The lessons, blessings and the changes...
On the 1st of August, 24 lovely ladies came together for our Crystal Healing & Sound event by the lake with myself and Tillie. Surrounded by nature, we welcomed in August and it was just pure bliss. The sun was shining, the energy was beautiful, and it really was the most wonderful way to open August. ✨
But I think somewhere within me I already knew August was going to be a month that was going to ask a lot from all of us.
And it certainly did.
I honestly don’t think I’ve spoken to one person who hasn’t felt August in some way. There have been so many emotions, ups and downs, past and present situations coming back around again and things we thought we had dealt with suddenly appearing in front of us.
Old beliefs, old patterns, old relationships and situations that we thought we had moved on from.
But they came back for a reason.
Sometimes we need the same situation to come around again until we finally look at it differently and say, no, I’m not doing this anymore. I’m choosing differently this time.
And I think that has been a huge part of August.
The Eclipse Energy
If you’ve been reading my blogs throughout August, you’ll know that I chose not to work with the eclipse energy, manifest under it or charge my crystals beneath it.
And there is a reason for that.
For me, eclipses are about the light and the dark. As the light disappears and darkness comes across, there can be this incredible stillness. The atmosphere changes. Animals can respond to that sudden change in light too, and you may notice the birds become quieter and the natural world around you feels different. It goes still.
It’s something you can feel in the air.
Quiet. Still. Almost suspended for a moment.
And I think nature shows us something within that.
For me, an eclipse isn’t an energy for birthing something new. It’s NOT a time when I want to be manifesting, charging crystals or trying to pull that energy towards me.
It’s a time to be still and observe.
To watch what is happening around us and, more importantly, what is happening within us.
Because eclipses can bring change. They can bring things back to the surface that perhaps we thought we had already dealt with — old situations, old beliefs, old patterns, relationships, emotions and parts of ourselves that need looking at again.
So rather than trying to do something with that energy, I prefer to allow it to pass and pay attention to what it is showing me.
What is changing?
What isn’t serving me anymore?
What keeps coming back around?
Why am I being shown this again?
Sometimes we don’t listen the first time. Sometimes we need to experience something again before we finally realise that we don’t want to keep repeating it.
And that is when we get to say no more.
For me, that is the lesson within eclipse season.
It’s not about birthing something new within the darkness. It’s about becoming still enough to see what the darkness is showing you, before you step back into the light.
The Same Things Keep Coming Back Until We Change
I know we talk a lot about releasing, and sometimes you probably think, how much more is there possibly left to release?
But the truth is, we are constantly changing.
We grow, we experience different things and we move through different stages of our lives. Sometimes the same old situations keep coming back until we finally respond to them differently.
That’s where the change happens.
Because if we keep responding from the same old beliefs, patterns and behaviours, we’re just going around on that Ferris wheel doing the same thing over and over again.
At some point, we have to decide to get off.
And I think August gave a lot of us an opportunity to do exactly that.
There was something really lovely about the way August started and ended for me.
We started the month with 24 lovely ladies by the lake, surrounded by nature, crystals and sound.
And then on the 29th of August, we started closing the month in a beautiful women’s circle with Charlie and 15 wonderful women.
Charlie runs women’s circles and wanted to bring her ladies into ABIM studio for a Crystal Workshop, to help them understand more about crystals, how to work with them within their own energetic field and how they can use them to support themselves in everyday life.
Fifteen women in one room, connecting, learning, feeling into the crystals and beginning to understand their own energy a little more.
And actually, it brings me back to something I feel is so important within healing.
Ultimately, this work is about you learning how to work with you.
We can go to healers. We can have treatments. We can attend circles, workshops and events. And sometimes we absolutely need that support and that time out for ourselves.
But nobody else can do all of the work for us.
A healer isn’t there to simply “sort you out”.
There comes a point where we have to start understanding ourselves too.
What triggers me?
Why does this situation make me feel the way it does?
Why am I uncomfortable saying what I actually need to say?
Why do I keep looking to somebody else to tell me what I should do?
Sometimes constantly looking outside of ourselves for those answers can become its own form of dependency.
And that’s something I think we need to acknowledge.
There is so much power in learning to sit quietly and listen to yourself.
Healing doesn’t always have to mean booking a treatment.
Sometimes it is walking in nature, putting your feet on the Earth, connecting with a tree, taking some deep breaths, sitting quietly without your phone or working with a crystal.
Sometimes it’s simply giving your nervous system a chance to settle.
Because one of the biggest things we can learn is what actually works for our own nervous system.
Not what works for somebody else.
What works for you.
And when we start regulating ourselves, understanding our triggers and addressing situations rather than staying silent because speaking up feels uncomfortable, that’s when something really begins to change.
That’s when the growth starts.
And Now September Comes… 🍂
And now here we are at the end of August.
✨ Closing August ✨
Closing August tonight with an online Zoom, I got to share the last moments of the month with my wonderful ladies for our Monthly Light/Soul Language event.
This is honestly one of my favourite events, where ladies from all over the world join me online for a beautiful download. Every month is different, this month felt a lot of heart held emotions and solar plexus.
We spoke about how August had been for each of us, and it was amazing how similar everyone's experiences had been — the ups and downs, the emotions and the changing energy throughout the month.
But what I loved hearing was how aware everyone had become of what they were feeling and, instead of ignoring it, they were making changes to help themselves move through it.
I was so proud of them. 🤍
It takes courage to speak up and say how you really feel. To connect with everyone in the room and be able to say, “This happened, and this is how it made me feel.”
That awareness is where we begin to understand ourselves, our triggers and what we need to change going forward.
Such a beautiful way to close August together. ✨💫
Thank you to everyone who joined me tonight, and to everyone who has attended a workshop or event throughout August. So grateful to have shared this month with you all. 🙏🏼🤍✨ 💫
You can already feel the season beginning to change. There’s a chill starting to come into the air, the evenings feel different and that real summer heat has started to disappear.
Autumn is coming.
I think it’s really important that we acknowledge the seasons because when we do, we also start to acknowledge the changes within ourselves.
Nature changes all the time and so do we.
So rather than looking back at August and only thinking about how difficult or emotional parts of it may have been, I actually want to say:
Thank you August.
Thank you for the lessons and the blessings.
Thank you for showing us what needed our attention and for bringing things back around that we needed to look at again.
Thank you for the changes, even the ones we didn’t necessarily ask for.
And thank you for reminding us that sometimes the answers we’re looking for aren’t outside of us at all.
They’re within us.
We just have to become quiet enough to hear them.
Because change means growth.
And staying stagnant in the same energy, repeating the same situations and expecting something different is never going to move us forward.
So as September arrives and we start moving towards autumn, take a moment to look back at August.
What did it show you?
What changed?
What came back around?
And what are you choosing not to take with you into September?
We don’t have to have everything worked out.
Sometimes it’s enough to recognise that something has changed within us and that we’re ready for something different.
So thank you August for the lessons, the blessings and even the difficult bits.
And hello September. 🍂✨
Let’s see what this new month brings.
Much love,
Natasha 🤍✨
Not simply what is happening in the sky, but what is happening within us because of it.
