Blessings of the Strawberry Moon
If this is your first newsletter from me, hi, I’m Charlotte, professional Astrologer and Moonologer. Welcome to a little slice of cosmic connection and a sprinkle of news and holistic tips from my world…
It’s been a while since I’ve been in touch, due to a week of COVID recently which really forced me to slow down. I'm feeling much better now, embracing a new lunar cycle and some sunshine - what a difference the sun makes!
Last week I found out that I had passed my year 2 exam in Advanced Hellenistic Astrology, hurray! This really made my day as year 2 was a challenge, mainly because of finding the time to study. However, we can always find time for the things we love doing right?! All the hard work paid off. This means I will be able to create some slightly different offerings within my practice so stay tuned for these...
I’ve also been busy working with the Moon Phase Studios crew on their 2025 journal. They recently unveiled a first look at their journal cover, and wow it’s a beauty!
The month of June also means I look forward to welcoming my Cosmically Conscious clients at the solstice. These clients signed up with me for a year to work with the astrology of their birth charts at each special turning point. It's a perfect 1:1 package for astro lovers who wish to develop a relationship with the planets and gain holistic insight into how they can work with the cosmos.
If a journey of self-discovery with the stars sounds like your cup of cosmic tea please get in touch and we can chat more. I have just one space available at Summer Solstice, a lovely time to begin!
If you aren’t quite ready to delve into the stars over a year, you can start off with a Birth Chart Explore session, the perfect way to enjoy an initial tour of your natal chart, or a ‘Chart Check In’ if we’ve worked together before.
So here goes friends, my latest cosmic musings and offers curated especially for you…
Blessings of the Strawberry Moon
We began this lunar cycle with a sparkling new moon in Gemini, helping us to remain flexible, curious, and playful. The signature of this new moon was a busy one, with a concentration of planets in Gemini, dancing with the new moon.
This was a time to welcome new perspectives and fresh ideas, but also to stay connected to the heart as well as the head. Whilst Gemini energy can be exciting, it can also leave us feeling a little scattered, so remembering to keep at least one foot on the ground is always a plan! If these new moon vibes still echo in your world now, take a breath, we are approaching a first quarter moon, (14th June) the perfect time to create some space and check in. A great opportunity to get your journal out and let the nib flow...
As we move through the cycle towards a full moon in Capricorn on 21st/ 22nd June (the first of two full moons in Capricorn this year), also known as the Strawberry Moon, we may feel like something is culminating or coming to fruition. Full moons represent the ‘pinnacle’ of the lunar cycle and are helpful for illuminating what needs our attention. Together with the solstice on the 20th June, this makes for some very powerful energy indeed.
A wonderful time to reflect on what you have learnt from the year so far and how you’d like the rest of the year to look...
Wax melts with summer vibes
If you were one of the lovely people who ordered my Spring Moon wax melts, thank you! They have been a big hit. The refreshing but calming blend of Lavender, Palma Rosa, Pink Grapefruit and Ylang Ylang essential oils are a gorgeous way to welcome in fresh energy.
To complement this blend, I’m also bringing a summer infused wax melt out very soon! This blend will lovingly combine Jasmine, Vetiver and Ylang Ylang essential oils, a sweet, intoxicating blend reminiscent of balmy summer evenings. Bergamot may sneak in there too - we shall see!
These wax melts will be available to buy individually and in a duo set with the spring moons - a lovely gift for someone special. The duo will also be on special offer for a limited time. If you’d like to be the first to know when these melts are available, please register your interest and I will give you priority notification.
Ps… my wax melts are only shipped in the UK currently, apologies to my readers across the pond!
And finally...
If you're ready for a reflective, refreshing read, I just love Beth Kempton’s ‘Kokoro.’ Her exploration of grief interwoven with the most beautiful description of her journey and memories of Japan was quite a transformational read for me. I particularly loved the way she also gives time for self-inquiry as you move through the book. A thought provoking, sensitive, poignant reading experience. Hit reply to this email and share your thoughts if you've read it, I'd love to know!
A little heads-up, the next newsletter I send out will be coming from Substack rather than Mailchimp. There is no action required from you, just know that the sender will look slightly different when it lands in your inbox.
One of the many exciting changes in the ether for my practice!
That's it from me friends.
Until next time, wishing you a beautiful lunar cycle ahead…
