Keeper of devotion
roses rise as constellations, glowing against the night sky. throughout time, the rose has been keeper of devotion— sacred to isis, venus, mary, innana. its petals spiral inward, tracing the map of the soul. its scent whispers of mystery, love, surrender. throughout time, the rose has carried the mysteries of initiation. now, in this turning of september, we see the rose rise in the sky once more. the wheel turns. the air shifts. eclipse season opens a doorway + together, we are walking through.
full moon lunar eclipse in pisces
on the seventh of this month, the moon blooms full, then shadows itself in pisces— sign of dreams, intuition + dissolution. lunar eclipses carry the wisdom of completion. they move through body + spirit in tides of release, dissolving illusion, softening grief, and opening the way for ancestral healing. eclipses reveal what has been hidden, bringing truths into view + purging what no longer serves the soul.
new moon solar eclipse in virgo
two weeks later, on the twenty-first, the sun + moon align in virgo— sign of the healer, the priestess, the keeper of sacred practice. solar eclipses mark beginnings born from disruption. they draw a line in the sand, closing one chapter + opening another. this eclipse recalibrates the rhythms of body + spirit, bringing clarity, refinement, and devotion to the daily rituals that sustain us. solar eclipses begin within— a whisper of readiness, an invitation to trust your intuition + step forward even when the full path has not yet been revealed.
between these eclipses, we traverse a corridor of transformation. endings + beginnings braided together. shadow + light weaving us into new form. the rose appears, the night sky becomes her altar, her petals a map for the timelines we are walking.
SKY ROSE
sky rose blooms
under the cover of night
darkness holds the depths
every layer
a rich canvas
ready to receive
ever-unfolding stories
of how i came to be.
looking up
at the stars—keepers of my destiny
they shimmer + shine
as i reach toward truth.
tenderly feeling the softness,
delicate petals of becoming.
breath moves this feeling,
anchoring it into my body
a gift i return to again + again:
the opening of presence
within myself
the witnessing of power
in how simple it can be—
to surrender.
to trust.
to flow with creativity.
a golden honey of love
rolls down from the heavens,
entering the essence of who i am:
a holy offering
a skyward prayer
the rose made eternal
in the hearts of all goddesses
as we rise + witness one another, collectively.
the rose is our guide
the rose holds the medicine of this season, stirring memory in the body. it embodies softness + strength, beauty + thorn. its spiral structure mirrors the soul’s— always circling inward, always opening further. the rose is our guide. she teaches that devotion unfolds in divine timing. her petals open in their own rhythm, guided by sun, water, and unseen currents. her presence awakens the senses, inviting breath to slow, heart to soften + mind to listen. in therapy, we call this anchoring— a way of returning to the present moment through what we see, touch + feel. the rose becomes a point for that return: color, texture, fragrance, form. when we engage with her, the nervous system shifts. sight of her layers creates focus. touch of her petals offers grounding. scent draws us deeper into breath. this is how devotion becomes medicine: through the body’s direct experience of beauty.
rose meditation
hold a rose— or close your eyes + imagine one before you. notice its layers, petal upon petal, soft yet resilient. notice its weight, its shape, its temperature. breathe with it, each inhale carrying you inward, each exhale softening your edges. let your attention rest at the center of the bloom, the place where opening + mystery meet. ask quietly: what is ready to open in me now? listen. allow the answers to arrive. inhale again slowly, letting the breath mirror the spiral of the petals. with your exhale, gently feel your body rest into the present. allow the rose to anchor you here.
The Sacred TEN
this is the essence of what we begin together this season: devotion as therapy, beauty as medicine, presence as the path of becoming. ten devotions. ten goddesses. ten transmissions of divine feminine power. a body of work born from my deepest integration: therapy as sacred space, infused with ritual; reiki as light woven through the body; art as a vessel of self-expression; somatic practices that guide you into authenticity; presence that trusts the rhythm of your own divine time. the sacred ten is a circle of initiation, rooted in devotion + designed to carry you inward— to the places where your becoming takes form. we begin with persephone— goddess of descent + return, guide of thresholds, keeper of renewal. her devotion opens the circle, carrying us into the underworld + back again, a mirror for the season we are stepping into.
my books are open to reserve your place in the studio schedule. sessions begin on the autumnal equinox, as the season turns inward. the rose unfurls. the sacred ten is ready. be open to receive.
