Welcome back to another edition of our monthly newsletter!  

After the intensity of recent months, May thankfully feels like a gentle invitation - a chance to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters to you. It’s a moment to honour the shifts you’ve already made and to lovingly choose what you want to carry forward.

Remember always that you already have everything you need inside. This month is about curating that inner world, tuning into your own rhythm, and embracing the next step on your unique journey.

We hope the insights and inspiration ahead support you in feeling grounded, empowered, and open to the magic unfolding within and around you.

Here’s to a May filled with grace and growth.

In Celestial Compass, we chart the cosmic currents for the month ahead. Dive into a celestial sea of moon cycles, planetary dances, and stellar surprises that may shape your journey. Whether you're a seasoned stargazer or a curious cosmic novice, our astrological forecast illuminates the path, helping you navigate the ebb and flow of celestial energies. Let the stars guide you as you curate your month's adventures!

In Eventful Encounters, we highlight intriguing online and in-person events—both free and paid—that deserve your attention. Each month, we’ll share our recommendations, including what makes these events unique, any personal experiences we have, and why you might want to consider attending. Whether it’s a quirky workshop or a thought-provoking seminar, we’re here to help you discover opportunities that enrich your journey!

April was a whirlwind! The Food Revolution Summit has just wrapped up and wow, how much did we all learn! Keep an eye out, as I'm sure all that we learnt will be making appearances in our blogs and social media soon. And today marks the start of The Wild Ones. Are you as excited as we are? If you missed our heads-up, you’ll find all the details in this newsletter [link here to #12 10th April].

Looking ahead, don’t forget the Mind Body Spirit Festival in London from 23rd–26th May. It’s always a highlight, packed with ideas, practices and connections for your unique Toolbelt for Life. 

Here are even more eventful encounters we think you’ll want to explore this month…
