Gemini Lunar Cycle: A Long Story

This is a story of this last lunar cycle, and how the Moon with her many faces danced with precision through my life, unfolding my Gemini New Moon prayer into fullness, harvest and completion (for now).  And the Lunar Journal, which helps me witness these patterns, is now 50% off! New Moon: Up early exactly […]

Lunar Affirmations: attune to the energy of each day

lunar affirmations

The idea arrived a little while ago to write some prayers ~ Lunar Affirmations ~ to go along with the lunar cycle, words that would help me attune to the possibilities or ‘medicine’ of each day. And recently I found the space to formulate something on paper. I found myself gravitating to very simple statements, single […]

Full Moon in Cancer: Dreaming Big

I’ve been immersed in my own Dreamtime these holidays, listening to the desires of my heart and soul, and those of my family as well.  As it says in the introduction of the Lunar Journal, “To ‘Priestess Your Life’ means to live with intention, being the change the world needs now…”  Setting goals for 2017 […]

Spirit Guides for 2017

The Lunar Journal contains an invitation to do a drum journey to ascertain a power animal and spirit guide for 2017. A drum journey is a simple yet potent way to tap into collective wisdom, a experience of symbol and archetype that speaks directly to our soul.  Focusing on the beat of a drum alters […]

Underworld Journey

In the very first cycle of the lunar year – the Aries New Moon cycle back in April – my heart took a big hit.  Something happened where I felt both deeply disappointed in myself, as well as judged and painfully unsupported. This Aries cycle, with all its forward movement and fire energy, plunged me […]

Virgo New Moon

🌙  Happy New Moon in Virgo + Solar Eclipse! 🌙 New Moon: Thursday 1st September at 7.03pm (AEST) How did you go, journeying though this last lunar cycle?  Any recurring themes?  Any parallels between your experiences on opposite sides of the circle? What was/is calling for your attention?   Eclipse Season Lots going on this month […]

LSJ: Taurus New Moon Cycle

Using the Lunar Solar Journal once again to reflect on my month… Seeing these two archetypes calling for more expression in my life: Priestess & Lover. I am carrying these two energies into the following cycle (and the rest of the year, no doubt!), watching them unfold, noticing where they feel easeful and where they feel uncomfortable […]

LSJ: Pisces New Moon cycle

Wanted to share another example from my experience using the Lunar Solar Journal in the hopes that it helps you adapt this resource to whatever you need it to be!  (The Lunar Solar Journal is a monthly and seasonal invitation to reflect on your life and plant new ‘soul seeds’!) I’m not quite finished digesting the Pisces […]

2016 Dreaming

Happy New Year! I got inspired today to make a little self-reflection tool, for this reflective time of year! It’s based on applying the gardening metaphor to our own lives and being able to look back over the whole year on one page – the visual part of me loves and needs this clarity! And […]

Video: Cycles & Spirals intro

Been wanting to create a video about the Lunar-Solar Journal for a while!  Here’s what I’m discovering about this self-reflective tool and what it can offer! #lunarsolarjournal 2015-08 L-S Journal intro from R F on Vimeo.

Seeming dualities

At the Dark Moon, two weeks ago, I rolled my inner-realm seed up into a bundle, and left it to stand on the kitchen windowsill for two weeks.  Each day following had a greater or lesser sense of waiting until the process of the passage of time could be revealed. In retrospect, ecoprinting seems an […]

May: Journal process

~ Aries New Moon cycle ~ Given the Cycles & Spirals: a Lunar-Solar Journal is so new, I feel like it may be useful to document examples of using the journal, in the hopes that doing so may help you ground this form of reflection in your own life, but also inspire other ways of […]

Womankind mag

Found Womankind magazine randomly in my local post office – love the change in the world I’m bearing witness to when I can pick up an ad-free publication geared at Australian women and advocating for mindfulness, self-reflection, positive change and creative art!  Check it out!

Solid Self

I’ve been reading a book called Passionate Marriage: Keeping Love and Intimacy Alive in Committed Relationships, by Dr David Schnarch.*  It’s filled with useful information, stories and a positive message about how relationships can deepen increasingly over time into deeper passion, honesty and joy.  I haven’t been feeling stagnant in my marriage, but rather the opposite: […]

Book Review: Helen Luke, Women, Earth & Spirit

  While on retreat last month, I found a book, Woman, Earth & Spirit: the Feminine in Symbol and Myth by Helen Luke, in the monastery library.  I love myths and fairy tales and the perfect synchronicities contained therein.  And I love an explanation of some of their more subtle meanings.  So I borrowed it and have […]
