Dear SARAH,

Last night I shared how the Pisces Eclipse and the 9:9:9 portal are pulling us

- into deep emotional charged waters of release and renewal.

What sacred sendoff and grief ritual did you practise

under the blood moon?

How are you feeling today knowing you are becoming

the most aligned, loving version of yourself?

The current energies of the Virgo–Pisces axis is inviting you:

to let what needs to die, die.

To sit in the discomfort of Virgo’s shadow so that you can

break the cycle of self-abandonment, over-giving, perfectionism,

and the need to control what cannot be controlled.

Pisces’ invitation is to forgive yourself for buying into

the misunderstanding that you are not enough.
because the truth is you cannot not be enough.

It is time to return to the heart with compassion, and self-love.

And ask your body to show you:

What would LOVE do here?

Without truly BEING an expression of self-love,

the heart stays closed.

If you cannot love yourself just as you are,

you cannot give or receive love.

Why This Matters Now

So many of my clients say:

“I can’t remember the last time I felt truly happy.”

It's not your fault if you feel that way too.

You’ve been protecting your heart for decades

— betrayals, breakups, disappointments, deaths.

At first, those heart walls felt like they were keeping you safe.

Your nervous system was doing its best to keep you from being hurt like that again.

But the truth is, the very thing you most want-

to be seen, heard and held

aka safety, connection and belonging

- you have unconsciously kept you

lone wolfing, longing, suffering.

Those impenetrable heart walls have kept you at arms length away

from intimacy,(IN to ME SEE)

joy, and connection.

Not only with others but with your own sweet body.

It takes a lot of energy to keep those barriers up,

and over the year's your body makes you right.

The cycle of blame, shame, regret and guilt continues.

I know because I have been through many iterations of

judging the joy right out of my life over the years

- shoulding and berating myself

into a downward spiral of self inflicted misery and suffering.

And life gave me as it has most likely given you

the visible proof every time you keep buying the lie that:

  • “It's all downhill from here now I am 50.”
  • “My body is failing me."
  • I am invisible, irrelevant and exhausted.”
  • “Where did I go? Who am I now? —

that the kids are gone, my body has changed, menopause has taken my spark.”

  • “It’s too late to start over.”

It's not your fault, it's the bad programming of this reality

and yes.....

it's true - pain is part of being human

but suffering is optional.

What I have learnt is to embrace the moments of joy

and if joy or happy feels like a stretch to ask myself, as I ask my clients

"Can you allow yourself to feel relief for a moment more than you did before?

'Can you allow yourself to feel grief too?"

because everything we love we will "lose" including our own bodies -

and as heavy as that sounds in a death phobic society, grief is an amplifier of how much we love.

If your heart closes around grief or love, you cannot be present to what is.

You live in yesterday’s wounds and tomorrow’s fears, instead of the only place

joy and love and grief can flow: in this NOW moment.

It is all we have.

“Grief and love are sisters, woven together from the beginning.

To love is to invite grief, and to grieve is to touch the depths of love.”

The Heart's truth.

i am the heart. In Western science, we now know that I, the heart brain

sends more signals to the brain

than the brain sends to me.

I produce hormones that affect your mood and create an electromagnetic field

strong enough to influence those around you

— I beat in synch with the Earth’s heartbeat -

you call this the Schumann resonance).

In Chinese medicine, I house your Shen

— your Spirit, your awareness, your ability to connect with life itself.

When I weaken, joy dries up and depression takes hold.

When I am strong, harmony circulates through your whole being.

Your best protection does not come from a closed heart.
It comes from an open heart.
Not a fortress — a bridge.

🧩
When I Am Out of Balance

  • You get palpitations, chest tightness → grief and fear of heartbreak.
  • You suffer with Insomnia, racing thoughts → my Spirit cannot anchor.
  • Your hands are ice cold, you have poor circulation → I’ve lost my warmth.
  • You feel numb and dull → armour too thick, walls too high.
  • You will fall into a deep depression → my fire can’t generate joy.

The Simple (not easy) Solution

Stop resisting.
Stop forcing.
Stop trying to control the natural flow of life force energy.

Soften. Breathe.
Let life meet you.
Open me. Let me circulate love again.

This Week’s Practice

  • Somatic Practise: Place both hands on your chest. Inhale: “I am safe to receive.

Exhale: “I give generously.”

  • Journal inquiry: Where am I armouring my heart to avoid pain?

What joy might be waiting outside those walls?

  • Mantra: Brave heart. Loving heart. Open heart.

I no longer resist what is. I let life move through me. I trust where it carries me.

✨
