I was asked a strange but enlightening question recently
“What wakes you up in the middle of the night?”
I began questioning myself and was crazily looking for some issue or long forgotten worry that was keeping me from sleep. The truth is I couldn’t find one!
What wakes me in the middle of the night is usually inspiration, information and answers to the questions I have during the day!
I often wake with the most detailed and intense information but never quite get round to doing much with it. The procrastination sets in! You know the type of thing those revolving negative questions like:
What if I am wrong?
What if I am not good enough?
Should I not wait until I have X, Y or Z in place before I start working with this information?
What if no one wants to hear this?
Who am I to share this kind of information with others?
What happens if I don’t act on this information?
When I allow those negative possibilities head space I question things too much. It then throws me completely off track. Often what then happens is the information that I had but wouldn’t share is then mirrored to me as others share it and take it to the next level.
Can you relate to this? It is a horrible situation it leaves you feeling deflated and frustrated, mostly at yourself. Self criticism really does push us down into that space where it seems pointless to do anything.
What is it that really keeps me wakened?
Its that frustration at myself for now grasping every opportunity that I am offered!
Its not personal!
What I have come to understand about this process is that it really is nothing personal.
There is information being made available, we pick up on what is relevant to us, but if we don’t take steps to work with it and go with the flow it dissipates in the light of day. If we don’t take action on what we receive, then someone else who tunes into this information will. It really is that simple.
Learning to trust yourself
Finding a way to trust that intuitive voice and to allow all this lovely information to flow is a must. This is a key aspect in moving forward. expanding your soul star connection can not only gift you this confidence but increase the information downloads and also encourages synchronicities that lead us to where we need to be.
It doesn’t matter whether its relating to your personal journey, your spiritual growth or your work because the process is exactly the same.
How to move forward?
One essence I can recommend to help with this process is “Sirius – Expansive Communication”. Or you could gift yourself a Soul Star Integration session!

Energetic upgrades are definitely no stranger to us this year!
There has been a few discussions going on around me on this topic and it has set me off on a ponder again … oh you know how I love a good ponder!
I was sat outside in the autumnal sunshine, enjoying the warmth and the fresh air. The washing line full and as I watched the washing swinging back and forward ever more wildly trying to find its centre in the ever increasing winds it reminded me of “us” and how we are constantly bombarded by external energies and are therefore constantly trying to gather our energetic “bits” like an over full handbag spilling its contents on the floor as we desperately make a rush for where we are heading…. Needing to run forward while fighting to keep our energy – (like our metaphorical handbag and escaping contents) together.
Perhaps we need to lose that part of ourselves? Perhaps we are in dire need to make room for the new?
We can’t keep returning to where we have been and yet expect to be changed – expect to hold the new that excites us that fires up the energies in our soul … while trying to restrain it in that old handbag that is already bursting at the seems.
We are in energetic upgrade mode – look at our computers- when we continue upgrading there comes a point when some of the programmes we used to run on it are incompatible. We can upgrade, and try to find upgraded compatible programmes, and keep on doing so but there comes a point that no amount of trying can run the old programme anymore, the systems become outdated and incompatible.
Do we find an alternative programme that will do a similar job?
Or like wearing water wings when we learn to swim – there comes a point when they are superfluous and we really just need to let go and trust in ourselves and our ability to navigate the new?
If we are happy to run on “almost” functioning programmes that get us “by” then that is really ok ! We don’t NEED to upgrade if it renders us so uncomfortable. We can learn, and in fact should learn to do things at our own pace.
However there will come a time when the system fails and no amount of engineering will “fix” it.
It may well be that this is all of our life and that we can meander quite happily through our lifetime running this programme – diligently tweaking where necessary.
However if a large surge of energy occurs suddenly and we are forced to upgrade then it is sure to cause feelings of disruption and discomfort.
Think on it like if our pc breaks down and we have to buy a new one, it generally happens at a totally inconvenient time and costs a little too much. We are generally knee deep in work when it happens and the cost then becomes not only an added energetic outlay ( think financial) one but costs us a lot in time and effort. We have to learn how to navigate the new system as well as unfamiliar tools just when we could do without the added hassle!
If we suddenly are disconnected from the energies that we are familiar with we can end up feeling like a fish out of water or like a little fishy just set free in an ocean full of unfamiliar and overwhelming currents.
When upgrades are imminent we can be surrounded by people who are at a similar place, which holds some comfort and yet some confusion. Some will try and convince us we will be fine running this old programme or in fact do without it, while others will be adamant that we need to take the plunge and upgrade NOW like our life literally depends on it!
This is where your own inner sat nav NEEDS to be engaged.
What is right for you? Is staying in the energy of the “old” making you feel stifled and restricted? Is change making you feel like everything is going to fast and crumbling around you?
Where feels right for you? where do you need to be?
There are trail blazers, there are way showers, there are comforters there are key holders and many, many more roles. You need to find your role within the upgrade.
Hey and just to complicate things we don’t always accept the same role in each upgrade. Sometimes we are the front runners, integrating and digesting the process as we run forward ( remember the running while stuffing things into the handbag analogy?) We can take responsibility for highlighting the way for others ….
Then again sometimes we are more passive and stand with the sign posts helping others on their way. At the same time we can be the ones who sit and resist the process until we no longer have a choice.
It is always our choice in which category we wish to be part of and its allowing ourselves the freedom to be the one that is most compatible with us at that time. Some people get in a pickle if they find themselves in different territory to the usual. However we need to take things at our own pace and if that means rushing to the front, even though leading scares us, or as a natural leader having to take a seat and allow the process to run and others to facilitate our safe arrival at our destination – the process of giving up that element of control can be further out of our comfort zones than we have ever been. Yet the lessons contained there for us will be worth more than their weight in gold.
Know that as with every upgrade we WILL find our way – its more about staying comfortable and not overwhelming ourselves in the process ….
Wishing you the clarity to find your role and your way in these turbulent times,
with much starlight love, Sally xxx

However there will come a time when the system fails and no amount of engineering will “fix” it.
It may well be that this is all of our life and that we can meander quite happily through our lifetime running this programme – diligently tweaking where necessary.
However if a large surge of energy occurs suddenly and we are forced to upgrade then it is sure to cause feelings of disruption and discomfort.
Think on it like if our pc breaks down and we have to buy a new one, it generally happens at a totally inconvenient time and costs a little too much. We are generally knee deep in work when it happens and the cost then becomes not only an added energetic outlay ( think financial) one but costs us a lot in time and effort. We have to learn how to navigate the new system as well as unfamiliar tools just when we could do without the added hassle!
If we suddenly are disconnected from the energies that we are familiar with we can end up feeling like a fish out of water or like a little fishy just set free in an ocean full of unfamiliar and overwhelming currents.
When upgrades are imminent we can be surrounded by people who are at a similar place, which holds some comfort and yet some confusion. Some will try and convince us we will be fine running this old programme or in fact do without it, while others will be adamant that we need to take the plunge and upgrade NOW like our life literally depends on it!
This is where your own inner sat nav NEEDS to be engaged.
What is right for you? Is staying in the energy of the “old” making you feel stifled and restricted? Is change making you feel like everything is going to fast and crumbling around you?
Where feels right for you? where do you need to be?
There are trail blazers, there are way showers, there are comforters there are key holders and many, many more roles. You need to find your role within the upgrade.
Hey and just to complicate things we don’t always accept the same role in each upgrade. Sometimes we are the front runners, integrating and digesting the process as we run forward ( remember the running while stuffing things into the handbag analogy?) We can take responsibility for highlighting the way for others ….
Then again sometimes we are more passive and stand with the sign posts helping others on their way. At the same time we can be the ones who sit and resist the process until we no longer have a choice.
It is always our choice in which category we wish to be part of and its allowing ourselves the freedom to be the one that is most compatible with us at that time. Some people get in a pickle if they find themselves in different territory to the usual. However we need to take things at our own pace and if that means rushing to the front, even though leading scares us, or as a natural leader having to take a seat and allow the process to run and others to facilitate our safe arrival at our destination – the process of giving up that element of control can be further out of our comfort zones than we have ever been. Yet the lessons contained there for us will be worth more than their weight in gold.
Know that as with every upgrade we WILL find our way – its more about staying comfortable and not overwhelming ourselves in the process ….
Wishing you the clarity to find your role and your way in these turbulent times,

Energetic upgrades are definitely no stranger to us this year!
There has been a few discussions going on around me on this topic and it has set me off on a ponder again … oh you know how I love a good ponder!
I was sat outside in the autumnal sunshine, enjoying the warmth and the fresh air. The washing line full and as I watched the washing swinging back and forward ever more wildly trying to find its centre in the ever increasing winds it reminded me of “us” and how we are constantly bombarded by external energies and are therefore constantly trying to gather our energetic “bits” like an over full handbag spilling its contents on the floor as we desperately make a rush for where we are heading…. Needing to run forward while fighting to keep our energy – (like our metaphorical handbag and escaping contents) together.
Perhaps we need to lose that part of ourselves? Perhaps we are in dire need to make room for the new?
We can’t keep returning to where we have been and yet expect to be changed – expect to hold the new that excites us that fires up the energies in our soul … while trying to restrain it in that old handbag that is already bursting at the seems.
We are in energetic upgrade mode – look at our computers- when we continue upgrading there comes a point when some of the programmes we used to run on it are incompatible. We can upgrade, and try to find upgraded compatible programmes, and keep on doing so but there comes a point that no amount of trying can run the old programme anymore, the systems become outdated and incompatible.
Do we find an alternative programme that will do a similar job?

Learning the ins and outs of how our energy presents, its quirks and triggers and how it responds to the collective energies that buffer us constantly is one of the keys to mastering the self. We do not have to be a victim of energetic circumstance but a willing participator in the energetic dance.
If we begin to view ourselves as energetic beings then we can relate to the wider world of energy around us.
Everything is energy – without it physical matter decays and rots. Energy cannot be destroyed but it transforms and transmutes into other forms.
Probably the easiest example to use when viewing this is the energy of water – in various energetic states it moves from solid ice, to liquid, to highly energised liquid then to vapour. At anyone time in the world water is present in its various forms. The variables to how water presents depends on the energetic’s of the field it is most closely related to.
Similarly on a spiritual level we don’t suddenly become something energetically when we are born but rather our previous energy form is catapulted into a physical body and we assume the energetic form of human.
If you imagine a sheet, and that the sheet is literally a field of energy. Within this energy field there is constant movement to liken it to anything in the physical field it’s a bit like a sheet in the wind. When energy pools in certain areas it forms a crease or crinkle or pocket in the sheet. In an energetic field those creases represent what has taken physical form.
Within this energetic field our energy is never static but constantly flowing in the waves that in effect we are. The energy around us is never static either and has a bearing on how our own energy is. We are after all part of this sheet that has built up a sort of “solidity” for want of a better word, within this specific energy. When the wind – or the energy out with the field of energy we are in causes a distortion (blows the sheet – both gently or wildly) then we feel it relatively within our physical bodies. We are part of the unified field of energy yet separate in our form of creation.
Right now our sheet is being pulled and wafted in all sorts of directions. We have all the global stuff going on that affects us a la butterfly effect. Then there are potent energies blowing in from the stars and beyond.
Don’t forget the ripples that our constantly shifting energy creates and the ripples and beyond created by the earth and her vibrations too.
We have a valuable opportunity to be present with our own energy whilst being immersed in the huge field of potent energy that surrounds us – we have to focus on being “strong” and “resilient” while remaining completely malleable and flexible.
Our true strength is often shown beautifully in the acceptance and understanding of our weaknesses.
We also interestingly speak about our emotions being “frozen” and when they are in this state it takes a whole lot of energy to get the medium that allows these emotions to flow again and finally dissipate transformed into free flowing vapour. We shouldn’t hold on to energy in this rigid way as it leads to stagnation and weighing down. However we tend to deal partially with the problem and refreeze the leftovers to go through the thawing and evaporating process at another level when we are ready.
If you want to achieve a specific goal then match that vibration to enable the vibrational reality of that goal to be accessible and acceptable to your personal energy!
It is really all about the Energy!

Breakdown or Breakthrough? Yes the choice is ours!
I recently took a step back from anything that I literally didn’t “have” to do in favour of nurturing myself and having a well earned rest. I had been feeling increasingly triggered by everything and I had so much going on I really wanted to roar and just be left with my own energy to rest and refocus.
It’s not a nice feeling – I knew something was going on for me but I was unable to see what it was. So I retreated into myself – I had a brief few hours where I had that awful feeling where I couldn’t see the way forward and everything was full of gloom and doom. I felt the weight of the world on my shoulders and I felt almost everyone within that world conspiring against me and restricting everything from my circumstances to my physical being.
Thankfully I had the awareness to see this for what it was and rather than fall down a deep hole, I could actually now take the time to explore this energy. I felt like I was going through a process of imploding and exploding over and over again. I was exhausted. However when I stopped fighting it – the waves of discomfort slowed in their intensity.
Rather than breaking down and feeling like I was going under I began to see glimmers of light. I began to breakthrough the barrier and shed the structure that had tightly held me, a bit like a butterfly breaking free from a chrysalis.
During the process you can’t see your way forward, everything feels like it is breaking down and you feel that you are being swallowed up by everything around you. However that is when the magic happens, that is when you can begin to reform your energetic signature, when you have the chance to shift through previous barriers and restrictions.
During this process you have to be bold but the boldness is not an external or “doing” thing it is having the strength to look deep within, really looking into the depths and allowing yourself to see what is going on, knowing that shining the light of awareness on it that you have the opportunity to transform it into something fresh and new. To turn it into something more fitting with the version of you that you are having the opportunity to evolve into. You need to let go of some aspect you don’t want to be able to create the room for something new and that also is true of energy. If we keep the old vibration then we will always have that attachment that will hold us in an energetic place where we no longer need to be.
So, when feelings of overwhelm arise and you begin to have these horrid feelings rather than falling down that hole – why not take time to explore and consciously assist this process.
You get to choose what parts you are no longer willing to allow to restrict you and in overseeing what you replace with a more positive light you are stepping up and taking responsible action for your own growth.
It may well be difficult but it will be worth its weight in gold!

I have been keeping a close eye on what has been going on energy wise – mainly because I have found the energies just a little bit tricky. I know a few people have been struggling with it so thought I would share and see if I can shed a little light on what is going on.
We are now in what is often referred to as Eclipse season and we kick started the process last week with a total solar eclipse which was sadly not visible from here in the UK.
I found that energy really pokey for want of a better word. For a few hours before the eclipse and for around 18 hours after I felt like I had been put onto fast forward. There was thoughts and energy coursing through my body that I couldn’t physically keep up with – it was exhausting!
Thankfully that settled but was soon replaced with lots of peaks and troughs of energy. I felt full of energy and motivated one minute and thrown into exhaustion and confusion the next. Thankfully I was totally aware of what was going on and was able to support myself. It feels at times – like I am melting and dissolving into a new upgraded version of me.
By the weekend all seemed calm but then yesterday things started to shift up a gear. It seems we are also having the energetic effects of both Mercury and Chiron retrograde. Mercury retrogrades can often feel like anything that can go wrong does and that we just don’t get anywhere fast, especially when it comes down to communications. I don’t feel it like this at all this time and if anything am more driven than I have been for a few months now. Chiron is often referred to as the wounded healer and I feel this is influencing a huge part of what is going on energetically right now. We are being offered a platform to release wounds that we may even be unaware that we have been carrying. ( Please note than I am not an astrologer and I don’t profess to fully understand anything of these planetary influences other than how I feel them personally)
The energy really has a “wake up and smell the coffee” vibe. It is not a time to sit and wait for things to happen but to get our sleeves rolled up and take full responsibility for our energetic housekeeping. Ditch what you don’t want including outdated patterns and self limiting views. Allow the synchronicities that arise when we do this to lift you to where you need to be. Don’t over analyse, don’t procrastinate – its time to dive in and flow with all this potent energy and see where it takes you.
It seems we are being offered an opportunity to really shift through a whole lot of “old” stuff but without really having to dig into it. A lot of people have been picking up on the weaving thread ( pardon the pun) and it is indeed a time to realign the thread that runs through our own lives and all our energetic experiences. There is a spiralling and cyclical feel to the process and as we twist and turn through this spiral we arrive at the point where we can choose what threads we connect and which we dismantle. We only have small windows of this though and therefore need to be nimble and not over think the process – feel into the energy and allow that to guide the re patterning process.
There is a feeling of timelines collapsing and that we either bring forward the energy from that time or don’t. There is no revisit promised and lessons are being compacted. Can you feel it? Do you feel the potential? Will you be brave and allow this ripple of energy to create a lasting change within and for you?
I encourage you to explore over the next few weeks and to be BOLD – be COURAGEOUS – be unapolagetically YOU.
YOU are the one you have been waiting for – and the TIME is NOW
I witness your metamorphosis through the eyes of my own change

Have you always felt there was something important you should be doing but could never quite put your finger on it?
Do you bury this feeling under a mound of day to day stuff until it surfaces and the feeling of dissatisfaction raises its head again?
I fully understand your pain ~ I was that person too!
Sometimes it is easier to stick with what we know than getting out of our comfort zone and allowing those uncomfortable places lead us towards something new. That fear of not being good enough, that feeling of being too vulnerable if we dare to be different, the fear of being judged. The list is endless.
The loneliest I have ever felt was not being alone but being surrounded by people who were so totally different from me and my constant striving to try and understand these people and to find how to squeeze myself into a box that just wasn’t for me.
Unfortunately this happens too often for too many people. Is it any wonder we feel overwhelmed and jaded, even more so when that nagging feeling of having to break out and find our true path arises.
As children we gravitate to what we love and what feeds our soul, however as we grow we learn that these things often bring negative attention from friends and adults. We feel that we need to somehow blend in with those around us so that we don’t fall victim of ridicule or exclusion. We leave our soul passions gathering dust in some long forgotten corner of ourselves.
When the feeling that you need to do something “more” it is that little spark that is in that dusty corner that is desperately trying to get our attention.
The truth is If we spend our lives being something we’re not then this feeling is never going to go away!
My biggest catalyst to finding what and where those puzzle pieces were was Vibrational Essences, they assist us in self enquiry and help us to be aware of what we need and also the outdates patterns that hold us back from achieving this.
When I began connecting with the Starlight Essences I opened up the part of myself that had been trying to get my attention for most of this lifetime and I also reconnected to my souls starlight blueprint that brought in a whole new outlook on life.
I have found others also benefit from connecting to that starlight part of themselves. We all have that connection, we are all aware of the influence of astrology has for us and that links external starlight to the light we hold inside.
Here is what Sharon had to say about her experience of the meditation:
“Receiving my Starlight Immersion has been a beautiful way to re-connect with an aspect of my Being I’ve been unconscious of in this lifetime.
I felt that by receiving this immersion a ‘missing piece’ of Nature has been restored to me…a part which is fundamental to so many other parts… but which until now has been totally overlooked Sally holds a beautiful and safe space to allow this re-connection to happen. I found the experience profound, simple, and deeply nourishing. It’s like I’ve called a missing part of myself back home.Thank You Sally”
I would like to offer you the opportunity of a free guided “ Starlight Immersion meditation” with the supportive energy of Moldavite – The star born stone of transformation. This meditation will assist you to explore that part of you hidden in the dusty recess and help you find your way forward that feeds your soul.

Energy is fluid in its movements and as we dance with this cascading energy – we too are part of this dance and are constantly growing and expanding ourselves, our ideas, our energy and our trajectory in life. Always shedding outdated modes of being and unhelpful patterns.
Sometimes the shifts are small and swift, other times they can be a long process that requires a lot of self exploration and work. Sometimes they flow with ease other times we can feel totally fragmented for a while and then need to work on pulling all the pieces together again in our new updated template.
Often when we are first pursuing what we see as our path we can become overwhelmed and feel that we are stuck – there are many reasons for this feeling but more about that at a later date.
The further along your spiritual path you are the more often this process is repeated. It eventually becomes like second nature but you learn quickly to discern when things are going smoothly and when you need to look for external input to provide the support and encouragement to take the process to the next stage.
It is like constantly being in a state of pregnancy and birth. We seed ideas and changes, we gestate and nurture them and then finally birth them. Sometimes some idea, concept or work, in what ever form it takes, is birthed through us. Other times it is like we ourselves are reborn to an upgraded version of who we are. Finding someone to be your “Ascension Midwife” can really help you to understand how to explore this process and to fully engage and get the most out of it.
We need to learn how to self inquire but also to create a dialogue with the energy that we are working with. One of our greatest helps which is sadly often one of the most overlooked is that we firstly need to really get to know ourselves to know our weaknesses and to build on them where we can turning them into ally’s rather than shackles that bind us. To know our own energy so that we can discern swiftly what isn’t ours. To understand how we process things and what we need in order to shift anything that takes on a stuck energy.
We must always be accountable for our own energy and for our choices in our interactions in the world. The choice of reaction is always within us. It isn’t about being perfect and never having a negative thought or deed. It’s about being real and in noticing when we are aligned or when we have entered into a lower vibrational exchange of energy. Its in choosing to let go what no longer resonates with us and finding and embracing what does.
It is really important to continue the learning, growth and expansion process. It is also important to find people who can support you in various areas of your life this can range from simply having friends and family who support you but it also should include therapists who can work in various ways to help you when energy is out of alignment or in need of a boost. It can also entail finding a coach or mentor for the times when your own discernment falters and needs a helping hand.
However the BIG thing with this is to choose wisely!
There are no rights or wrongs and what you need is to find a team that supports you and doesn’t enforce their views or dogmas onto you. If someone offers to do the work for you or refuses to acknowledge that your own version of events is right for you and that you only need support to work through it my advice would be to run a mile and fast!
Always trust your own intuitive judgement above all else. Others are only there to support and guide you not mould you to their ways.
There is a real need for this support network though and I am also often interested in what my support team do to enhance their growth. Don’t be afraid to look around and to ask questions to make sure that you are compatible with who you choose to support you. No matter who you work with you will have to be prepared to put in work and effort yourself. The more you put in the more you get out of it.
When it comes to energetic expansion, stagnation is never a good option. We all need to be upgrading our knowledge and skills regularly. That doesn’t mean continuously taking courses in more and more things but honing and updating our skills and updating our thought patterns and perceptions of reality and also remembering to care for our physical and emotional wellbeing as part of that mix.
As we grow we shed many skins and a timely reminder that true growth is not the addition of adornments in whatever shape or form they take but in the stripping away of all the unnecessary and cumbersome baggage that we have carried often not just in this life but from many previous ones. The process is not always an easy one but is always worth its weight in gold in the end.
If you are looking to find your support team I may well be able to help. So why not arrange a free chat to gain insight around your needs. Here is my diary link https://sallyarthurs.youcanbook.me
If I cant help you I have a strong support network that I can point you in the right direction for what you need.
I look forward to interacting with you in the near future

I always believe there is divine timing in everything and although I can’t always see it I can feel the enormity of it working away in the background.
I had been guided to release my essence range and to take my programme introducing “A Starlight led journey of self discovery” to the next level. I had been carefully planning what I was doing and everything was going to plan when there was a sudden urgency to just get it “out there”
I found myself going live with my visible offer much earlier than I had planned and it almost felt that everything was being taken from my hands and divine guidance had kicked in. I needed to let go and trust the process.
Then suddenly I was thrown a curved ball ~ within a few days of releasing all that I had been guided to, my beautiful 11 year old Border collie was suddenly taken ill. I had that nagging feeling that it wasn’t just a simple blip but I was devastated to find that she was in fact approaching her last few days and there was literally nothing that could be done.
We were devastated, she was our beautiful girl and we certainly weren’t prepared for this. The next morning it was clear she was struggling more than usual and that she was in some pain and was just so tired. I was solely responsible for making the decisions to make sure her passing was peaceful and that she didn’t suffer any more than she had to. She was “my girl” and it was always me she came to however I was struggling with my heart and my head unable to think clearly and obviously totally emotionally overwhelmed. I felt I couldn’t manage to do this! I wanted to bury my head in the sand and not have to stand and face the situation and do what needed to be done.
I took some of my “Gentle Warrior” essence – which helps you to deal with things you would rather not have to or don’t feel you have the emotional strength to. It really did help and literally within minutes of taking it, and without over thinking I found myself on the phone to the vet tearfully discussing our options – actually there weren’t any I just needed to be 100% sure I was making the decision for Meg’s needs and not prolonging her suffering for my own needs.
We arranged a time for that evening and we proceeded to spend our last day together trying to make the most of it. We went for a short walk and had lots of interaction while trying to keep everything as “normal” as we possibly could. I used the “Gentle Warrior” essence several times over the space of the morning.
Around lunch time I began using some “Leaf litter” essence on Meg, gently rubbing it over her ears which seemed to be where she was comfortable with it. I also began taking some of it myself. (This essence from Jan Stewart’s essence range helps us with transitional phases and letting go)
I used a room spray with essential oils and essences that I often used and felt it was helping to keep the energy clear and focussed with a sense of familiarity. It was obviously a very emotionally charged day but we managed to keep things fairly calm and allowed Meg to do what she felt , sleep was becoming increasingly deep and longer as the day went on.
As the dreaded time was approaching I took both “Gentle Warrior” and “Leaf Litter” again – also offering the latter to Meg, and sprayed the room liberally with our familiar spray. She was comfortable and as long as I was near her she was settled.
Soon after when the familiar face of the vet arrived I felt really able to be fully there for Meg and to put my own emotional turmoil on the back burner.
So on the 26th September, on her favourite blanky with her favourite treats and a huge cuddle and lots of reassuring words the final act of kindness for her was performed and feeling the love all around her she slipped gently from this world.
It was a beautiful and fitting farewell to such a beautiful being and “Gentle Warrior” Essence helped me to keep it all together when I really had to. I was extremely grateful for having been able to do this for her.
I also carried through with the process of releasing my essences and spoke with several people I had arranged to over the coming days. I took Gentle Warrior when I felt the need and I walked through this period of time with a commitment to divine timing and in honour of my beautiful girl.
I really began to understand the power of this gentle essence and see how it could be helpful in so many situations.
It had originally came through to help support parents of special needs children who were having a hard time and having to stand up for their children against the system. However any situation that requires your focus and attention when you feel emotionally exhausted and would rather run a mile could be faced with conviction with this gentle ally.
If you would like to find out how this essence could support you please drop me an email at sallyarthursemotionalwellbeing@outlook.com or message me via Facebook.

I’ve been working on some deep stuff the last few weeks and wanted to share, working as usual with various essences and I had begun to write up a report on a recent plant journey with Nettle that I had been part of.
This journey had really highlighted how my body had held old emotional trauma that had become pain in the physical. I had a real urge to share this as it felt a significant journey. However no matter what I tried the writing felt a bit clunky and not quite right so I saved the document I had and went to bed to ponder on it over night. I wondered what else needed to be added or if it was in fact something that didn’t need to be shared?
To understand this next part of the journey I will share briefly my Nettle journey.
As a group we had walked into the forest to meet Nettle and communicated with the plant by drawing the image we saw and paying attention to what we heard and felt. We regrouped and shared our intentions for our journey with Nettle. I chose to let go of fear, to remove anything that was holding me back and for insights into my own personal journey.
We then danced blind fold, feeling the music and how our bodies responded to it. Mine responded like a petulant teenager. An old Sciatica problem was very apparent and my left hip area just didn’t want to move. The more I tried to persuade it the tighter it got and the pain increased. Feeling into the teenager vibe I was suddenly drawn back to a painful time in my life at school, where I was a loner and didn’t really fit in. At that time I had wished to be completely invisible to others so that I didn’t feel their judgemental looks. Looking at this now – I have a need to be visible with many areas of work now and this being invisible was still blocking me in some way. Good – Nettle was getting down into the depths of where I needed to go to remove this outdated mind set.
We then drank a nettle brew and entered into a shamanic journey for further insights. I felt drawn to lying on my left side which was quite painful and seemed a bit odd but I ran with it. I communicated further with that lonely teenage within me and made amends with her – lying on my side had been like a way of showing I was willing to protect the hurt , or at least the part of me that was hurting. I felt incredibly tired after the journey and went home to sleep soundly.
When I woke in the morning there was no tightness like there usually was in my hip. I felt like something had been removed from that area and that was related to this old state of emotional disharmony. The pain has so far not returned and I feel taller and less restricted in my hip area.
This has continued for around ten days now. I was amazed by the results and decided to document it in detail.
So back to the beginning of the story,
I spent an unsettled night and on top of that the dog was up several times in the night resulting in very little sleep. I struggled to get up and as I was running late for work. I decided to take the short route rather than my usual, preferred more scenic walk. I immediately felt a little apprehensive and felt my left hip area tighten in response.
On brief investigating it made sense in conjunction with the work I had done with Nettle as this walk would entail me walking part of the very same way that I had done to school. I didn’t have much choice as I would add too much time on to the journey if I went the usual route.
Rushing along feeling the “normal” twinges and finding the muscles of my legs literally objecting by responding with twinges of pain. I decided to approach the subject consciously as I walked down through the masses of Impatiens flowers and Willow trees over the old familiar green bridge towards my destination and the site of my old school. I was greeted at the far side of the bridge by a patch of tall Nettle. I knew that I was walking through a portal of change.
I was surprised to note just how many times I would have been immersed in all this plant energy in some form all those years ago. The plants and trees I was now passing would also have been younger and their energy of a different vibration. A familiarity was swelling up and I was grateful to be able to now acknowledge the nature of these plants that I had encountered without any form of real connection before.
Legs tiring slightly and familiar psoas muscle twinges kick in stronger and more persistent but I kept going onwards up that hill I had rushed up so many other mornings.
The school has been knocked down and rebuilt and is now a bright, modern primary school. As I paused I felt that old part of me go off and climb the stairs however rather than being met with fear and darkness of the old energy there was a bright vibrant space. I felt in this new space a lightness and an excitement. I saw it filled with all the people who are near and dear to me, my family and friends and all the wonderfully supportive people that I am lucky to have in my life.
The old teenage part of me stayed there socialising as the physical me marched up the next part of the hill at the front of the school, past the familiar beech hedges to the other entrance. I gently called on the teen me and she was so busy greeting and chatting with others I had to call her again.
As she reintegrated with me I could really feel the energy wind its way through my central column and take its rightful place.
On down the hill towards work, past the Castle that has featured quite a lot for me over the last few years – I suddenly remembered my fascination with it during my school photography club days. I carried on down the road under the shelter of the row of Red and White Chestnut trees. …. Heavy with their conkers now, the identifying flowers long gone. However their energy cleansing and clearing all the old outdated mind set as I counted and acknowledged all 11 of them. I had consciously connected with the larger at either end of the row and felt that sense of familiarity rise, how many times in years gone by had I walked under this very same row of trees?
I felt cleansed and fresh as I crossed the road heading for work now. It felt like a layer of scaffolding that had surrounded me just fell away. The pain melted and as I walked on 3 tall Nettle popping through the hedge at eye level caught my vision. Like the Nettle I too felt tall and strong. What a reminder of just who was the catalyst for this inner journey.
I know that I have now completed what I had to do as per my intentions of working with Nettle and that I have healed at a whole different level than before. Is my healing journey over? Heck no I have merely released one of the layers that was holding me back and causing me physical problems. I will no doubt be guided back to some other area in due time.
This is why I love my work so much, working with the nature realm brings possibilities to shift our whole perspective that can literally be life changing. With Every old layer of buried emotional discomfort that we can remove we allow ourselves to flow forward without being caught in the outdated and unhelpful default patterns that we can find ourselves stuck in.
When you are ready to do the work it is amazing what can be achieved!
Much love

P.P.S – One of the essences that I have used to support me on this journey was “Dreaming in a New World” that was co created with an amazing group of women who are fellow Essence producers and therapists in the South of France earlier this year. So gratitude to these ladies, to Nettle and to all the opportunities for growth that I have been gifted.
Onwards and upwards!!

We are in interesting times, there is a deep remembering going on. The solar and stellar energies we are currently bathing in are potent to say the least. We are able to access these amazing energies with a heightened awareness.
I personally am being pulled back to working with star codes and their messages that speak deeply to the corresponding codes that we have in our own genetic blue print.As they speak to me I can feel the pathways within me lighting up and a sense of feeling stronger in myself. A deep knowing that is consciously unknown yet deeply understood at a cellular level.
Surrendering to this process and watching the synchronistic events unfold has been swift and enlightening.
It is time to be truly ourselves with no other reason for that being… not to make us more this or that, or to find us a better job, love, happiness or whatever other external thing that we may have been chasing. A real need to be in our own bodies and impeccably aware of the reality of that. Acknowledging the vastness of our connection to our external world and beyond.
Feel into things and understand from a place of vulnerable curiosity. Be open to the possibilities that are being laid before us. Feel the energy dance with your own and see its reflection in your soul.
The divine feminine – the blue rose – a long hidden lineage is awakening – can You feel it?
Can you feel it in the whispers of the breeze? Can you sense it in the perfection of every drop of water? Do you recognise it by the colours that are painting our realities in the skies, in the vibrant hue of the flowers and in the simplistic complexity of everything that we choose to see? Can you hear it in the call of the bird or the rush of the flowing river? Can you see it in the blink of an eye ~ dancing light~ that catches your vision momentarily?
I am un – becoming me … unravelling the threads that have woven unnecessary coats and their subsequent roles for me. In this deconstruction I feel bliss and know that the metamorphosis that we are all going through is something that we need but don’t consciously understand. Trusting in the process and following our inner guidance allows us to flow gracefully into the realms of new understanding – leading the way and simplifying it for others who follow in our wake.
Let yourself be guided by your feelings and don’t look back – Sensitivity is our strength, embrace it and allow your inner most being, the one who has laid hidden and unheard, to emerge into the light of day. Embrace yourself in the fullest form as we declare our existence, like the first spring flowers proud and unencumbered by aeons of judgement and silence.
It Is Time ~~~

There is so much talk about the new energies coming in and energetic shifts in general and for many it can be really disorientating.
These shift have been happening since time immemorial but there have been significant shifts in the energy around and within us very recently. Everyone is being affected to a greater or lesser degree. You can see it in how many people are feeling overwhelmed, confused, dissatisfied with certain aspects of both their personal life and the “ways of the world” in general. While others are feeling just plain out of sorts. Often the its the vagueness and the fact that they cant quite put their finger on the source of their unrest that can amplify the discomfort.
I know this week I have been swamped with feelings of strong vibrations running through my system and it can make me feel quite unbalanced and uncomfortable. In energetic terms our bodies are being upgraded – flooded with a different vibrational energy than are used to and it will feel uncomfortable until it has been integrated and digested.
With each shift we move slightly but there comes a tipping point when our bodies have to alter to be able to contain the energy level that we are now vibrating at. Due to these physical alterations (at a cellular level) – our reference point that helps us orientate on a physical level has shifted, and we struggle finding balance and stability.
It’s a bit like being at a party and your favourite song is on you dance away knowing the rhythm and the pattern of the song then suddenly a different unknown song comes on. You must dance to this new tune but it can feel clumsy to move to this rhythm at first.
With a little effort you begin to move in sync to the music, there will be times that the pattern of the song changes and as you’re not familiar with it you will be thrown off balance again. Once you have heard the song a few times you become comfortable and more in tune with its unique pattern and rhythm. The difference here is that the old song we once danced to no longer exists.
For some the energetic changes are happening relentlessly and they feel they are never quite getting to know the song / energy fully. However, there are some stages where that is the case. We don’t need to dwell and become intimate with every level that we shift through. The ones that we do linger on we have to become masters at being at one with this frequency.
Trying to override the energy/song with the old rhythm and pattern only serves to make us feel uncomfortable and completely out of balance with all that is around us. Learning to let go the safety and security of the old is what prolongs the rebalancing process. We must let go and surrender to the new rhythm /energetic pattern that our bodies are now holding in order to bring us into that centred place of comfort, understanding and calm awareness.
We can’t understand the new if we keep our sight firmly focussed on the old. We can’t understand the French language by reading a reference book written in Spanish. We must immerse ourselves in understanding our new reference point and the renewed insights and opportunities it gives us.
We need to allow ourselves to be flexible in order to align ourselves fully with these changes. The shifts are inevitable, it is part of the natural progression of life, of the spiritual laws, of the universal consciousness.
Finding the tools to help with this assists us in the integration. My tools of choice are flower and vibrational essences, crystals and plenty rest to enable me process things as effortlessly as possible. I certainly have no notion to make anything harder or more prolonged than it needs to be!
I hope that you are learning to dance to your new tune with ease and grace. If however you feel the need of some assistance I will be offering some free one to one sessions at some point in the next month so look out for details popping into your inbox soon.
Much love

The recent white out across the UK has had me thinking on just how much this type of curved ball can send a sensitive person into a bit of a spin. It’s not so much as the event or circumstances but the responses that it brings.
Often, as highly sensitive souls we have a very strong nurturing streak and anything that brings difficulties to others triggers our need to step up to help them or sort things out. Again this isn’t necessarily a bad thing but it can cause us to become frazzled as we battle against the odds (in this case the snow and the restrictions it brought) to try and cater for those around us needs.
We get caught up in the very yang process of a great need to “do” something when often a softer place of balance between yin/yang brings its own unique qualities. We have to “be” enough so that we can hear our inner guidance to know we are “doing” what is needed and is the most suitable course of action.
When caught up like this we totally overlook our own needs and here lies the root of our problem. We put ourselves to the back of the queue, and go into hyper drive bustling and fussing over others, and it almost seems the more obstacles we come across, the more we feel the need to push against them.
Whilst admirable on some levels and almost always fascinating how our resourcefulness comes out. Our baking and making skills are often accessed as is our creative approach to problem solving. We often push our options to the extreme and just don’t like to admit defeat on a practical level (or actually on any level). However emotionally we can feel that we have reached our “limit” and just couldn’t possibly handle “One more thing”
We aren’t super human and need to remember to honour our own boundaries and to rest up both physically and mentally. Boundaries on all levels – mental, physical, spiritually and emotionally are very important to highly sensitive souls.
Poor physical boundaries lead to exhaustion; on a basic level we are expending a lot of energy without taking any steps to replenish it in any way. Poor mental boundaries can mean our thoughts are in over drive and we feel frazzled. Many describe it as not being able to hear themselves speak for the noisy thoughts spiralling through their mind. Spiritually we can fall into either end of the scale and can feel totally disconnected or be so absorbed on a spiritual level that we aren’t grounded enough to bring through our ideas into the physical realm. Emotionally poor boundaries lead to a feeling of confusion and helplessness. We are so porous that what we pick up emotionally from others can be mistaken as our own.
Without a little self care we will burn out and be of no real help to those we had set out to help in the first place.
When feeling frazzled ask yourself a few quick and simple questions
Have I eaten lately? – We are often very prone to overlooking even our most basic needs. Eating is also a really good way to bring energy fully into the body not only are we replenishing some energy from the food but we bring our energy focus fully into the body in the process of digestion.
Am I having proper rest and /or enough sleep? – Often pushing through the tiredness barrier or not sleeping well due to an overactive mind becomes the norm. Rest when you feel tired and try to keep to as regular a sleep pattern as you can. (without worrying or trying to adopt a sleep pattern that just isn’t right for our bodies – remembering your unique pattern is best)
Have I compromised my boundaries? If so stop and allow yourself space to reset boundaries, we often don’t stop to think about boundaries and even affirming them to ourselves helps put us back on track – and don’t forget to let others know what you need from them.
Is this mine? – Often we get so caught up with others stuff that we react to the energy they are putting out and the emotions we feel aren’t even our own. ( in this case detaching from what is causing the issue will help bring perspective.
Stop and Breathe! – A minute of conscious breathing can be all we need to ground ourselves in the physical and clarify just what is needed. It also quickly reduces our anxiety levels. (As long as you don’t cheat and allow the mind monkeys to talk over your tranquillity)
I have managed to readjust how I was reacting to the external and to bring a bit more clarity. so I am just off for a rest now.
I hope you manage to find your way through whatever is causing you unrest and can adopt this strategy or one similar to help make sure that burnout is a distant memory.
