The Tale of Robin

 It is nearly April, and the first light of dawn breaks across the horizon, painting the sky in hues of pink and yellow. I perch on the back of a garden bench, my favourite spot; the air is crisp, filled with the sweet scent of awakening life. Spring has arrived, and with it, an orchestra of sounds fills the garden, a melody that stirs my heart and urges me to sing.

Each morning, I awaken to the gentle rustle of leaves and the soft chirping of my fellow bird friends. The garden is a canvas of colours where daffodils and hyacinths stretch toward the sun, their petals yawning in a joyous greeting. Butterflies flit about, their delicate wings splashing colour here and there. I can feel the excitement in the air; nature and I are stirring.

Rockpool Moon Goddess Diary Entry

 For the New Year…

I feel gratitude to the path I walked this year, for the experiences I had, and the people I shared this adventure with. I am also thankful for the learning I received and the wisdom I gained. I give thanks to all my angels, my spirit guides, to Mother Earth, the seasons, the planets and the moon for holding me as I moved through this year. 

I am here for the last days of this year, I made it through those tough times, the challenges, the deep ravines of sadness and trauma, the endless mountains of hardship and the uncertainty. I kept swimming through the oceans of pain and fear. I kept walking and moving and pivoting through it all. I chose to keep going and I’m very proud of myself. I put my hands on my hips, broaden my chest, raise my chin and take a big breath. I realise now that I am strong and competent! I see more clearly than I have before. I am ready to see my magnificence, my potency will increase this coming year. I’m ready to use my gifts and talents to value myself and to sprinkle my magic throughout the world. My vision will be clear and profound as I follow my desires, my groove, my light, my way!

 In the coming year, I will stay open to receiving sprinkles of beauty and wonder, of joy and hope. I’m ready for my ambitions. I’m ready to choose the path for my highest good. Now I will happy dance with my favourite songs. Intake with me a self care toolkit as I swing into my best year ever, I’ll be there for your transformation with radiant sprinkles of love from Nicci Garaicoa

Card reading for January

Firstly, from Caitlin Matthews’ ‘Hallowquest’, I have chosen  ‘Merlin' which is numbered 1 and shows Merlin as a mature and centred man of influence and power, preparing the way for Arthur. Above his head are red and white dragons, locked in combat. Behind his right shoulder is the crumbling castle of the unworthy King Vortigern; behind his left, is a dwelling, created for him by his sister with which to see the heavens. He is looking at a map which is laid out a stone table with the four Hallows, the Sword, Spear, Grail and Stone Chessboard. Merlin was born of an earthly mother and Otherworldly father, giving him knowledge of both physical and non-physical realms. He does not use his power to manipulate but to balance and mediate, to intuit and take wise action. It was foretold that the safety of Vortigern's castle could only be achieved if the blood of a child with no father was sprinkled upon the foundations, and this put Merlin in great danger. However, Merlin proved that the crumbling castle was due to the warring dragons.
