain much more content across the wider landscape of what I do - more tutorials, practical tools, guided meditations, accessible bitesize sound journeys and much more. So stay tuned for Substack!

I'll also be bringing back online sound journeys, and I can't think of a better time to start than eclipse season, so scroll down to join usfor an ONLINE new moon in Scorpio x Eclipse event on 25th October.

After a very tricky personal time that requires some major restabilising of health, finances and energy, I'm going to be taking some deep breaths away from Cornwall and nestling in the safety ofhome. Which means I am AT LONG LASTgetting some dates locked in for sound events in London, Brighton and I think St Leonard's (Sussex). It feels like it's been a long wait to bring the gongshome, and I'm excited to see your faces there in November (as well as in my more local southwestfave, Bristol).

I hope if you've been waiting to join a sound event with me that this will be the month we meet, and if you've been before, from my heart to yours THANK YOU. This has been a tough year and I appreciate each and every one of you, especially if you've been subject to events being moved around.

The upcoming new moon eclipse will happen at 11.48 BST at 1° Scorpio. The house that contains Scorpio in your natal chart is the area of life where this energy will be most activated for you personally.

If you know a little more about your chart, you can dive deeper by taking a look at any planets or points that you have between 28° Libra and 4° Scorpio, as these will beconjunct theeclipse and therefore amplified by it. For example - if you happen to have your natal Venus at 2° Scorpio in your 4th house of home, you can expect this eclipse to magnify your emotional response to relationships, and to put a major accelerating spotlight on your love life in the context of home, structure and physical space. For example - just dating? Maybe you might be asked to move in.

Go deeper still and check if you have any planets or points at the same degree spread (3 degrees either side of 1°)of the other fixed signs (Taurus, Leo and Aquarius) - these will be opposing or squaring the eclipse, definitely more challenging energy to be aware of.

Remember - astrology is theart and a science of translating patterns and cycles. It's a tool for awareness, not stirring up fear and panic! See it as your personal weather report and an opportunity to be prepared!

I've been moving through some intense times of late, and dealing with a lot of stress, loss and grief. Amidst what was already an incredibly challenging time, my beautiful cat Coco, who many of you know from his gentle presence in my shop, from my instagram feed, and of course from his endless interruptions in my livestreams and online events - left for the rainbow bridge a month ago, and to say that he has left a void in my life is beyond understatement. We've been together since I was 26 years old (I'll be 42 in a couple of weeks) - and casting my mindthroughlife lived and experiences journeyed in that time it's impossible to imagine my worldwithout his gentle energy and unconditional love, his healing purr and his pure soul. Anyone who has a four-leggedbest friend - especiallyone they have shared such a huge chunk of their life with, will know what it means to experience this loss, particularly as a child-free woman navigating mid-life's messy transits. He - and his beloved sister Tizz who left us in 2020 -have been my constants, hanging out in the soundspace with me, present in my daily rituals, more a part of my life than anything or anyone else. If you have lost a pet too, then please receive all my love. Many people just don't recognise how devastating this journey can be.

Coco passed over on the brink of Equinox and the new moon in Libra, a parting message of divine timing. I had three back to back events scheduled for the the days that followed, and after having to cancel more events than I would have like this year due to ongoing ill health and some serious bad luck, the thought of cancelling them made me sick to my stomach. But sat with him at my altar on the afternoon he left, Coco's voice was there to tell me that I could go through with them. Those three equinox sessions (23rd-25th September) were among the most powerful I can ever remember giving, becoming monuments to love and filled with some incredible synchronicity and energy from everyone who joined.

Thank you so much to ALL of you who brought your energy, who tuned into mine, especially to those who brought their own images and talismans for the altars, who shared the visions and messages they received from my little spirit guides during the sound, and who gifted me such thoughtful cards and messages.

The biggest thanks goes to the amazing Jacquie O'Neill (@cornwallstudios) who received a powerful visual during the sound bath she experienced and the following week gifted me the illustration above. It's truly one of the most special gifts I have ever been given, and I shall always treasure it.

Wow I can't believe it's time to share November dates already... it's my birthday month! With both my solar and lunar returns falling in this next few weeks, I'm super excited for these sessions. With so much big astrology to work with these will be some of the most transformational events of the year.

It's my purpose to be here to guide and support you through the chaos and bliss of being a human on this planet, and I hope to see you this Scorpio season!

It's the turn of the witchy, intense, fierce grace of the8th sign to take centre stage and the 2022 iteration of Scorpio is seriously no-holds barred. For some of us, this Scorpio season will be a quantum leap and a revolutionary moment in our year - if not life -and amplifying tools will support us. For some, it's going to be an exercise in survival and reaching for pacifying, soothing rituals to calm the chaos. For all, it's opportunity to get down and dirty and deeply personal with the shadowlands beneath the surface of our existence. Whatever has been lurking in the darkness, shoved to the back of the cupboard, or carefully ignored onthe daily is about to surface.

As we move through the eclipse gateway (Oct 25th + Nov 8th), be mindful of some added spice thanks tothe unpredictable lightning bolts of Uranus sitting opposite the Sun (Nov 9th) - Uranus is all about shots fromthe dark, the unexpected, sudden earthquakes and handbrake turns. This potent mix is backgrounded by Mars in the first moments of his retrograde in Gemini (Oct 30 - Mar 25) - a lengthy transit which is all about reverse reflections on how we communicate our action.

Here are some tips and tools to help you make space for the incoming cycle:

I love rich, muskyoils for Scorpio season, alwayson a woody base to help encourage grounding and strength. Patchouli, sandalwood,oud, amber, leather and tobacco are great incenses if you are really tuning in. If it's all a bit overwhelming, then the cooling andsoothing expressions of water season can help - lavender, eucalyptus, mint and sage are a gentle tonic for the intensity. This is the basis for my Flow Reiki Mist, which I love to use for a calming lighter moment during dark months.
