the messy bits are the best opportunities to choose creativehood over victimhood

How has September been unfolding for you? Mine has been pretty magical so far… There have been a lot of very cool syncronicities, a lot of leaning in to scary exciting things… And a throat chakra theme around speaking and expressing my truth.

The Moon of Gratitude

On the 10th of September (the 11th here in Lisbon and the UK), we have a new moon in Virgo, and in the journey of the 13 moons, this is the moon of gratitude. Virgo brings the sweet medicine of letting go of the belief that we need fixing (which is also one of the main premises of Embodied Alchemy), and this moon invites us to hold ourselves whole and to celebrate our “perfectly imperfect” completions. It is an invitation to witness the harvest of your life, no matter how messy it may seem right now with the alchemy of gratitude.

What Has Been Bringing Me JOY

I have upgraded my team this year welcoming in communications and administrative support (William Harvey!), which last month allowed me to finish my JOY Dream Journal and Goddxx Path Oracle cards (amazing a dream come true!)

What Have You Been Journeying?

Having navigated dyscalculia a long time, the part of my business that involves dates and times can get overwhelming, so it has been amazing to delegate these tasks… But (sense of humour required at all times!), perhaps because there is a charge there for me and energy flows where our focus goes, getting the dates wrong has persisted!

But my journey has been to be able to laugh… to use the tools I teach in Embodied Alchemy, and rather than define it as bad, to use my intuition to make lemonade and alchemise it into fuel for the creative fire.

The Alchemy

Often, when we encounter the mess of our perfectly imperfect humanness, our instinct is to go into victimhood and blame.

The core teaching of Embodied Alchemy is the process of unlearning this victimhood, by accessing our unique Goddxx Path Blueprint. Then, repeating the simple but profound process in Journal to JOY every single day forevermore, we strengthen our intuition so that we are able to take the aligned actions to create our lives rather than react to the life happening to us.

And so those dates evolved into a new start date for Embodied Alchemy and an evolution of the course content to complement the seven pillars of the work:

• ✨ Potential: Standing in our sovereign gifts, grounded nervous system and unique Goddxx-like potential.
• ✨ Alchemy: Reclaiming challenge as fuel for the fire of our creativity, alchemising illusion into joy and creating our unique Goddxx Path.
• ✨ Truth: Unlearning inherited conditioning and narratives to create from our authentic personal authority: our Soul Truth.
• ✨ Homeostasis: Restoring radiance through somatic work, compassion and health.
• ✨ Fire: Accessing our creative expression and the courage to speak and express your Soul Truth that in turn lights the path for those behind us.
• ✨ Orientation: Using bodywork and intuition to align our perception within and without.
• ✨ Resonance: The glow and flow that comes from honouring, valuing and following our inner wisdom and living our Goddxx Path Blueprint.

These are the updated dates for Embodied Alchemy:

• Free Talks: 1st, 3rd, and 11th of September
•  9-Week Challenge Launch: 17th September
• 9-Month Course Launch: 17th September

New Moon Journal to JOY Reflections

With all of these themes in mind, on the 10th or 11th depending on your location, I invite you to grab your Journal to JOY and use your intuition to sit with these reflections:

✨ Where have I been identifying with the role of the victim lately, and what would it look like to step into creativehood instead?

✨ How can I alchemise a recent mess or challenge into a gift or a creative opportunity?

✨ Where can I release the need for perfection so that I can celebrate my own “messy harvest”?

Often the messy bits are the best opportunities to choose creativehood over victimhood…
