✍️🕯️🌙 Journaling the Dreamscape with Planetary Insight

Each morning, I sit with my journal—not just to record, but to listen.
To the whispers of dreams.
To the echoes of emotion.
To the subtle movements of the cosmos.

I’ve begun a new practice: integrating my daily reflections with my dream journal, guided by the transits of the planets.
This isn’t just astrology—it’s soul cartography. By tracking planetary aspects and their emotional resonance, I’m uncovering deeper meanings in my entries, patterns in my dreams, and messages from the unconscious that align with celestial rhythms.

✨ A square between the Moon and Neptune might reveal a foggy dream that holds a hidden truth.
✨ A Venus trine Pluto might illuminate a journal entry about love, transformation, and ancestral memory.

This project is part archive, part ceremony. It’s helping me honor my inner world as a living legacy—one that blends intuition, symbolism, and cosmic timing.

If you’re someone who journals, dreams, or dances with the stars, I’d love to hear how you weave these threads.

Today's Moon in Cancer is asking us to spend time with where we are most comfortable today - at home with family and loved ones.
We are probably feeling like cooking or baking - gardening, or just staying at home.

The Moon moves into the sign of Cancer on November 8 at 3:06 pm PDT and leaves on Monday November 10 at 5:34 pm.

Ta**us Full Moon: What We Treasure, What We Build

At 3:00 a.m., the moon appeared outside my window—wrapped in a shawl of clouds, luminous and veiled like a wise woman. In her quiet glow, I felt the Ta**us Full Moon stir something ancient within me: a longing for stability, a reverence for what I’ve built, and a deep reflection on what I truly treasure. This moon doesn’t shout—it whispers through the body, through the soil, through the spaces we call home. ...

Thursday Letters to Self 💌
Today, I honor what is ready to fall away...

Dear Self,
I have been reminded that things change, and hard as we wish and pray and ask that they remain the same I am gently guided to let go.
I fear letting go because it means that I have forgotten -- it means that my memory was unimportant --
and then the Universe whispers,

"Nothing true is ever lost.
What falls away makes room for what is sacred to rise.
Your memory is a seed, not a tombstone.
Let it rest, and it will bloom in ways you cannot yet imagine."

Today's Affirmation:

I honour what is ready to fall away.
I trust the wind to carry what I release.
My memories are seeds--
they drift, they root, they bloom anew.
I am not losing, I am becoming.

A Wonderful Wednesday to All!

Rain continues to be in the forecast and so I thought I'd share this photo I took the other day.

This tiny hummingbird doesn't seem to mind the rain - it 'just is'.
How lovely ☔
I don't mind the rain; it gives me an opportunity to reflect. 🍵

"Nature uses few words:
when the gales blow; it doesn't last long:
when it rains hard; it does not last long.
What is the cause?
Heaven and earth."
-Tao Te Ching

I don't have any 'ask' today -
just simply being here is enough for me.

We are all connected.
Even the forest speaks to us with a gentle reminder - our roots are entwined, our hearts beat the same song.

"Stillness & Quiet Beauty"

I am held in the hush between waves.
Stillness is my sanctuary.
Beauty arrives in silence, and I receive it
with open breath.

Friday Mantra

I walk with wonder, where earth meets sky—
each step a prayer, each breath a blessing.
The mountains rise within me,
steady, sacred, and serene.

I live and celebrate every day here on Vancouver Island 🦭
