Hello Travelers,

Welcome to The Practice, where we take spiritual concepts and metaphor and bring them into real life through rituals that help us feel calm, centered, and grounded in the here and now.

This month’s practice is inspired by the Virgo Lunar Eclipse, a moment to release what no longer serves us, especially the shadow expressions of Virgo: perfectionism, self doubt, criticism, and overthinking.

Because this is the final eclipse in a series that began in March 2023, it carries a sense of closure. A doorway that has been open for nearly two years is now ready to close. This is a potent time to consciously clear habits, narratives, and beliefs that have shaped your inner dialogue.

Mercury, ruler of Virgo and this eclipse, is currently retrograde in Pisces. We are in a season of rest, review, and recalibration, particularly in how we think, communicate, and organize information. Pisces balances this energy by inviting compassion, faith and trust.

I chose EFT, Emotional Freedom Technique, for this month’s ritual because it beautifully coincides with these energies. We speak phrases and affirmations out loud, honoring Mercury and the power of language, while tapping on acupressure points in the body, honoring Virgo’s connection to somatic awareness and healing. This combination supports the vagus nerve, helps regulate the nervous system, and creates space for love, acceptance, and release to move through us.

If you would like to skip the introduction, tapping begins at 6:57.

Use this practice as often as you need. Repeat the phrases, change the words, make it your own. EFT can be incredibly supportive for shifting patterns and softening harsh inner narratives.

I would love to hear how this felt for you in the comments.

If this practice stirred something deeper and you feel ready for more personalized support, I invite you to work with me one on one.

In private sessions, we explore your chart, your patterns, and your current season of life through astrology, tarot, and intuitive guidance. These sessions are designed to help you feel clearer, more embodied, and more confident in your next steps.

You can also book a Spiritual Check-In, a focused 60 minute session. Through tarot and energy work, we clear what is not yours, clarify what is, and validate what you already know but may not fully trust. Clients often leave feeling lighter, grounded, and more aligned with themselves.

Room 808 is my dedicated astrology offering. In this session, we explore your natal chart and any current or upcoming transits that are activating your life. If you are wondering how the eclipses, retrogrades, or larger collective shifts are impacting you personally, this is where we map it out. You leave with clarity about timing, themes, and how to work with the timing in your chart.

If relationships are the area asking for attention right now, The Lover’s Atlas is my downloadable relational astrology guide. It walks you through understanding your elemental needs in partnership, offering prompts and insights you can return to again and again. It is a beautiful companion if you are reflecting on connection, compatibility, or your own relational patterns.

Wishing you ease and abundance ✨
