๐ซHi Reader,
๐ Can I be honest? Since Saturday, I've felt spatially disoriented.
Not "where are my keys" lost. More like "I'm doing everything right, so why does my body feel off-center?" lost. I kept missing things all week. And even with things going really well, a huge wave of doubt rolled in. ๐
๐ง๐ฝIt started at my Witch's Brew at For Heaven's Sake. I walked in and told my two lovely witches the truth: "I'm feeling wobbly and I don't know why. If you're feeling it too, there might be a reason."
One of them had been wide awake since 2:30 a.m. ๐
Here's the reason. Five planets are in retrograde right now. Venus is already moving backward, and Mercury joins her on Saturday, Oct 24. Retrogrades ask us to slow down, look back and review.
So if you've felt foggy, doubtful or a little off your path this week, you're not broken. You're being recalibrated.
โจ The Wrong Path That Was the Right Path
On Wednesday I was headed to a space clearing for a client who just moved into a new home and is selling her old one. The plan: meet her at the new place, do a tea ceremony, clear it, then go clear the old house that is being listed Friday.
๐๏ธI typed in an address, drove off, and pulled up to... her old house. Wrong address.
Except it wasn't. Her realtor happened to be there. So I walked the space with her, cleared out the old energy and set a fresh intention for whoever gets to live there next. Then I went to the new home, and we welcomed her new chapter with tea, house blessing and removing all energies not aligned with her hexagram. There was lots of laughter and ritual.
One "mistake." Two homes cleared. A brand-new connection made.
That's how this season works. The detour IS the path. The universe is always conspiring for you, even when your GPS says otherwise.
So whatever you're feeling right now, stay with it. ๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐ค
Don't rush to fix it or clear it away. Let it move all the way through you, so it doesn't get stuck. This is part of the work.
Retrograde season isn't asking you to have it all figured out. It's asking you to trust the turn.
If a friend has been feeling off-center this week too, forward this to her. She's not broken either.
๐ With Love and a Little Cosmic Mischief,
Thuy "twee"

๐ Let It Go With the Full Moon 10/26
The full moon is all about releasing. And with everything moving backward, this one is a beautiful time to let go of what's ready to go.
I have lots of rituals on my YouTube, but the one I'm drawn to for this full moon is my favorite easy one:
- Write down whatever you're releasing on a piece of paper.
- Light it with fire over the toilet.
- Flush it down the drain.
That's it. It's fun, it's easy and there's no mess.
What are you ready to flush, Reader?

๐ก Make Space for Your New Chapter
Here's something I tell my clients all the time: you can move your furniture around a hundred times, but you're still just rearranging it on top of old energy.
A space clearing is what makes the shift real. We clear out what's done, and we invite in what's next.
If you're stepping into something new this season (a new job, a new home, a new you), this is the perfect time to clear the way for it.

๐ Pull a Card for the Week
Honestly, this same wobbly energy is what inspired my new When in Doubt, Dance It Out oracle deck. I made it in two days.
โThe deck is available for sale now. The catch? Even I haven't seen the printed cards yet, because they take about 6 weeks to arrive. So order now if you want them by Christmas!
So I made something for you in the meantime. Sign up and your first card arrives right away. Then every Monday morning, you'll get a fresh card in your inbox with a little message and a dance to shake loose whatever you're holding. That's 44 weeks of dancing out the doubt, together.
