Guidance for the week ahead

The Meandering Path - Flow

Wishing you a good morning on the start of a new week.

The Meandering Pathway reminds us life is not a straight road, but a twisting and winding path in which the way forward is not always clear. This card asks that you surrender to the flow, letting life take you where need to go. This can be a challenge during what feels like the never-ending winter season (and month of January!), but recognise that you, and Nature, are ever-changing.

On Tuesday, we have the New Moon in Aquarius. A time to turn inwards and carve out some alone-time to consider the possibilities of Spring. What is stirring within, what wants to begin to grow? Aquarius is the freedom-seeking humanitarian, take this time to receive clarity and inspiration on your dreams and goals. Allow excitement for what's to come, without needing to see the path ahead.

On Saturday, we celebrate Imbolc, the mid-point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. Here, we stir from Winter's hibernation with hope for Spring. Make time to look out for Nature's stirrings, buds coming through the soil and lighter mornings.

You may feel you want to be done with Winter now, and surge forward into Spring. However, the Meandering Path suggests we stop to enjoy the journey for now (even if it doesn't feel that all enjoyable). Trust that you will blossom forth when the time is right.

In this liminal space between seasons, it can feel conflicting to consider creation whilst practicing patience. Imbolc means "in the belly", signifying the start of lambing season, and implying we are gathering our seeds (our goals, intentions and dreams for the year) - rather than planting them just yet.

There is no pressure to emerge from hibernation just yet. Recognise you when you need to rest (or your mind and body will force you to). Aquarius season calls for you to fill your own cup in ways that suit you best. Consider unconventional ways of living that enable you to be free to be you. When you are living authentically, you are best aligned to serve your family, your community and society as a whole.

Have a wonderful week,

Kat xoxo
