Dear Clients

​

Throughout history, the Sun has been revered as a source of warmth, light, life and divine power. Ancient cultures built entire mythologies around it, from Egypt's Ra to Greece's Helios, understanding even then, that this glowing celestial 'being' sustained both nature and spirit.

​

Even in the coldest of seasons, the light of the winter's sun has a way of reaching us. Whether one is  basking in the summer sunshine or seeking brightness through the grey of winter, there is still a golden thread...soft, alive and dependable, connecting us all to something higher.

​

The month of August, astrologically ruled by Leo and governed by the Sun, continues this solar celebration. It is a time that carries with it themes of vitality, courage, visibility and authenticity. There is something inherently regal in Leo's energy. Not in status, but in the way it teaches us to walk with heart-led purpose, to radiate our inner light, and to take up space in a world that often demands we shrink.

​

The Tarot card often associated with Leo is Strength, which shows a woman gently taming a lion, not through force, but through calm, inner power, love and patience. It is a reminder that true strength is often soft, rooted in compassion and inner alignment.

This is the kind of power August invites us to access, a boldness that does not roar, but shimmers.
There is a quiet invitation this month to express yourself more boldly, openly and joyfully. For some that may be dabbling in art, taking pen to paper, finding your voice, dancing in the kitchen or simply reclaiming space in your own life.
It doesn't have to be grand, it just has to be true.

​

If it has been a while since you have connected with your inner fire, you might like to try this simple ritual.
Find a moment of quiet under the glow of the sun or at a window bathed in natural light.
Place your hand on your heart and breathe deeply.
Whisper aloud or within:
'I honour the light within me. I honour the path I walk.
I shine with love, courage and truth.'
If the skies are overcast, let your imagination become the sun.
Visualise golden light pouring down through your crown chakra and illuminating yourself and the space around you
with warmth and calm energy...and let this fill you with renewed purpose.

​

A quote by the poet Walt Whitman reads thus: "Keep your face always toward the sunshine--and shadows will fall behind you."

​

There is something quietly profound to be understood in that sentence. It serves as a reminder that when we choose to orient ourselves toward the light, no matter how small or subtle it may seem, we give ourselves permission to grow and to heal. The shadows will not disappear, but they will no longer lead.

​

So, this August, may you remember that your presence is a gift. That your voice matters. 
That joy, too, is a form of strength. And that self-love is not an indulgence...it is the vital flame of your being which has the ability to warm everyone it touches.
