June News : Butterflies in the Storm
Hello my friends
Here we are in June, and this is the June newsletter. It may sound or feel different than some of the old ones, but some of it will be the same; I’m hoping that the newest people that have joined in this newsletter and the long-standing wonderful client base that I have, are all available to welcome in this new vibration
Announcing a new astrology offering at the end of this newsletter, so stay tuned !!!
In the meantime, pull up a chair, take a seat, open your heart, and I hope and pray that these words give you inspiration, understanding, wisdom, and help to navigate life in the current times.
The title of this newsletter came to me from my son‘s father while we were having a nice conversation about life… he was telling me the story about how in the most recent Saturday rainstorm of which we have had somewhere in the realm of 10 or 11 in a row, (edit; by time I got to this newsletter, we had two more!), he came out the next morning and found a beautiful butterfly, wings, soaked, and flat in his truck bed. He took the tired butterfly to a dry place and waited for the wings to dry, and little by little the beautiful insect began moving its wings slowly back and forth, but it stayed there longer getting its strength back. I told him I felt it was a metaphor and an apt title for my June newsletter and blog.
We have gone through a rough stormy (literally and energetically) period of the last few months, many of us feeling as if we had mini personal dark night of the soul and collectively we have seen that in the mirror of the worlds we live in, and our tribes of choice. Discussions either have been shared woes and fears and bewilderment or forums of how to deal with what seems to be a psychic and energetic illness of lack of hope. How will our wings dry if the storms never end, we say? You see, none of this will really get very cleared up until the garbage fire of personal goop that grows in each of our heads (and so, the collective too) gets dissipated through healing thought and resolve to dissolve into the CHOICE to evolve our consciousness and our own spiritual practices. To CHANGE as the winds that bring those storms move us to our newest timelines and directions. Literally and energetically.
As I write this on the full strawberry moon on June 11, in the sage astrology sign of Sagittarius, I wonder; How will we be brave enough to know that what we let go of will give us the power and productivity to see into the silent moonlit night, to feel our freedoms to be still and listen to our hearts to find out what, why, and who we are becoming in each of our stages and the “forced” changes that make us move, to newer ground and newer earthly purpose. I am seeing this “forced” changes everywhere in all examples. Discomfort is as it does. It churns us to betterment or wallow. Either is a choice.
The summer’s astrology is ripe for shifting or beginning the shift for us as the big benefic planet Jupiter moved for a year into Cancer where it is happy on June 9, and with the big change maker, Uranus, moving into the sign of Gemini on July 7th, there will be much in the way of conversing (it will retrograde for a bit at the end of this year into Taurus but will move back again in April ’26 and stay for 6 years) on how the changes will be made and how to speak to ourselves and act in the world. We are already seeing this in the conversations and concerns about AI and its positives and negatives and how to navigate this. There is a need to understand where we can become tied in a dark and ego chaotic way to the raging collective and where we are in the search for autonomy and LOVE in the center of this storm.
Uranus and Mars have recently squared and this explains this sudden clashing energy we see in the recent days. The new moon on June 25, just after the summers solstice, asks us to see how we wish things to unfold in the coming months on the nurturance of ourselves and the collective in a more loving and compassionate way. How can we “mother” the wound of separation that seems to be growing dangerously larger with the speed of light. We must not let this or the negative energy that social media expedites, or the rise in the temptation to let (AI/transhumanism) take our soul’s true purpose which is to love and love BIG and grow in self and purpose though mind AND matter.
These are big, beautiful times that ask us to rise to ourselves and other in what we see is - How can I serve my inner healing and inner search in time with the cause of my living here? Where is the light guiding me? And work to find methods (healing, therapy, movement, meditation, play, creating) to get to new ways of BEING and to truly UNDERSTAND what that light IS.
This is why I see us all as the butterfly in the storm. We are in a chrysalis stage. All of us at different forks in the road of our souls developments (the good, the bad, the ugly, the beautiful) and we must let our wings of beauty develop, despite the storms we fly though, and allow a good soul, or souls, to pick us up and dry our lovely wings in the light so we can land upon the earth and pollinate it with beauty and grace and joy. To fly free with choice in the winds of change inherent in our glorious and brief time here.
Now how we do this? Find out who you are NOW, not yesterday or 2 or 4 or 5 or 10 years ago. For now and within in intuitive response to that question, our guides and angels and our Higher Self will lead that way.
Here I am trying my best to speak to that Light for you all and do my part and create and make the best recipes of Joy and Grace and Wisdom and humor to guide, teach, expand and heal to the best of my ability. I type at the speed of a sloth in the road so it takes me a hot minute to get this all out, but damned if I don’t push push push to do it : )
Onto a new offering!
Excited to announce a new type of service on the shop page of the website.
Natal Birth Chart analysis and reading
This is for anyone who wants a starters understanding in laymen’s terms of your birth chart, and for those who are just new to learning what a birth chart is and wanting to know more about theirs. Well, what even is a birth chart? Your birth chart is where ALL the planets where on the day, month, hour and place where you where born, NOT just your sun sign. For example, I am a Sagittarius sun, but we have MUCH more to us than that. A birth chart knowledge helps us understand a cosmic astrology blueprint of our strengths and weaknesses and things we come to do, be, heal and learn in our life. It’s fun and fascinating!
Now to the business of my calendar, these will be conducted in a way according to my current regular schedule, so if you want one done, you will purchase and forward your receipt to me stating your birth MONTH / DAY / YEAR / TIME OF DAY / LOCATION OF BIRTH
* EXAMPLE: 8/9/1993 4:05 am Pittsburgh PA. USA
A half hour zoom is then scheduled and sent for us to talk and for me to help you understand more in depth your full chart. Scheduling could take a bit of time but I will let you know! Questions? Ask here.
A chart analysis is $175. Half hour Zoom included.

So in closing….. I ask that you take time over this summer to embark on a the quest for knowledge AND fun. For nature AND silence. For family AND friends. For community AND self. For the reverence for all life and your place in the place of all things.
And a Prayer ;
Lord make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light
Where there is sadness, joy
O Divine master, grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love
For it is in giving that we receive
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it is in dying that we are born unto eternal life.
Amen (The Prayer of St. Francis)
I love you,
With Grace,
Sarah
