You Are The Seer and Surrendering...
When it's time to stop "learning" and start doing, being and embodying.
Dear Seeker of Petals and Reveries! 💛
(This is a long letter! I believe however, that there should be a play button for you to listen to an audio version of this. It isn’t my voice but it may make it easier for you if you are pressed for time. If you can’t find this option, I will endeavour to work it out for next time! Thank you for being here. 🌹)
Hello dear friends! I can’t believe it is nearly a month since I have written a letter. Time is passing in one big blur at the moment. In these last 3-4 weeks so much has happened, and yet, not a lot!
In regard to the tarot deck, I am currently waiting for these to be finalised and shipped. I feel they should arrive in the next week or so. The guidebook has been an interesting experience to say the least, but I have just placed the orders for those, so they should be about 3 weeks away from delivery. I am expecting the ebook formatting to be finished any time now, so that will be exciting as well. One thing that this printing and publishing process has taught me is that sometimes, you just have to surrender. Surrender and trust that all will flow as it is meant to flow. The key word here however, is surrender!
I’m not sure about you, but surrendering has been my struggle for the longest time now. Especially the last few years. One day, about 3 years ago now, I walked into my acupuncturist’s office in a flustered flurry. At the end of my session, he said the first thought that came into his mind when I walked in was, “Just surrender already!” Present day, it is still a lesson I am learning. I must be a slow learner. haha!
When you have been pushed into excess masculine energy or into doing mode, it is hard to soften back into your feminine energy. I know this! At heart I am very feminine, and when I make conscious effort to be in that energy, doing things that help me reconnect and remember that part of myself, I feel so much better for taking that time. Last year, all of my feminine practices went out the door. I became solely focused on my tarot deck and book. There was nothing else! That was the masculine energy in me taking charge of what needed to be done, but when I made the preorders go live, I crashed! With nothing much left to be done other than placing orders and now waiting for those orders to arrive, I suddenly found myself in a place of not being able to bring myself to do things. And when I say things, some of that is writing a newsletter, posting on social media, planning my next project etc… I had drained the tank. So, yes, we do need to utilise our masculine energy, but we also need to ensure we are making space for the playful and restful feminine side to come out.
As I am writing this letter, it struck me that I am writing about not doing so much but my subheading says, it’s time start doing! This leads me into the next part…
Your heart is a garden—tend it well, and it will bloom with love in every season.🌹

Over the last few weeks, messages have been appearing to confirm what I have been feeling for awhile now. It’s time to really start walking the talk, or embodying everything I have learned! I have spent the last 4 1/2 years reading, signing up for courses, watching videos, listening to podcasts and so on. I have gone down many rabbit holes, been pulled towards many types of feminine paths, always thinking that “This is the one!” But it is time to let go of all of it. Not forget it, but let go of it. Let me explain…
A few weeks ago I signed up for a video transmission. It was great, and I had a lot of light bulb moments. One of those moments was, it is time to heal the masculine wound within me. Something I knew I had to do, but had been putting off. I kind of adopted this f*** you attitude towards the masculine face of divinity. (Please excuse my language!) But this was the attitude I had. So after watching this video, I thought to myself, “It is time.” I grabbed my pen and journal, and suddenly I channeled a very beautiful message from the Sacred Masculine, welcoming me home. About a week later I had a call with a fellow priestess woman and we spoke about my wounding and relationship with the masculine energy. One bit of advice from her was to just be, simply be. A couple of days later, I thought to myself, I am just going to sit here and just be. I am not going to do a journey like I normally would but just sit. Well, what came through was beautiful. Again it was a message from the Sacred Masculine, but the one thing that was most important in this message, was to stop “learning.” Stop reading, stop doing courses, just stop! Firstly, because I had become attached to everything I had learned or experienced. I had become attached to the multitude of goddesses and gods that had revealed themselves to me. It’s not to say I should forget everything that I was shown or forget how their presence changed my life, but these things were becoming another distraction. I would always become so engrossed in learning about these entities or deities that I wasn’t really integrating anything.
I admit, the thought of letting go of all of it was hard. It had become such a big part of my life. So what was the deeper meaning to all of this? It was for me to rebuild that relationship with the Divine Masculine, by embodying the Divine Feminine. It was time to do. (There’s the doing part!) It was time to stop reading about all of these goddesses, but actually start being a goddess. It was time to go back to the practices that would bring me back into my body, and out of my mind. It was time to start focussing on my healing so that I could become a fully embodied healer. What’s the point of being a healer, if you haven’t healed yourself? What’s the point of learning about other women’s wisdom, if I am not delving into my own wisdom? I learned that lesson where it hurts most, my bank account!
I didn’t heed the advice I was given in my channeled writing. I was right back in there searching for courses to get me where I wanted to be. I had 3 courses picked but I wasn’t sure which one would serve me best, so I did a bit of divination. The one that I was guided to take wasn’t my first choice, and I was a little bit surprised that that was the one I was getting a yes on. I went ahead and bought it. I was really excited to start this course, but that excitement soon led to disappointment, which soon led to anger. I felt so completely ripped off. The course was part of a much longer course that is offered elsewhere. The teacher was mentioning things in her videos that were part of a larger course, which is not on offer through her own website. There are no notes and nowhere to ask questions. This “course” I feel should have been classified as a taster or an extract of a larger one. What was even more frustrating, I didn’t learn anything new. I didn’t learn anything, I had not learned through my own journeys, my own meditations and my automatic writing. Everything that I saw in those videos were things I had been shown from connecting to my inner oracle, my inner seer and my spiritual helpers.
So why did I get “yes” to that course? To show me I hadn’t heeded the advice given to me, and that everything we want to know and learn is already inside of us. I’m not special. I don’t have special powers. This is something all of us can do. We are all oracles, if we take the time to deepen into it. If we take the time to open ourselves up to being receivers of divine wisdom. Everything I learned and experienced through journeys and meditations would reveal itself afterwards through signs and synchronicities to confirm what I had been shown. That was truly incredible! To be given proof of sorts that it wasn’t just my imagination. Dear friends, you are capable of all of this too, and you probably already know this! The first thing I heard when I sat to just be, was this, “There is nothing to be received, that is not already given.” Doesn’t that just say it all?! We already have everything, and everything is already within us. All of us!
What is funny, is that I have ended up coming full circle. I am back at the point that started it all, and that is on a path with Mary Magdalene as the feminine face to embody, which was initiated by my profound dream of Yeshua back in 2019. What is even crazier, for me, is that in May I am off to France! I am going on a Magdalene womb retreat. I will then be taking myself off to Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer to stand on the sands where Mary Magdalene and her companions arrived. Then I am off to Sainte Baume to visit the cave that Mary lived in. I have wanted to go to the south of France for 30 years, for different reasons, but now the time is right. This will be a huge initiation for me, especially since I am scared of flying, and especially from Australia to France! I am even thinking of going to Avalon while I am in Europe.
I find it amazing that life can put us on a trajectory that we weren't expecting to be on. When I started this year, I would never have imagined myself going to France, but this all started because I made a conscious effort to heal something within me. I made a commitment to heal a part of me that needed healing. I have made a commitment to be an embodied healer so I can be a clearer channel for facilitating the healing of others. Walking the path of a healer is a deep calling for me, but first, it starts with mine.
So, my beloved friends, does any of this resonate with you? Are you stuck in mental loops or doing mode? Are you seeking answers and wisdom outside of yourself? Are you avoiding healing a part of you that you know you need to heal? What would happen, what would change in your life if you healed the wounded parts of you? What would happen if you came back to your body and embodied the Divine Feminine? For me that means sacred union with the Divine Masculine. For me, I want to dance that eternal dance of bliss and oneness with the Sacred Masculine. What path are you on?
With all of the above in mind, why not grab your oracle or tarot decks, and use the questions above to communicate with your own inner seer, your own inner oracle. What does your soul want you to heal? And where would that lead you if you did? To go even deeper, sink into your feminine energy. Before doing the reading, grab a special glass or chalice if you have one, fill it with water, and say a blessing or prayer over it, and drink the water. If you have anointing oil, anoint yourself, all over your body. Be deliberate in connecting and dropping into your body. If you don’t have anointing oil, you could use some rose essential oil (diluted of course), especially as this is a special cycle of Venus. Stand in front of a mirror and do some gentle movements bringing complete awareness to your body. Light candles! Then, when you are ready, ask your questions, but you could even try what I did, and just sit and be. Consciously drop all tension from your body. Perhaps have a pen and journal beside you so that you can write down any messages you receive. Don’t worry if nothing comes through this time. Eventually it will, and you can use your cards to help you tap into what you need to.
Perhaps, you already do all of this and have your own rituals. If so, wonderful! If you feel inclined to share, I invite you to do so.

What a beautiful, raw, and exposed share, thank you. I continue working with your Rose oracle and the Lenormand decks. They are extraordinary! That Seeker card is brilliant! Is that part of the Tarot deck?
I have to say, for me I'm working with NOT identifying my behaviors and emotions through the lens as either the masculine divine or the feminine divine. They are both, interwoven/intermingling. Waving back and forth and through at varrying times of the day. Does that make sense? For me, these terms keep me somehow fastened to what I'm wanting to release (patriarchy).
And, I honor your willingness to be vulnerable and thank you for these beautiful and creative offerings!
