My birthday is Thursday which has been bringing in a sort of heavy energy. I have so many things in the works that I haven't really been able to tap into that Creative channel. I have sun, venus and mercury in Gemini and I'm usually thriving at this time, overflowing with ideas.

I feel a bit stuck. I have things in the mix that are asking me to step up and I have been stalled to action...which in some cases will diminish the outcome of things. I'm desiring to bring myself to full power, and not quite sure what it will take to just turn on the switch.

Hey Monica! Happy birthday early!

I'm really going to suggest you let go. That's likely the new moon energy playing with you right now. We are very much in a time of allowing downloads to come in. See what happens if you give in to emotions and sensing. Maybe it will open things up...

Something shifted today.

I found my wallet (I misplaced it about a week ago) and I went for a walk to do some errands. On my walk I had a bunch of ideas come in of how to use substack.

I also pulled out organized a bunch of herbs for the market I'm doing this week.

But i have a meeting tomorrow...about a proposal (and I also have to do some work/ follow up for a similar one). The feeling that's coming up is that I actually missed an opportunity to step up and be seen (for something specific) and I'm working around that by re-pitching the tech I use (rather than me). I'm proud of myself for seeing an opportunity and continuing forward. But feeling disappointed in myself for letting fear stall my action. Maybe if I can tune in I can find a better solution.

Update. Meeting was better than anticipated, in many ways.

Also I got brave enough to follow up on another opportunity that I thought I had missed out on. I did the work prior to getting approval, we have a call tonight, which is a good sign, because everything is ready to go on my end.

The energy has started moving again, ideas are flowing and I'm buzzing in the best way.

Good luck with the meeting today. And glad you found your wallet. I like that symbolism. So maybe you didn’t miss out on anything. Maybe it’s waiting to be revealed like your wallet?

Morning lovely one, next gathering I will be there ....

I've just started today my MA Creative Writing for Wellbeing (something I have so wanted to do for a lifetime) , juggling with work (part-time) and business (anytime???? on one big transformation) linked to the first issue - my dream/vision I would like to share with you all soon. So , yes big downloads - lots to learn this morning that has come with relative ease but scheduling defo needed and I have an conscious thoughts that it all should merge ...(all inter-related)

Is the program called "Creative Writing for Wellbeing"? Or are you taking "Creative Writing" for your Wellbeing?

I took Professional Writing in university and then did a minor in Creative Writing... which was for my wellbeing, for more flow, and by 4th year I started taking coaching and energy work on top of my university course because I needed more Wellbeing. Lol.

I'm just so curious about your program and how the Wellbeing part fits in (whether in the course of just for yourself).

Julie! That’s big news! To start something you’ve wanted to do your whole life- big! You don’t have an experience of it yet, but you have BIG support in this community group.

As Annie says, when you’re ready to share we want to see it ❤️
