I don’t make any money from Medium, or YouTube, and taking clients is the only way I’m currently bringing in cash. (working on expanging that… stay tuned). If you like what you read or listen to for free on YouTube, sending a little note my way would really mean a lot. I also love your comments!! So leave those too! ❤
In case you needed the reminder, mars turns direct on Sunday, feb 23 — after having been in retrograde for most of the winter (since dec 6th).
over this winter period, we’ve also had … Neptune in retrograde; Uranus in retrograde; mercury retrograde; and Jupiter retrograde.
That means that over the winter period, we have f iv e (5!) planets retrograde.
That is a lot of slow down energy.
Mars is our planet of action — it’s a fire planet, and is associated with the energy or Aries. The timing of the retrograde is pretty spot-on — we’re hanging on through the last dregs of winter and could sure as hell use a little boost in energy. (If you’re like me … I want to cocoon forever, .. until I don’t. I get restless after not having enough social contact and as mush as I love my deep time alone, I also need a change. We all do).
I wanted to speak to you today about the downloads I’m getting around this shift in energy — because for many of us (and most of you who read my blog are deeply sensitive souls), we’re going to be feeling this really intensely.
And the message that I got about the shift in energy was this:
Don’t burn out before you get out of the gate.
Here’s the thing. After month of the energy of action seeming like it’s in slow motion, and moving backwards .. it can feel so tempting to rush. To overplan. To overcommit. (Trust me, I am the queen of making too many plans and then having to bail on half of them).
So as we move into this energy of mars going direct, I’d like to make this one, small, gentle suggestion:
emphasize the space around your dreams.
If you’re like me, you’ve been dreaming and scheming and planning all sorts of wonderful shifts, changes and accomplishments that are sure to come your way (you wouldn’t be deeply dreaming of them if they weren’t for you)!
but just like how we don’t want to overcrowd a garden, we need to leave space for things to grow and take root.
The first garden I ever had? I let my garden-mate take over planting the carrots. Not only did she plant a billion of them, she sprinkled seeds on top of each other so there was minimal spacing between to roots. The result?
A billion, half-grown, very odd looking carrots. They still tasted good, but man would it have been cool to have at least one carrot that had grown to full size.
Give yourself space to breathe. If you tend to be someone who takes on too much, or who is trying to change their ‘no’ narrative by saying ‘yes’ more often, give yourself a limit. Cap the amount of new projects you feel would be reasonable — and when you have that total, take two more things off the list. Trust me.
Things will unfold in their own time. You don’t, and cannot, do it all at once.
Fear — Growth’s savage cousin
Another thing that has been plaguing my insides with this rumbling shift of energy has been the fear that what I’m trying to do just simply isn’t going to work out. That all the stars I’m shooting for are actually just puffs of dust and by the time I get there, they’ll exist no longer.
It’s crap, truthfully, and it’s just fear making a mess out of what my tender heart is striving to create.
The funny thing is, though, (a fact I learned in my deep womb-cave of this retrograde-studded winter), is that no amount of affirmations or positive statements will unpick the fears you have within that are holding you back. They won’t! And anybody who says otherwise is blowing raspberries into your brain. Because when our bodies and energy have a connection to fear based on a belief, it exists wholly, and truly, in our somatic systems. There’s no amount of ‘good vibing’ that will vibe that rotted belief out. We need to prune first, remove the belief, and then plant good stuff.
I’ve tried every other way. None of them work.
That’s why I created this free gift for you!! It’s a gift!! And it’s free!
I sat down and recorded a deep, healing, guided meditation to dive into the realms of your subconscious beliefs and prune out the icky stuff — without feeling like you have to do it on your own.
Believe me. Sitting down, unguided, without any sort of tether to anchor you or rope to pull you in the right direction is freaking hard and we’re frankly not in a place with the planet where we want to be adding more hard stuff to our plate. Um, no thank you. You already tend to your heart and live your life and take care of your body (and presumably countless other friends and people you care about). You’re working on yourself and doing all the right things and when it comes to the next level of your healing, it’s just nice to have help, y’know?
The meditation works with the violet flame (a deep, transmuting code that’s been channelled centuries and uses the colour and frequency of purple (crown chakra, transmutation, transformation), to burn through all the junk you’d otherwise have to dig out.

Please, please, please!!
If you like the meditation or found it helpful, consider subscribing to my YouTube, liking the video or leaving a comment. This is the artist’s plea: Because we are out here creating content in the swath of the masses, we need people like you, with your frequency, to engage so that our work gains traction and it gets out to the right people. The more people like the video, the more people find it. The more people find it, the more people it’ll help. That’s why I’m out here. I just want you to have an easier time navigating GAiA and feeling a little more at home in your body on this earth. It’s my hope (and dreaaammms!) that my recordings, forecasts, articles and teachings help you get there.
I’m also working on two courses right now! One is open for enrolment and is called Basic Mastery. It’s a deep-dive, small group course that will equip you with all the foundation tools I use to tap into and access my intuition, protect my precious energy, and basically kick butt. (No seriously this course will invole a lot of butt-kicking). Enrolment is open, and the course will start in July.
The other course I’m building is called Inner Sanctuary — it’s self-paced, and is just what it sounds like — how the heck we build a truly safe space in our bodies — enough so that we can actually connect to spirit and receive the downloads we’re meant to. Receive downloads isn’t just for intuitives and energy healers. Everyone can access it. It’s just our job to to be the wayshowers.
As usual, of course, I’m open for client bookings and readings. I am truly, deeply, so grateful for each and every one of you and it lights me up to tune in and channel your next steps for you.
We’re all just walking each other home, right?
Let me know how the meditation resonates if you get a chance to try it.
And of course, in every sense of the word, I am sending you deep, loving, (cuddly) blessings.
Xo,
Kate
