Cutting the ties that bind.

Tapestry threadsDo you ever think of your life as a gorgeous tapestry where are all the various threads of your different relationships are woven together to create an amazing picture that you revel in?  I do.

Another way I look at it is one of those deep piled, soft, richly coloured, warm, plush blankets.  Each person in my life has a colour distinctive to them and they wend and wind throughout my blanket.  Sometimes those threads overlap others and are dominant in an area, in other areas of the blanket they aren’t as present, and instead there is a different colour.  However, it is the combination of all those relationship threads that make such a sumptuous blanket that you know at any time you can wrap yourself up in it and just revel and absorb the energy and feel totally safe, loved and appreciated.

My question for you is; what if one of those threads continually keeps looping up and creating havoc with your blanket?  How many times do you fix it, mend it before you get to the point of removing it all together.  Sure a temporary space is created in the blanket, however, it allows room for another colour to come in and create something even more gorgeous.

In other words, if you think of all the relationships you participate in, whether, family, kids, friends, partners, ex-partners, work, employees, bosses, co-workers; doesn’t matter, they are all part of the weave.  If one of those relationships starts becoming toxic, dramatic and draining, it is time to clip that thread in its tracks and remove it.  What does that look like?  What will your blanket look like?  Sure it changes the colours of your blanket, but probably for the best.

I’m not saying do that the first time round, everyone has bad days and makes bad choices, but if the behaviour is continually repeated and you don’t feel good about it, hmmmm, what do you think?  I would personally give a time line with parameters as to what you need and expect (yes that word expect), and if it doesn’t change and stays the same old, same old drama and draining behaviour.

Cut the thread!  Remove that sucker now!

Think of it this way, you have a friend who for days at a time is quite present, “pleasant and fun” to be around, and you enjoy them.  However, repeatedly they shift, don’t respect your boundaries, rant at you, lie to you, expect you to pay for them continually and often create a huge drama in your life, totally unconscious as to what is happening for you and assuming that you will mend, tend and fix them.

Wow!.

Trust me the first time it will throw you off your tracks and send you sideways as you are gob-smacked that this person would do these things to you, yet alone say some of what comes out of their mouth.  After about the 3rd  time hopefully you have realised it is not about you, it is their stuff.  You may have brought it up repeatedly to the point of ad-nauseum, heard and believe the “oops, I’m sorry.  Oops, it won’t happen again.”  Followed by yet another excuse or justification, yet the bottom line is it doesn’t change.

As much as you want to hold onto the brief memories of when they are lovely, it seriously isn’t worth it.   Some people thrive on drama, broken promises, sarcastic behaviour that is on the edge of cruel.  If that winds your crank, well, that’s up to you.  Do you realistically want that playing out in your life over and over again?

I think it is time to smile kindly and say “Thank you so much for the learn, but I chose not to put my energy here.”  Yeah, it is exceptionally tough to do, but how about you start valuing you, your time, your energy and your vision – it’s vital for your wellbeing.

So set the boundaries, cut the thread and then watch the gorgeous colour that starts to fill that space in your blanket.

Seriously? Seriously, the Trump administration i Seriously? 

Seriously, the Trump administration is attacking Sesame Street?

 Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., who organized the hearing — which she called “Anti-American Airwaves” — opened her remarks by deriding PBS and NPR as “radical left-wing echo chambers” that published skewed news reports and indoctrinated children with LGBTQ+ programming.

Wow. One Muppet attacking real muppets. Sad.

Happy Beltane my loves. Beltane is one of the fo Happy Beltane my loves. 

Beltane is one of the four great fire festivals and was traditionally a celebration of life, the first signs of summer, the fertility of the land and people, and the promise of the light and growth to come.

Beltane is translated as bright fire, and communities would build fires to symbolise the growing power of the sun and to purify, cleanse and renew after the dark months of winter.

This is a time of fertility and growth,love and joy, sexuality and sensuality, the coming together of the masculine and feminine creative energies in all of us and, most of all, abundance and happiness.

Flowers are everywhere, the earth is lush and green, and there
is a sense that Nature is virile, fertile and celebrating being alive.

We too will feel this same alive, fertile energy within us, calling us to allow ourselves and our dreams to grow into all that they can become.

BELTANE / BEALTAINE / MAY DAY May 1st 2025 🌸 B BELTANE / BEALTAINE / MAY DAY
May 1st 2025 🌸

Beltane is the Celtic festival of fire and fertility, celebrated this year on May 1st. It marks the height of spring and the threshold of summer—a time when the Earth is fully alive, vibrant, and brimming with passion. The days grow longer, the sun stronger, and the world hums with the fierce joy of growth and creation.

Beltane honours the union of Earth and Sky, the sacred marriage that brings forth abundance and life. The goddess and god dance together through the fields and forests, weaving blossoms into the land and awakening the fires within all living things. Bonfires blaze in their honour, and ribbons fly from the maypole as a prayer for blessing, vitality, and fertile dreams.

The fires are lit. The Earth is ablaze with life. 🥰🌸

It’s the last Monday of April! How are you fee It’s the last Monday of April! 

How are you feeling?  There has been a lot energetically and globally to hold. 

We are in Taurus season, the bull, which invites a slow down and a dropping into that feeling of worthiness. 

Can you do that?  Slow down and really embrace yourself where you are right now?

On Thursday we celebrate Beltane!

A glorious fire festival that dances in you, around you and with you to help you remember the pleasures of life. 

There’s a glorious Beltane Booklet for you, 5 questions to ask yourself at Beltane.  All sorts or magick, as the veil is thin and the Fae want to play and chat.

There’s a moment—a quiet, powerful shift—whe There’s a moment—a quiet, powerful shift—when a woman stops waiting for validation and starts living for herself. It’s not loud. It’s not dramatic. But it’s life-changing. 

She no longer explains her choices, dims her light, or tiptoes around expectations. She walks in her truth, fully and unapologetically. That moment? 

It’s freedom. It’s the deep knowing that she is enough, her dreams are valid, and her life is hers to shape. 

No more asking for permission. No more shrinking to fit spaces never meant for her. Just existing in her power, her purpose, and her joy. And when you see a woman living like that—really living—it’s the most beautiful thing in the world. Sis, if you’re not there yet, know this: it’s coming. And when it does, you’ll never look back. ✨🔥
