Are you solstice ready?🌞
Welcome to Cosmically Conscious, a little slice of holistic inspiration from me to you.
As we approach the solstice (21st June) I’ve been enjoying balmy summer evenings in my garden and even managed to get the telescope out to catch a proper glimpse of the Sagittarius full moon – what a stunner! I hope you enjoyed her beauty too.
The big news with me is I recently became a Certified Astrologer after an in-depth training in Hellenistic Astrology over two years.  It’s been an intense journey (trying to study and work has been a challenge) but I’ve loved it. This training has given me such brilliant insight and techniques for mastering this ancient craft. I’ve got another exam for my advanced techniques and then I will be finished - for now!Â
This month has also seen me busily preparing for my Solstice Moon Retreat on 24th June. I've been enjoying creating celestial goodie bags for my attendees, and generally preparing a beautiful session for them! Excitingly, I've also just started work with my Cosmically Conscious clients for their summer solstice sessions. With all spaces for this intake now full, I’ve opened a wait list to join at the autumn equinox, so get in touch if you’d like to be first in line. In the meantime I will be taking bookings for Birth Chart Explore Sessions and Moonology 1:1s from mid July if you'd like to dive into your stars over the summer.
So, with eclipse season behind us, how are you doing dear reader? The month sees us not only embrace the solstice but also a New Moon in Gemini, so change is in the air! But before the excitement of all this we are working with the waning moon phases. For some top tips to help you tune into the cycle as we move through it, read on….
Â
A look at this month’s waning moon…
After the delightful fullness of the strawberry moon (so beautiful!) in Sagittarius earlier this month, we are now working with the waning phases of the moon in the lunar cycle. In Moonology, this symbolises a time where we can enjoy more introspection, contemplation, and a peaceful energy.
The New Moon in Gemini and the solstice later this month can provide the energy for change and fresh insight, but first we need to figure out the shift or change we might need. In the waning phases – we have the perfect opportunity. As the moon catches less and less light, she reminds us that sometimes we need to take the pressure off to find the answers we are looking for, and that we usually need to go inwards to do this.
If you have time in the lead up to the new moon (18th June), you could try some regular meditation, (even just 10 mins a day), spend some time in nature, or if you enjoy working with oracle cards, start tuning in. Find ways to listen to your intuition. You might be surprised at the insights you receive!

The summer solstice is an incredibly special turning point of the year which gives us an opportunity to reflect, as well as look forward with intention.
To celebrate the solstice, I am holding an in-person mini retreat in Bristol. This restorative and uplifting half day retreat aims to create a mind, body, and soul shift to mark this magical turning point in the year.Â

During your 4 hours, you will be guided by me, to enjoy working with the current energy to relax, reflect, and set intentions, aligned with both the season and the lunar cycle.

And last but not least...with the solstice approaching and the pagan festival of Litha with it, I can highly recommend the book 'The Wheel' by Jennifer Lane if you are interested in exploring the Pagan Wheel of the Year.
That's it from me friends! Until next time, wishing you a beautiful June full of solstice magic.
Keep your feet on the ground and eyes on the cosmos!
