The New Moon in Taurus
Time to slow down and get grounded…
The New Moon arrives this weekend in the earthy and sensual sign of the bull. This is a deeply grounding lunation - one that asks us to slow down long enough to reconnect with what truly sustains us.
It’s all about rooting, stabilising, nourishing, and creating safety for growth.
Sensitive Doesn’t Mean Small: On Courage, Risk & Being Highly Sensitive
There's a myth about sensitive people: That we’re risk averse.
That we choose safety over growth.
Ease over challenge.
Comfort over ambition.
And while there can be some truth in this — sensitive nervous systems do feel things more intensely, and high-stress situations can take more of a toll — it’s not the full picture.
The New Moon in Aries
The zodiac wheel has reset, a new astrological year is about to begin — and in walks Aries, the bold, fiery first sign of the zodiac, carrying with it the energy of initiation.
Ruled by Mars, the planet of war, it brings heat, movement, and a spark of life that asks us to step forward… to step up… to become the leader of our own lives.
Connection Without Overwhelm: Socialising as a Sensitive Person
A common misconception: being highly sensitive = being highly introverted
While this can indeed be the case, many sensitive people — myself included — enjoy connection deeply. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that a week without at least a few social interactions leaves me feeling lonely and a little low.
Nervous System Care for Sensitive People
Your nervous system doesn’t need fixing. It needs signals of safety, offered routinely, with compassion.
Regulation doesn’t come from doing more — it comes from doing things differently. Small cues, repeated often, tell your body that it’s safe enough to slow down.
