Spiritual Support for Starting Over

Spiritual Support for Starting Over Starting over has never felt simple for me. At times it comes with excitement, other times with fear, and often with both at once. I have walked through new jobs, relationship shifts, moves, and complete reinventions of myself. Each time I discover how much easier it becomes when I lean into spiritual support.

Solar Return Reflection A Ritual of Alignment and Intention Each year, the Sun returns to the exact place it occupied at the moment of your birth.

A moment to pause, to witness your evolution, and to call in the frequency of your next becoming. I meet the moment with reverence and intention. My Solar Return Reflection is a living ritual, shaped by what the moment asks of me. It’s how I tend to my own unfolding.
