Belonging in the Season of the Otherworld

Gorgeous Soul,

We’ve stepped across a threshold, love.
We’re officially in the season of the Otherworld. 🍂

The winds of autumn are carrying whispers from the unseen realm, and this month’s reading comes as a balm for the nervous system with one clear, steady message:

You belong.

No matter what chaos is blowing in from the outer world right now, the message for October is simple and profound—we can create stone circles of stability within ourselves.

Anchors in times of change.

Places where we remember: we are heard, we are held, we are not alone.

Why Autumn Feels Different

The ancient Celts knew this. They felt autumn as the richest time of year to connect with the unseen. The veil thins, the harvest comes in, and the visible world above ground begins to retreat back into the earth. That’s when the Otherworld rises closer—full of healing, creativity, and possibility.

And haven’t you felt it? That subtle shift? The way dreams turn wilder, intuitions grow sharper, and sometimes your ancestors seem to slip into the room beside you?

Autumn holds both withering and abundance. It asks us to gather in what has ripened and to let go of what no longer serves. It carries loss and it carries possibility.

It is an initiation into your own mythical unfolding.

Creating Your Stone Circle

When I think of this season, I think of stone circles—ritual places built at thresholds, aligned with the solstices, equinoxes, and stars. They were meant to hold people steady through great change.

This month’s invitation is to create your own “stone circle.”
✨ Maybe it’s a quiet corner in your home that you return to each week.
✨ Maybe it’s time set aside for meditation, journaling, or walking in nature.
✨ Maybe it’s a candle lit every evening, marking your center.

Whatever it looks like for you, let it be your anchor. A place where you can step back into your inner world, reconnect with your own center, and remember your belonging.

Because here’s the truth: if you are not at the center of your own world, your world has no center. Autumn is reminding you now—it’s safe to take that place. It’s necessary.

The Thinning of the Veil

October always carries huge gifts, messages and visions for me.

Ancestors show up in my dreams, insights arrive unannounced, new pathways open.

And I want you to be open to that too.

Yes, the outer world may feel chaotic this month.

But inside, through your anchor points, you can connect to something steady and luminous. Think of it as touching into rainbows underground while the storm rages above.

This is the balance of autumn—the seen world fading, the unseen rising.

And in that balance, your soul expands.

The Aries Super Full Moon – October 7

This Full Moon is like an exhale after the intensity of the eclipses. It’s asking: What are you ready to let go of? What has served its time?

Because it’s the first Full Moon since Equinox, it also brings to fruition intentions seeded back in March. Something you began earlier this year may now come to harvest—or return for another layer of learning.

And, by just a day, this moon is the Harvest Moon. It invites you to gather what this year has given you—not only food or things, but the wisdom, the lessons, the growth.

Even as baskets fill, the withering begins. And that’s the deeper teaching: endings are not failures, they are the natural turn toward rest.

Walking with the Ancestors

As we move toward Samhain, ancestry is alive in the air. The same moonlight that shines on your face once touched those who walked before you.

Their presence is woven into this season, reminding us that we belong to something larger, older, and enduring.

So this October, build your stone circle. Touch into your center. Let yourself belong—to yourself, to your ancestors, to this living, breathing world.

Because you are not walking this season alone.
You are heard.
You are held.
✨ You belong.

So with all that being shared and said. Take a breath, see a glorious stone circle that welcomes you and then pick the card or cards that whisper.

Did you remember to pick?

Let’s go see shall we?

HOWL WITH FIERCENESS

Wolves, like women, have been regulated to the dangerous side of wildlife.

Both species are greatly misunderstood and often accused of menace.

Yet women, like wolves, possess a propensity for courage in the face of danger, strength in the quest for well-being, and loyalty to mate and tribe.

When we are no longer willing to shame ourselves for our natural fierceness, or condemn ourselves (or others) for the need to love and hunt and roam free, Wild Woman rises.

What do you need to be fierce about?

Are you willing to let it out?

If you are choking down your words to “fit in” and call it a life, you are being invited to tap into your wolf energy.

GATHER YOUR TRIBE

They say your vibe attracts your tribe, and nothing brings them to you more swiftly than when you’re willing to be clear about who you are and what you want and why you want it.

No more people pleasing to make others happy.

If you have to contort and compromise, they’re not your people.

When we allow and attract versus contort and demand, we gather the lost pieces of ourselves together and Wild Woman rises.

Where is the box feeling a tad tight?

Where are you not using your authentic, delicious soul voice?

CHAMPION PEACE

Your mind is a temple where peace yearns to be worshipped.

It’s easy to respond to war with war, especially within ourselves.

One judgemental thought leads to another and soon your mind is a battle zone.

But peace and war cannot rule simultaneously.  

You get to choose who will rule the mind’s temple.

Right now you’re being invited to become an advocate of peace.

When we choose love over fear and peace over war, Wild Woman rises.

Do you fill your mind with the news, hate the divisiveness and allow it to take hold?

Where do you let yourself in your mind and body walk in love and peace?

Oh my golly goodness!  You seriously can’t make this shit up!  What perfect guides for this time!!!  So my gorgeous one, I wish for you a week where you invite in the stone circle, create your anchor points and allow yourself to breathe in your ancestors, whether of blood or choice – and start to listen to their guidance.

Sending you massive hugs and squeezes!

    My Ancestors are guiding & encouraging me always – reminding me that I am exactly where they need me to be. And the challenges I face will pass just as theirs did. They are necessary. There is a plan for my life & this time of year is a reward to me as the veil thins – and I am even closer to hearing their whispers of inspiration. 🙂

An autumn craft that required no $ to make, just some foraged pine needles, a stick, dried flowers from an old bouquet from my lover, tinkling bells I picked from the threshold of our front door, an old ribbon I cut and some copper wire from my studio. #autumn #cozy #autumncraft #whimsical #whimsy

What if your life isn’t falling apart? What if yo What if your life isn’t falling apart?

What if you’re simply mid-frigging-leap?

The Full Moon Eclipse is arriving August 27–28, and the Fool is standing at the cliff’s edge with no map, no guarantees and no tidy five-year plan—just curiosity, courage and a wee dog saying, Oi, let’s go!

This eclipse may feel chaotic, ungrounding and wildly uncertain. But somewhere beneath the chaos, joy and possibility are fizzing.

You don’t need to know exactly where you’ll land.

You just need to know the old ground can’t carry the person you’re becoming.

You are not falling, Gorgeous Soul. You are leaping.

Eclipse Season is coming—and it’s ready to rummage Eclipse Season is coming—and it’s ready to rummage through the cosmic cupboards and expose what we’ve shoved behind the good china. 🌑🦁✨

The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Leo asks:

Where have you made yourself smaller, quieter or more beige just to belong?

No more hiding the wild laugh, strange ideas or glorious sparkle.

The new post explores what this Eclipse may uncover—and includes The Glorious Reveal, a playful ritual with a mirror, a wonky crown and some magnificently questionable dancing.

You do not need to perform to belong.

Your light was never the frigging problem.

They sold you Barbie and called it feminine. Pink They sold you Barbie and called it feminine.

Pink, pretty, agreeable, easy to look at and easy to manage. Somewhere we started believing that was feminine energy.

That’s femininity with the wild bred out of it.

The real thing looks more like nature than a doll. 

Seasons. Storms. Tides that don’t ask permission. Soft and completely untamable at once. I spent years being the polished version. The wild one was always underneath.

So true! If our mothers, grandmothers and great So true! 

If our mothers, grandmothers and great grandmothers hadn’t stepped up and got fierce. 

We would be fucked!

Well behaved women rarely make history. ✌🏼LTU

🌾 Oi, hey you—how is it going? 🌾 And if you know 🌾 Oi, hey you—how is it going? 🌾

And if you know me, you’ll know that “Oi” features rather heavily in my vocabulary. 😂

Lughnasadh arrives on August 1st, bringing the first harvest—and a gentle but firm nudge to stop obsessing over everything you haven’t done.

Because what about the confidence you’ve grown?
The boundary you finally held?
The truth you spoke?
The life that is becoming more gloriously yours?

Those are harvests too, delicious lovely.

Perhaps you haven’t failed to grow. Perhaps you’ve simply been measuring the wrong frigging things.

I’ve gathered a whole basket of Lughnasadh magic for you: earthy rituals, rich journal prompts and a delicious First Harvest Tarot Spread.

No field of wheat, elaborate altar or flawless pronunciation required. Make yourself a cuppa and come recognise what’s already growing. 🌾🕯️🍞
